Advantages to HPLC • Efficiency increases as particle diameter decreases • smaller particles give better separation and more uniform flow • Higher resolution • Fast speed of analysis • Greater reproducibility and reused packing • Easy automation operation and data analysis • Preparative procedures • Possibility of using many detectors
Basic Components of an HPLC System • Reservoirs (Solvents). • Pump System. • Mobil phase pressures up to 6000 psi .Typical flow rates are 0.1 to 10 mL/minute. • Injection System. • (0.1 to 500 µL) • 4. Chromatographic Column. • Typically 10-30 cm in length AND packing of 5-10 µm diameter. • 5. Detector. • UV, IR, refractive index, fluorescence, mass spectrometry, electrochemical,Diode array and etc.
Degassers Gases ( Oxygen,Nitrogen ) cause band broadening . ( Vacuum , Sparging w/inert gas,Sonication , thermal ) Mobile Phases 1- High purity required (to prevent extraneous peaks) 2- Low viscosity (to promote good mass transfer) 3- Immiscibility (avoids dissolving stationary phase)
Pump System • Must generate pressures up to 6,000 psi • Flow-rates range from 0.1 to 10 mL/minute • Many HPLC systems have a dual pump system to minimize pulsing • Flow control and reproducibility < 0.5% • Corrosion resistance
Reciprocating pumps • ~90% of HPLCs • Solvent in contact w/piston • Problem = pulsed flow • Advantage = Small volume, high pressure • Displacement pumps • Syringe-like chamber • Independent of viscosity • Pulse-free output • Limited solvent capacity

GENERAL FACTORS INCREASING RESOLUTION • 1. Increase column length • 2. Decrease column diameter • 3. Decrease flow-rate • 4. Use uniform stationary phase (packing material) • 5. Decrease sample size • 6. Select proper stationary phase • 7. Select proper mobile phase • 8.Use gradient elution • Change temperature (affects diffusion)
PARTITION CHROMATOGRAPHY (gas or liquid) MOBILE PHASE Sample out Sample in STATIONARY PHASE • Separation is based on the analyte’s relative solubility between two liquid phases
General Rule Polarity of analytes ≈ polarity of stationary phase ≠ polarity of mobile phase. To achieve good separation, the analytes should interact with the stationary phase, but not too strongly or the retention time will become very long. • Normal Phased Chromatography • Highly polar stationary phase • Silica or alumina oxides • Relatively non-polar solvent • hexane,i-propylether,Decane,Pentane,Cyclohexane • Less polar solutes elute first • Increasing mobile phase polarity decreases elution times • Reversed Phased Chromatography • Non-polar stationary phase • a hydrocarbon • Relatively polar mobile phase • water, methanol,acetonitrile,propanol,tetrahydrofuran • More polar solutes elute first • Increasing the mobil phase polarity increases elution time
Increased organic → decreased retention Polar Solvents: Water > Methanol > Acetonitrile > Ethanol >Oxydipropionitrile Non-polar Solvents : Decane >Hexane > Pentane >Cyclohexane
Not only is solvent Selection important… But also the proper mixture of the solvents (And flow rate….!)
