Abstract
A new type of fullerene-containing polysiloxane was synthesized by reacting [60]fullerene with azidopropyl polysiloxane directly. The polysiloxanes have been used successfully as stationary phases for capillary gas chromatography. They displayed high column efficiency, wide operational temperature and high thermostability, and exhibited unique selectivity for many organic substances, such as alkanes, alcohols, ketones and aromatic compounds. The stationary phase was especially suitable for separation of high boiling-point compounds like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and phthalic esters, etc. It was also found that some alcoholic or aromatic positional isomers could be well separated on the column. The influence of the fullerene content on the separation was also investigated.
