• Powerful technique for the isolation and purification of variety
of chemicals, pharmaceutical compounds, natural products and
biological molecules.
• To increase throughput and separation power, the first
preparative HPLC system was developed in the 1970’s.
• Types of HPLC: Based on the scale of operation.
PREPARATIVE CHROMATOGRAPHY:

Analytical HPLC. Preparative HPLC.
1. Sample goes from detector into waste. 1. Sample goes from detector into
fraction collector.
2. Use quantification and/or identification
of compounds.
2. Use for isolation and/purification of
compounds.

biocompatible material.

2. PREPARATIVE PUMP:

• Requires high eluent flow rate 10 and 100 ml/min and
large internal diameter of columns.
• A larger piston head is required to work at flows of 10-
100ml/min.

• Should inject sample within
the range of 0.1 to 100 ml.
• Rheodyne injector is used.

 Column is the heart
of the liquid chromatography.
 Sample distribution plate is
used to distribute the sample
across the column.

 It depends on the particle size, scale of the separation and on
the nature of the material to be separated.
 There are two type of Column Packing’s.
 Particle size more than 20mm- Dry Packing.
 Particle size less than 20mm- Slurry Packing.
 Packing of Preparative Columns:
Packing of
preparative
columns

Once column diameter approaches 5 cm, additional difficulties
arises.
Formation of channels/bridges in the column bed.
Chances of friction between particles and wall of the column.

 COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE PREPARATIVE
COLUMNS:

 In preparative HPLC eluent should be
diluted with more mobile phase and
then passed through the detector.
 Detectors are same as that of HPLC.
5. PREPARATIVE DETECTOR:

 In preparative HPLC sample goes from detector to fraction
collector.
 The fraction collector diverts the flow either to waste or, to a
fraction container via the fraction collection needle which
can achieve by using diverter valve.
6. FRACTION COLLECTOR:
Figure 14: Fraction Collector System.

The preparative scale fraction collector is designed for flow rates up
to 100 mL/min.
Figure 15: Eluent Flow Rate.
 Designing of Fraction Collector:

• Based on a signal plot.
• Highest flexibility.
Manual
fraction collection
• Based upon detector response.
Peak-based
fraction collection
• Compound with the desired
mass is selectively collected
Mass-based
fraction collection
Time-based
fraction collection
 Fraction Collection Methods:
• Based on time of interval

Optimization of Separation
(Mobile Phase, Stationary Phase, Temperature, Retention, Selectivity.)
Selection of Appropriate Mode of Separation
Definition of Separation Problem
METHOD DEVLOPMENT AND OPTIMIZATION OF
PREPARATIVE HIGH PRESSURE LIQUID
CHROMATOGRAPHIC METHOD:

The first step in preparative method development is to identify the
problem and challenges associated.
 Sample information.
 Analyte(s) of interest. (type, number, concentration, required
level of purity)
 Other separation strategies suitable for your sample.
 Detection.
 Amount of material to be isolated.
 Required degree of accuracy, precision etc.
 Method verification.
 DEFINITION OF SEPATION PROBLEM:

The following factors should be considered when selecting
the appropriate HPLC mode for your separation.
 Solubility.
 Molecular weight.
 Sample matrix.
 Detectability.
 Other separation alternatives.
SELECTION OF APPROPRIATE MODE OF
SEPARATION:

1. Mobile Phase:
Viscosity of mobile phase.
sample solubility in mobile phase.
pH
volatility of solvents/buffers.
solvent cost.
2. Stationary Phase:
The chemistry of the stationary phase controls,
Selectivity.
Production rate.
3. Temperature:
Increase in temperature,
 Improves resolution and solubility.
Decreases the viscosity of the mobile phase.
Increase in production rate.
 Optimisation of Separation:

4.Retention:
• Minimum retention factor(k) necessary for isolating the product
and providing the desired purity, cycle time is decreased and the
production rate increased.
• Concentration of the product in collected fractions decreases
when retention increases, Column efficiency increases, but the
cycle time and solvent consumption are increased as well.
• k= 1.2-2.0 for isocratic separation, k = 3-4 for gradient
separations.
5. Selectivity:
• Increasing the selectivity value up to 2 or 3 significantly
improves the throughput of separation.
• Selectivity can be optimised by changing the solvent
composition as well as pH and nature of buffer added to the
mobile phase.

Two ways of performing column overloading:
1. volume overloading. 2. concentration overloading.
Table 4: Difference between Volume and Column Overloading.
 OPTIMIZATION OF THE THROUGHPUT:
Volume Overloading. Concentration Overloading.
1. Determined by injection volume. 1. Determined by solubility of the
compound in mobile phase.
2. Appropriate when sample has poor
solubility.
2. Appropriate when sample has good
solubility
3. Throughput determined by column
diameter.
3. Throughput determined by selectivity.
4. Analytical area of adsorption
isotherm.
4. Preparative area of adsorption
isotherm.
5. Small particle size improves 5. Particle size has very little influence

1. Purification in medicinal or high-throughput chemistry.
2. Purification in natural product chemistry.
3. Purification of by-products for impurity analysis.
4. Recovery collection.
5. Automated fraction re-analysis.

columns.
 Achieves the same separation as

 Flexible solvent delivery options
allowing binary or quaternary
based pumps providing low-
pressure multi-solvent blending or
high pressure gradient mixing of
flow rates up to 150 ml/min.
 Easy to use.
 highly sensitive UV/Visible or
Photodiode Array detectors are
use.

CONCLUSION:
 Preparative chromatography is powerful technique
for the isolation and purification of variety of
chemicals, including pharmaceutical compounds,
natural products and biological molecules.
 If we optimise all the parameter like column
loadability, selectivity, flow rate, particle size, we
can scale up the technique from analytical to
preparative scale.
