新型吡咯烷键合反相高效液相色谱固定相的制备与研究（英文）

正A new ionic liquid-based high-performance liquid chromatography stationary phase is reported.A derivative of N-methyl pyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate was covalently immobilized on the surface of silica particles to prepare silica-based N-methyl pyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate(SilprMP BF4)stationary phase.The obtained ionic liquid-modified silica was evaluated and confirmed by elemental analysis,infrared spectroscopy,and thermogravimetric analysis.A column was packed with the modified particles.The retention behavior of aromatic compounds,alkyl benzenes,and acidic and basic compounds on the SilprMP BF4 stationary phase was studied under reversed-phase liquid chromatography conditions.The effect of the eluent pH on the separation of the acidic and basic compounds was also studied.The new stationary phase involves multiple retention mechanisms,such as electrostatic,hydrophobic,ion-dipole,and anion-exchange interactions,which might lead to multipurpose separation media.     

Investigation of π–π and ion–dipole interactions on 1-allyl-3-butylimidazolium ionic liquid-modified silica stationary phase in reversed-phase liquid chromatography

1-Allyl-3-butylimidazolium bromide ionic liquid [AyBIm]Br was prepared and used for the modification of mercaptopropyl-functionalized silica through surface radical chain-transfer addition. The obtained ionic liquid-modified silica (SiImBr) was characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The selective retention behaviours of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) including some positional isomers were investigated using SiImBr as a stationary phase in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. The results showed that SiImBr presented multiple interactions including hydrophobic, π–π, and ion–dipole interactions during the separation of PAHs and dipolar compounds. However, it is proposed that π–π and ion–dipole interactions play important roles in the separation of PAHs and dipolar compounds. These results indicate that the ionic liquid-modified silica stationary phase is promising for future applications. A commercially available monomeric octadecylated silica (ODS) column and a custom-made poly(styrene)-grafted silica (Sil-St_n) column were used as references.     

One-pot synthesis of pillar[5]quinone-amine polymer coated silica as stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography

To expand the application of pillararene in chromatographic separation, we designed and fabricated a pillar[5]quinone-amine polymer coated silica through quinone-amine reaction by facile one-pot synthesis method, which was applied as a stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography. Separation of hydrophobic compounds, hydrophilic compounds, halogenated aromatic compounds, and 11 aromatic positional isomers was achieved successfully in this stationary phase. Reverse-phase separation mode and hydrophilic-interaction separation mode were proved to exist, indicating the potential application of the mix-mode stationary phase. Studies of chromatographic retention behavior and molecular simulation showed that multiple interactions might play an important role in the separation process, including hydrophobic interaction, hydrogen-bonding interaction, aromatic π-π interaction, electron donor-acceptor interaction, and host-guest interaction. Column repeatability and stability were tested, which showed relative standard deviations of retention time less than 0.2% for continuous 11 injections, and the durability relative standard deviations of retention time were less than 0.91% after 90 days. This novel design strategy would broaden the application of pillararene-based covalent organic polymer in chromatography and separation science.     

Polydimethylsiloxane-functionalized monolithic silica column for reversed-phase capillary liquid chromatography

A polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-modified monolithic silica column was prepared for performing reversed-phase capillary liquid chromatography. The prepared PDMS column has a permeability of 6.4×10(-14) m(2) with a plate height <9.2 μm. Alkylbenzenes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were well separated with the PDMS stationary phase, which exhibited similar selectivity and separation mechanism to that of octadecyl stationary phase. The hydrophobic interactions between the analytes and the PDMS stationary phase mainly play the roles for the separation of alkylbenzenes and PAHs. The characteristics of the PDMS column for the separation of alkylbenzenes and PAHs demonstrated that it would be a promising alternative to the octadecyl column.     

