A novel monolithic stationary phase having long alkyl chain ligands (C17) was introduced and evaluated in capillary electrochromatography (CEC) of small neutral and charged species. The monolithic stationary phase was prepared by the in situ copolymerization of pentaerythritol diacrylate monostearate (PEDAS) and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) in a ternary porogenic solvent consisting of cyclohexanol/ethylene-glycol/water. While AMPS was meant to support the electroosmotic flow (EOF) necessary for transporting the mobile phase through the monolithic capillary, the PEDAS was introduced to provide the nonpolar sites for chromatographic retention. Monolithic columns at various EOF velocities were readily prepared by conveniently adjusting the amount of AMPS in the polymerization solution as well as the composition of the porogenic solvent. The monolithic stationary phases thus obtained exhibited reversed-phase chromatography behavior toward neutral solutes and yielded a relatively strong EOF. For charged solutes (e.g., dansyl amino acids), nonpolar as well as electrostatic interaction/repulsion with the monoliths were observed in addition to electrophoretic migration. Therefore, for charged solutes, selectivity and migration can be readily manipulated by changing various parameters including the nature of the monolith and the composition of the mobile phase (e.g., pH, ionic strength and organic modifier). Ultrafast separation on the time scale of seconds of 17 different charged and neutral pesticides and metabolites were performed using short capillary columns of 8.5 cm x 100 microm ID.  相似文献

A polar and neutral polymethacrylate-based monolithic column was evaluated as a hydrophilic interaction capillary electrochromatography (HI-CEC) stationary phase with small polar–neutral or charged solutes. The polar sites on the surface of the monolithic solid phase responsible for hydrophilic interactions were provided from the hydroxy and ester groups on the surface of the monolithic stationary phase. These polar functionalities also attract ions from the mobile phase and impart the monolithic solid phase with a given zeta potential to generate electro-osmotic flow (EOF). The monolith was prepared by in situ copolymerization of a neutral monomer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and a polar cross-linker with hydroxy group, pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), in the presence of a binary porogenic solvent consisting cyclohexanol and dodecanol. A typical HI-CEC mechanism was observed on the neutral polar stationary phase for both neutral and charged analytes. The composition of the polymerization mixture was systematically altered and optimized by altering the amount of HEMA in the polymerization solution as well as the composition of the porogenic solvent. The monoliths were tested in the pCEC mode. The resulting monoliths had different characteristics of hydrophilicity, column permeability, and efficiency. The effects of pH, salt concentration, and organic solvent content on the EOF velocity and the separation of nucleic acids and nucleosides on the optimized monolithic column were investigated. The optimized monolithic column resulted in good separation and with greater than 140,000 theoretical plates/m for pCEC.  相似文献

A method is described for the synthesis of rigid, macroporous polymers (monoliths) to be used as stationary phases in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The procedure reproducibly results in columns with good mechanical and chemical stability. Once the procedure was optimized, it yielded the desired CEC columns in nearly 100% of the cases. The batch-to-batch standard deviation of the migration of the electroosmotic flow (EOF) marker for nine randomly chosen columns was 5%. The polymerization is carried out inside the capillary, an aqueous phase is used as solvent. Monomers based on acrylamides with varying hydrophilicity were used to introduce the interactive moieties together with piperazine diacrylamide as cross-linker and vinylsulfonic acid as provider of the charged, EOF-producing moieties. The pore size of the monoliths was adjusted by adding varying amounts of ammonium sulfate to the reaction mixture. In this manner, the average pore size of a given monolith could be reproducibly adjusted to values ranging from 50 nm to 1.3 microm. The procedure was optimized for four particular types of monoliths, which differed in hydrophobicity. The latter was adjusted by introducing suitable co-monomers, such as alkyl chain-bearing molecules, into the monolithic structure. Attempts to systematically investigate the chromatographic behavior of the monolithic stationary phases were made, using a model mixture of aromatic compounds as sample. The standard deviations for the run-to-run reproducibility of the retention times for unretained and retained analytes were <1.5%. Flat Van Deemter curves were measured even at elevated flow-rates (2 mm/s). Plate heights between 10 and 15 microm were measured in this range. The retention order was taken as the principal indication for the chromatographic mode. The separation was found to be governed neither by pure reversed-phase nor by pure normal-phase chromatography, even on monoliths, where large amounts of C6 ligands had been introduced.  相似文献

