Significance and Challenges of Catecholamine
Separation

• Catecholamines biogenic amines containing a
  catechol function (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl group) and
  an amino function on a side chain.

• Play an important role in nervous system
• Cause and treatment of Parkinsons disease

• Due to the extremely hydrophilic structures of
  catecholamines, typical separation using RPLC is
  quite difficult
• Long ODS column, longer than 15cm
• Minute amount of organic modifier, less than 10
• Strong ion-pairing reagent, e.g. alkyl sulfonate

Sulfonation Degree and Hydrophobicity
Synthesis conditions sulfonated with 0.11M
ClSO3H dichloromethane solution at -61?C for
0.5hour value estimated from the slope of k
vs. 1/C in cation separation.
-SO3-HC-C8 exhibits both cation exchange sites
(SO3-) and hydrophobic interaction sites

Dominant Mechanism
Acids (protonated) reversed phase
Retention range (k) and selectivity (a) can be
tuned by changing TFA concentration.

Conclusions

• Hydrophobic hyper-crosslinked strong cation
  exchanger -SO3-HC-C8 is very useful in the
  separation of highly hydrophilic cations, such as
  catecholamines, morphine, methamphetamine, etc.
• Flexible optimization
• Tuning TFA concentration pH acetonitrile
  fraction temperature
• TFA or acetonitrile gradient
• Excellent efficiency (gt 100,000/m)
• Silica-based hyper-crosslinked polymer networks
  serves as a novel and stable platform for the
  synthesis of a family of reversed and ion
  exchange phases.
• Hydrophobic hyper-crosslinked strong cation
  exchanger -SO3-HC-C8 can be synthesized by
  controlled sulfonation of reversed
  hyper-crosslinked phase HC-C8.
