Estimation of silanol groups in silica-based packings for liquid chromatography from gas chromatographic retention of cyclohexane and benzene

Summary Gas chromatographic retention of cyclohexane and benzene on microcolumns packed with silica-based materials for liquid chromatography has been investigated to elucidate the relationship with the surface properties of the packing materials. Differences in capacity factors (k) for these two hydrocarbons were related to the surface area of the packing materials. For untreated silica gels, the k value increased with increasing total surface area of the column employed and measurement of k for chemically-bonded stationary phases allowed estimation of accessible residual silanol groups.     

Universal system for liquid stationary phase classification on the basis of thermodynamical data

Summary Equations modifying Rohrschneider's relationship between I and thermodynamical characteristics values are derived. Polarity in chromatography is discussed as a possibility of stationary phases or absorbents to enter into intermolecular interactions and is determined on the basis of the partial molar free energies of solution (G) of six test substances. A simple method for the calculation of stationary phase polarity in terms of G from retention indices and McReynolds constants is given. Equations are presented for the calculation of stationary phase selectivity utilizing G data tabulated for selected test substances. The thermodynamical basis of selecting a reference phase for a unified system expressing the selectivity of stationary phases which can also be applied for adsorbents is suggested. The energy equivalent to an index unit, G_i.u., is discussed.     

Marked differences between acetonitrile/water and methanol/water mobile phase systems on the thermodynamic behavior of benzodiazepines in reversed phase liquid chromatography

Summary Two different methods were used to determine the separation factor at different temperatures and the Gibbs-Helmholtz parameters ((H), (S)) of two adjacent benzodiazepines on a chromatogram were obtained from plots of ln versus 1/T. We first studied each factor (fraction of water in the ACN/water mixture and column temperatureT), which controls the retention mechanism, and then we examined the simultaneous variation of all these factors. The changes in (H) and (S) in relation to a volume fraction of water in an ACN/water mixture were examined. In the ACN/water system, (H) was fairly constant in the acetonitrile region of 0.52 and appears to be a roughly linear function of for 0.52. In this system (S) is approximately a parabolic function of with an optimum at 0.52. The retention mechanism of ten benzodiazepines was found to be significantly different in the methanol/water and ACN/water mixtures. The separation optimization of these ten benzodiazepines was then considered. A fraction of water of 0.43 in the ACN/water mixture and a column temperature of 44°C gave the most efficient separation conditions in the ACN/water mixture.     

Chiroptical detection during liquid chromatography,part 5: On-line measurement of circular dichroism spectra Δε(λ) during stops of chromatographic flow

Summary A procedure is described which serves to measure circular dichrograms () on line during stops of flow in liquid chromatography. Since the concentration of substrate in the spectrometer cell during the stop is not known, the differential absorption coefficients are calculated from the experimental differential absorbances A by means of UV absorption (i. e. photomultiplier voltage) data. Verifications of the procedure are obtained by its application to three substrates (Table 1), the () spectra of which were known. The present on-line technique is compared with a corresponding off-line method.The N,N-dimethylthiobenzamides1 and2 as well as the 9,10-phenanthrenequinone7 consist of interconvertible enantiomers because their planar states are destabilized by steric overcrowding of groups. The unknown dichrograms () of1, 2 and7 are obtained (Figs. 2 and 4) and discussed with reference to the helicities of these molecules.In memory of the late Professor Dr. Dr. h. c.

Charge control of phenol complexation with unsaturated compounds containing organosilicon substituents. Thiophene derivatives

The frequency shifts of the O-H stretching modes and the resonance components _R of these shifts in the IR spectra of H-complexes of phenol with thiophene derivatives having organic and organosilicon substituents have been analyzed. Relationship of and _R parameters to values calculated by nonempirical methods that characterize the electronic effect of organic substituents on the effective charges of the thiophene ring atoms has been established. It has been shown that in the complexation of phenol (hard acid) with thiophene derivatives charge control prevails over frontier orbital control. The changes in the effective charges of the thiophene ring atoms due to the effect of organosilicon substituents have been calculated.For the previous publication of this series see Ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Oxidation of [Co(en)2(SOCH2CO2)]+ by S2O82− and by IO4− in binary aqueous solvent mixtures at pressures up to 1.25 kbar

Second order rate constants and activation parameters H, S, and V have been measured for the oxidation of [Co(en)2(SOCH2CO2)]+ by S2O82– and by IO4– in highly aqueous H2O – t-BuOH mixtures. The changes in solvation on going from the initial to the transition state are discussed on the basis of the transfer functions Gto, Hto and Sto. Whereas Gt changes smoothly as the proportion of t-BuOH increases, the plots of Ht and TSt exhibit mirror behaviour and pass through extrema located around x2(t- BuOH)=0.038. Information on the role of solvation is complemented by the determination of activation volumes. These are discussed in terms of intrinsic and solvational contributions. It is proposed that changes in hydrophobic hydration are of principal importance in determining the response of H, S, and V to changes in solvent composition in H2O – t-BuOH mixtures.     

Thermodynamic behavior of mixed benzodiazepines by a new liquid chromatographic method

Summary Using a rapid chemometric methodology to determine the separation factor, , at different temperatures, Gibbs Helmholtz parameters ( (H), (S), (G)) of two adjacent benodiazepines on a chromatogram were obtained from ln versus T^–1 plots. A temperature dependent reversal of the elution order was studied and the mobile phase composition and column temperature were optimized to obtain the best separation. A flow rate of 0.80 ml min^–1 with 52.6% methanol in the methanol-water mixture and a column temperature of 48°C gave the most efficient separation of ten benzodiazepines.     

