Part 2. Synthesis, characterization and X-ray structure of a new enantiomerically pure bis-equatorial dirhodium(II) compound
2001
Abstract The UV irradiation of an acetone solution of Rh2(O2CCF3)4 and the chiral phosphane (1S, 2S, 5R)-(2-hydroxy-5-isopropenyl-2-methyl-cyclohexyl)diphenylphosphane, (+)PPh2(CHR*OH) leads to the formation of two diastereoisomeric bis-equatorial compounds of formula Rh2(μ-O2CCF3)2(η1-O2CCF3)2(η2-(+)PPh2(CHR*OH))2 P(+)2 and M(+)2 in a 1.5:1 ratio, respectively. Both compounds have been separated by standard column chromatography. The characterization of the enantiomer M(+)2 has been accomplished by X-ray crystallography. The molecular structure consists of an Rh2 4+ unit bridged by two trifluoroacetate ligands. The coordination of each metal center is fulfilled by one phosphine acting …
A rapid procedure for the determination of caffeine, theophylline and theobromine in urine by micellar liquid chromatography and direct sample inject…
1995
Abstract A liquid chromatographic procedure for the determination of caffeine, theophylline and theobromine in urine samples is described. The proposed system uses a Spherisorb octadecyl-silane ODS-2 C18 analytical column and a guard column of similar characteristics. The UV detector was set at 273 nm. A study to adequately select the composition of the micellar mobile phase for the separation of these compounds in urine samples is performed. Maximum resolution was achieved with a 0.075 M sodium dodecylsulphate-1.5% propanol eluent. Limits of detection at 273 nm ranged between 0.4 μg/ml for theobromine and theophylline and 1.2 μg/ml for caffeine. The procedure allows the determination of th…
Determination of caffeine in tea samples by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry
2002
A sustainable and environmentally friendly procedure has been developed for the FTIR determination of caffeine in tea leaf samples. The method is based on the extraction with ammonia and CHCl3 and direct determination of caffeine on the chloroform extracts using peak height absorbance measurements at 1658.5 cm(-1) and external calibration. The method provides a sensitivity of 0.2142 absorbance units mg(-1) mL and a limit of detection of 1 mg L(-1), corresponding to 0.002% m/m caffeine in tea leaves. As compared with a reference procedure, based on UV absorbance measurement at 276 nm after low pressure column chromatography, the developed procedure reduces the consume of CHCl3 by a factor of…
Automated determination of reboxetine by high-performance liquid chromatography with column-switching and ultraviolet detection.
2000
A fully automated method including column-switching and isocratic high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed for quantitative analysis of the new antidepressant reboxetine, a noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor. After serum injection into the HPLC system and on-line sample clean-up on a silica C8 (10x4.0 mm I.D.) clean-up column with an eluent consisting of 2.5% acetonitrile in deionized water, the chromatographic separation was performed on an analytical column (Lichrospher CN; 250x4.6 mm I.D.) with an eluent of acetonitrile-aqueous potassium phosphate buffer (0.008 M, pH 6.4) (50:50). The UV detector was set at 273 or 226 nm. The limit of quantification was about 15 ng/ml at…
Automated determination of amisulpride by liquid chromatography with column switching and spectrophotometric detection.
2003
A fully automated chromatographic method including on-line blood serum or plasma clean-up, isocratic high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and spectrophotometric detection was developed for quantitative analysis of the new antipsychotic drug amisulpride. After injection of serum or plasma onto the HPLC system and clean-up on a pre-column (10x4.0 mm I.D.) filled with Silica CN 20 micrometer (pore size 10 nm) by an eluent consisting of 8% acetonitrile in deionized water, the chromatographic separation was performed on Lichrospher CN (5 micrometer; 250x4.6 mm I.D.) by an eluent consisting of 50% acetonitrile and 50% aqueous potassium phosphate buffer (0.008 M, pH 6.4). The UV detector …
Use of gold nanoparticle-coated sorbent materials for the selective preconcentration of sulfonylurea herbicides in water samples and determination by…
2012
Abstract Two new gold nanoparticle (NP) coated materials (silica supported on gold NP with and without ionic liquid) were synthesized for solid phase extraction of sulfonylurea herbicides (SUHs), such as bensulfuron-methyl (BSM), metsulfuron-methyl (MSM), pyrazosulfuron-methyl (PSM), thifensulfuron-methyl (TFM) and triasulfuron (TS), from water samples, followed by capillary liquid chromatography coupled to diode array detection (CLC–DAD). Several factors influencing the preconcentration efficiency of SUHs and its subsequent determination, such as pH of the sample, eluent and reusability of sorbents, have been investigated. Under the optimum conditions, the developed method allowed the dete…
Determination of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid in natural water using the capillary electrophoresis combined with enrichment step
2005
A previously elaborated capillary electrophoresis (CE) method used for the determination of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) was slightly modified in order to improve the sensitivity. However, detection limits attained (5 μg mL−1 for glyphosate and 4 μg mL−1 for AMPA) were still not satisfactory for analytical purposes, thus the addition of a preconcentration step before the CE analysis was proposed. AMBERLITE®IRA-900, a strong anion-exchange resin, was used to preconcentrate both analytes in environmental aqueous samples. The experimental conditions optimised in a previous work were readapted, by decreasing the eluent concentration due to CE limitations. Satisfactory result…
Determination of the enantiomeric composition of amphetamine, methamphetamine and 3,4-methylendioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA) in seized street drug …
2021
Amphetamine (speed), methamphetamine (crystal meth), and 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA, ecstasy) represent the most frequently abused amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS). Differences in pharmacological potency and metabolism have been shown for the enantiomers of all three stimulants. Legal consequences in cases of drug possession may also differ according to the German law depending on the enantiomeric composition of the seized drug. Therefore, enantioselective monitoring of seized specimens is crucial for legal and forensic casework. Various kinds of samples of amphetamine (n = 143), MDMA (n = 94), and methamphetamine (n = 528) that were seized in southern Germany in 2019 and…
Automated analysis of quetiapine and other antipsychotic drugs in human blood by high performance-liquid chromatography with column-switching and spe…
2004
Abstract An automated HPLC method with column switching is described for the determination of quetiapine, clozapine, perazine, olanzapine and metabolites in blood serum. After clean-up on silica C8 material (20 μm particle size) drugs were separated on ODS Hypersil C18 material (5 μm; column size 250 mm × 4.6 mm i.d.) within 25 min and quantified by ultraviolet (UV) detection at 254 nm. The limit of quantification ranged between 10 and 50 ng/ml. At therapeutic concentrations of the drugs, the inter-assay reproducibility was below 10%. Analyses of drug concentrations in serum of 75–295 patients treated with therapeutic doses of the antipsychotic drugs revealed mean ± S.D. steady state concen…
High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Study on Oxidation Products of Lignin and Humic Substances
1991
We describe a convenient method of preparing samples and characterizing the mixture of degradation products obtained from alkaline cupric oxide oxidation of water samples containing lignin and humic substances. The method was applied to one unpolluted humic water sample and a total mill effluent of a kraft pulp mill. The fractions (Mr > 1000) obtained by ultrafi1tration were oxidized and the products (mixtures of degradation products) were analyzed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (Spherisorb 5 ODS column). Acetonitrile-0.01 M phosphate buffer (pH 2) was used as the eluent in a gradient system and UV (set at 280 nm) as the detection system. Differences in the …
