High-performance liquid chromatography of chalcones: Quantitative structure-retention relationships using partial least-squares (PLS) modeling

Abstract

SummaryIn this study, the multivariate partial least squares projections to latent structures (PLS) technique was used for modeling the RP-HPLC retention data of 17 chalcones, which were determined with methanol-water mobile phases of different compositions. The PLS model was based on molecular descriptors which can be calculated for any compound utilizing only the knowledge of its molecular structure. The PLS analysis resuited in a model with the following statistics: r = 0.976, Q = 0.933, s = 0.076, and F = 43.63. The adequacy of the developed model was assessed by means of crossvalidation and also, by PLS modeling of the retention data of several chalcones reported by Walczak et al. [J. Chromatogr. 353, 123, (1986)], which were obtained using stationary phases of different polarity (-NHa, DIOL, -CN, ODS, C8). The structural interpretation of the developed PLS model was accomplished by means of comparative correlations between the nonempirical descriptors used in the model and the solvation parameters developed by Abraham. The results obtained in this work provides evidence for the great potential of the topological approach for the development of quantitative structure-retention relationship (QSRR) models.

Simultaneous Effect of Organic Modifier and Physicochemical Parameters of Barbiturates on their Retention on a Narrow-Bore PGC Column. Part 2

“…These linear QSRR methods have been recently employed in chromatography for the investigation of the molecular mechanism of separation, 13 for the classification of modern stationary phases, 14 for structure-retention relationship study in HPLC 15 and in GC, 16,17 and for the elucidation of the correlation between retention and biological activity. 18 Stepwise regression analysis (SRA) is an up-to-date version of multivariate linear regression analysis. In the traditional multivariate regression analysis, the presence of independent variables that exert no significant influence on the dependent variable decreases the significance level of the independent variables that significantly influence the dependent variable.…”

Proteomics of Collagen Peptides: A Method to Reveal Minor Changes in Post‐Translationally Modified Collagen by HPLC and Capillary Electrophoresis

“…[1] These methods have been recently employed in chromatography for the investigation of the molecular mechanism of separation, [2] for the classification of modern stationary phases, [3] for quantitative structure-retention relationship studies in HPLC [4] and in GC, [5,6] and for the correlation of the retention behavior and biological activity. [7] In protein chemistry peptide mapping, both by chromatographic and electromigration methods, is a widely applied approach. [8] Unfortunately, current separation methods do not exhibit sufficient selectivity to offer baseline separations in complex peptide mixtures.…”
