Conclusions:
Henry's law constant (from water solubility and vapour pressure) for n-undecanal: 64.3 Pa*m^3/mol at 20°C
Executive summary:

The Henry's Law constant (HLC) of n-undecanal was calculated using two different approaches:

Estimation of Henry's law constant from water solubility, molecular weight and vapour pressure:

- Water solubility: 12 mg/L at 20 °C according to AQURA (2010). With a molecular weight of 170.30 g/mol, this results in a value of 0.7046 mol/m^3.

- Vapour pressure: 38 Pa at 20 °C (LAUS, 2010)

==>Henry's law constant = VP/WS = 53.9 Pa*m^3/mol at 20°C

Estimation of Henry's law constant based on the Bond Estimation Method implemented in HENRYWIN v3.20 (US EPA EPI Suite v. 4.11; US EPA):

==>Henry´s law constant = 64.3 Pa*m^3/mol at 20°C

==>Henry´s law constant = 38 Pa*m^3/mol at 12°C (interpolated from HENRYWIN estimates dependent on T) used for environmental risk assessment

Conclusion:

The value calculated using the Bond Estimation Method implemented in HENRYWIN v.3.20 is very close to the value calculated from water solubility and vapour pressure. The QSAR derived value is thus corroborated by the value derived from experimental study results. The value for Henry's law constant of 64.3 Pa*m^3/mol at 20°C derived from bond estimation method is taken as the key value for chemical safety assessment. For derivation of PNEC_soil via EPM, the value of 38 Pa*m^3/mol at 12°C (interpolated from HENRYWIN estimates dependent on T) is used for calculation.

Concluding, n-undecanal is of relevant volatility with respect to environmental waters and moist soil.