Preparation,characterization and application of a new 25,27‐bis‐[2‐(5‐methylthiadiazole)thioethoxyl]‐26,28‐dihydroxy‐para‐tert‐butyl calix[4]arene stationary phase for HPLC

A new para‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene column containing thiadiazole functional groups was prepared and used for the separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phenolic compounds, aromatic amines, benzoic acid and its derivatives by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The effect of organic modifier content in the mobile phase on retention and selectivity of these compounds were investigated. The results indicate that the stationary phase behaves like reversed‐phase packing. However, hydrogen bonding, π–π and inclusion interactions seem to be involved in the separation process. The column has been successfully employed for the analysis of clenbuterol in pork and pig casing; the limit of detection and the limit of quantitation for this method by HPLC‐UV detection was 0.03 and 0.097 μg/mL, respectively; the method is demonstrated to be suitable and a competitive alternative analytical method for the determination of clenbuterol.     

Dicationic imidazolium ionic liquid modified silica as a novel reversed‐phase/anion‐exchange mixed‐mode stationary phase for high‐performance liquid chromatography

A dicationic imidazolium ionic liquid modified silica stationary phase was prepared and evaluated by reversed‐phase/anion‐exchange mixed‐mode chromatography. Model compounds (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and anilines) were separated well on the column by reversed‐phase chromatography; inorganic anions (bromate, bromide, nitrate, iodide, and thiocyanate), and organic anions (p‐aminobenzoic acid, p‐anilinesulfonic acid, sodium benzoate, pathalic acid, and salicylic acid) were also separated individually by anion‐exchange chromatography. Based on the multiple sites of the stationary phase, the column could separate 14 solutes containing the above series of analytes in one run. The dicationic imidazolium ionic liquid modified silica can interact with hydrophobic analytes by the hydrophobic C₆ chain; it can enhance selectivity to aromatic compounds by imidazolium groups; and it also provided anion‐exchange and electrostatic interactions with ionic solutes. Compared with a monocationic ionic liquid functionalized stationary phase, the new stationary phase represented enhanced selectivity owing to more interaction sites.     

Study of a monolithic silica capillary column coated with poly(octadecyl methacrylate) for the reversed-phase liquid chromatographic separation of some polar and non-polar compounds

The performance of a monolithic silica capillary column coated with poly(octadecyl methacrylate) (ODM column) for the reversed-phase liquid chromatographic separation of some polar and non-polar compounds was studied, and the results were compared to those obtained by using a monolithic silica capillary column modified with octadecylsilyl-(N,N-diethylamino)silane (ODS column). Benzene and naphthalene derivatives, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), steroids, alkyl phthalates, and tocopherol homologues were used as test samples. In general, compounds with aromatic character, rigid and planar structures, and lower length-to-breadth ratios (more compacted structures) seem to have more preference for the polymer coated stationary phase (ODM). Compounds with acidic character have also a higher retention on ODM columns because of the presence of ester groups in the stationary phase. The polymer coated column allowed the separation of some PAHs, alkyl phthalates, steroids, and of beta- and gamma-tocopherol isomers which cannot be separated under the same conditions on ODS columns, while keeping similar column efficiency. These results allowed to suggest ODM columns as a good alternative to conventional ODS columns for reversed-phase liquid chromatography.

Evaluation of a silicon oxynitride hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography column in saccharide and glycoside separations

The retention characteristics of a silicon oxynitride stationary phase for carbohydrate separation were studied in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode. Four saccharides including mono‐, di‐, and trisaccharides were employed to investigate the effects of water content and buffer concentration in the mobile phase on hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography retention. For the tested saccharides, the silicon oxynitride column demonstrated excellent performance in terms of separation efficiency, hydrophilicity, and interesting separation selectivity for carbohydrates compared to the bare silica stationary phase. Finally, the silicon oxynitride hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography column was employed in the separation of complex samples of fructooligosaccharides, saponins, and steviol glycoside from natural products. The resulting chromatograms demonstrated good separation efficiency and longer retention compared with silica, which further confirmed the advantages and potential application of silicon oxynitride stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography separation.     

