Microphase separation in polybenzoxazine thermosets containing benzoxazine-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) telechelics

Benzoxazine-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) telechelics (Ba-terminated PEO) was synthesized and incorporated into polybenzoxazine to obtain the nanostructured thermosets. The morphology of the thermosets was investigated by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM), small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The formation of the nanophase structures in the thermosetting composites was addressed on the basis of the mechanism of reaction-induced microphase separation (RIMPS), which was in marked contrast to the case of the binary thermosetting blends of polybenzoxazine with hydroxyl-terminated poly(ethylene oxide). The occurrence of RIMPS resulted from the copolymerization reaction of the end groups of Ba-terminated PEO telechelics with the precursor of thermosetting matrix (i.e., benzoxazine), which suppressed the occurrence of the macroscopic phase separation. It was found that the formation of the nanostructures has a significant effect on the melting behavior of PEO in the thermosets, thermal transition properties of the PBZ thermosets.     

Chromatographic separation of neodymium isotopes by using chemical exchange process

The neodymium isotope effects were investigated in Nd–malate ligand exchange system using the highly porous cation exchange resin SQS-6. The temperature of the chromatographic columns was kept constant at 50 °C by temperature controlled water passed through the columns jackets. The separation coefficient of neodymium isotopes, ?’s, was calculated from the isotopic ratios precisely measured by means of an ICP mass spectrometer equipped with nine collectors as ion detectors. The separation coefficient, ? × 10⁵, were calculated and found to be 1.4, 4.8, 5.4, 10.6, 16.8 and 20.2 for ¹⁴³Nd, ¹⁴⁴Nd, ¹⁴⁵Nd, ¹⁴⁶Nd, ¹⁴⁸Nd and ¹⁵⁰Nd, respectively.     

Coatings of one monomer molecularly imprinted polymers for open tubular capillary electrochromatography

One monomer molecularly imprinted polymer coatings were first synthesized in fused silica capillary columns with 2-methacrylamidopropyl methacrylate (MAM) as single functional monomer in addition to a cross-linking monomer. Since MAM may generate no or little EOF, a strategy of precursor of polymerization, which does not interfere with the formation of defined imprints, was used to introduce an ionizable functional monomer to generate a stable electroosmotic flow for electrochromatography (CEC) by post-polymerization hydrolization. The resulting MAM-based open-tubular imprinted capillary was able to separate enantiomers by means of CEC. The resolution of enantiomers separation achieved on S-amlodipine-imprinted capillary was up to 16.1. The strong recognition ability (selectivity factor was 3.23) and high column performance (theory plates was 26,053 plates m(-1)) of template were obtained. The MIP coatings were also prepared using either S-naproxen or S-ketoprofen as template molecule. The resolutions of enantiomers separation were 2.20 and 4.56, respectively. The results illustrate that the synthesis of MIP using one monomer is not only an experimental-simplified process, but also an approach to producing chiral stationary phase with high efficiency and selectivity.     

A novel approach to improve operation and performance in flow field-flow fractionation

A new system design and setup are proposed for the combined use of asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) and hollow-fiber flow field-flow fractionation (HF5) within the same instrumentation. To this purpose, three innovations are presented: (a) a new flow control scheme where focusing flow rates are measured in real time allowing to adjust the flow rate ratio as desired; (b) a new HF5 channel design consisting of two sets of ferrule, gasket and cap nut used to mount the fiber inside a tube. This design provides a mechanism for effective and straightforward sealing of the fiber; (c) a new AF4 channel design with only two fluid connections on the upper plate. Only one pump is needed to deliver the necessary flow rates. In the focusing/relaxation step the two parts of the focusing flow and a bypass flow flushing the detectors are created with two splits of the flow from the pump. In the elution mode the cross-flow is measured and controlled with a flow controller device. This leads to reduced pressure pulsations in the channel and improves signal to noise ratio in the detectors. Experimental results of the separation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and of a mix of four proteins demonstrate a significant improvement in the HF5 separation performance, in terms of efficiency, resolution, and run-to-run reproducibility compared to what has been reported in the literature. Separation performance in HF5 mode is shown to be comparable to the performance in AF4 mode using a channel with two connections in the upper plate.     

Constructing chiral caves and efficiently separating enantiomers of glutamic acid with novel surface-imprinting technique

Dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) was first graft-polymerized onto the surfaces of micron-sized silica gel particles in the manner of "grafting from" in a solution polymerization system, obtaining the grafted particles PDMAEMA/SiO(2). Then, the molecular imprinting towards the grafted PDMAEMA was conducted with one enantiomer of glutamic acid (Glu), L-Glu, as template molecule and with 2,2'-dichlorodiethylether (DCEE) as crosslinking agent by adopting the novel surface-molecular imprinting technique established by our research group, and the single enantiomer (L-Glu) molecule-imprinted material MIP-PDMAEMA/SiO(2) was obtained. With another enantiomer of glutamic acid, D-Glu, as the contrast compound, the recognition property of MIP-PDMAEMA/SiO(2) for L-Glu was investigated in depth with both static and dynamic methods, and its ability to separate L-Glu and D-Glu in the racemic solution was examined. The experiment results show that the surface-imprinted material MIP-PDMAEMA/SiO(2) has fine recognition selectivity and binding affinity for l-Glu, whereas its ability to combine D-Glu is poor. The selectivity coefficient of MIP-PDMAEMA/SiO(2) for L-Glu with respect to D-Glu is equal to 3.30, displaying an excellent chiral separation result. It is obvious that in this study, the substance separation at the molecular configuration level has been realized successfully.     

