Anion selectivity of a sapphyrin-modified silica gel HPLC support.

A sapphyrin-modified silica gel support for use in high-performance liquid chromatography was prepared by attaching a sapphyrin monocarboxylic acid to aminopropyl silica gel through an amide bond. The anion retention characteristics of this modified silica gel were tested by exploring the extent to which a specific anion in the mobile phase would act to affect the rate at which AMP was eluted from an HPLC column containing this functionalized stationary phase. In general, it was found that phosphate and arsenate anions were more effective as eluents than carboxylic acids and halides, a result that was interpreted in terms of these former species binding better to sapphyrin (and hence being more effective in terms of displacing AMP) than other anions tested. Support for the contention that phosphate anions will bind to sapphyrin subunits covalently tethered to the silica gel came from solid state 31P NMR spectroscopic analyses. These revealed that the 31P nucleus undergoes a 5 ppm upfield shift, relative to control, when allowed to interact with the sapphyrin-containing support.