A hybrid silica monolithic stationary phase for RP CEC was prepared by in situ co-condensation of (3-mercaptopropyl)-trimethoxysilane (MPTMS), phenyltriethoxysilane (PTES), and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) via a sol-gel process. The thiol groups on the surface of the stationary phase were oxidized to sulfonic acids by peroxytrifluoroacetic acid. The introduced sulfonic acid moieties on the monoliths were characterized by a strong and relatively stable EOF in a broad pH range from 2.35 to 7.0 in CEC. Aromatic acids and neutral compounds can be simultaneously separated in this column under cathodic EOF. The CEC column exhibited a typical RP chromatographic mechanism for neutral compounds due to the introduced phenyl groups.  相似文献

A carboxy precursor monolithic column, namely poly(carboxy ethyl acrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) was first produced in a 100 μm i.d. fused-silica capillary and subsequently surface bonded with n-octadecyl (C18) ligands by a post-polymerization functionalization process with octadecylamine in the presence of N,N´-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The bonding of octadecyl ligands was achieved via an amide linkage between the carboxy functions of the precursor monolith and the amino group of the octadecylamine compound. The resulting C18 monolith exhibited a very low electroosmotic flow (EOF), a fact that required the incorporation of small amounts of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid (AMPS) in the polymerization solution to produce a precursor monolith with fixed negative charges of sulfonate groups. This may indicate that the conjugation of the carboxy functions with octadecylamine occurred to a large extent so that the amount of residual carboxy functions was sparsely dispersed and not enough to produce a desirable EOF. The EOF velocity of the C18 column having fixed negative charges provided by the incorporated AMPS increased with increasing ACN content of the mobile phase signaling an increased binding of mobile phase ions to the polar amide linkages near the monolithic surface, and a decreased viscosity of the mobile phase, both of which would result in increased EOF velocity. The C18 monolithic column constituted a novel nonpolar sorbent for reversed-phase capillary electrochromatography for nonpolar solutes, e.g., alkylbenzenes, alkylphenyl ketones, and polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and slightly polar compounds including phenol and chlorophenols. The C18 monolithic column exhibited relatively high selectivity toward chlorophenols differing by one chloro substituent.  相似文献

In this study, poly(styrene-divinylbenzene-vinylsulfonic acid) monolithic columns, prepared by singlestep in situ polymerization, were first used as separation columns for CEC in which vinylsulfonic acid was employed as the charge-bearing monomer. The effects of the polymerization conditions (compositions of monomer and porogenic solvent, and polymerization time) on the chromatographic property of the polystyrene-based monolithic column were examined. Furthermore, an increase in water content of the porogenic solvent markedly altered the retention behaviors of these analytes, where the monolithic column was able to be produced in a higher ratio of vinylsulfonic acid. Finally, the study demonstrated that acidic analytes could be successfully separated by the polystyrene-based monolithic column under an acidic mobile phase.  相似文献

A novel polymethacrylate‐based monolithic column with covalently bonded zwitterionic functional groups was prepared by in situ copolymerization of N,N‐dimethyl‐N‐methacryloxyethyl N‐(3‐sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine (SPE), pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), and vinylsulfonic acid (VS) in a binary porogenic solvent consisting of cyclohexanol and ethylene glycol. This monolith was developed as a separation column for CEC. While SPE functioned as both an electrostatic interaction stationary phase and the polar ligand provider, VS was employed to generate EOF. PETA, which has much more hydrophilicity due to a hydroxyl sub‐layer, was used to replace ethylene dimethacrylate as a cross‐linker. The monolith provided an adequate EOF when VS level was maintained at 0.6% w/w. Different monolithic stationary phases were easily prepared by adjusting the ratio of PETA/SPE in the polymerization solution as well as the composition of the porogenic solvent. The observed RSD were ≤3.6, ≤4.3 and ≤5.6% for the EOF velocity, retention time, and column efficiency, respectively. The column efficiencies greater than 145 000 theoretical plates/m for thiourea and 132 000 theoretical plates/m for charged cytidine were obtained. The poly(SPE‐co‐PETA‐co‐VS) monolith showed good selectivity for neutral and charged polar analytes. It was found that the separation mechanism of charged polar solutes was attributed to a mixed mode of hydrophilic interaction and electrostatic interaction, as well as electrophoresis. No peak tailing was observed for the separation of basic compounds, such as basic nucleic acid bases and nucleoside on the monolith.  相似文献