Chemical profiling of Ziziphi spinosae semen using on-line comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry based on a novel phthalic anhydride bonded stationary phase

Ziziphi spinosae semen has been widely used to treat insomnia and anxiety. To profile its chemical components, an online comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was developed. In this two-dimensional liquid chromatography system, a novel phthalic anhydride-bonded stationary phase column was combined with a C18 column. As a result, this new stationary phase exhibited remarkable differences in separation selectivity from C18, achieving a good orthogonality of 83.3%. Moreover, this new stationary phase with weaker hydrophobicity than C18 realized solvent compatibility in the online configuration. Coupled with tandem MS, 154 compounds were identified, including 51 unreported compounds. Compared with one-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, this online two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry system exhibited a much higher resolving power in isomer separation. This work provided an effective separation and characterization method for the material basis of Ziziphi spinosae semen. This strategy provides ideas for the material basis research of other traditional Chinese medicines.     

Tetra‐proline‐modified calix[4]arene‐bonded silica stationary phase for simultaneous reversed‐phase/hydrophilic interaction mixed‐mode chromatography

A new water‐soluble tetra‐proline‐modified calix[4]arene‐bonded silica stationary phase was prepared straightforwardly by an indirect method and characterized by elemental analysis, energy dispersive Spectrometry, solid‐state ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Due to the simultaneous introduction of polar tetra‐proline and nonpolar calix[4]arene, the developed column possessing a double retention mode of reverse‐phase liquid chromatography and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography. A series of hydrophobic and hydrophilic test samples, including nucleosides and nucleotides, amines, monosubstituted benzenes, chiral compounds, and phenols, were used to evaluate the developed stationary phase. A rapid separation capability, high separation efficiency, and selectivity were achieved based on the multiple interactions between solutes and tetra‐proline‐modified calix[4]arene‐bonded silica stationary phase. Moreover, the developed stationary phase was further used to detect and separate hexamethylenetetramine in rice flour. All the results indicated the potential merits of the developed stationary phase for simultaneous separation of complex hydrophobic and hydrophilic samples with high selectivity.     

Imidazoline type stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography and reversed-phase liquid chromatography

An imidazoline was prepared by solvent-free microwave-assisted organic synthesis and immobilized on porous silica particles by polymerization. The resulting material was composed of both hydrophobic alkyl ester chains and hydrophilic imidazoline rings, which gave it both hydrophilic interaction and reversed-phase characteristics. The titration curve suggests that the new material has buffering capacity and acquires increasing positive charge over the pH range 9-4, and is "zwitterionic" in the upper part of this pH range. Through investigating the effect of column temperature, the water content, pH and ion strength of mobile phase on the retention time of polar compounds in highly organic eluents, it was found that the new material could be used as a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) stationary phase which involved a complex retention process consisting of partitioning, surface adsorption and electrostatic interactions. In addition, the retention behavior of aromatic compounds in different mobile phase conditions was also studied, which showed the new material mainly exhibited a partitioning mechanism in the reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) mode. The separation of six water-soluble vitamins and five aromatic compounds were achieved by using the new material in the HILIC and RPLC modes, respectively.     

Dipyridine modified silica--a novel multi-interaction stationary phase for high performance liquid chromatography

A novel multi-interaction stationary phase based on 4,4'-dipyridine modified silica was synthesized and characterized, by infrared spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Mechanism involved in the chromatographic separation is the multi-interaction including π-π, hydrophobic, hydrogen-bonding, electrostatic and anion-exchange interactions. Based on these interactions, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and phenols were successfully separated respectively in reversed-phase chromatography; inorganic and organic anions were also separated individually in anion-exchange chromatography by using the same column. Furthermore, the simultaneous separation of neutral organics, inorganic and organic anions was obtained on this stationary phase with the appropriate mobile phase. Therefore, such stationary phase has the characteristics of multi-interaction mechanism and multi-modal separation, and has potential application on complex samples.     

