The separation of a mixture containing five major opium alkaloids, namely morphine, codeine, thebaine, noscapine and papaverine has been investigated in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) mode using five different stationary phases: bare silica, zwitterion, aminopropyl, diol and cyanopropyl. In order to propose the appropriate column for separation and purification, retention behaviors of the five natural opioids have been studied on mentioned HILIC stationary phases. The mechanism of separation in diverse HILIC media, based on the formation of water-rich layer on surface of the HILIC stationary phases and the physicochemical properties of opium alkaloids, such as pKa (acidic pK) and the octanol-water distribution coefficient (log Do/w) are discussed. Chromatographic responses including modified limit of detection LOD, signal to noise ratio (S/N), and defined modified R have considered for suggestion of the suitable column for quantitative/qualitative and preparative purposes. According to the obtained results, diol stationary phase is best suited for analytical chromatography, whereas bare silica and zwitterionic stationary phases are appropriate for preparative applications.

Experimental and computational analysis of lipophilicity and plasma protein binding properties of potent tacrine based cholinesterase inhibitors.

The lipophilicity of thirteen tacrine/piperidine-4-carboxamide derivatives was assessed using reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography (RP-TLC) with MeOH and acetonitrile (ACN) as organic modifiers. Among the parameters evaluated, the R and C values obtained using MeOH were identified as the most reliable for characterizing the lipophilicity of the investigated compounds. The observed differences in lipophilicity among the derivatives resulted from a delicate interplay of substituent effects (hydrophobicity, polarity, steric hindrance, and electronic effects), positional influence, and characteristics of the organic modifier.

Algebraic Depletion Interactions in Two-Temperature Mixtures.

The phase separation that occurs in two-temperature mixtures, which are driven out of equilibrium at the local scale, has been thoroughly characterized, but much less is known about the depletion interactions that drive it. Using numerical simulations in dimension 2, we show that the depletion interactions extend beyond two particle diameters in dilute systems, as expected at equilibrium, and decay algebraically with an exponent -4. Solving for the N-particle distribution function in the stationary state, perturbatively in the interaction potential, we show that algebraic correlations with an exponent -2d arise from triplets of particles at different temperatures in spatial dimension d.

Oligonucleotides (ONs) are an increasingly popular category of molecules in the pharmaceutical landscape, particularly attractive for the treatment of genetic and rare diseases. However, analyzing these molecules presents significant challenges, due to their highly hydrophilic nature, multiple negative charges, and the presence of closely related impurities resulting from the complex solid-phase synthesis process. Ion pairing reverse-phase liquid chromatography (IP-RPLC) is the preferred technique for ONs analysis but is not ideal for mass spectrometry (MS) coupling.

The study of green analytical chemistry has garnered significant attention in the context of mitigating global environmental contamination. In this study, we present two methodologies for environmentally friendly chromatography that enable simultaneous and specific determination of Saxagliptin (SAX), metformin (MET), and a pharmacopoeial impurity of MET known as melamine (MEL). The initial method employed in this study is High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC), which utilized 60 F 254 silica gel-coated Mark HPTLC plates on aluminum sheets as the stationary phase.
