Additives, high-performance hquid chromatography

Thin-Layer Chromatography. Chiral stationary phases have been used less extensively in tic as in high performance Hquid chromatography (hplc). This may, in large part, be due to lack of avakabiHty. The cost of many chiral selectors, as well as the accessibiHty and success of chiral additives, may have inhibited widespread commerciali2ation. Usually, nondestmctive visuali2ation of the sample spots in tic is accompHshed using iodine vapor, uv or fluorescence. However, the presence of the chiral selector in the stationary phase can mask the analyte and interfere with detection (43). 

High Performance Liquid Chromatography. Although chiral mobile phase additives have been used in high performance Hquid chromatography (hplc), the large amounts of solvent, thus chiral mobile phase additive, required to pre-equiUbrate the stationary phase renders this approach much less attractive than for dc and is not discussed here. 

There are a variety of analytical methods commonly used for the characterization of neat soap and bar soaps. Many of these methods have been pubUshed as official methods by the American Oil Chemists Society (29). Additionally, many analysts choose United States Pharmacopoeia (USP), British Pharmacopoeia (BP), or Pood Chemical Codex (FCC) methods. These methods tend to be colorimetric, potentiometric, or titrametric procedures. However, a variety of instmmental techniques are also frequendy utilized, eg, gas chromatography, high performance Hquid chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. 

In addition, the appHcation of the mass spectrometer (ms) as a detector for gas—Hquid chromatography has made the positive identification of peaks possible. High performance Hquid chromatography (hplc), which involves various detectors, can be used to measure hydrophilic and hydrophobic organic compounds in water. 

Immobilization. The abiUty of cyclodextrins to form inclusion complexes selectively with a wide variety of guest molecules or ions is well known (1,2) (see INCLUSION COMPOUNDS). Cyclodextrins immobilized on appropriate supports are used in high performance Hquid chromatography (hplc) to separate optical isomers. Immobilization of cyclodextrin on a soHd support offers several advantages over use as a mobile-phase modifier. For example, as a mobile-phase additive, P-cyclodextrin has a relatively low solubiUty. The cost of y- or a-cyclodextrin is high. Furthermore, when employed in thin-layer chromatography (tic) and hplc, cyclodextrin mobile phases usually produce relatively poor efficiencies.

Table 6.6 reports on the molar conversions of the esterifications of geraniol with hexanoic acid and of cinnamyl alcohol with butyric acid obtained using these two biocatalysts under different conditions. In order to exclude possible adsorption of reagents and/or products on the biocatalysts, a procedure of extensive rinsing of the biocatalysts was applied and the hquid phases were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. No appreciable presence of products nor reagents was observed. The effective achievement of the equilibrium was confirmed in all cases by the addition of further fresh biocatalyst after the reactions stopped.
