- 2. CHROMATOGRAPHY Laboratory technique for the Separation of mixtures Chroma -"color" and graphein - "to write”. Colour bands - separation of individual compounds Measured or analysed. 2
- 3. PURPOSE OF CHROMATOGRAPHY Analytical Determine Chemical composition of a sample Preparative Used to purify sufficient quantities of a substance 3
- 5. Chromatograph - equipment that enables a sophisticated separation EX. Gas chromatography or Liquid chromatography Eluent - Fluid entering column/ solvent that carries the analyte. Eluate - Mobile phase leaving the column. Stationary phase - Immobilized phase Immobilized on the support particles or on the inner wall of the column tubing. Examples : Silica layer - Thin Layer Chromatography 5 CHROMATOGRAPHY TERMS
- 6. Mobile phase Moves in a definite direction. Liquid (LC), Gas (GC). The mobile phase moves through the chromatography column (the stationary phase) where the sample interacts with the stationary phase and is separated. Retention time : Time takes for a particular analyte to pass through the system (from the column inlet to the detector) under set conditions. Sample (Anylate) :Substance analyzed in chromatography. Solvent : Any substance capable of solubilizing another substance. 6
- 7. Chromatogram Visual output of the chromatograph. Separation - Different peaks or patterns on the chromatogram correspond to different components of the separated mixture. 7
- 8. Chromatogram - Detector signal vs. retention time or volume 8 time or volume Detector Signal 1 2
- 9. X- axis - Retention time Y-axis - Signal Signal is proportional to the concentration of the specific analyte separated. 9

- 12. PRICNIPLES OF CHROMATOGRAPGHY Physical method of separation that distributes components to separate between two phases moves in a definite direction. Substances are separated based on their differential distribution between two phases Substances will move with the mobile phase at different rate depending upon their Partition or Distribution co- efficients. 12
- 13. PRINCIPLES The samples are subjected to flow by mobile liquid phase onto or through the stable stationary phase. Separation of fractions of mixture based on their relative affinity towards the two phases during their travel. The fraction with greater affinity to stationary phase travels slower and shorter while that with less affinity travels faster and longer. The separation is based on Differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. 13

- 19. Stationary bed is within a tube. Solvent is driven through the column by applying Positive pressure. Separations - 20 minutes Modern flash chromatography : Pre-packed plastic cartridges, Solvent is pumped through the cartridge. Quicker separations Less solvent usage. 19
- 20. Column : o Diameter - 5 mm to 50 mm o Height - 5 cm to 1 m with a tap o Filter (a glass frit or glass wool plug) The individual components are retained by the stationary phase differently and separate from each other while they are running at different speeds through the column with the eluent. During the entire chromatography process the eluent is collected in a series of fractions. The composition of the eluent flow can be monitored and each fraction is analyzed for dissolved compounds, e.g., UV absorption, or fluorescence. 20

- 22. SOLVENTS Hydroxyl groups - Alcohol Carboxyl group - Acetone Non polar Compounds – Hexane Heptane Toulene 22
- 23. Flow rate - Separation. Pump or compressed gas (e.g. Air, Nitrogen, Argon) A faster flow rate of the eluent: Minimizes the time required to run a column Minimizes diffusion Better separation. 23
- 24. Retention Time: The time from the start of signal detection by the detector to the peak height of the elution concentration profile of each different sample. Curve Width: The width of the concentration profile curve of the different samples in the chromatogram in units of time. RESOLUTION (RS) : Rs = 2(tRB – tRA)/(wB + wA) Where: tRB = Retention time of solute B tRA = Retention time of solute A wB = Gaussian curve width of solute B wA = Gaussian curve width of solute A Plate Number (N): N = (tR)2/(w/4)2 Plate Height (H): H = L/N Where L is the length of the column. 24

Paper – Paper Chromatography Layer of solid particles spread on a support such as a glass plate - Thin layer Chromatography. Different compounds in the sample mixture travel different distances according to how strongly they interact with the stationary phase as compared to the mobile phase. Retention factor (Rf) 28

- 32. This paper is made of cellulose, a polar substance, and the compounds within the mixture travel farther if they are non- polar. More polar substances bond with the cellulose paper more quickly, and therefore do not travel as far. 32 PRINCIPLE

- 34. 34
- 35. Retention factor : Rƒ = Distance travelled by a Solute Distance travelled by a Solvent Rƒ = zero, - Solute remains in the stationary phase and thus it is immobile. Rƒ = 1 - Solute has no affinity for the stationary phase and travels with the solvent front. 35