Quinolinium ionic liquid-modified silica as a novel stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography

A novel stationary phase based on quinolinium ionic liquid-modified silica was prepared and evaluated for high-performance liquid chromatography. The stationary phase was investigated via normal-phase (NP), reversed-phase (RP), and anion-exchange (AE) chromatographic modes, respectively. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phthalates, parabens, phenols, anilines, and inorganic anions were used as model analytes in chromatographic separation. Using the newly established column, organic compounds were separated successfully by both NP and RP modes, and inorganic anions were also separated completely by AE mode. The obtained results indicated that the stationary phase could be applied in different chromatographic modes, with multiple-interaction mechanism including van der Waals forces (dipole–dipole, dipole–induced dipole interactions), hydrophobic, π–π stacking, electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, anion-exchange interactions, and so on. The column packed with the stationary phase was applied to analyze phthalates and parabens in hexane extracts of plastics. Tap water and bottled water were also analyzed by the column, and nitrate was detected as 20.1 and 13.8 mg L^?1, respectively. The results illustrated that the stationary phase was potential in practical applications.

Liquid crystal stationary phases for gas chromatography and supercritical fluid chromatography

Novel monomeric and polymeric liquid crystalline compounds were synthesized as stationary phases for gas chromatography (GC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). Monomeric liquid crystalline compounds were used in packed column gas chromatography for the separation of isomeric aromatic compounds and insect sex pheromones. Liquid crystalline polymers possess long nematic ranges and a uniform coating was easily achieved in glass and fused silica capillaries, which could stand temperatures up to 250°C in GC and pressures of 200 MPa at 160°C in SFC. The columns provide excellent selectivity and resolution for fused ring aromatic compounds such as the isomers anthracene and phenanthrene or triphenylene and chrysene.     

Incorporation of ionic liquid into porous polymer monoliths to enhance the separation of small molecules in reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography

An ionic liquid was incorporated into the porous polymer monoliths to afford stationary phases with enhanced chromatographic performance for small molecules in reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. The effect of the ionic liquid in the polymerization mixture on the performance of the monoliths was studied in detail. While monoliths without ionic liquid exhibited poor resolution and low efficiency, the addition of ionic liquid to the polymerization mixture provides highly increased resolution and high efficiency. The chromatographic performances of the monoliths were demonstrated by the separations of various small molecules including aromatic hydrocarbons, isomers, and homologues using a binary polar mobile phase. The present column efficiency reached 27 000 plates/m, which showed that the ionic liquid monoliths are alternative stationary phases in the separation of small molecules by high‐performance liquid chromatography     

Preparation of chitosan functionalized monolithic silica column for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography

A novel cationic hydrophilic interaction monolithic stationary phase based on the chemical modification of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH) to the monolithic silica skeleton using carbodiimide as an activation reagent was prepared for performing capillary liquid chromatography. The amino and hydroxy moieties of CMCH functioned as both the ion-exchange sites and polar providers. The performance of the column was studied by the separation of polar acidic compounds. The chitosan functionalized monolithic silica column showed good selectivity for nucleosides, nucleotides, aromatic acids and aliphatic acids. The mechanism for the separation of these compounds was also studied. The results showed that these compounds were separated primarily based on the hydrophilic interaction mechanism.

Evaluation of the Effect of Citronellol Group on Functionalized Mesogenic Materials by Capillary GC

In this paper, the effects of functionalization with terpenes on two new liquid-crystalline stationary phases for gas chromatography (GC) are described. Citronellol was used as the terminal group in the first material, and tetrahydrogeraniol was used with a second material. Inverse GC showed that the new materials have wide liquid-crystalline ranges (mesophases), 371–500 and 395–501 K, respectively. Moreover, they show good thermal stability up to 523 K and good potential as stationary phases for capillary GC. To clarify the effects of the liquid crystal structures and functional groups on retention and separation, the chromatographic behaviors of the two stationary phases were compared by eluting alkylbenzenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, aromatic compounds, and terpenoids. The selectivities for a wide range of analytes achieved using the citronellol column were significantly better than those obtained using the tetrahydrogeraniol column. The columns showed different retention behaviors and fine resolutions for some of the main constituents of essential oils. Introduction of the double bond of citronellol greatly improved the polarization interactions involved in the shape recognition of the liquid-crystalline state for isomers. The new citronellol liquid-crystalline stationary phase, therefore, has a high affinity for natural compounds.
