亲水作用色谱研究及环糊精固定相的应用

目前在诸多领域中,强极性和亲水性物质的分离问题引起了研究者们相当程度的重视。从理论上讲,使强亲水性及强极性的样品在色谱上有适当保留的根本方法应当是使样品被极性的固定相所吸附,并被洗脱剂中极性更强的组分洗脱后富集。由于分离分析和制备中广泛应用的反相液相色谱对极性物质的保留和分离能力相对较弱,故近年来一种新的色谱类型—亲水作用色谱,在极性化合物分离方面的应用得到了越来越多的关注。亲水作用色谱具有流动相组成简单、分离效率较高、与质谱兼容性较好等优势,成为色谱领域研究的热点之一。环糊精及其聚合物作为一种吸附剂在亲水作用色谱固定相中的应用也崭露头角,其以独特的包结性质在分离分析及有机分子识别方面具有重要应用,在多维色谱联用及手性分离方面亦具有一定的潜力。本文对近几年来环糊精作为亲水作用色谱固定相的研究进行了综述,以期提供有价值的参考。

Hydrophilic interaction chromatography using amino and silica columns for the determination of polar pharmaceuticals and impurities

Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) is described as a useful alternative to reversed-phase chromatography for applications involving polar compounds. In the HILIC mode, an aqueous-organic mobile phase is used with a polar stationary phase to provide normal-phase retention behavior. Silica and amino columns with aqueous-acetonitrile mobile phases offer potential for use in the HILIC mode. An examination of the retention and separation of several pyrimidines, purines, and amides on silica and amino columns from three manufacturers revealed that mobile phases should contain a buffer or acid for pH control to achieve similar and reproducible results among columns from different sources. Amino columns may also be used in an anion-exchange mode, which provides an advantage for some applications. In some cases, silica can provide different selectivity and better separation than an amino column. Example applications include: low-molecular-mass organic acids and amides as impurities in non-polar drug substances, 5-fluorouracil in 5-fluorocytosine, guanine in acyclovir, and different selectivity for polar basic compounds compared to an ion-pairing system.     

Stationary and mobile phases in hydrophilic interaction chromatography: a review

Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) is valuable alternative to reversed-phase liquid chromatography separations of polar, weakly acidic or basic samples. In principle, this separation mode can be characterized as normal-phase chromatography on polar columns in aqueous-organic mobile phases rich in organic solvents (usually acetonitrile). Highly organic HILIC mobile phases usually enhance ionization in the electrospray ion source of a mass spectrometer, in comparison to mobile phases with higher concentrations of water generally used in reversed-phase (RP) LC separations of polar or ionic compounds, which is another reason for increasing popularity of this technique. Various columns can be used in the HILIC mode for separations of peptides, proteins, oligosaccharides, drugs, metabolites and various natural compounds: bare silica gel, silica-based amino-, amido-, cyano-, carbamate-, diol-, polyol-, zwitterionic sulfobetaine, or poly(2-sulphoethyl aspartamide) and other polar stationary phases chemically bonded on silica gel support, but also ion exchangers or zwitterionic materials showing combined HILIC-ion interaction retention mechanism. Some stationary phases are designed to enhance the mixed-mode retention character. Many polar columns show some contributions of reversed phase (hydrophobic) separation mechanism, depending on the composition of the mobile phase, which can be tuned to suit specific separation problems. Because the separation selectivity in the HILIC mode is complementary to that in reversed-phase and other modes, combinations of the HILIC, RP and other systems are attractive for two-dimensional applications. This review deals with recent advances in the development of HILIC phase separation systems with special attention to the properties of stationary phases. The effects of the mobile phase, of sample structure and of temperature on separation are addressed, too.     

