Abstract
The current practice of pretreating the solid support with free alkali to increase separation efficiency for basic compounds proved to be unsuitable for capillary columns. Instead of this, homogenous organic materials of high base strength are required. We found polyethylene imine (PEI) and polypropylene imine (PPI) to be very efficient as liquid phases of capillary columns for the separation of bases. The preparation of polymers is mentioned. Silanization or acetylation of the free hydroxyl groups of carbowax-type substrate makes them more suitable for use as liquid phases in capillary columns.Keywords
