Chapter 26: Q47P (page 750)

When the following three compounds are separated by micellar electrokinetic chromatography at, three peaks are observed. When 10mMv伪-cyclodextrinis added to the run buffer, two of the three peaks split into two peaks, giving a total of five peaks. Explain this observation and predict which compound does not split.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Cyclobarbital and Thiopental will generate two peaks whereas phenobarbital would have one peak.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of electrokinetic chromatography

Micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is a chromatography technique used in analytical chemistry. It used for separating neutral molecules and ions.

02

Explanation of observation

Among the three compounds, cyclobarbital and thiopental have one chiral carbon, whereas phenobarbital is achiral. Both cyclobarbital and thiopental form non-superimposable mirror images known as enantiomers.

The enantiomers will spend different time interacting with cyclodextrin as they migrate through the capillary. This will lead to splitting of the peaks cyclobarbital and thiopental into two separate peaks resulting in a total of five peaks. The chiral centres for cyclobarbital and thiopental are marked with an asterisk.

The observed behavior of benzyl alcohol (C6H5CH2OH) in capillary electrophoresis is given here. Draw a graph showing the number of plates versus the electric field and explain what happens as the field increases.

Injection in some homebuilt capillary electrophoresis instruments is performed by raising the sample vial to create a siphon. The pressure exerted by a column of water of heightiswhereis the density of water and gis the acceleration of gravity (9.8m/s2). To what height would you need to raise the sample vial to create the necessary pressure to load the sample in 4.0 s? Is it possible to raise the inlet of this column to this height? How could you obtain the desired pressure?