亲水作用色谱及其在环境分析中的应用进展

亲水作用色谱(HILIC)是一种分离极性和亲水性化合物的液相色谱模式,其作为反相液相色谱(RPLC)的重要补充,近年来越来越受到各个领域的关注和重视。这不只是因为强极性化合物的分离问题在各个领域引起了重视,而且因为与RPLC比较,HILIC具有流动相组成黏度低、色谱柱渗透性好、与质谱联用的灵敏度高及反压较低等优势。本文简要概述了HILIC的发展历程、特点及保留机理,重点介绍了HILIC用于环境分析的最新进展,评述了HILIC及RPLC用于污染物分析的优缺点,并指出了HILIC用于环境分析的未来发展趋势。     

Orthogonal method development using hydrophilic interaction chromatography and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography for the determination of pharmaceuticals and impurities

A hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) method has been developed and validated as a secondary or orthogonal method complementary to a reversed-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) method for quantitation of a polar active pharmaceutical ingredient and its three degradation products. The HILIC method uses a diol column and a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile/water and ammonium chloride. The compounds of interest show significant differences in retention behaviors with the two very different chromatographic systems, which are desired in developing orthogonal methods. The HILIC method is validated and has met all validation acceptance criteria for the support of drug development activities.     

Covalently bonded polysaccharide-modified stationary phase for per aqueous liquid chromatography and hydrophilic interaction chromatography

The mixed sulfated/methacryloyl polysaccharide derivative was prepared and successfully immobilized onto the surface of porous silica particles by polymerization. Polysaccharide derivative was calculated as 10.33% in the stationary phase prepared. The new stationary phase (PMSP) showed both hydrophilic interaction (HILIC) and per aqueous liquid chromatography (PALC) characteristics. The effects of column temperature, the water content, pH and ion strength of mobile phase on the retention time of test compounds in highly aqueous eluents were investigated to evaluate the PALC features of PMSP. The column efficiency is about 31,000 plates/m for benzoic acid in water/ACN (97/3, v/v) mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Compared with C18 column, the PMSP had shorter retention time for weak polar and non-polar compounds, but also showed stronger retention for strong polar compounds. It indicated that PALC was a suitable mode of chromatography as replacement of HILIC and complementarity of reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC).     

Capillary liquid chromatography using a hydrophilic/cation-exchange monolithic column with a dynamically modified cationic surfactant

A novel form of reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) by the dynamically modified hydrophilic interaction monolithic column has been described in this paper. A porous poly(SPMA-co-PETA) monolith with strong cation-exchange (SCX) was prepared and the resulting monolith showed a typical hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) mechanism at higher organic solvent content (ACN% > 50%). The good selectivity for neutral, basic and acidic polar analytes was observed in the HILIC mode. In order to increase the hydrophobic interaction, the monolith with SCX was dynamically modified with a long-chain quaternary ammonium salt, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), which was added to the mobile phase. CTAB ions were adsorbed onto the surface of the SCX monolithic material, and the resulting hydrophobic layer was used as the stationary phase. Using the dynamically modified SCX monolithic column, neutral, basic and acidic hydrophobic analytes were well separated with the RPLC mode.     

Dual Retention Mechanism in Two-Dimensional LC Separations of Barbiturates,Sulfonamides, Nucleic Bases and Nucleosides on Polymethacrylate Zwitterionic Monolithic Micro-Columns

