J. Planar Chromatogr. 24, 348-351 (2011). Study of the lipophilicity and specific hydrophobic surface area of fourteen 1,3-benzoxazol-2(3H)-ones substituted in the benzene ring (fluoro-, chloro-, bromo-, dibromo-, amino-, and nitro-derivatives). TLC on RP-18 with methanol - water, methanol - aminoacetic acid buffer pH 2.7, and methanol - aminoacetic acid buffer pH 11.6. The concentration of methanol in the mobile phase ranged from 30-90 % in all cases. Detection under UV 254 nm. The linear correlation between the volume fraction of methanol and values over a limited range were established with good correlation coefficients (r > 0.98). The obtained results were compared with calculated partition coefficients.
