Two new lines of columns with functionalised silica and alumina packings have uses including purifying amine-substituted compounds for reverse phase separations

As a direct response to customer requests, Isoc has introduced two new lines of RediSep columns with functionalised silica and alumina packings The functionalised silicas are amino-, cyano-, and fluoro-derivatised

These silicas are useful for purifying amine-substituted compounds for reverse phase separations, especially using dipole-dipole interactions for selectivity and for separating fluorinated compounds based on their degree of fluorination.

There are three different alumina columns available, for basic, acidic, and neutral compounds.

Using these columns eliminates the need to add a counter ion to separate an ionic molecule using a silica substrate.

So, where triethylamine or acetic acid are used as counter ions with silica columns, they are not needed with alumina and do not have to be removed after the fractions have been collected.

The chance of undesirable reations is also reduced.