Summary Polymerisation of bicontinuous microemulsions yields porous monolithic structures with well defined pore sizes that are potentially suitable for use as stationary phases for capillary electrochromatography (CEC). A variety of pore sizes can be achieved by altering the composition of the microemulsion, which typically consists of butyl methacrylate (BMA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the polymerisable oil phase. The aqueous phase consists of water, a surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulphate, SDS) and a co-surfactant (1-propanol). 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulfonic acid (AMPS) is also added to provide charges along the polymer backbone to allow electroosmotic flow (EOF) to occur. SEM analysis shows that in-situ polymerisation yields a monolithic structure with a porous topography. Investigations have shown that these monoliths are easy to prepare, robust and suitable for the separation of phthalates. They generate higher linear velocities than are achieved using the silica based HPLC packings normally used for CEC.  相似文献

Three different synthetic routes have been introduced and evaluated for the preparation of amphiphilic silica-based monoliths possessing surface-bound octadecyl ligands and positively charged groups. The amphiphilic silica monoliths (designated as cationic C18-monoliths) have been designed for use in reversed-phase capillary electrochromatography (RP-CEC) with hydro-organic mobile phases. These amphiphilic stationary phases yielded anodic electroosmotic flow (EOF) over a wide range of mobile phase pH. The magnitude of EOF remained constant up to pH 4.0 and then decreased at pH > 4.0 due to the ionization of silanol groups and the subsequent decrease in the net positive surface charge density of the amphiphilic monoliths. The cationic C18-monoliths exhibited reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) behavior toward non-polar solutes (e.g., alkyl benzenes), which parallels that observed with octadecyl-silica (ODS) monoliths. On the other hand, the amphiphilic stationary phases exhibited both non-polar and polar interactions toward slightly polar solutes such as anilines and PTH-amino acids. CEC retention factor k* and velocity factor k*e, which reflects the contribution of the electrophoretic mobility, were evaluated for charged solutes such as anilines and proteins.  相似文献

Organic monolithic stationary phases were synthesized in fused-silica capillaries. They were prepared by in situ polymerization under UV irradiation of various alkyl acrylates, 1,3-butanediol diacrylate, and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid in a ternary porogenic solvent. The resulting stationary phases were tested in CEC. The influence of UV irradiation energy on the resulting separative performances of the monoliths was studied. It was thus demonstrated that the use of hexyl acrylate rather than butyl acrylate and lauryl methacrylate gives highly efficient monoliths (more than 300 000 plates per meter) with optimized EOF. It was also confirmed that the mobile phase ionic strength may affect significantly the separation efficiency. The influence of the nature of the mobile phase organic modifier (ACN or methanol) on EOF, retention, efficiency, and selectivity was studied and differences were observed. Finally, the performances of monolithic stationary phases developed and optimized for CEC separations were evaluated in nanoLC.  相似文献

A novel silica monolithic stationary phase functionalized with 3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyl ligands for pressurized CEC has been presented. The monolithic capillary columns were prepared by a sol-gel process in 75 microm id fused-silica capillaries and followed by a chemical modification. The diamino groups on the surface of the stationary phase are meant to generate the chromatographic surface and a substantial anodic EOF as well as to provide electrostatic interaction sites for charged solutes. The electrochromatographic characterization and column performance were evaluated by a variety of neutral and charged solutes. It was observed that the anodic EOF for the diamine-bonded monolith was greatly affected by the reaction time with 3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyltrimethoxysilane and the PEG amount in the sol-gel reaction mixture in addition to the mobile phase conditions. The monolithic stationary phase exhibited hydrophilic interaction chromatographic behavior toward neutral solutes. Good separations of various solutes including phenols, nucleic acid bases, nucleosides and nucleotides were achieved under different experimental conditions. Fast and efficient separations were obtained with high plate counts reaching more than 130,000 plates/m.  相似文献

