Abstract
A novel polymer-based polar stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) is described. It was obtained by grafting lysine and acrylamide onto poly (glycidyl methacrylate-divinylbenzene) (GMA-DVB) microspheres via ring-opening reaction of epoxy groups and free radical polymerization with pendant double bonds of the microspheres. Multiple types of polar groups including zwitterionic (carboxylate and amine), amide and diol onto the microspheres make them highly hydrophilic. It showed typical HILIC character and good separation performance towards model polar analytes. Negligible bleed level under gradient elution mode (up to 50% fraction of water) was observed. It also exhibited specific separation selectivity to ionic analytes and simultaneous separation of anions and cations could be achieved in ideal electrostatic selectivity elution order, e.g. I−< NO3− <Br− <Cl− or K+< Na+ < Li+.
