The separation and chromatographic behaviour of five ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitors and their four active metabolites were investigated by normal-phase thin-layer chromatography on silica using several mono- and binary non-aqueous solvent systems. The linear relationship between the RM values and the composition of employed mobile phase was obtained. The hydrophobicity parameters 0M R and C0 were determined from the regression data of the plots, analogous to reversed-phase chromatography. The chromatographically obtained hydrophobicity parameters were correlated with the calculated log P values. The current results were correlated with the lipophilicity of the studied ACE inhibitors and their metabolites, previously estimated by reversed-phase chromatography.

The chromatographic behaviour of some ACE inhibitors and their active metabolites was examined under conditions of reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography on RP-18 silica using water-methanol, water-ethanol and water-acetone as binary solvent systems. The relationship between the R M values and the concentration of organic modifier in the mobile phases was linear. It was found that an increase in the content of the organicmodifier in the employed solvent systems led to a decrease of the R M values, i.e., of the retention. Also, the more hydrophobic compounds had a longer retention. Based on regression analysis of the plots, the lipophilicity parameters R M 0 and c 0 were calculated. The chromatographically obtained lipophilicity parameters were correlated with the calculated log P values.
