Thin-layer chromatography of sulphonamides on silica gel G and polyamide layers by means of a polar mobile phase.

A thin-layer chromatographic system based on polyamide or silica gel G layers and an aqueous mobile phase was used for the separation of a series of sulphonamides. A linear relationship between RM values on polyamide layers and the acetone concentration in the mobile phase allowed the calculation of extrapolated RM values. The influence of the nature of the stationary phase on the migration of compounds is discussed.

Rm values of phenols. Their relationship with log P values and activity.

The experimental Rm values for a series of phenols were obtained by a reversed-phase TLC system. The extrapolation from a range of linear relationship between experimental Rm values and acetone concentration provided a set of extrapolated Rm values. This were used for studying the relationship between structure and activity in vitro and in vivo. The possibility to obtain by means of the extrapolation technique the Rm values in a standard system for serveral series of chemotherapeutic agents is pointed out.

Rm values of steroids as an expression of their lipophilic character in structure-activity studies.

The chromatographic Rm values of three series of steroids were determined by means of a reversed-phase system. The Rm values at 45% acetone in the mobile phase were shown to be correlated with the partition coefficients in an ether-water system. However, an almost equally good correlation was found when using extrapolated Rm values. The extrapolation technique could provide a standard system. The relationship between biological data and Rm values pointed out the important role of the lipophilic character in regulating the activity of steroids. In particular, the dependence of protein binding absorption and biotransformation on lipophilic character might strongly influence the availability of steroids at the site of action.
