Summary
Using a rapid chemometric methodology to determine the separation factor, α, at different temperatures, Gibbs Helmholtz parameters (Δ (ΔH), Δ (ΔS), Δ (ΔG)) of two adjacent benodiazepines on a chromatogram were obtained from ln α versus T−1 plots. A temperature dependent reversal of the elution order was studied and the mobile phase composition and column temperature were optimized to obtain the best separation. A flow rate of 0.80 ml min−1 with 52.6% methanol in the methanol-water mixture and a column temperature of 48°C gave the most efficient separation of ten benzodiazepines.
