Abstract

This paper reports on a comparative analysis of the linear correlation equations relating the gas-chromatographic retention indices (RI) of several groups of isomeric organic compounds to the topological (Wiener and Hosoya indices) and dynamic (intramolecular energies estimated by molecular dynamic methods and the vibrational components of this energy estimated with simple models) parameters of molecules. It is shown that the choice of one of these parameters does not ensure the best approximation to RI, since the results depend on the chemical nature of substances. Correlations between all of the above quantities have been established. The correlations serve as a basis for physicochemical interpretation of the topological parameters of molecules as quantities proportional to the intramolecular vibrational and rotation energies.
