Abstract
In response to the challenges associated with the chromatographic separation of polar compounds, this study aims to devise a solution by introducing a novel stationary phase. Hydrogels, characterized by a three-dimensional network structure, have aroused wide attention owing to its functional designability, multiple interaction sites and good adhesion, etc. In this work, an adhesive hydrogel functionalized silica stationary phase (Sil@PVA/TA) was synthesized using physical coating technique. Due to the co-existence of hydroxyl and benzene ring in the hydrogel structure, the obtained composites materials exhibited excellent separation performance for various of compounds and excellent column efficiency up to 71385.6 plates/m for thymidine. Furthermore, the hydrogel functionalized silica demonstrated superior selectivity to bare silica, diol-column and NH2-column for the separation of various of polar molecules, including, nucleosides/bases, alkaloids, organic acids, antibiotics and amino acids. Notably, for alkaloids, which frequently encounter peak tailing issues, Sil@PVA/TA demonstrated superior peak shape compared with C18 column. In short, this study successfully synthesized a hydrogel functionalized silica stationary phase, offering a novel method for the separation and analysis of polar compounds.

J Chromatogr A 2024; 1736:465381. [PMID: 39321754 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.465381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2024] [Revised: 09/09/2024] [Accepted: 09/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/27/2024]
Abstract
Under the principle of similar compatibility, researchers have developed various polarity extractants corresponding to a class of chemicals. Separating different polarities chemicals with one extractant effectively has become a novel research trend in separation science. Given the complexity of environmental sample matrices and the significant differences in polarity and solubility of various compounds, the introduction of hydrophilic groups to hydrophobic material skeletons can lead to sorbents with hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) property and thus improve their extraction performance for substances with different polarities. In this work, a hypercrosslinked polymer (HCPPz-TPB), designated as HLB, was synthesized by incorporating polar pyrazine and nonpolar triphenylbenzene molecules within each other. Subsequently, a core-shell magnetic composite material was obtained by encapsulating magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles in HCPPz-TPB. The material was applied as an adsorbent for magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) and combined with a high-performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array detector (HPLC-PDA) to enrich, separate, and detect seven polar contaminants in environmental water samples. The proposed approach, Fe3O4@SiO2@HCPPz-TPB-MSPE-HPLC-PDA, is characterized by its outstanding high sensitivity, low detection limits, wide linear range, and good reproducibility. The method demonstrated satisfactory linearity in the range of 0.05-2 μg mL-1 with R2 values between 0.9969 and 0.9997; the limits of detection (LOD) were observed to be within the range of 0.0019-0.016 μg L-1, and limits of quantification (LOQ) was observed to be within the range of 0.0064-0.054 μg L-1 range with good precision. The recoveries of the different contaminants in the environmental samples ranged from 83.61 to 116.46% (RSD≤10.56, n = 5). The new hydrophilic-lipophilic balance extractant is highly efficient, sensitive, and precise for extracting different polar pollutants. The findings demonstrate that the Fe3O4@SiO2@HCPPz-TPB display a remarkable affinity for multiple targets, driven by complex interactions including multi-stackings and hydrogen bonding as a sorbent. The synthesized Fe3O4@SiO2@HCPPz-TPB may be employed in diverse applications, including extraction, removal, and determination of diverse trace multi-target analytes in complex media.

Abstract
The high hydrophobicity and chemical inertness of poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) microspheres make their surface hydrophilic modification difficult. Here we describe a facile way to convert PS-DVB microspheres to hydrophilic, then can be used as polar stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography. This approach utilizes the grafting of an acrylamide-terminated lysine zwitterionic monomer onto PS-DVB microspheres via free radical polymerization. The obtained stationary phase shows good hydrophilicity and a typical retention mechanism of hydrophilic interaction chromatography toward several model polar analytes. It also exhibits obvious zwitterionic properties and is capable of separating cationic and anionic analytes simultaneously. The column shows negligible bleeding level, much superior to silica-based ones.

