{"doi":"10.1002/jssc.201401351","title":"Hydrophilic interaction chromatography: A promising alternative to reversed‐phase liquid chromatography systems for the purification of small protonated bases","abstract":"<jats:p>The overloaded band profiles of the protonated species of propranolol and amitriptyline were recorded under acidic conditions on four classes of stationary phases including a conventional silica/organic hybrid material in reversed‐phase liquid chromatography mode (BEH‐C<jats:sub>18</jats:sub>), an electrostatic repulsion reversed‐phase liquid chromatography C<jats:sub>18</jats:sub> column (BEH‐C<jats:sub>18</jats:sub>+), a poly(styrene‐divinylbenzene) monolithic column, and a hydrophilic interaction chromatography stationary phase (underivatized BEH). The same amounts of protonated bases per unit volume of stationary phase were injected in each column (16, 47, and 141 μg/cm<jats:sup>3</jats:sup>). The performance of the propranolol/amitriptyline purification was assessed on the basis of the asymmetry of the recorded band profiles and on the selectivity factor achieved. The results show that the separation performed under reversed‐phase liquid chromatography like conditions (with BEH‐C<jats:sub>18</jats:sub>, BEH‐C<jats:sub>18</jats:sub>+, and polymer monolith materials) provide the largest selectivity factors due to the difference in the hydrophobic character of the two compounds. However, they also provide the most distorted overloaded band profiles due to a too small loading capacity. Remarkably, symmetric band profiles were observed with the hydrophilic interaction chromatography column. The larger loading capacity of the hydrophilic interaction chromatography column is due to the accumulation of the protonated bases into the diffuse water layer formed at the surface of the polar adsorbent. This work encourages purifying ionizable compounds on hydrophilic interaction chromatography columns rather than on reversed‐phase liquid chromatography columns.</jats:p>","journal":"Journal of Separation Science","year":2015,"id":23242,"datarank":0.6603929104994731,"base_score":2.1972245773362196,"endowment":2.1972245773362196,"self_citation_contribution":0.32958368660043297,"citation_network_contribution":0.33080922389904016,"self_endowment_contribution":0.32958368660043297,"citer_contribution":0.33080922389904016,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":8,"citer_count":8,"citers_with_citation_signal":8,"citers_with_endowment":8,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":null,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":false,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":null,"fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":143374,"name":"Georges Guiochon","orcid":null,"position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":143373,"name":"Fabrice Gritti","orcid":null,"position":0,"is_corresponding":false}],"reference_count":0,"raw_metadata":{"has_enrichment":true,"base_score":2.1972245773362196,"endowment":2.1972245773362196,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"25755153","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W1943118026","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":0.6786,"citation_percentile":0.67117307,"influential_citations":1,"citation_trend":[{"year":2015,"count":1},{"year":2016,"count":1},{"year":2017,"count":1},{"year":2018,"count":1},{"year":2020,"count":1},{"year":2021,"count":2},{"year":2024,"count":1}],"oa_status":"closed","license":"http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://api.wiley.com/onlinelibrary/tdm/v1/articles/10.1002%2Fjssc.201401351","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://analyticalsciencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/jssc.201401351","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/jssc.201401351","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25755153","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Analytical Chemistry and Chromatography","Chromatography in Natural Products","Microfluidic and Capillary Electrophoresis Applications","Chemistry","Medicine"],"mesh_terms":[],"keywords":["Hydrophilic interaction chromatography","Chemistry","Chromatography","Reversed-phase chromatography","Column chromatography","Monolith","Countercurrent chromatography","Chromatography column","High-performance liquid chromatography","Capacity factor","Aqueous normal-phase chromatography","Phase (matter)","Selectivity","Protonation","Van Deemter equation","Thermoresponsive polymers in chromatography","Supercritical fluid chromatography","Organic chemistry","Polymer Monolith","Electrostatic Repulsion Reversed-phase Liquid Chromatography","Protonated Bases","Reversed-phase Liquid Chromatography C18 Adsorbent"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Clean water and sanitation"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-06-07T18:48:03.389626Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
