Thin-layer chromatography Ion-pairing reagents pH of stationary phase Benzoic acid
SummaryThe effects of some factors important in ion-pair, highperformance liquid chromatography were studied in ion-pair, thin-layer chromatography. Tetramethyl and cetyltrimethylammonium salts were used as ion-pairing reagents. As stationary phases, silica gel and chemically bonded reversed-layers (C18) were used. Layers were impregnated with ion-pairing reagent prior to chromatography. In some cases the stationary phase was treated with buffer at different concentrations. The mobile phase contained methanol and water, in one set of experiments buffer, salt for adjustment of ionic strength and ion-pairing reagent were added. The migration behaviour of different benzoic acids was studied. Several problems of ion-pair thin-layer chromatography are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
