System constants for the bis(cyanopropylsiloxane)-co-methylsilarylene HP-88 and poly(siloxane) Rtx-440 stationary phases

The solvation parameter model is used to characterize the retention properties of the bis(cyanopropylsiloxane)-co-methylsilarylene, HP-88, and poly(siloxane), Rtx-440, stationary phases over the temperature range 60-140 degrees C. HP-88 is among the most cohesive, dipolar/polarizable and hydrogen-bond basic of stationary phases for open-tubular column gas chromatography. It has no hydrogen-bond acidity or capacity for electron lone pair interactions. It exhibits similar selectivity to the poly(cyanopropylsiloxane) stationary phase SP-2340. Rtx-440 is a low-polarity, low-cohesion stationary phase with a moderate capacity for dipolar/polarizable and hydrogen-bond base interactions. It has no hydrogen-bond acidity and possesses weak electron lone pair interactions. It has unique selectivity when compared against a system constants database for 28 common stationary phase compositions. Cluster analysis indicated that the poly(cyanopropylphenyldimethylsiloxane) stationary phase containing 6% cyanopropylphenylsiloxane monomer, DB-1301, the poly(dimethyldiphenylsiloxane) stationary phase containing 20% diphenylsiloxane monomer, Rtx-20, the poly(siloxane) stationary phase of unknown composition, DB-624, and DX-1 [a mixture of poly(dimethylsiloxane) and poly(ethylene glycol) 9:1] are the closest selectivity matches in the database. The selectivity of DB-1301 and Rtx-440 are very similar for solutes with weak hydrogen-bond acidity allowing one stationary phase to be substituted for the other with likely success. For strong hydrogen-bond acids, such as phenols, DB-1301 and Rtx-440 exhibit different selectivity.     

Chromatographic resolution of dipeptide enantiomers and diastereomers on chiral stationary phases from poly(L-leucine) or poly(L-phenylalanine)

Two types of chiral stationary phase, polymer-bonded and non-bonded, containing poly(L-leucine) and poly(L-phenylalanine) were prepared. These stationary phases gave higher enantioselectivity for the optical resolution of various derivatives of leucylphenylalanine methyl ester by liquid chromatography than did poly(L-alanine) and poly(L-glutamate).     

Adjusting the chromatographic properties of poly(ionic liquid)‐modified stationary phases by substitution on the imidazolium cation

Poly(ionic liquid)‐modified stationary phases can have multiple interactions with solutes. However, in most stationary phases, separation selectivity is adjusted by changing the poly(ionic liquid) anions. In this work, two poly(ionic liquid)‐modified silica stationary phases were prepared by introducing the cyano or tetrazolyl group on the pendant imidazolium cation on the polymer chains. Various analytes were selected to investigate their mechanism of retention in the stationary phases using different mobile phases. Two poly(ionic liquid)‐modified stationary phases can provide various interactions toward solutes. Compared to the cyano‐functionalized poly(ionic liquid) stationary phase, the tetrazolyl‐functionalized poly(ionic liquid) stationary phase provides additional cation‐exchange and π‐π interactions, resulting in different separation selectivity toward analytes. Finally, applicability of the developed stationary phases was demonstrated by the efficient separation of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs.     

Evaluation of the separation characteristics of application-specific (fatty acid methyl esters) open-tubular columns for gas chromatography

The solvation parameter model is used to characterize the separation properties of the polar stationary phases EC-Wax and PAG with a poly(ethylene oxide) backbone (substituted with propylene oxide in the case of PAG) and the cyanopropyl-substituted polysilphenylene-siloxane stationary phase BPX90 at five equally spaced temperatures between 60 and 140 degrees C. The separation characteristics of these stationary phases are compared to four PEG and two poly(cyanopropylsiloxane) stationary phases (HP-20M, HP-Innowax, SolGel-Wax, DB-WAXetr, HP-88, and SP-2340) characterized in the same way. The database of system constants for these polar stationary phases is used to provide insight into the separation mechanism for fatty acid methyl esters and to determine selectivity differences that can be expected for generically similar stationary phase types. The discussion is not structured to indicate which stationary phase should be used for a particular separation but to provide a general framework to demonstrate the relationship between the retention mechanism and stationary phase chemistry.     