Abstract
A novel polymer-based polar stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) is described. It was obtained by grafting lysine and acrylamide onto poly (glycidyl methacrylate-divinylbenzene) (GMA-DVB) microspheres via ring-opening reaction of epoxy groups and free radical polymerization with pendant double bonds of the microspheres. Multiple types of polar groups including zwitterionic (carboxylate and amine), amide and diol onto the microspheres make them highly hydrophilic. It showed typical HILIC character and good separation performance towards model polar analytes. Negligible bleed level under gradient elution mode (up to 50% fraction of water) was observed. It also exhibited specific separation selectivity to ionic analytes and simultaneous separation of anions and cations could be achieved in ideal electrostatic selectivity elution order, e.g. I-< NO3-

Abstract
A novel composite hydrogel functionalized silica core-shell stationary phase was prepared by the surface modification of silica sphere. The successful synthesis of the new stationary phase (T-Sil@PAM/SA/UiO-66-NH2) was proven by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), etc. Due to the coexistence of amide, hydroxyl, long carbon chain and UiO-66-NH2 in composite hydrogel shell, the obtained stationary phase can be used in hydrophilic/reversed-phase liquid chromatography with multiple retention mechanisms, such as hydrophilic, hydrophobic and π - π interactions. The chromatographic retention behavior of T-Sil@PAM/SA/UiO-66-NH2 demonstrated that the new stationary phase showed excellent separation performance for both polar analytes (such as alkaloids, saccharides, etc.) and nonpolar analytes (such as substituted benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs), etc.). Furthermore, compared with NH2 column and commercial C18 column, the T-Sil@PAM/SA/UiO-66-NH2 exhibited a certain superiority. Moreover, the relative standard deviation (RSD) of PAHs' retention time with eight replicates consecutive elution was found to range from 0.03% to 0.17%. Therefore, the successful use of T-Sil@PAM/SA/UiO-66-NH2 in mixed‑mode liquid chromatography expanded the potential applications of hydrogels in the field of separation.

Abstract
To expand the application of pillararene in chromatographic separation, we designed and fabricated a pillar[5]quinone-amine polymer coated silica through quinone-amine reaction by facile one-pot synthesis method, which was applied as a stationary phase for high-performance liquid chromatography. Separation of hydrophobic compounds, hydrophilic compounds, halogenated aromatic compounds, and 11 aromatic positional isomers was achieved successfully in this stationary phase. Reverse-phase separation mode and hydrophilic-interaction separation mode were proved to exist, indicating the potential application of the mix-mode stationary phase. Studies of chromatographic retention behavior and molecular simulation showed that multiple interactions might play an important role in the separation process, including hydrophobic interaction, hydrogen-bonding interaction, aromatic π-π interaction, electron donor-acceptor interaction, and host-guest interaction. Column repeatability and stability were tested, which showed relative standard deviations of retention time less than 0.2% for continuous 11 injections, and the durability relative standard deviations of retention time were less than 0.91% after 90 days. This novel design strategy would broaden the application of pillararene-based covalent organic polymer in chromatography and separation science.

Abstract
Polymer modified silica materials are widely used as stationary phases in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC), whereas a stationary phase with excellent performance is highly desired. In this study, vinyl modified silica was first synthesized through a silane coupling reaction, and then a polyacrylamide modified silica (PAM-SIL) stationary phase was successfully prepared using acrylamide as a copolymer monomer via free radical polymerization. The retention behaviors of polar analytes on the stationary phase under various chromatographic conditions, including acetonitrile content, buffer concentration and pH values were investigated, and a typical hydrophilic interaction retention mechanism was inferred. Exceptionally, the separation performance of the stationary phases could be regulated by controlling the polymer structure. Model analytes separated rapidly on the stationary phase which has an optimal grafting amount of vinyl, with the highest number of theoretical plates of orotic acid reaching 119,966/m. While the stationary phases with high acrylamide concentrations exhibited enhanced retention behavior and higher resolution for analytes. The adjustable separation performance will have huge potential in future separation and analysis applications.

Abstract
One of the fundamental attributes of a liquid chromatography column is its stability when exposed to acidic and basic mobile phases. However, there have been relatively few reports to date on the stability of hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) columns. Here, we report the results of stability evaluations carried out for HILIC columns packed with ethylene-bridged hybrid or silica particles using accelerated conditions, employing a 100% aqueous pH 11.3 ammonium bicarbonate mobile phase at 70 °C. Under these conditions, the primary mode of column failure was a loss of efficiency due to the formation of voids resulting from the hydrolysis of the particles. We investigated the dependence of stability on the surface area of both unbonded and sulfobetaine-bonded ethylene-bridged hybrid stationary phases. The results show a clear trend of stability increasing as the surface area decreases. Several commercially available HILIC columns that are recommended for use with high-pH mobile phases were also evaluated. The results show times to 50% loss of the initial efficiency ranging from 0.3 to 9.9 h. Columns containing unbonded, sulfobetaine-bonded or diol-bonded ethylene-bridged hybrid stationary phases had longer lifetimes than amino-bonded silica or sulfobetaine-bonded, hybrid-coated, superficially porous silica columns.

