A model developed to predict aqueous solubility at different temperatures has been proposed based on quantitative structure–property relationships (QSPR) methodology. The prediction consists of two steps. The first one predicts the value of k parameter in the linear equation lgSw=kT+c, where Sw is the value of solubility and T is the value of temperature. The second step uses Random Forest technique to create high-efficiency QSPR model. The performance of the model is assessed using cross-validation and external test set prediction. Predictive capacity of developed model is compared with COSMO-RS approximation, which has quantum chemical and thermodynamic foundations. The comparison shows slightly better prediction ability for the QSPR model presented in this publication.