Preparation of monolithic capillary columns for separations in the CEC mode using UV-initiated polymerization of the plain monolith followed by functionalization of its pore surface by photografting has been studied. The first step enabled the preparation of generic poly(butyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) monoliths with optimized porous properties, controlled by the percentages of porogens 1-decanol and cyclohexanol in the polymerization mixture, irradiation time, and UV light intensity. Ionizable monomers [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride or 2-acryloamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid were then photografted onto the monolithic matrix, allowing us to control the direction of the EOF in CEC. Different strategies were applied to control the grafting density and, thereby, the magnitude of the EOF. To control the hydrophobic properties, two approaches were tested: (i) cografting of a mixture of the ionizable and hydrophobic monomers and (ii) sequential grafting of the ionizable and hydrophobic monomers. Cografting resulted in similar retention but higher EOF. With sequential grafting, more than 50% increase in retention factors was obtained and a slight decrease in EOF was observed due to shielding of the ionizable moieties.  相似文献

An octadecyl-sulfonated silica (ODSS) stationary phase specially designed for performing capillary electrochromatography (CEC) at relatively strong electroosmotic flow (EOF) proved useful for the separations of some nucleosides and bases. The ODSS stationary phase is composed of a hydrophilic, negatively charged sublayer to which a nonpolar top layer containing octadecyl ligands is covalently attached. The charged sublayer contains sulfonic acid groups which ensure a relatively strong EOF. Due to the presence of permanently charged sulfonic acid groups in the sublayer, the hydrophilic nature of the sublayer and the hydrophobic character of the top octadecyl layer, retention and selectivity of charged and relatively polar nucleosides and bases on the ODSS stationary phase are based on electrostatic interaction, hydrophilic interaction, and reversed-phase mechanisms. This yielded for the ODSS stationary phase a unique selectivity towards the nucleosides and bases, thus allowing their rapid separation. To gain insight into the chromatographic behavior of nucleosides and bases on the ODSS stationary phase, the results were compared to those obtained on an octadecyl-silica (ODS) capillary under otherwise the same elution conditions. Due to the difference in the nature of the organic layers on the surface of the ODSS and ODS stationary phases, the elution order on both stationary phases differed significantly, and the ODSS capillary proved more suitable for the separation of the nucleosides and bases than the ODS capillary.  相似文献

A mode of capillary electrochromatography (CEC), based on the dynamical adsorption of surfactants on the uncharged monolithic stationary phases has been developed. The monolithic stationary phase, obtained by the in situ polymerization of butyl methacrylate with ethylene dimethacrylate, was dynamically modified with an ionic surfactant such as the long-chain quaternary ammonium salt of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and long-chain sodium sulfate of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The ionic surfactant was adsorbed on the surface of polymeric monolith by hydrophobic interaction, and the ionic groups used to generate the electroosmotic flow (EOF). The electroosmotic mobility through these capillary columns increased with increasing the content of ionic surfactants in the mobile phase. In this way, the synthesis of the monolithic stationary phase with binary monomers can be controlled more easily than that with ternary monomers, one of which should be an ionic monomer to generate EOF. Furthermore, it is more convenient to change the direction and magnitude of EOF by changing the concentration of cationic or anionic surfactants in this system. An efficiency of monolithic capillary columns with more than 140000 plates per meter for neutral compounds has been obtained, and the relative standard deviations observed for to and retention factors of neutral solutes were about 0.22% and less than 0.56% for ten consecutive runs, respectively. Effects of mobile phase composition on the EOF of the column and the retention values of the neutral solutes were investigated. Simultaneous separation of basic, neutral and acidic compounds has been achieved.  相似文献

Preparation of a poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene-co-methacrylic acid) monolithic stationary phase for the use in capillary electrochromatography (CEC) has been improved by optimizing the polymerization conditions. It is observed that the reaction time strongly affects column efficiency, while the proportion of isooctane in porogen influences peak symmetry of some solutes seriously. The lifetime of the monolithic columns prepared mainly depends on the pH of buffers used. Reproducibility of electroosmotic flow (EOF) from batch to batch columns are lower than 2.8% relative standard deviation. Unlike other types of capillary electrochromatographic monoliths, a pH-dependent EOF was observed on this type of column. Separation of various types of compounds including aromatic hydrocarbons, hormones, anilines, basic pharmaceuticals, and peptides was achieved. The facile preparation and wide application of this monolithic column may make styrene-based polymer a potential stationary phase in CEC.  相似文献

