Abstract

A new polymeric reagent containing the 6-aminoquinoline (6-AQ) tag was developed and applied for the off-line derivatization of amines and amino acids in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The synthesis and characterization of this polymeric reagent are described. An authentic external standard of a typical amine was synthesized and characterized for the determination of the derivatization efficiency. All amines had a derivatization efficiency higher than 50%; the derivatization of amino acids was performed under optimized phase-transfer catalysis reaction conditions. Derivatized amines and amino acids were separated under conventional reversed-phase conditions and determined by UV and FL detectors. To investigate the practical applications, this polymeric reagent was also used to derivatize protein hydrolysates.
