Abstract
A novel silica monolithic stationary phase functionalized with 3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyl ligands for pressurized CEC has been presented. The monolithic capillary columns were prepared by a sol-gel process in 75 microm id fused-silica capillaries and followed by a chemical modification. The diamino groups on the surface of the stationary phase are meant to generate the chromatographic surface and a substantial anodic EOF as well as to provide electrostatic interaction sites for charged solutes. The electrochromatographic characterization and column performance were evaluated by a variety of neutral and charged solutes. It was observed that the anodic EOF for the diamine-bonded monolith was greatly affected by the reaction time with 3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyltrimethoxysilane and the PEG amount in the sol-gel reaction mixture in addition to the mobile phase conditions. The monolithic stationary phase exhibited hydrophilic interaction chromatographic behavior toward neutral solutes. Good separations of various solutes including phenols, nucleic acid bases, nucleosides and nucleotides were achieved under different experimental conditions. Fast and efficient separations were obtained with high plate counts reaching more than 130,000 plates/m.
