Rapid, low pressure, and simultaneous ion chromatography of common inorganic anions and cations on short permanently coated monolithic columns

Short permanently coated reversed-phase silica based monolithic columns have been investigated for the rapid separation of inorganic anions and cations. One 2.5 x 0.46 cm column was permanently coated with didodecyldimethylammonium (DDAB), for anion analysis; and a second 5.0 x 0.46 cm column was coated with dioctylsulphosuccinnate (DOSS), for cation analysis. The use of a single combined eluent of 2.5 mM phthalate/1.5 mM ethylenediamine, at flow rates of between 4.0 and 8.0 mL/min, resulted in the rapid separation of 8 anions (in under 100 s) and 5 cations (in under 100 s) on the above columns when used individually, with detection limits for common anions ranging from approximately 0.25 to 5 mg/L, and between 2.5 and 50 mg/L for alkaline earth metals, by direct and indirect conductivity detection, respectively. However, with both columns subsequently connected in parallel, with the eluent delivered using a flow splitter from a single isocratic pump, the simultaneous analysis of anions and cations was also possible, based on a single conductivity detector. The potential of this system for the rapid, complete screening of water samples for multiple common anions and cations is shown.

Simultaneous Determination of Inorganic Anions and Organic Acids in Environmental Samples by Capillary Zone Electrophoresis with Indirect UV Detection

Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with indirect UV detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of inorganic anions and organic acids in environmental samples. Various aromatic acids (benzoic, phthalic, trimellitic, and pyromellitic acids) were evaluated as background electrolytes (BGEs) to give high resolution and detection sensitivity. Co-electroosmotic conditions such as the concentration of BGE, electrolyte pH, and EOF modifier were systematically investigated. Three inorganic anions and ten organic acids were determined simultaneously in 10 min using an electrolyte containing 10 mM phthalic acid, 0.5 mM myristyltrimethylammonium bromide (MTAB), and 5% methanol (MeOH) (v/v) at pH 5.60. Linear plots for the test solutes were obtained in the concentration range 0.01–1.0 mM with detection limits in the range 5–30 μM. The proposed method was successfully demonstrated for the determination of inorganic anions and organic acids in natural water, soil, and plant extracts after direct sample injection.

Determination of various inorganic anions and organic acids in the atmospheric particulate matter using capillary zone electrophoresis with indirect UV detection

Capillary zone electrophoresis with indirect UV detection was developed for the simultaneous analysis of inorganic anions and organic acids using a mixed solution of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid and cetyltrimethylammonium hydroxide as the background electrolyte (BGE). The parameters which influence the separation, such as indirect UV detection wavelength, BGE conditions, applied voltage and extraction conditions were investigated. Thirteen inorganic anions and organic acids were detected within 20 min. The calibration curves of each analyte were linear with correlation coefficients greater than 0.991. The relative standard deviations (n = 10) of the peak areas ranged from 0.6% to 3.3%. The detection limits for these species ranged from 0.4 to 1.4 mg/L at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The recovery rate of each analyte was more than 80% under optimised extraction conditions, except for nitrite. The proposed method was applied towards the analysis of inorganic anions and organic acids in the atmospheric particulate matter using an Andersen sampler. The particle size of the particulate matter was determined, but not the size of the anions.

Novel imidazolium stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography

A new imidazolium anion-exchange phase immobilized on silica is synthesized. HPLC separations of common inorganic anions (IO3-, Cl-, NO2-, Br-, NO3-, I-, SCN-) have been performed using a HPLC column (200 mm x 4.6 mm I.D.) packed with this stationary phase, with a phosphate buffer solution as the mobile phase and UV detection at 200 nm. The effects of pH and concentration of eluent on the separation of anions have been studied. Chromatographic parameters are calculated and the results show that the new stationary phase is of significant potential for the analysis of these anions. Successful separations of some ordinary organic anions have also been achieved with the said stationary phase. Meaningfully, organic and inorganic anions can be determined simultaneously and satisfactorily with several neutral compounds using the column. The separation of some organic compounds including hydroxybenzenes, bases and amines by this stationary phase with only water as the eluent has been investigated.     

New stationary phase for anion-exchange chromatography

This work describes the preparation of an anion-exchange phase based on silica, using a two-step modification process. First, 10 microm Davisil silica particles were silanized with chloropropyltrimethoxysilane to yield chloropropyl silica. The modified silica was then reacted with pyridine to produce positively charged propylpyridinium groups on the surface, the anion-exchange sites. The phase was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and infrared and solid state 13C and 29Si NMR spectroscopies. HPLC separations of common inorganic anions, including chloride, nitrite, bromide and nitrate, were performed using 150 x 3.9 HPLC columns packed with the phase, using a phthalate buffer solution as mobile phase with non-suppressed conductivity detection. Efficiency and resolution were calculated and the results show that the new phase has significant promise for the analysis of these anions in environmental samples.

