Solid-phase extraction for combinatorial libraries.

Abstract

Solid-phase extraction (SPE) has during the last three years emerged as a convenient method for the purification of compound libraries prepared by solution synthesis. The widespread use of SPE in combinatorial chemistry can be explained by straightforward SPE method development facilitated by the availability of numerous commercial SPE resins. High-speed automated SPE is readily accomplished by taking advantage of commercial laboratory robot systems. The present review summarizes and discusses advancements made in the use of different SPE resins and molecule tagging techniques for optimization of ion-exchange, reversed-phase, normal-phase and fluorous-phase SPE in combinatorial chemistry.

Ion chromatographic determination of lithium at trace level concentrations. Application to a tracer experiment in a high-mountain lake.

The water residence time of a high-mountain seepage lake in the Austrian Alps was derived from the flushing rate of a tracer substance. A diluted lithium chloride solution was injected into the lake during holomictic conditions in order to favour the homogeneous distribution of the tracer. The exponential decline of the mass of lithium in the lake revealed a water residence time of 1.5 to 3 months for summer and almost no lake water exchange during winter. Lithium concentrations ranged from background values of 0.06 microg l(-1) to about 3 microg l(-1) immediately after the tracer injection. Lake water samples were analyzed with ion-exchange chromatography using a Dionex device with a CS 12A separation column. The method detection limit determined according to the definition of the US Envirinmental Protection Agency amounted to 0.009 microg l(-1).

Effect of organic solvents in the on-line thermal lens spectrometric detection of chromium(III) and chromium(VI) after ion chromatographic separation.

The effect of methanol, acetone and acetonitrile on the sensitivity, selectivity and the detection limits (LODs) of the determination of chromium species by ion chromatography was investigated. A collinear dual-beam thermal lens spectrometer was used for the direct detection of chromium complexes [pre-column derivatized Cr(III)-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, and post-column derivatized Cr(VI)-1,5-diphenylcarbazide] following the ion chromatographic separation on a Dionex HPIC-CS5A solvent compatible column. Different amounts of organic solvents were added directly to the eluent (up to 30%) and to the post-column reagent (up to 60%) to improve the thermooptical properties of the solvents. Consequently, the sensitivity of the technique was increased by a factor of 2-3 and LODs of 0.1 and 10 microg dm(-3) were achieved for Cr(VI) and Cr(III), respectively, when the eluent reaching the detector contained 30% of acetonitrile. The addition of organic solvents also resulted in significant changes in retention times, which improved the Cr(III)/Cr(VI) separation.

Continuous melting and ion chromatographic analyses of ice cores.

A new method for determining concentrations of organic and inorganic ions in ice cores by continuous melting and contemporaneous ion chromatographic analyses was developed. A subcore is melted on a melting device and the meltwater produced is collected in two parallel sample loops and then analyzed simultaneously by two ion chromatographs, one for anions and one for cations. For most of the analyzed species, lower or equal blank values were achieved with the continuous melting and analysis technique compared to the conventional analysis. Comparison of the continuous melting and ion chromatographic analysis with the conventional analysis of a real ice core segment showed good agreement in concentration profiles and total amounts of ionic species. Thus, the newly developed method is well suited for ice core analysis and has the advantages of lower ice consumption, less time-consuming sample preparation and lower risk of contamination.
