Functional Monomers and Polymers. LXXIX. Application of Nucleic Acid Base Containing Polystyrene Resin to High Performance Chromatography

Abstract
Polystyrene resins having pendant nucleic acid bases were prepared. They were found suitable for high performance liquid chromatography to separate N-substituted nucleic acid bases effectively. From the measurements of retention times and peak resolution values, it became evident that the specific base-base interaction between the solutes and the resin plays an important role in the separation purpose.
