5 Presentation Objectives Understand effect of roles of Selectivity and Column Efficiency i in improving i Resolution Column Selection Effect of Small Particles - Cost and Benefit Page 5

6 Mechanism of Chromatographic Separation Analyte partitions between stationary phase and mobile phase, Selectivity is obtained by difference in physical properties of the analytes Page 6

7 Some Basic Chromatography Parameters Retention Factor (k), Capacity Factor (k ) Selectivity or Separation Factor (α) Column Efficiency as Theoretical Plates (N) Resolution (R s ) Page 7

8 Definition of Resolution t = R-2 -t R R-1 = t R s (w 2 + w )/2 1 w Resolution is a measure of the ability to separate two components Page 8

9 Resolution Determined by 3 Key Parameters Efficiency, Selectivity and Retention The Fundamental Resolution Equation N = Column Efficiency Column length and particle size α = Selectivity Mobile phase and stationary phase, α = k 2/ k 1 k = Retention Factor Mobile phase and stationary phase, k = (t R t 0 )/ t 0 Page 9

10 Chromatographic Terms Resolution The distance between two neighboring peaks R = 1.5 is baseline resolution R = 2 is highly desirable during method development R s = (t Resolution is improved by increasing R2 t R1 ) difference in t R increasing α Resolution is improved by reducing peak (w 1 + w 2 )/2 width - increasing N Original t 0 > N value < k values > k values >α value Page 10

14 Major Separation Modes of HPLC There are four major separation modes that are used dto separate most compounds: Reversed-phase (RPLC) chromatography (most popular) Normal-phase (NPLC) and adsorption chromatography Ion exchange chromatography (IEX) Size exclusion chromatography (SEC, GPC).Let s look briefly at each mode Page 14

15 Normal Phase or Adsorption Chromatography Key Points Column packing is polar silica (strongest)>amino>diol>cyano (weakest) Mobile phase is non-polar hexane, iso-octane, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, etc. Polar compounds more retained Retention decreases as polarity of mobile phase increases Reasons to choose normal phase Analyze very hydrophobic (or lipophilic) compounds. Isomer separation. Sample injection solvent is non-polar. Recovery in non-polar solvents is desirable. Separation of Nitroanilines on HPLC Column packed with silica gel using hexane (mobile phase component A) mixed with methylene chloride (mobile phase component B) Page 15

16 Hydrophilic Interaction Chromatography (HILIC) Page 16

17 Why HILIC Is Used Retention of polar components Similar to NPLC but with aq mobile phase (General reversal of elution from RPLC) Variety of different stationary phases available MS compatible May simplify sample prepp Page 17

18 Typical Mobile Phase Water (at least 2-3%, ~ 25%)/ACN Buffer (e.g., AmOAc) ph control, if necessary Page 18

19 Typical Stationary Phases - Polar Silica Amine Diol Amide Page 19

20 Typical Elution Order for Test Compounds on HILIC Column RPLC Column Test Mixture mau 4-chloronitrobenzene 40 Column 4.6 x 150 mm Mobile phase 75% ACN: 25% H2O 35 Flow Rate 0.5 ml/ml Phenol Col Temp 25 C 30 Injection Volume 5 µl Naphthalene Uracil 1. Notice Uracil normally unretained in RPLC retained ed in HILIC min 2. Notice completely different retention order than in RPLC 20

21 Ion Exchange Chromatography In ion exchange: Column packing contains ionic groups, (e.g. sulfonate, tetraalkylammonium) t l Mobile phase is an aqueous buffer (e.g. phosphate, formate, etc.) Used infrequently Similarities to ion-pair chromatography Well suited to the separation of inorganic and organic anions and cations in aqueous solution. Basic proteins on strong cation exchanger (-SO 3- ) 1. RNA polymerase 2. Chymotrypsinogen 3. Lysozyme Page 21

22 Ion-pair Chromatography Allows Retention of Ionized Compounds under RPLC Conditions polar non-polar - COO COO -+ IP Amphiphilic compound is added to mobile phase - Quaternary amines for anions - Sulfonates for cations Electrostatic interaction with oppositely charged analyte to increase retention of analyte in RPLC Page 22

23 Advantages Separation of very polar compounds in RPLC Some variables can be varied continuously (ph, [buffer], [IP], %B, Temp) Allows mixed mode retention - Separate ionic compounds (IEX) - Separate non-ionized compounds (RPLC) Page 23