Poly(ethylene oxide)-bonded stationary phase for capillary ion chromatography

Methyl-capped poly(ethylene oxide) moieties were chemically bonded to silica gel using an amine-reactive modification reagent and evaluated as the stationary phase for ion chromatography. In this work, primary amino groups of an aminopropylsilica packing material were reacted with methyl-PEO₁₂-NHS ester (succinimidyl-{[N-methyl]-dodecaethyleneglycol} ester) in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) at room temperature. The prepared poly(ethylene oxide)-bonded stationary was evaluated for the separation of inorganic anions, and the retention behavior of inorganic anions on the prepared stationary phase was examined. The elution order of the investigated anions was the same as that observed in common ion chromatography. Both cations and anions of the eluent affected the retention of the analyte anions. Ion exchange was involved for the retention of analyte anions, although the present stationary phase does not possess any discrete ion-exchange sites. The stationary phase was applied to the separation of trace anions contained in tap water and a rock salt.     

Evaluation of the separation characteristics of application-specific (pesticides and dioxins) open-tubular columns for gas chromatography

The solvation parameter model is used to characterize the retention properties of four application-specific open-tubular columns (Rtx-CLPesticides, Rtx-OPPesticides, Rtx-Dioxin and Rtx-Dioxin2) at five equally spaced temperatures over the range 60-140 degrees C. Cluster analysis is used to compare the system constants to a database of forty open-tubular columns characterized according to the same method. System constants differences and retention factor correlation plots are then used to determine selectivity differences between the application-specific columns and their nearest neighbors identified by cluster analysis. The Rtx-CLPesticides and Rtx-OPPesticides columns are shown to belong to the selectivity group containing poly(dimethylmethyltrifluoroprpylsiloxane) stationary phases with Rtx-OPPesticides having a similar selectivity to a poly(dimethylmethyltrifluoropropylsiloxane) stationary phase containing 20% methyltrifluoropropylsiloxane monomer (DB-200) and Rtx-CLPesticides separation properties for a stationary phase containing less than 20% methyltrifluoropropylsiloxane monomer. The Rtx-Dioxin and Rtx-Dioxin2 columns are located in the selectivity group dominated by the poly(dimethyldiphenylsiloxane) stationary phases containing less than 20% diphenylsiloxane monomer. The Rtx-Dioxin and Rtx-Dioxin2 columns are shown to be selectivity equivalent to a (5% phenyl) carborane-siloxane copolymer stationary phase (Stx-500) and a second generation silarylene-siloxane copolymer stationary phase containing dimethylsiloxane and diphenylsiloxane monomers (DB-XLB), respectively.

Chromatographic characteristics of poly(1-vinylimidazole)-grafted silica in normal-phase HPLC

A stationary phase based on poly(1-vinylimidazole)-grafted silica has been prepared by the surface radical chain-transfer reaction. The stationary phase was characterized by infrared spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Chromatographic characteristics of the stationary phase were investigated in normal-phase HPLC. The results showed that both weak polar compounds (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dialkyl phthalates) and polar compounds (anilines, phenols) could be successfully separated on this stationary phase, implying better separation performance than blank silica and conventional aminopropyl-bonded silica under the same conditions. The excellent performance can be attributed to multiple interactions between surface modifier and the analytes that might include dipole, hydrogen bonding, H-π, electrostatic and inductive interactions.

Syntheses and polymerizations of novel chiral poly(acrylamide) macromonomers and their chiral recognition abilities

Chiral poly(acrylamide) macromonomers (PMB‐1, PMB‐2, PPAE‐1, and PPAE‐2) were synthesized from 2‐methacryloyloxyethyl isocyanate and prepolymers, that is, poly[(S)‐methylbenzyl acrylamide] or poly(L ‐phenylalanine ethylester acrylamide with a terminal carboxylic acid or hydroxy group. Radical homopolymerizations of poly(acrylamide) macromonomers were carried out under several conditions to obtain the corresponding optically active polymers. A strong temperature dependence on the specific optical rotation was observed for poly(PPAE‐2) in comparison with that for the corresponding prepolymer. This might have resulted from a change in the conformation caused by hydrogen bonds between polymer‐graft branches in the polymacromonomer. Radical copolymerizations of poly(acrylamide) macromonomers with styrene and methyl methacrylate were performed with azobisisobutyronitrile in tetrahydrofuran at 60 °C. Chiroptical properties of the copolymers were slightly influenced by comonomer units. Chiral stationary phases were prepared by the radical polymerization of poly(acrylamide) macromonomers in the presence of silica gel containing vinyl groups on the surface. Some racemic compounds such as menthol and mandelic acid were resolved on the chiral stationary phases for high‐performance liquid chromatography. The conformation based on hydrogen bonds between polymer‐graft branches in the polymacromonomers may play an important role in chiral discrimination. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Selectivity of some basic solutes on a poly(methyltetradecylsiloxane)-silica stationary phase

