1 HPLC Method Development: Standard Practices and New Columns Agilent Technologies February 7

2 What are Some Standard Method Development Practices?. Follow preferred method development scheme and do hands-on method development based on selectivity changing parameters i.e. ph, column, or mobile phase types. Use method development software run a few predictive runs and get prediction for best method 3. Evaluate multiple columns/multiple mobile phases in a manual or automated fashion, detere best results (i.e. using valve switching to change between columns, software to track peaks etc.) Practice # is used by many and incorporates hands on learning. It requires nothing special to make it work, so we will work through a method development scheme for this practice.

3 What Makes a Good Starting Point for Hands-on Method Development?. Choose a C8 column many choices, well known technologies a) A short column imizes method development time b) Smaller particle sizes provide the resolution needed in a short time c) Newer C8 column choices can improve results based on efficiency, improved peak shape. Choose a simple mobile phase reliable, works with many samples a) Phosphate buffer ph 3, TFA, or formic acid in aqueous portion b) Acetonitrile or methanol as organic modifier 3. Adjust mobile phase to get the desired retention and resolution a) Adequate resolution of all peaks, Rs. requires highest efficiency b) Retention of first peak preferred to be at least k= c) Analysis time below utes shorter d) Newer column choices, short columns with small particle sizes can provide more efficiency in resolution in a very short time, speeding up method development

4 Typical Method Development Parameters - Effects of Selectivity, Efficiency, and Retention on Resolution Selectivity Impacts Resolution Most Change bonded phase Typical Method Development Parameters Change mobile phase Plates are easiest to increase Resolution. 3. Increase N Increase Alpha Increase k'... R s = N ½ / ( -)/ k /(k +) Plates: Alpha: k :

5 Small Differences in α Selectivity - Can Provide Large Differences in Resolution Eclipse Plus C8 Greatest Resolution for this sample α Resolution peaks, peaks,3..97 caffeine sulfamethoxazole barbital 3 Eclipse Plus C8 α Resolution peaks, peaks, Cols:.6 x 5, 5 um m.p.: % MeOH, 6% water 3 Eclipse XDB-C8 α Resolution peaks,.3.5 peaks,

6 What Do We Want to Base Our Complete Method Development Scheme On? (Beyond the Start) Changing selectivity to improve resolution with the two key parameters mobile phase and bonded phase Mobile phase ( st choice to change because it s easy) Mobile phase organic modifier (ACN, MeOH etc.) Mobile phase ph over a wide ph range ph - if needed Bonded phase (provides lots of optimization potential) Many choices other than C8 C8, Phenyl, CN AQ for aqueous mobile phases Choose new columns with best peak shape performance

7 New Column Choices To Use for Standard Method Development. Shorter columns with smaller particle sizes Rapid Resolution High Throughput Columns (RRHT) with a.8um particle size 5mm or shorter for fastest method development Longer columns for maximizing efficiency Many bonded phase choices for a complete method development scheme. Improved bonded phases for superior performance Better peak shape and efficiency result in more resolution Critical to the best methods New Eclipse Plus columns can deliver improved performance

8 . Start with Short RRHT C8 Columns with Highest Efficiency for Fastest Method Development Column:.6 x 5mm,.8um Mobile Phase: A=.% Formic Acid, B=ACN +.%Formic Acid (95:5) Flow rate:.5 ml/ Inj. Vol: ul Sample: Xanthines:. -methylxanthine,.,3-dimethyluric acid, 3. 3,7-dimethylxanthine,.,7-dimethylxanthine 3 RRHT SB-C8.6 x 5mm,.8 um.5.5.5, 3 RRHT SB-CN.6 x 5mm,.8 um The C8 gives the most effective resolution and with a.6 x 5mm,.8um column the initial results are achieved in just a couple of utes, with the highest efficiency. The 5mm length is short and fast methods can be approximated or completed in just utes!!

9 . Start Method Development with RRHT Columns: Different ZORBAX RRHT C8 Bonded Phases for Max Selectivity st choice Best Resolution & Peak Shape nd choice Good alternate selectivity due to non-endcapped Eclipse Plus C8 StableBond SB-C8 Mobile phase: (69:3) ACN: water Flow.5 ml/.

Rs,3 : ZORBAX RRHT has at least 8% more efficiency than Luna HST C8() That means greater than baseline resolution when needed.

11 . Choose New Eclipse Plus C8 for Superior Efficiency and Peak Shape Analysis on Other C8 Poor sensitivity Due to broad peaks Peaks do not tail, but are distorted. Analysis on Eclipse Plus Better Sensitivity Sharp, Efficient Peaks Excellent peak shape

12 How Do We Implement These New Column Choices in the Method Development Process? Follow a method development process around standard practices ONLY when the first steps allow you to incorporate new products for fast, good results! A method development scheme based on simple strategies for optimizing selectivity and resolution can incorporate new products. The 3 key parameters must be: mobile phase mobile phase ph bonded phase

13 First Steps in a Method Development Scheme Choose Eclipse Plus C8 Low ph Adjust %ACN for.5 <k < Band spacing problems Change % organic Band spacing problems Change organic modifier Adjust % organic for.5 < k < Band spacing problems Change bonded phase C8, CN, Phenyl, other RP STEP STEP STEP 3 STEP Select a high quality C8 or C8 bonded phase first for good retention and resolution with typical acidic, basic and neutral samples. Optimize the organic component of the mobile phase to change selectivity Choose alternate bonded phases to completely optimize method development when method development goals are not met on C8 With new RRHT column choices, these steps can be done quickly, making it possible to truly find the best method.