Abstract
A polyethyleneimine (PEI)-functionalized polymer substrate polar stationary phase was prepared for hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) by grafting PEI onto poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) microspheres. The phase shows a U-shape retention profile and it exhibits typical hydrophilic characteristic when the organic solvent fraction in the mobile phase is > 60%. Hydrogen bonding, anion exchange, and hydrophobic interaction are involved in the retention mechanism. Good separation and unique selectivity for acidic, basic and neutral polar analytes were achieved. It showed extremely low column bleed (comparable to that of blank) under gradient elution mode (even to 50% fraction of water) and wide pH tollerance range (at least 1-13).

Abstract
The hydrophobicity of polymer-based anion exchangers is a persistent problem in suppressed anionic chromatography (SAC) due to its adverse effect on chromatographic performance. Herein we describe polyelectrolyte-grafted anion exchangers with modified hydrophilic intermediate layers. The anion exchangers were functionalized by successively grafting a linear cationic condensation polymer (LCCP), a preprepared polyelectrolyte. The carboxylic/hydroxylic intermediate layers formed during thiol-radical-mediated polymerization exert distinct effects on the phase capacity and hydrophobicity. The separation of typical inorganic anions, polarizable anions, and organic acids shows that the anion exchangers display good performance in SAC mode.

Abstract
Stability as a function of mobile phase pH is an important consideration when selecting a chromatographic column. While the pH stability of reversed-phase columns is widely studied, there are relatively few reports of the stability of hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) columns. We evaluated the stability of silica and ethylene-bridged hybrid HILIC columns when used with mobile phases containing basic buffers. The predominant mode of column degradation observed in our studies was a decrease in efficiency due to voiding, resulting from the hydrolysis of the silica particles. Associated with this were increases in tailing factors. Retention factor changes were also noted but were smaller than the efficiency losses. The dependence of the rate of efficiency decrease on the key variables of temperature, mobile phase pH and water content were studied for an unbonded silica column. The effect of the acetonitrile concentration on the pH of the mixed aqueous/acetonitrile mobile phases was also investigated. Using conditions found to cause a 50% decrease in efficiency after approximately five hours of exposure to the basic solution, we evaluated eight different commercially available HILIC columns containing silica or ethylene-bridged hybrid particles. The results show large differences between the stability of the silica and ethylene-bridged hybrid particle stationary phases, with the latter exhibiting greater stability.

It is prepared via surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization of hyperbranched polyglycerol onto hydrolzed poly(glycidyl methacrylate-divinylbenzene) microspheres. The capacity of the functional groups can be maniputed by repeating hyperbranch layers. The phase showed typical HILIC character with good separation performance towards tested polar analytes. It also exhibited wider pH tolerance range (e.g. at least 2 to 12) and as well negligible bleed level under gradient elution mode (even to 50% fraction of water).

Abstract
Novel poly(ethylvinylbenzene-divinylbenzene) (EVB-DVB) agglomerated with ultrasmall carbonaceous spheres (UCSs) anion-exchange packings for ion chromatography (IC) were constructed. Hydrophilic UCSs with mean sizes of 62-98 nm were synthesized in quantity by the polydiallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride aided hydrothermal carbonization of fructose. The green strategy based on the thiol-ene click reaction with cysteamine in aqueous system was first designed for the hyperbranched polyquaternary amine (HPA) grafting of UCSs with negligible damage on their monodispersity. The HPA modified UCSs were evenly distributed on sulfonated EVB-DVB substrate to form one uniform layer of functional nanospheres without observable coagulum. Seven typical anions (F-, Cl-, NO2-, Br-, NO3-, SO42- and PO43-) were baseline separated on constructed packing in 5 min with high efficiencies in the range of 44,800-71,100 plates m - 1. The rapid separation of polarizable anions, small organic acids and saccharides could be also accomplished under isocratic elution with competitive peak symmetry and efficiency. Good reproducibility was demonstrated by consecutive injection. Thiosulfate in water reducer was further detected on prepared packing in 4 min with detection limit of 0.04 mg L - 1 (S/N = 3) and good repeatability.

