title: Solvation parameters Part 1. Mutual improvements of several approaches and determination of two first sets of optimized values.
abstract: An improvement in the characterization and the determination of the solvation parameters allows, not only a better knowledge of solutions, but also of some biological phenomena. In this paper, we test several published data and approaches in the field of solubility and solvation parameters in two ways: (i) the mutual independence of the parameters and (ii) their ability to take into account recently published gas-liquid chromatographic data. From this enquiry it arises that the most suitable published values are those of Abraham concerning 314 solutes. It also arises that the parameters of dispersion and orientation of this published data set are appreciably improved using two simple equations. In addition, a new set of optimized values for 133 solutes is given, by derivation from retention indices in gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) on five selected stationary phases, published by Kováts and co-workers and in the present study. The two sets have a total of 373 defined compounds.
