Summary
The logarithm of capacity ratios (logk’) of alkanes, alkyl alcohols, alkylbenzenes, halogenated benzenes and polyaromatic hydrocarbons are measured in reversedphase liquid chromatography at several temperatures using an octadecyl-bonded silica gel as the packing and acetonitrile/water mixtures as the eluent.
The Δ (logk’) values are related to their van der Waals volumes, pi-energy and hydrogen-bonding energy effects and their enthalpies. The difference between the observed capacity ratios and the capacity ratios predicted from van der Waals volumes, pi-energy and hydrogen-bonding energy effects can be explained due to enthalpy effect of larger molecular size compounds.