Abstract
We reporte the double-layer hydrogel-coated mesoporous silica material as a new stationary phase for liquid chromatography. The method of combining physical coating and chemical coating was to apply hydrogel coating on the surface of silica, and finally, a new type of liquid chromatography stationary phase with in situ coating of the functional hydrogel on silica was obtained. This hydrogel-functionalized liquid chromatography stationary phase also exhibits a certain temperature responsiveness. Experimental results show that this temperature response is mainly due to changes in the hydrogen bonding between the stationary phase and the analyte at different temperatures in the column oven, which leads to changes in retention behavior. The hydrogel-coated mesoporous silica microspheres showed excellent selectivity for many polar analytes. An excellent column efficiency was obtained (139 000 plates/m for terephthalic acid) after optimization of chromatographic conditions. In addition to rapid separation of some analytes, this new hydrogel stationary phase also has certain superiority in chromatographic performance compared with other new excellent liquid chromatography stationary phases functioned by three-dimensional cross-linking systems. The important thing is that this strategy is relatively easy to prepare a new stationary phase with different properties.

Abstract
A facile, controllable and environmentally friendly method for fabricating a novel polysaccharide-silica composite stationary phase (SiO2@(HA-CS)12) was developed in this report. Two natural polysaccharides (hyaluronan acid and chitosan) were controllably coated on the silica surface using a layer-by-layer assembly technique, and then the polysaccharide shell was chemically cross-linked to improve the stability. The column efficiency of the SiO2@(HA-CS)12 column reached 74 000 plates per m in HILIC mode and 20 100 plates per m in IEC mode, which indicates great potential for separating polar and charged samples.

Abstract
Nowadays, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) coated silica stationary phases (SPs) have aroused great attention, owing to their good properties of high selectivity, good stability, facile synthesis procedure and low cost. In this study, zidovudine imprinted polymers coated silica stationary phases (MIPs/SiO2 SPs) were synthesized by surface imprinting technique using zidovudine as the template molecule, methacrylic acid as the functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linking agent, azobisisobutyronitrile as the initiator, and bare silica spheres (particle size, 5 μm; pore size, 20 nm) as substrates. In the process, reagents with low concentration were used to prepare thin layer of MIPs coating on the surface of silica microbeads. The properties of the materials were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), carbon elemental analysis and N2 adsorption-desorption experiment. The obtained SPs were packed into stainless steel columns (2.1 mm × 150 mm) via a slurry method. The prepared columns were applied for separation of nucleoside analogues with similar chemical structures and strong polarity. The retention mechanism of MIPs/SiO2 SPs for nucleoside analogues was investigated carefully. And the chromatographic performances of the resulting MIPs based SPs were superior to those of the commercial SPs. Furthermore, the synthesized MIPs/SiO2 SPs possessed great potentials in separation of ginsenosides. This investigation demonstrated that MIPs based SPs were successfully synthesized and provided a new approach to polar compounds separation and analysis.

Abstract
Inspired by porous smart gel materials, we designed pH-responsive polymer-modified silica microspheres as liquid chromatography stationary phase materials by a one-step strategy. The free radicals generated by the oxidation of dopamine are used to initiate the cross-linking polymerization of functional monomers. At the same time, the good adhesion of dopamine enables the polymer to be modified on silica. The hydrophilicity of this new stationary phase can change in response to the pH of the mobile phase and the stationary phase has weaker hydrophilicity under acidic (pH = 3.78) mobile phase conditions and stronger hydrophilicity under neutral mobile phase conditions. The hydrophilicity difference of the stationary phase leads to the selectivity difference in separation. To evaluate the chromatographic performance of this new stationary phase, 10 oligosaccharides and 9 nucleosides/bases were separated on this stationary phase. This paper will provide good guidance for us to achieve more pH-responsive hydrophilic/hydrophobic stationary phases in the future.

