11. Chromatography Column Efficiency – The Bad Original theory developed from number of simple separation steps (e.g. from fractional distillation columns) N = number of theoretical plates (or now plate number) = best absolute measure N = 16(t r /w) 2 or = 5.55(t r /w 1/2 ) 2 –w = peak width at baseline –w 1/2 = peak width at half height

12. Chromatography Shape of Chromatographic Peak Gaussian Distribution Normal Distribution Area = 1 Widths –σ (std deviation) –w = 4σ –w 1/2 = 2.35σ –w’ = Area/y max = 2.51σ (commonly given by integrators) Gaussian Shape (Supposedly) 2σ2σ Inflection lines w Height Half Height w 1/2

13. Chromatography Column Efficiency Good efficiency means: –Large N value –Late eluting peaks still have narrow peak widths Relative measure of efficiency = H = Plate height = L/N where L = column length H = length of column needed to get a plate number of 1 Smaller H means greater efficiency Note: H is independent of L, N depends on L large N Value low N value

14. Chromatography Measurement of Efficiency Measuring N and H is valid under isocratic conditions Later eluting peaks normally used to avoid effects from extra-column broadening Example: N = 16(14.6/0.9) 2 = 4200 (vs. ~3000 for pk 3) H = L/N = 250 mm/4200 = 0.06 mm W ~ 0.9 min

15. Chromatography Causes of Band Broadening There are three major causes of band broadening (according to theory) These depend on the linear velocity (u = L/t m ) Given by van Deemter Equation: –where H = Plate Height, and A, B, and C are “ constants ”

16. Chromatography Band Broadening u H Most efficient velocity A term B term C term

17. Chromatography Band Broadening “ Constant ” Terms –A term: This is due to “ eddy diffusion ” or multiple paths –Independent of u –Smaller A term for: a) small particles, or b) no particles (best) X X X dispersion

18. Chromatography Band Broadening B Term – Molecular Diffusion –Molecular diffusion is caused by random motions of molecules –Larger for smaller molecules –Much larger for gases –Dispersion increases with time spent in mobile phase –Slower flow means more time in mobile phase X X X Band broadening

19. Chromatography Band Broadening C term – Mass transfer to and within the stationary phase –Analyte molecules in stationary phase are not moving and get left behind –The greater u, the more dispersion occurs –Less dispersion for smaller particles and thinner films of stationary phase X X dispersion Column particle

20. Chromatography Some Questions 1.Column A is 100 mm long with H = 0.024 mm. Column B is 250 mm long with H = 0.090 mm. Which column will give more efficient separations (under conditions for determining H)? 2.Which van Deemter term is negligible in open tubular GC? 3.How can columns in HPLC be designed to decrease H? In open tubular GC? 4.Why is it usually more difficult to improve the relative retention (  ) when there are a larger number of analytes/contaminants? 5.Both using a longer column or using a column of smaller H will improve resolutions? Which method will generally lead to a better chromatogram? Why?
