We studied the regularities of gas-chromatographic retention indices of aliphatic enyne alcohols containing С=С and С[identical to]С bonds in the molecule (14 secondary and two tertiary homologues) on standard nonpolar polydimethylsiloxane stationary phases, which have not been characterized in sufficient detail earlier. Using homologous increments of retention indices i.sub.RI = RI - 100x, where Ñ = int(M/14), Ð is the molecular weight number, and 14 is the mass number of the CH.sub.2 homological difference, one can compare data for structural analogs, including alkanols, alkenols, and alkynols. The features of comparing i.sub.RI values for compounds belonging to different homologous groups y [identical to] M(mod14), for example, C.sub.nH.sub.2n+2O (y = 4), C.sub.nH.sub.2nO (y = 2), C.sub.nH.sub.2n-2O (y = 0), and C.sub.nH.sub.2n-4O (y = 12), are discussed. The main feature is that when the boundary value of y = 0 is passed, the relation between the parameter x and the number of carbon atoms in the molecule changes due to an increase in the formal unsaturation (the condition n = x - 1 is replaced by the condition n = x). Therefore, in the latter case, 100 should be subtracted from the i.sub.RI homologous increments to compare them with the data for structural analogs of other series. Taking this correction into account, we found that the i.sub.RI values for secondary enyne alcohols (12 ± 16) and previously characterized sec-alkynols (23 ± 21) virtually coincide, and for tertiary enyne alcohols, they are consistent with the data for all considered groups of structural analogues (alkanols, alkenols, and alkynols)., Author(s): I.
