- Abstract
Background: Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography (HILIC) is an outstanding strategy for the challenging analysis of hydrophilic and polar components. Nevertheless, analysis under HILIC mode typically consumes 70%-95 % acetonitrile with the disadvantage of high analytical costs, being environmentally unfriendly and causing biohazards, which is not in line with the concept of green chromatography. Research has shown that Per Aqueous Liquid Chromatography (PALC) simultaneously emphasizes efficient analytical performance for hydrophilic analytes and green analytical concepts. The development of new PALC stationary phases with superior performance is necessary., Results: In this paper, silanized silica was sequentially subjected to esterification reaction, polymerization reaction and covalent bonding through five steps to obtain SiO
2 -RHP-AuNPs material, which was prepared as a novel stationary phase for PALC. Comprehensive characterization of the materials by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Transmission scanning electron microscope, Elemental analysis and Thermogravimetric analysis showed the successful bonding of the functionalized groups on the original silica. The polymeric stationary phase based on Radix hedysari polysaccharide and Au nanoparticles had higher density of hydroxyl and ester functionalized groups. The Au nanoparticles upgraded their mesoporous structure and thermal stability, providing exceptional chromatographic performance and selectivity for chromatographic analysis. The influence of mobile phase water content, salt concentration, pH and column temperature on the retention behavior was evaluated. The novel Column was found to exhibit a dual mechanism of hydrophobic interactions/ion exchange interactions in a mobile phase with high water content., Significance and Novelty: The separation efficiency and selectivity of SiO2 -RHP-AuNPs columns for synthetic pigments and organic acids in PALC mode were superior to those of commercial HILIC and C18 columns. In addition, a method for the determination of seven active ingredients in Fructus Ligustri Lucidi by SiO2 -RHP-AuNPs column in PALC mode was developed. The method had good stability, reproducibility and accuracy, which was capable of realizing the quality evaluation of Chinese Materia Medicas., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