Polymer-solvent interaction parameters in polymer solutions at high polymer concentrations

Ion chromatography (IC) is widely used for the compliance monitoring of common inorganic anions in drinking water. However, there has recently been considerable interest in the development of IC methods to meet regulatory requirements for analytes other than common inorganic anions, including disinfection byproduct anions, perchlorate, and haloacetic acids. Many of these new methods require the use of large injection volumes, high capacity columns and analyte specific detection schemes, such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry or postcolumn reaction with UV-Vis detection, in order to meet current regulatory objectives. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is a detection technique that is particularly suitable for the analysis of permanently ionized or polar, ionizable compounds. The combination of IC with MS detection is emerging as an important tool for the analysis of ionic compounds in drinking water, as it provides increased specificity and sensitivity compared to conductivity detection. This paper reports on the application of IC-ESI-MS for the confirmation and quantitation of environmentally significant contaminants, i.e. compounds with adverse health effects which are either regulated or being considered for regulation, such as bromate, perchlorate, haloacetic acids, and selenium species, in various water samples.     

Efficient separation of acetate and formate by ion chromatography: application to air samples in a cultural heritage environment

A method for the separation of acetate and formate anions by ion chromatography has been optimized under various measurement conditions (e.g. the composition of the mobile phase, and the flow rate of the eluent). For this purpose, two different analytical columns were examined: the IonPac AS14 (250 mm x 4 mm i.d.; designed mostly for the separation of inorganic anions) and the Allsep A-2 (150 mm x 4.6 mm i.d.; designed for the separation of low-molecular mass organic acids). However, nearly baseline separation of acetate and formate has been found on each column using the following conditions: (i) IonPac AS14 column and 2.0 mM Na2B4O7 solution as an eluent with a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min, or (ii) Allsep A-2 column and an eluent containing a mixture of 1.2 mM Na2CO3 plus 1.5 mM NaHCO3 with a flow rate of 1.3 ml/min. Additionally, the separation of fluoride from acetate and formate on both columns was studied. On the IonPac AS14 column it was possible to separate all three investigated anions. However, on the Allsep A-2 column, when the concentration of fluoride was comparable to, or higher than acetate, it was impossible to achieve good separation of these two anions, even using the optimized elution procedure. Therefore, the measurements of real samples were carried out with the use of IonPac AS14 column. The concentrations of acetate and formate have been determined in the air samples of the Cathedral of Cologne (Germany), after sampling the corresponding acids by passive diffusion tubes. Average concentrations of 122 and 9 microg/m(3) for acetic and formic acids were found, respectively, inside the Cathedral and in a depot with medieval stained glass panels.     

Retention of anions on silica-based metalloporphyrin stationary phases.

The silica-based Fe(III)-protoporphyrin and Zn-tetraphenylporphyrin stationary phases were examined for the HPLC separation of anions. The retention of nine common inorganic anions as well as benzoate anion (BA) and its hydroxy analogues (HBA) was examined using tartrate, acetate, and succinate eluents. The retention factors of inorganic anions on the FeProP stationary phase were in the order Cl- < NO3- < ClO4- < I- < SCN- and for organic anions benzoate < p-hydroxybenzoate < m-hydoxybenzoate < o-hydroxybenzoate. The retention factors of organic anions examined for a ZnTPP column were in the order p-HBA < m-HBA < BA < o-HBA.     

Long-chain alkylimidazolium ionic liquids, a new class of cationic surfactants coated on ODS columns for anion-exchange chromatography

Separations of common inorganic anions were carried out on ODS columns coated with two long-chain alkylimidazolium ionic liquids ([C(12)MIm]Br and [C(14)MIm]Br) as new cationic surfactants for ion chromatography. With phthalate buffer solution as the mobile phases and non-suppressed conductivity detection, high column efficiencies and excellent selectivity were obtained in the separation of inorganic anions. Chromatographic parameters are calculated and the results show that the coated column possesses significant potential for the analysis of some inorganic anions such as CH(3)COO(-), IO(3)(-), Cl(-), BrO(3)(-), NO(2)(-), Br(-), NO(3)(-), SO(4)(2-), I(-), BF(4)(-), and SCN(-). The effect of eluent pH values on the separation of anions has been studied on the column coated with [C(12)MIm]Br. The stability of the coated columns was also examined.

