In the present work, influence of solvent strength of aqueous phase for two frequently-used biphasic solvent system in partition coefficient (K) of selected solutes were mainly studied, and a new method for selection of biphasic solvent system was proposed for high-speed countercurrent chromatographic separations. Solvent strength was referred to the typical theory that was deeply investigated in conventional reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Experimental results showed that a linear relationship between log(K) of solutes and apparent content of methanol in biphasic solvent system was found for the biphasic solvent system hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (HEMWat), which was consistent with the relationship between real content and apparent content of methanol in this system. Meanwhile, a quadratic relationship was found between log(K) of solutes and apparent content of methanol in biphasic solvent system chloroform-methanol-water (ChMWat), in which it was found that the relationship between real content and apparent content of methanol in this system was also quadratic. In addition, a visual and simple method was proposed to select a suitable biphasic solvent system for separation of target compounds by high-speed countercurrent chromatography with isocratic elution, which saves a lot of manpower and material resources in order to find a suitable two-solvent system. An optimal biphasic solvent system for isolation of several tested compounds by high-speed countercurrent chromatography was easily obtained using our proposed method.
