Analysis of the equations for the temperature dependence of the retention index. II. Physico-chemical meaning of the parameters.

A general expression for the meaning of various parameters from the retention index-temperature equations was found. This is a linear combination of two solute dependent factors consisting of differences of enthalpies and respective entropies of solution, between the solute and the reference inferior n-alkane. The particular coefficients for each parameter are stationary phase dependent factors. They were calculated from methylene contributions to the thermodynamic functions of solution in SE-30 and Carbowax-20M, revealing the influence of the used temperature range. A short review of structural influences on dI/dT is included.

Analysis of the equations for the temperature dependence of the retention index. I. Relation between equations.

The relation between the parameters of several equations for the retention index temperature dependence was established, taking the hyperbola deduced from the retention theory as starting point. The transformation factors depend only on methylene contributions to the thermodynamic functions of solution and temperature. Their evolution with the mean temperature of the range was illustrated for SE-30 and Carbowax-20M glass capillary columns. On this basis the post-run standardisation of dI/dT values at a reference mean temperature is possible. Examples and statistical correlation between series of parameters from different equations for perfumery solutes were shown.
