* All pairs whose M numbers differ by 15 units or less are miscible in all proportions at 15C. Each pair whose M number difference is 16 has a critical solution
temperature between 25 and 75C, approximately 50C preferably. A difference of 17 or more corresponds to immiscibility or to a critical solution temperature

APPENDIX II
in NPC. Table II.l lists polarity values P' for 46 solvents. These polarity values
range from P' = 0 for a non-polar solvent like pentane to P' = 10.2 for the
very polar solvent water. Relative solvent strength values for some of these
solvents are also listed in Table II.l for use in normal-phase (alumina, silica)
chromatography. See also Figs. 6.4 (reversed-phase), 6.23, and 6.24 (normal
phase).
Selectivity depends both on solvent polarity and the position of a solvent
in the solvent-selectivity triangle (Fig. 2.7). The latter classification of solvent
selectivity is based on the interaction of the solvent with sample molecules
as a dipole, an acid, or a base. Table II.2 summarizes these selectivity interactions (x = n*f,, a/S, fS,) for a number of common solvents. The x values of
Table II.2 are normalized in terms of solvent polarity, so if different strong
solvents B are diluted with a weaker solvent A to give mobile phases A/B of
the same polarity and solvent strength, solvent selectivity will be determined
mainly by the selectivity factors x of Table II.2. By choosing solvents with
very different selectivity factors from Table II.2, mobile-phase selectivity can
be varied significantly.
The first column of values in Table II.2 (JC = ir*fX) gives the fractional
polarity of the solvent due to dipole interactions, the second column (x = a/
2) gives the fractional polarity due to the acidity of the solvent, and the third
column (x = fZ) gives the fractional polarity due to solvent basicity. For
example, among the alcohol solvents, methanol receives 28% of its polarity
from its dipole, 43% from its acidity, and 29% from its basicity. Similarly,
among the amine solvents, triethylamine has 16% of its polarity from its dipole,
and 84% from its basicity; it has no acidity for Chromatographie separation.
