HPLC Analysis of Ethephon in Hydrogen-Bonding Mode

May 12, 2015

Ethephon is an important compound for the agricultural industry. It can be corrosive, but metabolizes to ethylene quickly in plants. Ethephon was retained on SHARC 1 HILIC/anion-exclusion column. Retention was controlled by adjusting methanol in mobile phase to suppress hydrogen bonding.

Condition
Column Sharc 1, 3.2×100 mm, 5 µm, 100A
Mobile Phase Gradient MeCN/MeOH – 90/10% to 50/50, 6 min
Buffer Ammonia – 30 mM
Flow Rate 1.0 ml/min
Detection ELSD

Application Column

SHARC 1

The SHARC™ family of innovative columns represents the first commercially available columns primarily utilizing separation based on hydrogen bonding. SHARC stands for Specific Hydrogen-bond Adsorption Resolution Column. Hydrogen bonding involves an interaction or attraction between a bound hydrogen atom and molecules containing electronegative atoms, such as oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorine.
