Rapid and simultaneous determination of piperidinium and pyrrolidinium ionic liquid cations by ion pair chromatography coupled with direct conductivity detection

A method of ion-pair chromatography with direct conductivity detection was developed on a silicabased monolithic column for the fast and simultaneous determination of piperidinium and pyrrolidinium ionic liquid cations. The effects of the mobile phase, column temperature and flow rate on the retention of the cations were investigated. The retention rules were discussed. As an ion-pair reagent, sodium heptanesulfonate is more suitable than sodium pentanesulfonate for the separation and determination of piperidinium and pyrrolidinium cations. The increase of ion-pair reagent concentration led to the increased retention time of the cations. When acetonitrile content and mobile phase flow were increased, the retention time of the cations became shorter. The retention of piperidinium and pyrrolidinium cations is an exothermic process, and the retention of the cations conforms to the carbon number rule. The chromatographic analysis was performed using the Chromolith Speed ROD RP-18e column, 0.5 μmol/L sodium heptanesulfonate-5% acetonitrile as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 3.0 mL/min and column temperature of 30℃. Separation of N-methyl-N-ethyl piperidinium, N-methyl-N-propyl piperidinium, N-methyl-N-butyl piperidinium and N-methyl-N-ethyl pyrrolidinium, N-methyl-N-propyl pyrrolidinium, N-methyl-N-butyl pyrrolidinium cations were achieved within 10 min. The detection limits (S/N=3) were between 0.19 and 3.08 mg/L. Relative standard deviations (n=5) for peak areas were less than 1.2%. The method has been applied to the determination of piperidinium and pyrrolidinium cations in ionic liquid samples. The spiked recoveries of ionic liquid cations were between 96% and 111%. The method is accurate, reliable, rapid, and has a better practicability.

Ionic liquids as mobile phase additives for determination of thiocyanate and iodide by liquid chromatography

An analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of thiocyanate and iodide by reversed‐phase liquid chromatography with UV detection using imidazolium ionic liquids as mobile phase additives. The chromatographic behaviors of the two anions on a C₁₈ column were studied and compared with four types of reagents including imidazolium ionic liquids, pyridinium ionic liquids, 4‐aminophenol hydrochloride and tetrabutylammonium as mobile phase additives.

Sensitive determination of buspirone in serum by solid-phase extraction and two-dimensional high-performance liquid chromatography

A selective and sensitive determination of buspirone in serum by high-performance liquid chromatography is described. The procedure is based on separation on a C18 column. A solid-phase extraction procedure is used for sample clean-up. The retention on the first column is based on the hydrophobic interaction of buspirone with the stationary phase, and the retention on the second column is based on ionic interactions due to the presence of sodium lauryl sulphate in the mobile phase as well as hydrophobic interaction. This allows for good separation of buspirone from impurities and consequently allows lower detection limits than previously reported for liquid chromatographic methods. Detection by ultraviolet absorbance gives a detection limit of 0.2 ng/ml.

Simultaneous determination of three alkaloids in Huangbo using an ionic liquid as a mobile phase additive in reversed‐phase liquid chromatography

A reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography method for the simultaneous determination of jatrorrhizine, palmatine, and berberine in Huangbo, the dried bark of Chinese Corktree, was established by using 1‐hexyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tertafluoroborate as a mobile phase additive. The chromatographic behavior of the three compounds on the C₁₈ column was studied with four different types of 1‐alkyl‐3‐methylimidazolium‐based ionic liquids as the mobile phase additives. The effect of 1‐hexyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tertafluoroborate was the best in the four investigated ionic liquids. The concentration of 1‐hexyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tertafluoroborate and the pH of the mobile phase, which influenced the chromatographic behaviors of the three bioactive compounds, were investigated. The linearity, precision, accuracy, repeatability, limit of detection, and quantification of the proposed method were found to be satisfactory. To explain the role of ionic liquids as the mobile phase additives, the possible mechanism was also explored and discussed.     

Dynamic coating ion-exchange chromatography of cations on an octadecyl-bonded silica stationary phase

It was found that common cations (Na+, NH4+, K+, Mg2+ and Ca2+) could be strongly retained on an ODS stationary phase when aqueous solutions of carboxylic acids were used as eluents. The chromatographic conditions used in this work were the same as in common cation-exchange chromatography on a cation-exchange resin and the retention behavior of the above-mentioned cations on the ODS column was quite similar to that on a cation-exchange column. The retention behavior and mechanism have been investigated using a number of carboxylic acids as eluents. The retention mechanism of the cations in these experiments was considered to be a dynamic coating ion-exchange mechanism. The carboxylic acids in the mobile phase were coated onto the surface of the ODS stationary phase and formed a dynamic carboxylic acid functional layer which could act like the functional group layer of a carboxylic group cation exchanger.
