Abstract
Hydrophobic anion exchangers were formed by cobonding both ionic and hydrophobic ligands to silica gel. These phases were used to separate single-stranded oligonucleotides and double-stranded DNA restriction fragments. By varying the ratio of n-octyldimethylsilane and either 3-chloropropyldimethylsilane or 4-chlorobutyldimethylsilane added during silanization a series of mixed-ligand or mixed-mode stationary phases was created. Concentration and ratio of bonded ligands were determined using a new gas chromatography fluorination method. Total ligand coverage was found to approach 2.1 ligands nm 2− for n-octyldimethylsilane. Bonding reproducibility for mixed-mode phases was good. Nucleic acid separations were achieved under gentle mobile phase conditions by using the stationary phase as an easily modifiable variable.
