Preparation of pyrenebutyric acid-modified magnesia-zirconia stationary phases using phosphonate as spacers and their application to the separation of fullerenes

A novel method was proposed for the preparation of pyrenebutyric acid-modified magnesia-zirconia stationary phases. Pyrenebutyric acid was grafted to magnesia-zirconia composites with different pore sizes via the sodium salt of cis-(3-methyloxiranyl)phosphonic acid (fosfomycin) as spacers. Aminated fosfomycin was first absorbed onto the surface of magnesia-zirconia composites during the preliminary step to provide amino and hydroxy reactive sites. And then the pyrenebutyric acid was covalently attached to the amine or hydroxyl groups via amide or ester bonds. The resulting stationary phases were characterized by elemental analysis, diffused reflectance FT-IR, nitrogen adsorption analysis and ¹³C solid state NMR spectra. The HPLC separation of fullerenes on the new stationary phases with different pore sizes was also investigated. The chromatographic performance showed a dependence on the pore size of the magnesia-zirconia matrix. Little retention of fullerenes was observed on the stationary phase with pore sizes about 4.5 nm. However, on the modified magnesia-zirconia with pore sizes about 10 nm, selectivity factors (α) for C₇₀/C₆₀ separation were determined to be 1.76, 2.29, 2.41, 3.10, with carbon disulfide, chlorobenzene, xylene and toluene as mobile phases, respectively. And the high solubility of fullerenes in these solvents dramatically increased the overall potential with regard to preparative fullerene purification. Among the reported stationary phases with pyrene ligands, the pyrenebutyric acid-modified magnesia-zirconia (PYB-F-(ZrO₂-MgO)) with larger pore sizes exhibited the best selectivity for fullerenes. The thermodynamic and kinetic behavior of fullerenes was also examined.     

Optimized Separation of Nine Xanthones by Microemulsion Electrokinetic Chromatography

A microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography method has been firstly used for the separation of the therapeutically important xanthones from Securidaca inappendiculata. The separation of the nine xanthones was systematically optimized with respect to pH, composition of microemulsion,addition of cyclodextrins, applied voltage and column temperature. Baseline separation was successfully achieved for the nine xanthones, which was also compared with that by micellar electrokinetic chromtography.     

Separation of carbon nanotubes by frit inlet asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation

Flow field-flow fractionation (flow FFF), a separation technique for particles and macromolecules, has been used to separate carbon nanotubes (CNT). The carbon nanotube ropes that were purified from a raw carbon nanotube mixture by acidic reflux followed by cross-flow filtration using a hollow fiber module were cut into shorter lengths by sonication under a concentrated acid mixture. The cut carbon nanotubes were separated by using a modified flow FFF channel system, frit inlet asymmetrical flow FFF (FI AFIFFF) channel, which was useful in the continuous flow operation during injection and separation. Carbon nanotubes, before and after the cutting process, were clearly distinguished by their retention profiles. The narrow volume fractions of CNT collected during flow FFF runs were confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Experimentally, it was found that retention of carbon nanotubes in flow FFF was dependent on the use of surfactant for CNT dispersion and for the carrier solution in flow FFF. In this work, the use of flow FFF for the size differentiation of carbon nanotubes in the process of preparation or purification was demonstrated.

用新型AP树脂分离铑—铱和同时富集测定铑`铱`铂`钯

铑-铱分离-向被认为是最困难的课题之一,即使文献曾报道Rh-Ir的分离,但实际Rh并未与萃取剂或吸附剂反应,而是与非贵金属离子一同留在溶液中。我们曾用光谱半定量方法研究了AP树脂对Rh、Ir的吸附行为,结果是Rh不被吸附而Ir能被吸附。本文通过改变Rh的离子状态,使之能被AP树脂吸附完全,而与留在溶液中的非贵金属分离,然后在柱上用不同淋洗液再使Rh-Ir分离。

Randomized algorithms for the separation of point sets and for solving quadratic programs

A randomized algorithm for finding a hyperplane separating two finite point sets in the Euclidean space ^d and a randomized algorithm for solving linearly constrained general convex quadratic problems are proposed. The expected running time of the separating algorithm isO(dd! (m + n)), wherem andn are cardinalities of sets to be separated. The expected running time of the algorithm for solving quadratic problems isO(dd! s) wheres is the number of inequality constraints. These algorithms are based on the ideas of Seidel's linear programming algorithm [6]. They are closely related to algorithms of [8], [2], and [9] and belong to an abstract class of algorithms investigated in [1]. The algorithm for solving quadratic problems has some features of the one proposed in [7].This research was done when the author was supported by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Germany.On leave from the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics, Ural Department of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 620219 Ekaterinburg, S.