Ion chromatography on carbon clad zirconia modified by diazonium chemistry and functionalized latex particles

This work explores the potential of 3 μm carbon coated zirconia particles as a stationary phase for ion chromatography for the separation of organic acids and inorganic ions. A 4-phenylsulfonic acid functionality is introduced onto the carbon surface by reducing 4-phenylsulfonic acid diazonium chloride with borohydride in the presence of carbon clad zirconia particles. The elemental sulfur analysis gave 132 μeq-SO(3)H/g carbon clad zirconia and 2% S atomic concentration by XPS analysis. The -SO(3)(-) groups serve as electrostatic anchors for latex nanoparticles bearing quaternary triethylamine functional groups. The agglomeration step in 5 × 0.4 cm i.d. columns converts the packed particles into an anion exchanger. The breakthrough curves with nitrate indicate a capacity of 3 μeq/column. Separation of common organic acids and inorganic ions using carbonate eluent and suppressed conductivity detection yield plate heights (H) of 0.023-0.05 mm.     

Effect of Column Temperature on the Retention of Inorganic Anions and Organic Acids in Non-Suppressed Anion-Exchange IC

An investigation has been conducted into the effect of column temperature on the retention of inorganic anions and organic acids in non-suppressed ion chromatography on an anion-exchange column. Potassium biphthalate and p-hydroxybenzoic acid–tris–boric acid were used as mobile phases. The column temperature was from 25 to 50 °C. Endothermic and exothermic retention of inorganic anions were both observed when potassium biphthalate was used as mobile phase. When p-hydroxybenzoic acid–tris–boric acid was used as mobile phase, however, endothermic behavior only was observed. Moreover, for the two mobile phases, variation of the retention time of the system peaks with changing temperature was reversed. For retention of the organic acids, only endothermic behavior was observed with the two mobile phases. Variation of retention time was greater when p-hydroxybenzoic acid–tris–boric acid was used as mobile phase than when potassium biphthalate was used. These results indicated the exchange reaction in anion-exchange chromatography could be either endothermic or exothermic, depending on the solute and mobile phase ions involved. Different relative changes of retention time were observed for individual inorganic anions and organic acids with increasing column temperature. In general, variation of retention time with increasing temperature was greater for strongly retained inorganic anions and organic acids than for weakly retained species. Van’t Hoff plots for inorganic anions, organic acids, and system peaks were linear. Selectivity variation of the retention of inorganic anions and organic acids was achieved by changing the temperature. In achieving optimum separation of inorganic anions and organic acids, temperature was a valuable tool. To reduce the retention times of the ions and avoid interference from system peaks in non-suppressed anion-exchange ion chromatography with the two mobile phases, a low column temperature, for example, 35 °C, was best.     

Highly selective iodide membrane electrode based on a cerium salen.

A highly selective PVC membrane electrode based on a cerium-salen complex was prepared. The sensor displays an anti-Hofmeister selectivity sequence with a preference for iodide ion over many common organic and inorganic anions. The proposed electrode exhibits a near-Nernstian behavior over a wide concentration range (5.0 x 10(-2) - 8.0 x 10(-6) M) with a slope of 57.5 mV per decade, and a detection limit of 6.0 x 10(-6) M. The electrode has a very fast response time and can be used in the pH range of 3.0 - 1 1.0. It was applied, as an indicator electrode, in potentiometric titration of Ag+ ions.     

The analysis of toothpastes

Summary Toothpastes are multi-component-mixtures of different inorganic and organic compounds. Besides the mostly inorganic polishing agents they contain detergents as foaming agents, moisturizing components and solvents, water, sweetening agents, flavors, preservatives, thickening agents, dyes and special ingredients, the latter often in very low concentrations. Detailed publications about the general composition of toothpastes exist [1–4]. Ten years ago we [5] have already given a comprehensive scheme for the analysis of toothpastes. In the meantime the laboratory equipment and therefore possibilities for the analytical chemist have changed and a lot of new methods can be used so that it appears to be justified to give a new report about the matter. Especially the XF-methods for the detection and determination of metals are dealt with and the recently published HPLC methods for the separation and determination of surface active agents in toothpastes are treated. Chromatographic methods also have got great importance for the analysis of inorganic anions like phosphates, chlorides, sulfates etc. and of organic acids as well as for active agents which may possibly be used in toothpastes.
