Preparation of a mixed-mode hydrophilic interaction/anion-exchange polymeric monolithic stationary phase for capillary liquid chromatography of polar analytes

A novel cationic hydrophilic interaction monolithic stationary phase based on the copolymerization of 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyltrimethylammonium methyl sulfate (META) and pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA) in a binary porogenic solvent consisting of cyclohexanol/ethylene glycol was designed for performing capillary liquid chromatography. While META functioned as both the ion-exchange sites and polar ligand provider, the PETA, a trivinyl monomer, was introduced as cross-linker. The monolithic stationary phases with different properties were easily prepared by adjusting the amount of META in the polymerization solution as well as the composition of the porogenic solvent. The hydrophilicity of the monolith increased with increasing content of META in the polymerization mixture. A typical hydrophilic interaction chromatography mechanism was observed when the content of acetonitrile in the mobile phase was higher than 20%. The poly(META-co-PETA) monolith showed very good selectivity for neutral, basic and acidic polar analytes. For polar-charged analytes, both hydrophilic interaction and electrostatic interaction contributed to their retention. Peak tailing of basic compounds was avoided and the efficient separation of benzoic acid derivatives was obtained.     

Preparation of a monolithic column with a mixed‐mode stationary phase of reversed‐phase/hydrophilic interaction for capillary liquid chromatography

A monolithic capillary column with a mixed‐mode stationary phase of reversed‐phase/hydrophilic interaction chromatography was prepared for capillary liquid chromatography. The monolith was created by an in‐situ copolymerization of a homemade monomer N,N‐dimethyl‐N‐acryloxyundecyl‐N‐(3‐sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine and a crosslinker pentaerythritol triacrylate in a binary porogen agent consisting of methanol and isopropanol. The functional monomer was designed to have a highly polar zwitterionic sulfobetaine terminal group and a hydrophobic long alkyl chain moiety. The composition of the polymerization solution was systematically optimized to permit the best column performance. The columns were evaluated by using acidic, basic, polar neutral analytes, as well as a set of alkylbenzenes and Triton X100. Very good separations were obtained on the column with the mixed‐mode stationary phase. It was demonstrated that the mixed‐mode stationary phase displayed typic dual retention mechanisms of reversed‐phase/hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography depending on the content of acetonitrile in the mobile phase. The method for column preparation is reproducible.     

Preparation of phosphorylcholine‐based hydrophilic monolithic column and application for analysis of drug‐related impurities with capillary electrochromatography

A hydrophilic monolithic CEC column was prepared by thermal copolymerization of zwitterionic monomer 2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC), pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), either methacrylatoethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (META) or sodium 2‐methylpropene‐1‐sulfonate (MPS) in a polar binary porogen consisting of methanol and THF. A typical hydrophilic interaction LC retention mechanism was observed for low‐molecular weight polar compounds including amides, nucleotides, and nucleosides in the separation mode of hydrophilic interaction CEC, when high content of ACN (>60%) was used as the mobile phase. The effect of the electrostatic interaction between the analytes and the stationary phase was found to be negligible. The poly(MPC‐co‐PETA‐co‐META or MPS) monolithic columns have an average column efficiency of 40 000 plates/m and displayed with a satisfactory repeatability in terms of migration time and peak areas. Finally, the column was successfully applied to determine the impurities of a positively charged drug pramipexole which are often separated by ion pair RP chromatography due to their high hydrophilicity. All four components can be baseline separated within 5 min with BGE consisting of ACN/20 mM ammonium formate buffer (pH 3.0; 80/20).     

Sulfoalkylbetaine‐based monolithic column with mixed‐mode of hydrophilic interaction and strong anion‐exchange stationary phase for capillary electrochromatography

A novel monolithic stationary phase with mixed mode of hydrophilic and strong anion exchange (SAX) interactions based on in situ copolymerization of pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), N,N‐dimethyl‐N‐methacryloxyethyl N‐(3‐sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine (DMMSA) and a selected quaternary amine acrylic monomer was designed as a multifunctional separation column for CEC. Although the zwitterionic functionalities of DMMSA and hydroxy groups of PETA on the surface of the monolithic stationary phase functioned as the hydrophilic interaction (HI) sites, the quaternary amine acrylic monomer was introduced to control the magnitude of the EOF and provide the SAX sites at the same time. Three different quaternary amine acrylic monomers were tested to achieve maximum EOF velocity and highest plate count. The fabrication of the zwitterionic monolith (designated as HI and SAX stationary phase) was carried out when [2‐(acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium methylsulfate was used as the quaternary amine acrylic monomer. The separation mechanism of the monolithic column was discussed in detail. For charged analytes, a mixed mode of HI and SAX was observed by studying the influence of mobile phase pH and salt concentration on their retentions on the poly(PETA‐co‐DMMSA‐co‐[2‐(acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium methylsulfate) monolithic column. The optimized monolith showed good separation performance for a range of polar analytes including nucleotides, nucleic acid bases and nucleosides, phenols, estrogens and small peptides. The column efficiencies greater than 192 000 theoretical plates/m for estriol and 135 000 theoretical plates/m for charged cytidine were obtained.     

Novel highly hydrophilic methacrylate-based monolithic column with mixed-mode of hydrophilic and strong cation-exchange interactions for pressurized capillary electrochromatography

A novel highly hydrophilic polymethacrylate-based monolithic stationary phase based on the copolymerization of 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) and pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA) was designed for pressurized capillary electrochromatography. A typical hydrophilic interaction chromatography mechanism could be observed when the content of acetonitrile (ACN) in the mobile phase exceeded 25%. Slight swelling or shrinking with mobile phases of different polarity was observed in permeability studies. Good retentions and efficient separations of polar analytes, such as neutral amides and phenols, were well achieved in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode with only about 50% ACN content in the mobile phase. It was remarkably lower than the content of ACN (>90%) used on the hydrophilic polymethacrylate-based monoliths reported previously. Additionally, a mixed mode of hydrophilic interaction (HI) and strong cation-exchange (SCX) could be also obtained in the analysis of charged peptides, and high column efficiency up to 80,000 plates/m was achieved without peak tailing. The prepared hydrophilic stationary phase might provide a potential environmental friendly separation media for polar solutes as it consumes a low volume of organic solvents.     

Preparation of poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone-co-pentaerythritol triacrylate) monolithic column for hydrophilic interaction chromatography

A method for the preparation of poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone-co-pentaerythritol triacrylate copolymerization)-based monolithic capillary column was reported for the separation of polar small molecular weight compounds with nano-liquid chromatography in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode. The monolithic columns were prepared by in situ copolymerization of N-vinylpyrrolidone and a cross-linker pentaerythritol triacrylate in a binary porogenic agent consisting of methanol and water. The composition of the polymerization solution was systematically optimized in terms of column permeability, theoretical plate number, asymmetric factor, and retention factor. A typical hydrophilic chromatography retention mechanism was observed with a mobile phase composed of a high content of organic solvent. The preparation method is simple and robust, the precursor N-vinylpyrrolidone is chemically stable, cheap, and easily available. The N-vinylpyrrolidone-based hydrophilic interaction chromatography stationary phase displays satisfactory separation selectivity for a range of polar test analytes, including benzoic acid derivatives, nucleosides, and phenols.     

Preparation and evaluation of a neutral methacrylate-based monolithic column for hydrophilic interaction stationary phase by pressurized capillary electrochromatography

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.
