Abstract

Two new copolymer-grafted silica stationary phases were prepared and employed in hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC). 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) are copolymerized with itaconic acid (IA) and acrylic acid (AA) respectively, via thiol-ene click reaction on silica surface with deep eutectic solvents (DES) as new solvents. The obtained poly(DMAEMA-co-itaconic acid)-grafted silica (Sil-PDM-PIA) and poly(DMAEMA-co-acrylic acid)-grafted silica (Sil-PDM-PAA) were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and solid-state 13C NMR spectra. Their hydrophilic interaction performances were evaluated by separating nucleosides, nucleobases, saccharides, and amino acids. Compared with previous reported poly(itaconic acid)-grafted silica (Sil-PIA) and poly(acrylic acid)-grafted silica (Sil-PAA) stationary phases, these two new copolymer-grafted silica performed higher selectivity and better separation for polar analytes in HILIC.
