HPLC Method for Analysis of Sulfonic acids on BIST A+ Column

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of  Sulfonic acid

Methanesulfonic acid is a popular non-volatile catalyst used in organic reactions due to it being a strong acid. Other sulfonic acids, like 1-Pentanesulfonic acid, 1-Heptanesulfonic acid, 1-Decanesulfonic acid, and 1=Dodecanesulfonic acid are typically used in ion chromatography and for organic syntheses. Using SIELC’s newly introduced BIST™ method, a mixture of these Sulfonic acids can be separated on a negatively-charged, cation-exchange BIST™ A+ column, contrary to conventional chromatographic wisdom. There are two keys to this retention method: 1) a multi-charged, positive buffer, such as N,N,N’,N’-Tetramethyl-1,3-propanediamine (TMDAP), which acts as a bridge, linking the negatively-charged anion analytes to the negatively-charged column surface and 2) a mobile phase consisting mostly of organic solvent (such as MeCN) to minimize the formation of a solvation layer around the charged analytes. Other positively-charged buffers that can generate BIST™ include Calcium acetate and Magnesium acetate. Using this new and unique analysis method, these Sulfonic acids can be separated, retained, and detected through ELSD. This method is also compatible with Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) and CAD.

Application Column

BIST A+

BIST™ columns offer a unique and effective way to achieve separations that were traditionally challenging or even impossible with other HPLC columns. With the use of a special mobile phase, these ion exchange columns provide very strong retention for analytes with the same charge polarity as the stationary phase, unlocking new chromatography applications. What makes BIST™ columns stand out is their proprietary surface chemistry, which results in superior selectivity, resolution, and sensitivity. These columns offer a simple, efficient solution for a variety of analytical challenges, making them an excellent choice for researchers and analysts across many different fields.