Abstract
Packed column SFC has become very popular for preparative and analytical separations due to the low cost of CO2, its accessible critical temperature, and pressure, with the additional benefit of a low environmental burden. Currently, there is a shortage of new polar stationary phase chemistries for SFC. In this work, two new functionalized cyclofructan columns are introduced and evaluated for their performance in achiral SFC separations for the first time. Cyclofructan (CF6), a macrocyclic oligosaccharide, was covalently linked with benzoic acid (BCF6) and propyl sulfonic acid (SCF6) groups by ether bonds. Superficially porous particles (2.7 μm) bonded with modified CF6 showed markedly different selectivity than native CF6. In SFC, peak shapes of amines and basic compounds are often compromised. We show that small quantities (~5.7% v/v) of water added to the methanol modifier in CO2 improves peak symmetries of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. Efficiencies as high as 200,000 plates/m (reduced plate height ~ 1.8) were observed for benzamide and amitriptyline on the BCF6 column. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of retention times on BCF6 were about 1.4%, and on SCF6 were less than 1%. Amines on the SCF6 column showed plate counts as high as 170,000 plates/m. Tetramethylammonium acetate is examined as an alternative to water in MeOH. A run time of 36 min with methanol, trifluoroacetic acid, triethylamine mobile phase was reduced to <5 min with complete baseline resolution for a set of amines. The new stationary phases allow greener approaches towards solving separation problems.

Abstract
Recent applications of retention modelling in liquid chromatography (2015–2020) are comprehensively reviewed. The fundamentals of the field, which date back much longer, are summarized. Retention modeling is used in retention‐mechanism studies, for determining physical parameters, such as lipophilicity, and for various more‐practical purposes, including method development and optimization, method transfer, and stationary‐phase characterization and comparison. The review focusses on the effects of mobile‐phase composition on retention, but other variables and novel models to describe their effects are also considered. The five most‐common models are addressed in detail, i.e. the log‐linear (linear‐solvent‐strength) model, the quadratic model, the log–log (adsorption) model, the mixed‐mode model, and the Neue–Kuss model. Isocratic and gradient‐elution methods are considered for determining model parameters and the evaluation and validation of fitted models is discussed. Strategies in which retention models are applied for developing and optimizing one‐ and two‐dimensional liquid chromatographic separations are discussed. The review culminates in some overall conclusions and several concrete recommendations.

Abstract
A polyacrylamide (PAM)-coated silica packing as a novel stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) was produced firstly by thermal immobilization. The coated layer was formed by a simple and facile physical method that dipping silica spheres into a PAM solution and then stirring the mixture until the solution was evaporated absolutely, leaving a certain amount of PAM on the silica particles. Although there are no chemical bonds involved, the bleeding measurement and the background noise are acceptable. Polyacrylamide coated silica (PAM-Sil, mean diameter: 5 μm) demonstrated a good hydrophilic property and excellent separation efficiency, which was observed especially for several high polar analytes such as saccharides. It is much higher than bare silica or amino columns under the same conditions. Moreover the obtained stationary phase demonstrated good stability under our operation conditions. The specific preparing method offers an easy and economical way to manipulate the thickness of PAM coating and can be extended as a universal way to produce various polymer coated stationary phases with dipping-heating/stirring-evaporating procedure.

Abstract
Cell membrane chromatography is a promising technique for screening active components from complex matrices. Unfortunately, the large consumption of cells and low resolutions of analytes limit the applications of this method. Herein, we report polyether ether ketone tube as a novel cellular membrane carrier for cell membrane chromatography. Its inner surface is firstly coated by polyvinyl alcohol and then cell membranes are physically adsorbed onto the polyvinyl alcohol layer. To verify this approach, osteoclast and osteoblast micro-column were prepared and characterized by calcitonin and verapamil, respectively. Comparing with common cell membrane chromatographic column, the micro-cell membrane chromatographic columns showed about 1000-fold decrease of cell consumption and satisfactory retention behavior. The developed column was applied to screen potential active components from Cortex Phellodendri Chinensis. A total of 18 components in Cortex Phellodendri Chinensis extract were observed as having retention property of osteoclast micro-cell membrane chromatographic column, while 10 components retained on osteoblast micro-cell membrane chromatographic column. The results of in vitro assay showed that berberine, obacunoic acid and phellodendrine had an obvious inhibitory effect on osteoclast differentiation and function. Berberine and tetrahydropalmatine increased the osteoblast proliferations and mineralized nodules density. This cell membrane/polyvinyl alcohol column can be applied to various biological chromatography models.

Abstract
Surface-initiated anionic-ring-opening multibranching polymerization was employed to prepare a hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) functionalized silica stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The obtained stationary phase was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The chromatographic properties of the prepared stationary phase were systematically investigated. The abundance and multitude distribution of hydroxyl groups in HPG endowed the stationary phase with improved hydrophilicity and enhanced separation performance compared with the stationary phase functionalized with monolayer of hydroxyl groups. The stationary phase showed excellent retention of various polar compounds, such as nucleosides, necleobases, phenols and sulfanilamides, indicating great potential in the separation of complex biosamples.
