The solvation parameter model uses five system independent descriptors to characterize compound properties defined as excess molar refraction, E, dipolarity/polarizability, S, hydrogen-bond acidity, A, hydrogen-bond basicity, B, and the gas-liquid partition constant at 25 °C on n-hexadecane, L, to model transfer properties in gas-condensed phase biphasic systems. The E descriptor for compounds liquid at 20 °C is available by calculation using a refractive index value while E for solid compounds at 20 °C and the S, A, B, and L descriptors are determined by experiment. As a single-technique approach, it is shown that with up to 20 retention factor measurements on four columns comprising a poly(siloxane) containing methyloctyl or dimethyldiphenylsiloxane monomers (SPB-Octyl or HP-5), a poly(siloxane) containing methyltrifluoropropylsiloxane monomers (Rtx-OPP or DB-210), a poly(siloxane) containing bis(cyanopropylsiloxane) monomers (HP-88 or SGE BPX-90), and a poly(ethylene glycol) stationary phase (DB-WAXetr or HP-INNOWAX) are suitable for assigning the S, A, and L descriptors. Using the descriptors in the updated WSU compound descriptor database as target values the average absolute error in the descriptor assignments for 52 varied compounds in the temperature range 60-140 °C was 0.072 for E, 0.016 for S, 0.008 for A, and 0.022 for L corresponding to 30 %, 3.5 %, and 0.6 % as a relative average absolute error for E, S, and L, respectively. For the higher temperature range of 160-240 °C and 34 varied compounds that are liquid at 20 °C the average absolute error for the S, A and L descriptors was 0.026, 0.020, and 0.031, respectively, with the largest relative average absolute error for S of 3.2 % (< 1 % for the L descriptor). For 35 varied compounds that are solid at 20 °C the relative absolute error for the E, S, A, and L descriptors in the higher temperature range was 0.068, 0.035, 0.020, and 0.020, respectively, with a relative average absolute error for E (6.5 %), S (3.5 %) and L (0.88 %). The S, A, and L descriptor can be accurately assigned on the four-column system over a wide temperature range. The E descriptor for solid compounds at 20 °C exhibits greater variability than desirable. The B descriptor cannot be assigned by the four-column system, which lack hydrogen-bond acid functional groups, and is only poorly assigned on the weak hydrogen-bond acid ionic liquid column SLB-IL100.