Complex analyses of polar compounds, especially basic ones, require more selective stationary phases. The present paper describes a stationary phase prepared by thermal immobilization of poly(methyltetradecylsiloxane) onto chromatographic silica (PMTDS-SiO(2)). This stationary phase presents hydrophobic and ion-exchange interactions that confer both high retention and unique selectivities for basic solutes. The influence of ion-exchange interactions is confirmed by the increase in retention factors of basic solutes when the mobile-phase pH changes from acidic to neutral and by the decrease in retention factors when the mobile-phase pH changes from neutral to alkaline. The ion-exchange properties of the stationary phase are enriched in neutral mobile phase (pH 7-7.5) using soft Lewis bases such as tricine and tris as buffers but are suppressed in both acidic (pH 2.5-6) and highly alkaline mobile phases (pH≤10). Increasing both temperature and flow rate permits more rapid separations while maintaining the selectivity. The stability of the stationary phase is evaluated with acid, neutral and alkaline mobile phases.     

Chromatographic properties and polarity evaluation of poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne) and poly(1-phenyl-1-propyne)

The chromatographic properties of poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne) (PTMSP) and poly(1-phenyl-1-propyne) (PPP) were studied by gas chromatography using packed columns. The selectivity and efficiency of columns packed with PTMSP and PPP were compared to the data obtained for columns with other known adsorbents and stationary phases. The McReynolds and Rohrschneider constants, on the basis of which the polarity of the new phases was evaluated, were calculated. The results of the investigation of chromatographic properties allow PTMSP to be brought in line with the polymeric adsorbents Porapak Q, Porapak QS, and Chromosorb 106, while PPP, with the methyphenylsilicon phases SE-52 and OV-3.     

Evaluation of the separation characteristics of application-specific (volatile organic compounds) open-tubular columns for gas chromatography

The solvation parameter model is used to characterize the separation characteristics of two application-specific open-tubular columns (Rtx-Volatiles and Rtx-VGC) and a general purpose column for the separation of volatile organic compounds (DB-WAXetr) at five equally spaced temperatures over the range 60-140 degrees C. System constant differences and retention factor correlation plots are then used to determine selectivity differences between the above columns and their closest neighbors in a large database of system constants and retention factors for forty-four open-tubular columns. The Rtx-Volatiles column is shown to have separation characteristics predicted for a poly(dimethyldiphenylsiloxane) stationary phase containing about 16% diphenylsiloxane monomer. The Rtx-VGC column has separation properties similar to the poly(cyanopropylphenyldimethylsiloxane) stationary phase containing 14% cyanopropylphenylsiloxane monomer DB-1701 for non-polar and dipolar/polarizable compounds but significantly different characteristics for the separation of hydrogen-bond acids. For all practical purposes the DB-WAXetr column is shown to be selectivity equivalent to poly(ethylene glycol) columns prepared using different chemistries for bonding and immobilizing the stationary phase. Principal component analysis and cluster analysis are then used to classify the system constants for the above columns and a sub-database of eleven open-tubular columns (DB-1, HP-5, DB-VRX, Rtx-20, DB-35, Rtx-50, Rtx-65, DB-1301, DB-1701, DB-200, and DB-624) commonly used for the separation of volatile organic compounds. A rationale basis for column selection based on differences in intermolecular interactions is presented as an aid to method development for the separation of volatile organic compounds.

Comparison of the results obtained with literature data using hierarchical cluster analysis showed dissimilarity with most of the commercial phases. Some basic pharmaceuticals, including six benzodiazepines were separated on one of the better PMOS phases.
