dc.description.abstract |
The ability of a chiral calix(4)arene to participate in host-guest interactions could
ultimately lead to new types of stationary phases for performing enantiomeric
separations in capillary gas chromatography. For this work, chirality was introduced into
p-tertbutylcalix(4)arene via addition of L-phenylalanine to the hydroxyl groups located at
the bottom of the cup-like structure. The amino-acid derived p-tertbutylcalix(4)arene
was absorbed into the polymeric coating of a non-polar siloxane AT-1 stationary phase
using evaporation under reduced pressure. Solute retention times were plotted versus the
number of alkyl chain carbon atoms in a homologous series of alkyl benzenes.
Deviations in the linearity of this plot suggested some type of contribution to solute
retention was resulting, possibly from inclusion of the component(s) into the calixarene
cavity. Indications of possible host-guest interactions between the amino acid-derived
stationary phase with various analytes were apparent from the band broadening due to the
slow kinetics, which are typically observed with host-guest interaction. The ability of
this newly derived stationary phase to selectively interact with analytes based on their
relative polarity was also determined. |
