Passive sampling technology has been considered as a promising tool to measure the concentration of environmental contaminants. With this technology, sampling rate (Rₛ) is an important parameter. However, as experimental methods employed to obtain the Rₛ value of a given compound were time-consuming, laborious, and expensive. A cost-effective method for deriving Rₛ is urgent. In addition, considering the great dependence of Rₛ value on water matrix properties, the laboratory measured Rₛ may not be a good alternative for field Rₛ. Thus, obtaining the field Rₛ is very necessary. In this study, a multiparameter quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model was constructed for predicting the field Rₛ of 91 polar to semi-polar organic compounds. The determination coefficient (R²Tᵣₐᵢₙ), leave-one-out cross-validated coefficient (Q²LOO), bootstrap coefficient (Q²BOOT), and root mean square error (RMSETᵣₐᵢₙ) of the training set were 0.772, 0.706, 0.769, and 0.230, respectively, while the external validation coefficient (Q²EXT) and RMSEEXT of the validation set were 0.641 and 0.253, respectively. According to the acceptable criteria (Q² > 0.600, R² > 0.700), the model had good robustness, goodness-of-fit, and predictive performances. Therefore, we could use the model to fill the data gap for substances within the applicability domain on their missing Rₛ value.
