HPLC provides a user's friendly, rapid, and compound sparing methodology, which is successfully applied to determine drug lipophilicity. Under suitable chromatographic conditions isocratic and extrapolated retention factors correlate well with octanol-water partition or distribution coefficients. The present review provides an overview of the stationary and mobile phases, which are preferably used for lipophilicity assessment mainly in the case of basic compounds. Difficulties raised by the interference of silanophilic interactions in the partition mechanism, and the ways proposed to face this problem are discussed. Attention has been given to the extrapolation procedure and the standardization of conditions to obtain 1:1 correlation between extrapolated retention factors and logP or logD. Other chromatographic indices encoding information on the lipophilic behavior are briefly presented. A separate section refers to recent advances in IAM Chromatography, its similarities/dissimilarities with reversed phase HPLC and the octanol-water system, as well as its potential to mimic specific interactions with phospholipids.
