Abstract
The review is mainly focused on application of thin layer chromatography (TLC) as simple, rapid and inexpensive method for lipophilicity assessment. Among separation techniques, TLC is still one of the most popular for lipophilicity measurement. The principles and methodology of Quantitative Structure Retention Relationship (QSRR) employed to lipophilicity prediction from retention data are presented. Moreover, applications of TLC retention constants in Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) studies were critically overviewed. The paper concerns also bioautography as a TLC method complementary to QSAR studies. In the article, the advantages and limitations of well established and less common planar chromatography modes applied for drug discovery process were discussed.