Combined effect of organic modifier concentration and column temperature on retention in reversed-phase ion-pair liquid chromatography

Summary The retention behavior of phenylamine and naphthylamine sulphonic acid was evaluated in reversed-phase ion-pair liquid chromatography as a function of organic modifier concentration and column temperature. It has been observed that the logarithm of capacity factors decrease linearly with organic modifier concentration, and there is a good linear relationship between the intercept and slope for this relationship. Phenylamine and naphthylamine sulphonic acid retention decreases with increase in column temperature. A linear dependence of lnk _ip on the reciprocal of the absolute temperature, the Van't Hoff plot, was observed over the column temperature range studied, and the standard enhalpic change (H^o) for these sulphonic acid transfers from the mobile phaser to the stationary phase was determined. H^o was dependent on the solute structure and in the range from 2.5 Kcal/mol to 5.5 Kcal/mol, which is close to that observed in RP-HPLC. The enthalpy/entropy compensation effect was evaluated by plotting lnk _ip(T) vs. –H^o, and the apparent differences in retention mechanisms between the analytes were observed, which may arise from the significant differences in their configuration, hydrophobicity and the charges of the solutes as well as the complex retention processes of RP-IPC.     

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene. 14. Quantitative estimate of the effect of substituents on the NH acidities of pyrroles

The pK values of a series of substituted pyrroles and the vNH values (in dimethylformamide), which characterize their relative acidities were measured by the transmetallation method. It was established that the acidities of pyrroles are determined primarily by the inductive effect of the substituents and are virtually independent of the ability of the latter to enter into conjugation with the ring. This means that the electron pair of the anion that is set free in the ionization of pyrrole retains character. The linear dependences of the pK and NH values on the inductive constants (I) of the substituents can be used to estimate the pK values of various compounds that contain a pyrrole ring starting from the NH and I values.See [1] for communication 13.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 632–638, May, 1980.     

Charge control of the complex formation of phenol with unsaturated compounds containing organoelement substituents from group IV

The frequency shifts (v (OH)) of phenol and the resonance components (v_r) of these shifts in the IR spectra of forty H-complexes of phenol with furan derivatives containing organic, organosilicon, organogermanium, and organotin substituents are studied. The values of v and v_R are linearly related to quantum chemical parameters of the variation of the effective charges of the furan ring atoms affected by - and -interactions with organic substituents. The effect of the conjugation between an organoelement substituent and the furan ring on the effective charges is estimated. The resonance parameters (_R) of organoelement substituents in derivatives of benzene, thiophene, and furan and the reasons for the non-versatility of _R are considered.For report 7, see Ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Structural relationships in silatrane molecules

An updated compendium of silatrane structural data is presented. The relationships between nonplanarity at silicon (Si) andd(N-Si), the length of the dative bond, and nonplanarity at nitrogen N andd(N-Si) are examined. Excluding a platinum-substituted derivative: the Si relationship is strong and predicts the limiting length of a strong N Si bond, while the N relationship is weak. A good relationship between _I for the four (non-N) exo- and endocyclic substituents attached to Si holds for silatranes, methyl, keto, and diketo derivatives as well as for 2-carbasilatranes. The relationship fails for strong -donor exocyclic substituents, implicating resonance, and for benzo- and tribenzosilatranes, where steric effects dominate.On Leave of Absence from Academia Sinica, Beijing, People's Republic of China.

Kinetics and mechanism of the interaction of DL-methionine with cis-diaquaethylenediamine platinum(II) perchlorate in aqueous medium

The kinetics of the interaction of DL-methionine with [Pt(en)(H2O)2]2+ have been studied spectrophotometrically as a function of [Pt(en)(H2O)22+], [DL-methionine], PH and temperature. The reaction proceeds via a rapid outer sphere association followed by two slow consecutive steps having first order dependence on the aqua ion and methionine concentrations. Activation parameters have been evaluated using the Eyring equation. The low H1 (15.6 kJ mol–1) and large negative value of S1 (–230 J K–1 mol–1) as well as H2 (19.5 kJ mol–1) and S2 (–226 J K–1 mol–1) indicate an associative mode of activation for both the aqua ligand substitution processes in the two consecutive steps.

Reaction routes for hydrogenation of acetylene-ethylene mixtures using a double labelling method

Hydrogenation of C₂H₂:C₂H₄ mixtures using a double labelling method has been studied. Both in the presence and absence of ethylene the rate of acetylene hydrogenation on its partial pressure proceeds through a maximum and the rate is higher when ethylene is added. Using¹⁴C–C₂H₂ it was demonstrated that at low acetylene partial pressures the main route of acetylene hydrogenation was the formation of ethane and C₄ hydrocarbons. Using¹⁴C–C₂H₄ it was also shown that at certain acetylene partial pressures the formation of ethane from ethylene completely ceased. Different surface species are suggested and a reaction mechanism is proposed.

Mechanism of reactions in mixtures of calcium polyphosphate with apatite and accompanying minerals during heating

The thermal interaction of Kovdor apatite, calcite, dolomite and forsterite with calcium polyphosphate up to 1200 °C were studied by chemical, thermal (under dynamic and quasiisothermal and isobaric conditions), X-ray, electronmicroscopic and chromatographic methods. It was found that the accompanying minerals of apatite react with calcium polyphosphate at lower temperature in comparison with apatite, complicating the process of thermal defluorination of papatite.
