Plates for thin-layer chromatography with adsorption-immobilized reagents in chemical test analysis methods

Abstract

The use of plates for thin-layer chromatography (TLC) with adsorption-immobilized organic reagents in chemical test methods for analysis is considered. Triarylmethane, triazine, eirodine, acridine, and rhodamine dyes are used for immobilization. The degree of retention of the reagents is 52–98%. It is found that the absorption spectra of these reagents on TLC plates exhibit a hypsochromic shift of absorption bands by 8–30 nm in comparison with their absorption spectra in solutions. The retention is higher for the reagents that exhibit a hypsochromic shift of absorption bands on TLC plates. The sorption isotherms of the reagents on TLC plates are obtained and analyzed. Test methods have been developed for the determination of 1–200 mg/L Au(III) and 0.1–5 M acids and alkalies with the use of reagent TLC plates. The relative standard deviation of the results of analysis is no larger than 10%; the time of analysis is 3–7 min.
