Chromatographic separation of some metal ions on NTA-impregnated thin-layer plates

Summary NTA (nitrilo triacetic acid) has been used as an impregnating agent for an efficient TLC separation of twelve metal ions, using a mixture of 5% aq ammonia, ethanol acetone and acetic acid as the solvent system and dithizone (0.5% in chloroform) for visualization.     

Occurrence and distribution of metals and porphyrins in Nigerian coal minerals

The metal contents of Nigerian coal minerals were analyzed using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Calcium, Na, and Fe occurred as the major elements with concentrations ranging from 9 782 μg/g for Ca to 432 μg/g for Na whereas K, Mg, Mn, Ni, Cr, Zn, Pb, and Cu, which occurred at trace levels ranged from 673.73 μg/g for Mg to 2.97 μg/g for Mn. The results of the quantitative analysis of porphyrins extracted from the coal minerals showed that Onyeama coal has the highest amount of porphyrins (ca～0.96 μg/g) while Okpara has the lowest (ca～0.30 μg/g). The porphyrins were qualitatively characterized by a combination of thin layer chromatography (TLC), infrared, and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometers. The results of the mid infrared analysis (MIR) showed the presence of absorption bands at 3 440 cm～1～3 450 cm-1 and 1 640 cm-1～1 680 cm-1 , which are owing to the stretching vibrations of N - H and C = C of aromatics, with C- H out of plane (oop) bending vibrations at wavenumbers less than 900 cm-1, all of which are characteristic absorptions of porphyrin free base. The ultraviolet-visible data showed prominent peaks at ～400 nm(Soret band) and at wavelength ranges of 535 nm～550 nm(β-band) and 565 nm～ 600 nm (α-band) for the coal porphyrins analyzed. The geochemical significance of the metals and porphyrins in coal minerals are discussed.     

Preparative isolation and characterization of zinc dialkyldithiophosphates from commercial antiwear additives

An automated HPLC separation methodology was developed for the preparative separation of ZnDTP components from commercial lubricant antiwear additives. Using silica columns that can be reactivated by elution with appropriate solvents, gram quantities of additives can be isolated. The isolated materials are useful for carrying out further mechanistic and synthetic studies. Preliminary estimations suggest that separation repeatability and fraction recoveries have acceptable levels. Qualitative characterization of isolated ZnDTP mixtures was achieved by IR, TLC‐FID, and RP‐HPLC. IR is useful for assessing the nature of ZnDTP alcoholic moieties. TLC‐FID provides a check on the preparative HPLC separation efficiency. RP‐HPLC on octadecylsil‐silica columns provides fingerprints for isolated commercial ZnDTP active concentrates. Fingerprinting on small bore HPLC columns proved advantageous compared with conventional columns.     

Thin-layer chromatography of 1,2,4-triazoles on silica gel

Summary The TLC behaviour of N-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoles and their derivatives on silica gel plates has been studied using simple solvents. Isomers were very well distinguished, resulting from different activities due to hydrogen bonding. A mixture of seven compounds has been resolved with diethylether-n-butylamine-pyridine (91.4:7.7:0.9).     

Processes dominating forced-flow thin-layer chromatography

Summary The effect of the vapor phase and other special influences on thin-layer chromatography have been investigated. Comparisons were made of the relationships of time vs. developing distance and flow rate vs. efficiency using a planar arrangement of the thin-layer. Covering the layer facilitates the reproducibility and of the migration front but the most effective optimization step for thin-layer chromatography is provided by forced-flow of the mobile phase. It is suggested that planar chromatography with a covered sorbent layer and using a pressurised solvent stream should be calledforced-flow thin-layer chromtatography.
