Effect of Ionic Liquids as the Mobile Phase Additives on the HPLC Resolution of Four Active Compounds from Sophora flavescens Ait
Abstract
The retention behaviour of four active compounds from Sophora Flavescens Ait using three ionic liquids as mobile phase modifiers was examined. The effect of the pH and the amount of ionic liquid modifier on the retention of these compounds was determined in methanol/water (v/v) as the mobile phase containing different ionic liquids ranging in concentration from 0.1 mmol/L to 3.0 mmol/L. The ionic liquids showed promise as additives in high-performance liquid chromatography.