Neutral diol methacrylate‐based monoliths were developed for normal phase chromatography (NPC) and NP‐CEC of polar compounds including N‐glycans. Four different diol methacrylate‐based monoliths were synthesized via the copolymerization of a functional monomer using either glyceryl monomethacrylate (GMM) or glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and a crosslinker either ethylene dimethacrylate (EDMA) or trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TRIM). While the GMM‐based monoliths yield in one reaction step polar diol methacrylate monoliths that are ready for use in NPC or NP‐CEC, the GMA‐based monoliths required a postmodification with hot sulfuric acid to convert the epoxy functions into diols before use in NPC or NP‐CEC. All the four monoliths are neutral and void of fixed charges on their surfaces but yet exhibited relatively strong EOF in NP‐CEC. The EOF is attributed to the adsorption of ions from the mobile phase thus forming the electric double layer necessary for producing a bulk mobile phase flow. Under the same in situ copolymerization conditions of GMM or GMA with either EDMA or TRIM, the GMM–EDMA monolith was the best choice in terms of retention, separation efficiency, EOF velocity in CEC and linear flow velocity in Nano‐LC.  相似文献

In this paper, a novel highly cross‐linked porous monolithic stationary phase having a long alkyl chain ligand (C16) was introduced and evaluated in CEC. The monolithic stationary phase was prepared by in situ copolymerization of 1‐hexadecene, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, and 2‐acrylamido‐2‐methyl‐1‐propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) in the presence of ternary porogenic solvent (cyclohexanol/1,4‐butanediol/water). In preparing monoliths, the ternary cross‐linker trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate was usually applied to preparing molecularly imprinted polymers or molecularly imprinted solid‐phase extraction, instead of binary cross‐linker ethylene dimethacrylate. 1‐Hexadecene was introduced to provide the non‐polar sites (C16) for chromatographic retention, while AMPS was used to generate the EOF for transporting the mobile phase through the monolithic capillary. Monolithic columns were prepared by optimizing proportion of porogenic solvent and AMPS content in the polymerization solution as well as the cross‐linkers. The monolithic stationary phases could generate a strong and stable EOF in various pH values and exhibit an RP‐chromatographic behavior for neutral compounds. For charged compounds, the separation was mainly based on the association of hydrophobic, electrostatic and electrophoretic interaction.  相似文献

Monolithic columns have been prepared with a novel bonded silica stationary phase, tetradecylamine bonded silica (TDAS), and used in pressurized capillary electrochromatography (pCEC). The monolithic silica column matrix was prepared by a sol-gel process and then chemically modified with the spacer (3-glycidoxypropyl)trimethoxysilane and tetradecylamine. The introduced embedded polar amine groups dominated the charge on the surface of the monolithic stationary phase and generated an EOF from cathode to anode under acidic conditions. The tetradecyl hydrophobic chains in TDAS provide chromatographic interactions. The chromatographic characteristics of the prepared monolithic column were studied. Some aromatic compounds including alkylbenzenes, aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, and anilines were successfully separated on the TDAS monolithic column in pCEC mode. As expected, the TDAS monolithic stationary phases exhibit typical reversed-phase electrochromatographic behavior toward neutral solutes due to the introduced tetradecyl groups. Hydrophobic as well as electrophoretic migration processes within the monoliths were observed in the separation of basic anilines. Symmetrical peaks can be obtained for anilines because the embedded polar amine groups on the surface can effectively shield the adsorption of positively charged analytes onto the stationary phase.  相似文献

Two polar ligands, namely 3-hydroxypropionitrile and 1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarbonitrile (IDCN) were covalently attached to epoxy-activated silica-based monolithic capillary columns via an epoxide ring-opening reaction to yield CN-OH-Monolith and 2CN-OH-Monolith, respectively. The silica monolith was prepared by a sol-gel process, and the resulting "rod-like" stationary phase was subjected to pore tailoring with an alkaline solution to convert small pore domains to mesopore domains, thus yielding a monolith with bimodal pore structure consisting of flow through pores (i.e., flow channels for mobile-phase flow) and mesopores that provide most of the adsorption capacity of the monolith toward the separated solutes. The two polar monoliths, CN-OH-Monolith and 2CN-OH-Monolith, were evaluated in normal-phase CEC with organic-rich mobile phases less polar than the stationary phase. The 2CN-OH-Monolith bearing more polar functions than the CN-OH-Monolith exhibited more retention and improved selectivity toward model polar solutes.  相似文献
