A capillary electrochromatography (CEC) monolithic column with zwitterionic stationary phases was prepared by in situ polymerization of butyl methacrylate, ethylene dimethacrylate, methacrylic acid, and 2-(dimethyl amino) ethyl methacrylate in the presence of porogens. The stationary phases have zwitterionic functional groups, that is, both tertiary amine and acrylic acid groups, so the ionization of those groups on the zwitterionic stationary phase was affected by the pH values of the mobile phase, and further affects the strength and direction of the electroosmotic flow (EOF). Separations of alkylbenzenes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons based on the hydrophobic mechanism were obtained. Separation of various types of polar compounds, including phenols, anilines, and peptides, on the prepared column were performed under CEC mode with anodic and cathodic EOF, and different separation selectivities of those polar analytes were observed on the monolithic capillary column by using mobile phases with different pH values.

The present work reports on the preparation, characterization, and evaluation of a set of novel triphenyl-modified silica-based stationary phases without and with embedded ion-exchange sites for mixed-mode liquid chromatography. The three synthesized triphenyl phases differed in additionally incorporated ion-exchange sites. In one embodiment, allyltriphenylsilane was bonded to thiol-modified silica by thiol-ene click reaction, leading to particles with no ion-exchange sites.

The simultaneous separation of the enantiomers of six anticoagulant rodenticides, derived from 4-hydroxycoumarin, has been studied in this work. Ten different stationary phases (zwitterionic, Pirkle-type, polysaccharides and macrocyclic antibiotics derivatives) were evaluated by using supercritical fluid chromatography coupled to two different detectors (circular dichroism and mass spectrometry-single quadrupole). The effect of the type of organic modifier and temperature on the chiral separation was investigated, and the best results were obtained with the column Regis S,S-Whelk-O1 at 25 °C when using a gradient elution program with methanol as organic modifier.

The chemical structure of nine imidazolium sulfonate and triflimide zwitterionic liquids (ZILs) were systematically tuned to increase their thermal stability for gas chromatography (GC) separations. Substituents for imidazolium and 2-phenylimidazolium cation systems, comprised of alkyl, benzyl, and oligoether groups of varying chain lengths, were studied as stationary phases in GC. Propanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, and propanetriflimide anions were examined to understand the effect of linker length and nucleophilicity on ZIL thermal stability.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explored the effectiveness of five different HILIC stationary phases for retaining various polyphenols, discovering that silica-based supports generally did not perform well except for anthocyanins.
  • Retention of phenolics was most effective with zwitterionic, amide, and amino stationary phases, and the choice of mobile phase, particularly using formic acid instead of TFA, significantly influenced retention results.
  • The research highlighted the advantages of using mass spectrometry as a detector for quantifying polyphenols in complex natural extracts, particularly under conditions where resolution between compounds was difficult.

Context: The nature of double intermolecular proton transfer was studied with the ELF topological approach in two model dimers (the formic acid homodimer and the 1,2,3-triazole-guanidine heterodimer) under an oriented external electric field. It has been shown that each of the two dimers can have either a one-step (one transition state structure) or two-step (two transition state structures) reaction path, depending on the intensity and orientation of the external electric field. The presence of a singularly broad shoulder (plateau in the case of homodimer and plateau-like for heterodimer) around the formal transition state structure results from the strong asynchronicity of the reaction.
