11.4.1McReynolds’ Constants
The Kovats retention |
indices |
|
(R.I.) indicate where compounds will appear on a chromatogram with |
|||||
respect to unbranched alkanes injected with the sample. By definition, the R.I. for pentane is 500, |
|
|||||||
for hexane is 600, for heptane is 700, and so on, regardless of the column used or the operating |
|
|||||||
conditions, although the exact conditions and column must be specified, such as liquid loading, |
|
|
||||||
particular support used, and any pretreatment. For example, suppose that on a 20% squalane column |
|
|||||||
at 100 C, the retention times for hexane, benzene, and octane are found to be 15, 16, and 25 min, |
|
|||||||
respectively. On a graph of |
(naperianlntlogarithmR |
of the adjusted |
retention |
time) of the |
alkanes |
|
||
versus their retention indices, a R.I. of 653 for benzene is read off the graph. The number 653 for |
||||||||
benzene (see last line of Table 11.13 in |
the column headed “1” under “Reference compounds”) |
|
||||||
means that it elutes halfway between hexane and heptane on a logarithmic time scale. If the exper- |
|
|
||||||
iment is repeated with a dinonyl phthalate column, the R.I for benzene is found to be 736 (lying |
|
|||||||
between heptane and octane), which implies that dinonyl phthalate will retard benzene slightly more |
|
|
||||||
than squalane will; that is, dinonyl phthalate is slightly more polar than squalane by |
units |
I 83 |
||||||
(the entry in Table 11.13 for dinonyl phthalate in the column headed “1” under “Reference com- |
|
|||||||
pounds”). The difference gives a measure |
of solute-solvent interaction due to all intermolecular |
|
||||||
forces other than London dispersion forces. The latter are the principal solute-solvent effects with |
|
|||||||
squalane. |
