The Kováts retention index is one of the most popular descriptors of the performance of organic compounds in gas chromatography (GC). The mathematical modeling of this index is an interesting and open problem in analytical chemistry. In this paper, two models for the prediction of the Kováts retention index are presented. Topologic, topographic and quantum-chemical descriptors were used as structural...
