Prediction of quantitative calibration factors of some organic compounds in gas chromatography.
A quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) methodology that involves multilinear (Hansch-type) and nonlinear (radial basis function neural network (RBFNN)) approaches was performed to correlate the quantitative molar calibration factors (f(M)) of 140 organic compounds against structural factors. The statistical characteristics provided by the multiple linear model (R(2) = 0.963; RMS = 0.089; AARD = 3.86% for test set) indicated satisfactory stability and predictive ability, while the predictive ability of the RBFNN model is somewhat superior (R(2) = 0.983; RMS = 0.075; AARD = 3.19% for test set). The multilinear model provided some insight into the main structure factors that modulate the quantitative calibration factor of the investigated compounds.