14 Let s Look at Method Development of These Compounds propranolol pindolol dipyridamole β-blocker Anti-arrhythmic Vasodilator Ca+ channel blocker disopyramide diltiazem

18 Why Do We Recommend Changing Organic Modifier Before Changing the Bonded Phase? It s easy acetonitrile and methanol are readily available! It works on any bonded phase, so it gives you a tool to possible optimize a separation no matter the column choice!

19 Start at Low ph on Eclipse Plus-C8 RRHT Cardiac Drugs with Methanol, Changing Organic Modifier Column: ZORBAX RRHT Eclipse Plus C8,.6 x 5 mm,.8 m Mobile Phase: A: 5 mm NaH PO, ph 3.

Ethynodiol Diacetate (.39 g/ l) Mobile Phase: 7.5:5.5 MeOH:Water

22 Why Is Changing the Bonded Phase Effective? Differences in interactions between polar and non-polar compounds. Other types of interactions with a bonded phase can be exploited (pi-pi interactions etc.) These all change with bonded phase! Changing the bonded phase can improve selectivity/ resolution, reduce analysis time When you use RRHT (.8um) columns the comparison of bonded phases can be done quickly!! You must have multiple RRHT column choices available

23 Bonded Phase Selectivity Differences in 3% ACN RRHT SB-CN.6 x 5 mm,.8 m RRHT SB-Phenyl.6 x 5 mm,.8 m RRHT SB-AQ.6 x 5 mm,.8 m RRHT Eclipse Plus C8.6 x 5 mm,.8 m 5 Different bonded phases compared Analysis time of each run is only utes Comparison done in optimum % organic The fast runs mean a comparison can be done even if you have a good separation on the C8 More chances to optimize!

The RRHT column is delivering the efficiency and resolution expected, but the C8 bonded phase may be the best choice.

25 Selectivity of Polar Phases Provides Optimum Separation of Steroids Versus Non-Polar C8/C ,5 Column: ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-Phenyl Mobile Phase: 8:5 ACN:Water Column: ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C8 3 6 Column: ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-CN Mobile Phase: 35:65 ACN:Water Mobile Phase: 5:6 ACN:Water Column: ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C8 Mobile Phase: 6: ACN:Water Column Dimensions:.6 x 5 mm, 5 m Flow Rate:. ml/ Injection Volume:. l Column Temperature: 5 C Detector: UV, nm Sample:.

Ethynodiol Diacetate (.39 g/ l) Eclipse XDB-CN is the optimum bonded phase the only one that can resolve all the components in under utes.

26 So then Why is ph Critical to Method Development? What compounds are ph sensitive? How does ph affect retention and resolution? How does ph influence method development? How does ph influence column choice?

27 When Does ph affect Resolution? Compound Type Comparison non-polar polar ionizable naphthalene benzyl alcohol benzoic acid ph 3 acenaphthene nitrobenzene benzanilide ph Time () Time () Time () Ionizable compounds acids and bases can change retention and selectivity most with changes in ph

28 Change in Retention with ph for Ionizable Compounds is Key to Method Development Non-charged analytes have better retention (i.e. acids at low ph and bases at high ph) Silanols on silica ionize at mid-ph, increasing retention of basic analytes (i.e possible ion-exchange interactions) Choose mobile phase ph to optimize retention and selectivity during method development Eclipse Plus can be used over a wide ph range Other choices exist for high ph

29 Change in Retention with ph for Ionizable Compounds is Compound Dependent Non-charged analytes have better retention (i.e. acids at low ph and bases at high ph) retention time () 8 6 Acetylsalicylic acid Pyridine Codeine Procainamide Amphetae Caffeine pka 3.5 pka 5. pka 8. pka 9. pka 9.9 pka Mobile Phase: 5% MeOH: 55% mm Phosphate Buffer ph.5 ph 6.5 ph 8 ph.5 ph

30 Retention vs. ph for Basic Antihistaes - Less Variation in Retention at Low ph 5 Column: Eclipse XDB-C8.6 x 5 mm, 5 m Mobile Phase: 75% 5 mm phosphate buffer 5% Acetonitrile Doxylae Chlorphenirae Triprolidine Diphenhydrae pka., 9. pka 9. pka 6.5 pka 9. Retention Volume ml 3 No change in retention in this range ph Slight changes in ph may dramatically change retention and selectivity Always evaluate retention changes with ph during method development