In-house prepared zwitterionic polymethacrylate micro-columns using in situ polymerization of N,N-dimethyl-N-metacryloxyethyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine (MEDSA) functional monomer with bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (BIGDMA) cross-linker provided excellent stability and reproducibility of preparation and separation efficiency of 60,000–70,000 theoretical plates m⁻¹ for small molecules under isocratic conditions. The column showed a dual retention mechanism, reversed-phase (RP) in highly aqueous mobile phases and aqueous normal-phase (HILIC) in acetonitrile-rich mobile phases. This property can be used to obtain complementary separation and combined information on the sample from repeated injections of a sample on a single column, in different mobile phases characteristic for the HILIC and for the RP modes, which is in fact a form of offline two-dimensional chromatography on a single column. The dual retention mechanism has been observed with a variety of columns, however, often with impractically narrow retention range in one of the two modes. To take full advantage from the combined single-column RP–HILIC experiments, the column should provide a sufficiently broad mobile phase interval both in the RP and in the HILIC mode. The BIGDMA-MEDSA micro-columns proved suitable earlier for the combined RP–HILIC separations of some phenolic compounds and flavonoids. In the present work, we investigated the effects of the mobile phase composition on the retention of a variety of polar compounds over full retention range of buffered aqueous acetonitrile mobile phases, to find potentially useful HILIC and RP retention ranges for barbiturates, sulfonamides, nucleosides and nucleic bases. In the HILIC mode, proton donor–acceptor interactions show a major effect on retention and selectivity of separation, whereas the size of the non-polar hydrocarbon part of the sample molecule is the most important factor in the water-rich mobile phases. The sample structure strongly affects the composition of aqueous–organic mobile phases at which the transition between the two retention modes occurs. Of the investigated sample types, barbiturates show better separation under reversed-phase conditions, whereas nucleosides and nucleic bases in the HILIC mode. Aromatic carboxylic acids and sulfonamides can be separated either in the reversed phase or under HILIC conditions, the two separation modes showing complementary selectivity of separation.

     

Serial coupling of reversed-phase and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography to broaden the elution window for the analysis of pharmaceutical compounds

It is presently a common practice in drug discovery to analyse samples by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) and hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC). To increase throughput, HILIC was connected in series to RPLC by means of a T-piece with make-up flow. The first column is a 2mm I.D. column having an optimal flow between 0.1 and 0.2mL/min. Via the T-piece, the flow for the second dimension column with an I.D. of 4.6mm is adjusted to 1.5-2.0mL/min with a high acetonitrile content (i.e. >/=80%) mobile phase. Therefore, even in gradient RPLC analysis starting with a mobile phase with high water content, the HILIC column is always operated at high acetonitrile concentration which is required to obtain retention on the HILIC column. The performance of the hyphenated RPLC/HILIC set-up is illustrated with the analysis of two model samples of pharmaceutical interest. Optimization of the conditions in the HILIC dimension is discussed.     

Imidazoline type stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography and reversed-phase liquid chromatography

An imidazoline was prepared by solvent-free microwave-assisted organic synthesis and immobilized on porous silica particles by polymerization. The resulting material was composed of both hydrophobic alkyl ester chains and hydrophilic imidazoline rings, which gave it both hydrophilic interaction and reversed-phase characteristics. The titration curve suggests that the new material has buffering capacity and acquires increasing positive charge over the pH range 9-4, and is "zwitterionic" in the upper part of this pH range. Through investigating the effect of column temperature, the water content, pH and ion strength of mobile phase on the retention time of polar compounds in highly organic eluents, it was found that the new material could be used as a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) stationary phase which involved a complex retention process consisting of partitioning, surface adsorption and electrostatic interactions. In addition, the retention behavior of aromatic compounds in different mobile phase conditions was also studied, which showed the new material mainly exhibited a partitioning mechanism in the reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) mode. The separation of six water-soluble vitamins and five aromatic compounds were achieved by using the new material in the HILIC and RPLC modes, respectively.     

Evaluation of the properties of a superficially porous silica stationary phase in hydrophilic interaction chromatography

The sample capacity, column efficiency (and its variation with flow) of a superficially porous unbonded silica phase (Halo) was investigated using hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC), particularly for separation of basic compounds. Sample capacity compared with totally porous silica phases was somewhat reduced, broadly in line with the decreased surface area, but still favourable compared with reversed-phase separations of these solutes. Efficiencies in excess of 100,000 plates were obtained at room temperature in reasonable analysis times by using a 45 cm coupled column, while generating back pressures compatible with conventional HPLC. Shorter columns offered the possibility of fast analysis of bases, and the unfavourable mass transfer properties reported by others at high flow rate for similar reversed-phase columns, were not apparent. While excellent peak shapes were obtained for many bases on silica HILIC phases, problems may still occur for some solutes.
