Quantitative retention—structure and retention—activity relationship studies of ionic and non-ionic catecholamines by micellar liquid chromatography
1997
When ionic surfactants are used as mobile phases in micellar liquid chromatography, MLC, the retention of compounds is governed by hydrophobic and electrostatic forces. In the absence of electrostatic effects, the hydrophobicity of a compound is the predominant factor affecting its retention and its interaction with micelles. Because both interactions should be considered for ionic compounds, a novel retention model is proposed which includes the hydrophobicity of a compound and the molar fraction of its charged form. High correlations between the logarithm of the capacity factors and structural parameters were obtained for ionic compounds with different degrees of ionization. The effect of…
Analysis of pharmaceutical preparations containing local anesthetics by micellar liquid chromatography and spectrophotometric detection
1999
An HPLC procedure for the determination of six local anesthetics, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, procaine, propanocaine and tetracaine, in pharmaceutical silane ODS-2 C18 analytical column and spectrophotometric detection at 230 nm were used. The chromatographic tographic behaviour of local anesthetics with different micellar eluents of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) is described. Selection of the adequate composition of the micellar mobile phase (SDS and 1-propanol concentrations) for the analysis of pharmaceuticals was studied. Adequate retention was achieved with an eluent containing 0.15 M SDS +10% 1-propanol at pH 3. Application of the proposed method to the analysis of eight phar…
Micellar versus hydro-organic reversed-phase liquid chromatography: a solvation parameter-based perspective.
2007
The performance of the solvation parameter model is examined for micellar liquid chromatography. The results are compared with those offered with hydro-organic eluents, intending to reveal the properties that influence the retention and distinguish the particular behaviour of micellar systems. The retention data of several series of non-ionisable and ionisable compounds (mainly steroids, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, sulfonamides, beta-blockers, phenethylamines, antihistamines, and diuretics) were used as probe compounds. The micellar mobile phases contained an anionic (sodium dodecyl sulphate), non-ionic (Brij-35), or cationic (cetyltrimethylamonium bromide) surfactant, with or witho…
Retention mechanisms in micellar liquid chromatography.
2008
Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is a reversed-phase liquid chromatographic (RPLC) mode with mobile phases containing a surfactant (ionic or non-ionic) above its critical micellar concentration (CMC). In these conditions, the stationary phase is modified with an approximately constant amount of surfactant monomers, and the solubilising capability of the mobile phase is altered by the presence of micelles, giving rise to diverse interactions (hydrophobic, ionic and steric) with major implications in retention and selectivity. From its beginnings in 1980, the technique has evolved up to becoming a real alternative in some instances (and a complement in others) to classical RPLC with hydro…
Chromatographic determination of caffeine in pharmaceutical formulations using micellar mobile phases
1996
An HPLC procedure is described for the determination of caffeine in pharmaceutical preparations. A Spherisorb octadecylsilane ODS-2 C18 analytical column and spectrophotometric detection at 273 nm were used. The chromatographic behaviour of caffeine with different micellar eluents containing sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) is described. The determination of caffeine in pharmaceutical preparations was performed by use of a mobile phase containing 0.05 M sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) and 1.5% propanol at pH7. At a 6.0 μg mL−1 concentration level the peak area and peak height repeatability were 2.6 and 2.4%, respectively. The application of the proposed method to the analysis of five pharmaceutic…
Determination of Anticonvulsant Drugs in Pharmaceutical Preparations by Micellar Liquid Chromatography
2004
A micellar liquid chromatographic method for quality control of pharmaceutical preparations (capsules, pills, tablets, injections, drops, and suppositories) containing the anticonvulsant drugs acetazolamide, carbamacepine, chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, ethosuximide, phenytoin, phenobarbital, and zopiclone has been developed. This methodology involves the use of micellar solutions of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as mobile phases and UV detection. The proposed approach is rapid and reproducible. Sample preparation only requires dissolution with micellar solvent and adequate dilution with the mobile phase before injection into the chromatographic system.
Ionic liquids in separation techniques.
2007
The growing interest in ionic liquids (ILs) has resulted in an exponentially increasing production of analytical applications. The potential of ILs in chemistry is related to their unique properties as non-molecular solvents: a negligible vapor pressure associated to a high thermal stability. ILs found uses in different sub-disciplines of analytical chemistry. After drawing a rapid picture of the physicochemical properties of selected ILs, this review focuses on their use in separation techniques: gas chromatography (GC), liquid chromatography (LC) and electrophoretic methods (CE). In LC and CE, ILs are not used as pure solvents, but rather diluted in aqueous solutions. In this situation IL…
Analysis of tricyclic antidepressants in pharmaceuticals by microemulsion liquid chromatography
2021
Abstract Basic compounds yield long retention times and broad and asymmetric peaks in reversed-phase liquid chromatography, due to interaction with residual silanols in the columns. The addition of the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate in the so called micellar liquid chromatography enhances the efficiency, but long retention is achieved, due to electrostatic interaction between the cationic species of basic compounds and the anionic sulphate group of the surfactant. This forces the addition of a strong organic solvent to get appropriate times. An alternative is the use of a microemulsion (ME), formed by mixing surfactant, oil and an alcohol as co-surfactant. Association of hydrophobic com…
EVALUATION OF THE ELUTION STRENGTH OF THE SURFACTANT AND ORGANIC SOLVENT IN HYBRID MICELLAR MOBILE PHASES
2001
The global ability of a mixed mobile phase (with two or more modifiers) to elute a solute is often measured without distinguishing between the elution strength of each modifier. An algorithm is proposed to evaluate the elution strength of the modifiers in hybrid micellar mobile phases containing a surfactant and an organic solvent. The algorithm is based on a mechanistic retention model that takes into account the competing equilibria of solutes among aqueous-organic phase, micelle, and stationary phase. The change in the elution strength of surfactant and organic solvent with respect to the concentration of both modifiers is also examined. The results are discussed according to the values …
Description of the retention behaviour in micellar liquid chromatography as a function of pH, surfactant and modifier concentration
1997
Abstract Micellar liquid chromatography permits the elution of solutes of diverse polarity. One of the most outstanding advantages of the technique is its capability of predicting the retention with high accuracy, as a function of different experimental variables. The separation of a group of compounds is usually optimized by varying the concentrations of surfactant and modifier in the mobile phase. The pH is, however, for many solutes, a variable that should be considered in the description of their elution behaviour. A global model that takes into account, simultaneously, the concentrations of surfactant and modifier, and the pH as chromatographic variables, is proposed for ionizable solu…