31 Therefore ph Should be Considered a Key Method Development Parameter A single column can be used over a wide ph range making selectivity comparisons quick and reliable when ph is changed. May have better selectivity in the ph range 3 8. Other bonded phases can be reconsidered for mid ph, just like at low ph

32 Method Development Scheme Adding Mid ph From low ph ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C8 ph 7 (6-9) - 5 mm buffer, Adjust %ACN for.5 <k < STEP 5 Band spacing problems STEP 6 Change % organic Band spacing problems STEP 7 Change organic modifier (MeOH) Adjust % organic for.5 < k < Restart at STEP 6 Band spacing problems STEP 8 Try Eclipse Plus Phenyl-Hexyl, Eclipse XDB-CN, Phenyl or Bonus-RP Restart at STEP 5 Mid ph can provide better selectivity It may be more compatible with your sample The process for investigating mid ph is the same as for low ph Eclipse Plus delivers outstanding performance at mid ph Alternate bonded phases should also be considered if improved selectivity is desired

33 Eclipse Plus Columns Are Ideal for Method Development at Low and Mid ph Can be used from ph -9 Accommodates method development in low and mid ph ranges Allows ph sensitive separations to be optimized Excellent peak shape and efficiency achieved with new Eclipse Plus material

34 Eclipse Plus Can Be Used Over a Wide ph Range (ph 9) to Optimize Selectivity ph.7.% formic acid/acn procainamide. buspirone 3. pioglitazone. eletriptan 5. dipyridamole 6. diltiazem, 7. furosemide 6 8 ph.8 NH AC/acn 6 Selectivity and resolution can change with ph ph 7 NaPO 7 /acn 3 6 Eclipse Plus can be used with many mobile phases and ph s Conditions: Column: Eclipse Plus C8.6 x mm, 5um Gradient: 9% in utes Detection: UV 5 nm

Eclipse Plus can be used under both conditions

36 Selectivity Differences at Mid ph Key to Resolution Eclipse Plus Performs well at Low and Mid ph Eclipse Plus C8.6 x 75 mm 3.5 µm mm phosphate buffer, ph 3. 3 N=57 TF: Famotidine. Cimetidine 3. Pirenzipine Eclipse Plus C8.6 x 75 mm 3.5 µm mm phosphate buffer, ph 7. N=8 TF:.99 3 Columns: as listed Mobile Phase: % MeOH, 8% mm phosphate, ph as listed Flow Rate: ml/. Detection: UV 3 semi micro flow cell N=79 TF: For this sample resolution is not possible at ph 3, but is at ph 7 Eclipse Plus was used to experiment at both ph s

37 Try an Alternate Selectivity at Mid-pH if Needed One choice for alternate selectivity is Bonus-RP. The alkyl-amide bonded phase provides very different selectivity at mid-ph Bonus-RP Eclipse XDB-C8 3 3 Mobile Phase: 75% mm NaCitrate, ph 6 5% MeOH Flow Rate: Temperature: Detection: Injection Vol: Sample:. ml/ Ambient UV 5 nm 3 L Cephalosporins. Cephalexin. Cephaclor 3. Cephuroxime. Cephoxitin 6 8 Time() Mid ph was the second ph region to consider. High ph can also be considered if low or mid ph did not resolve all analytes.

38 Method Development at High ph a Third Choice From Mid ph ZORBAX Extend-C8 STEP 9 ph.5 (9-) 5 mm ammonia, or TEA, or 5 mm organic or borate buffers T = 5 C (ambient C) Adjust MeOH for.5 <k < Reasons to Consider High ph Increase retention of basic compounds by analyzing them in noncharged form Improve selectivity Band spacing problems STEP Change organic modifier (ACN or THF) Adjust for.5 < k< Try different HPLC mode

39 High ph Increases Retention of Antihistaes Extend-C8 Column: ZORBAX Extend-C8,.6 x 5 mm, 5 m Mobile Phase: See Below Flow Rate:. ml/ Temperature: RT Detection: UV 5 nm Sample:l:. Maleate. Scopolae 3. Pseudoephedrine. Doxylae 5. Chlorphenirae 6. Triprolidine 7. Diphenhydrae ph 7 3% mm Na HPO 7% MeOH,3 5 7 ph 3% mm TEA 7% MeOH 3 t 5 R = 8.5 t R = Time() 5 Time() The retention of this sample of basic compounds increases at high ph.

40 Conclusions New column choices, like.8um RRHT columns and Eclipse Plus bonded phases can enhance typical approaches to method development. These columns provide fast analysis, allowing more options to be considered quickly, and with superior performance the best results are readily achievable. Since many compounds are ionizable, and retention and selectivity of these compounds are greatly impacted by ph, a method development scheme for LC methods should encourage varying ph. Any method development scheme should also include the use of different bonded phases. Different bonded phases and columns can be selected by ph as well. The third key aspect of method development is mobile phase and organic modifier and this is an effective tool for many separations.