Relationship between selectivity and average resolution in comprehensive two-dimensional separations with spectroscopic detection

The average value of the multivariate selectivity (SEL) of randomly positioned peaks in a multi-component separation is shown to equal the average fraction of peaks that are singlets, as predicted by statistical-overlap theory (SOT). This equality is the basis for proposing a useful metric, specifically the average minimum resolution of nearest-neighbor peaks, for the performance of comprehensive two-dimensional (2D) separations. Furthermore this metric was computed both without ancillary spectroscopic information and with the assistance of such help, specifically multi-wavelength UV-vis spectra, acquired during the separation. Separations are simulated with randomly positioned peaks over wide ranges of total number of peaks, first- and second-dimension peak capacity, dimensionless first-dimension sampling time, and spectral diversity. The specific version of the general multivariate selectivity concept that is used here--identified as SEL--gives the relative precision of quantification when using the PARAFAC (parallel factor analysis) method, a popular curve resolution algorithm. The SEL values of all peaks were calculated, averaged, and compared to the predictions of SOT. In the absence of auxiliary spectral data, the SEL-based average minimum resolution required to separate two peaks in a 2D separation is 0.256, compared to resolution of 0.5 if no chemometric assistance is available. This was found to be valid over a wide range of conditions and is essentially independent of peak crowding. With the assistance of the spectral data, the requisite minimum resolution substantially improves, that is, it decreases, especially when peak crowding is severe. The requisite minimum resolution decreases even further, up to a limit, as the spectral diversity is increased. In contrast, the SEL-based average under-sampling correction factor is virtually independent of the presence of the additional spectral data, and additionally is about the same as calculated with SOT from the average number of maxima in closely analogous simulations. The use of selectivity greatly increases the fraction of peaks that are singlets, relative to the number of singlet maxima, especially when spectral assistance is added. The insensitivity of the under-sampling correction factor to either the use of selectivity or added spectral data simplifies optimization of the corrected peak capacity in on-line comprehensive 2D separations.     

Using multiple short-end injections to develop fast electrophoretic separations--applications in iodide analysis

The aim of this study was to develop a fast CE separation method by using multiple short-end injections in a capillary coated with quaternary ammonium chitosan (HACC), in order to determine the iodide content of pharmaceutical formulations. The BGE was composed of 20 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and 11 mM hydrochloric acid, at pH 8. The internal standard used was thiocyanate. Separations were performed in a fused silica capillary (32 cm total length, 8.5 cm effective length and 50 μm i.d.) coated with HACC and direct UV detection at 220 nm. EOF was modified by flushing the capillary with polymeric solution, resulting in a semi-permanent coating of controlled and stable EOF. The EOF was anodic at pH 8. Different strategies, using single and multiple injection short-end configurations, were studied to develop a CE method that resulted in a maximum number of iodide samples analyzed per hour: one plug and flush (Sflush) 35 samples/h, one plug without flush (SWflush) 76 samples/h, four plugs and flush (Mflush) 61 samples/h, and four plugs without flush (MWflush) 80 samples/h. Using the multiple injection configuration, it was possible to inject up to four plugs using spacer electrolytes with good separation efficiency and selectivity. The voltage application time needed to separate the eight peaks (iodide and thiocyanate) with MWflush was only 12s. The method was validated and samples were analyzed using MWflush. Good linearity (R(2)>0.999); a limit of detection 0.4 mg L(-1); intermediate precision better than 3.8% (peak area) and recovery in the range of 99-102% were obtained.     

Computational modeling of capillary electrophoretic behavior of primary amines using dual system of 18-crown-6 and β-cyclodextrin

Using capillary electrophoresis (CE) three chiral primary amine compounds 1-aminoindan (AI), 1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine (NEA) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine (THAN), exhibited only partial or no separation when β-cyclodextrin (βCD) was used as chiral selector. The use of 18-crown-6 (18C6) as a second additive with βCD resulted in an enhanced separation. A molecular modeling study, using molecular mechanics and the semiempirical PM6 calculations, was used to help explaining the mechanism of the enantiodifferentiation and to predict the separation process. Optimization of the structures of the complexes by the PM6 method indicate that the poor separation obtained in the presence of the βCD chiral selector alone is due to the small binding energy differences (ΔΔE) of 4.7, 1.1 and 1.2 kcal mol(-1) for AI, NEA and THAN, respectively. In the presence of 18C6 it was suggested that a sandwich compound between 18C6, amine and βCD is formed. Theoretical calculations show that a significant increase in the binding energy is obtained for the sandwich compounds indicating strong hydrophobic and van der Waals interactions that show enhanced enantiodifferentiation.     

Novel molecularly imprinted microsphere using a single chiral monomer and chirality-matching (S)-ketoprofen template

We designed and synthesized a cinchonine derivative to be used as a novel chiral monomer. It was employed in a dual role of functional monomer and cross-linking monomer, displaying multi-binding sites for the template (S)-ketoprofen. Monodisperse molecularly imprinted core-shell microspheres were prepared using surface imprinting method on silica gel. The results show a substantial synergistic effect in the enantioselective recognition, confirming our initial hypothesis. Computational simulation of the monomer and template pre-arrangement strongly supports our proposed chiral recognition mechanism for the imprinted microspheres.
