Use of Liquid Ion Exchange Chromatography for the Separation of Organic Compounds

Abstract

SEVERAL investigators have recently effectively separated metals by means of paper or thin-layer chromatographic systems using liquid ion exchangers1–6. With these materials, this technique can be considered as a form of reverse phase chromatography whereby the liquid stationary phase is an acid or a base with very low solubility in the aqueous mobile phase. It seems that the interaction between ionized groups of the solutes and the stationary phase may play a significant part in this separation process.