24 Disadvantages Higher level of complexity Larger region of sub-optimal performance Many IP reagents are non-volatile, need volatile IP reagents for MS Slow equilibrium (too slow for gradients) Difficult to wash from column Need to have high purity IP reagents Poor reproducibility Page 24

25 Comparison Separation of Catecholamines: Reversed-Phase and Ion-Pair HPLC amine V 0 acid amine V 0 amine acid Note that t amines (cations) are more retained and acids (anions) are less retained with anionic ion-pairing agent. Page 25

26 Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) There are two modes: non-aqueous SEC [sometimes termed Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC)] aqueous SEC [sometimes referred to as Gel Filtration Chromatography (GFC)] No interaction ti between the sample compounds and packing material Molecules diffuse into pores of a porous medium Molecules are separated depending on their size relative to the pore size molecules larger than the pore opening do not diffuse into the particles while molecules smaller than the pore opening enter the particle and are separated large molecule elute first, smaller molecules elute later The mobile phase is chosen mainly to dissolve the analyte Used mainly for polymer characterization ti and for proteins. Gel Permeation Chromatogram of Polybutadiene polymer on non- aqueous SEC (GPC) column; The monomers elute after the polymer. Column: PLgel mixed-d gel Mobile phase: Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Page 26

27 Mechanism of SEC A Molecules (A,B) Enter Pores B Full entry Partial entry -SiOH + RCOO _ Molecules must freely enter and exit pores to be separated. Largest molecules elute first, followed by intermediate size molecules and finally the smallest molecules elute last. C -SiO _...

28 Presentation Outline Common terms & definitions Overview of Major HPLC Modes Reversed-Phase Chromatography Column Dimensions - Length, Particle Size Page 28

29 Reversed-Phase Chromatography (RPLC) Principle: Partition of analytes between polar mobile phase and non-polar stationary phase Nonpolar (nonspecific) interactions of analyte with hydrophobic (or lipophilic) stationary phase: C18, C8, Phenyl, C3, etc. Different sorption affinities between analytes results in their separation More polar analytes are less retained Analytes with larger hydrophobic part are retained longer Mobile phase: water (buffer) + water-miscible organic solvent e.g. MeOH, ACN Can be used for non-polar, polar, ionizable and ionic molecules Gradient elution is often used - re-equilibration times are acceptable Page 29

30 Column Selection Strategy Purpose of Analysis Chemistry of Analytes Sample Matrix Detection Page 30

31 So What Bonded-Phase Do I Choose? Lipophilic Compound (e.g., > 20% Organic in Mobile Phase) C18 C8 Phenyl CN offers the most retention, maybe too much for some samples less retentive than C18, but with similar selectivity in most cases significantly less retentive for non-polar compounds but retains polar compounds, so reduces analysis time for mixture if polar/non polar least retentive, changes in selectivity, good for reducing analysis time with late eluters and avoiding gradient separations Page 31

32 So What Bonded-Phase Do I Choose? Hydrophilic Compound (e.g., < 20% Organic in Mobile Phase) C18 C8 Phenyl C3 CN may not have sufficient retention, lower limit to %B in mobile phase often provides a little more retention than C18 with similar selectivity most retentive with changes in selectivity similar to Phenyl in retention but some changes in selectivity from C18, C8 and Phenyl least retentive, definite changes in selectivity, good resolution Page 32

46 If α Has the Most Effect, Why Focus on N? It s Easy to Predict High plate number (N) provides: Sharp and narrow peaks Better detection Peak capacity to resolve complex samples But Resolution increases only with the square root of the plate number. Plate number increase is limited by experimental conditions (analysis time,..pressure) Selectivity (α) helps best but Is difficult to predict, so method development is slower (experience helps, model retention) Note: Software supported, optimization for separation of multi-component mixtures can reduce method development time (ChromSword, DryLab) Page 46

51 Column Dimensions Trade-Off s Smaller particles, proportional increase in efficiency (N) R s increases as square root of N Smaller particles, pressure increase as (1/d p ) 2 Longer columns (L), proportion increase in: - Analysis time - Solvent usage - N - Pressure To decrease peak width Increase N, Decrease L Smaller particles come with price - Increase pressure - Less forgiving Page 51

52 Summary HPLC is a powerful analytical tool There are a variety of separation modes Most applications are RP Choice of stationary phase can affect separation by changing g selectivity (α) Efficiency (N) can be improved in predictable, brute force way: - Increase column length, - Decrease particle size Smaller particles come with price - Increase pressure - Less forgiving Page 52
