Exploiting The Versatility Of Ionic Liquids In Separation Science: Determination Of Low-Volatility Aliphatic Hydrocarbons And Fatty Acid Methyl Esters Using Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction Coupled To Gas Chromatography, Yunjing Meng, Veronica Pino, Jared L. Anderson
Exploiting The Versatility Of Ionic Liquids In Separation Science: Determination Of Low-Volatility Aliphatic Hydrocarbons And Fatty Acid Methyl Esters Using Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction Coupled To Gas Chromatography, Yunjing Meng, Veronica Pino, Jared L. Anderson
Jared L. Anderson
The determination of high-molecular weight aliphatic hydrocarbons and fatty acid methyl esters possessing high boiling points and low vapor pressures was performed using a headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography (HS-SPME-GC) method comprised entirely of ionic liquids (ILs). The method utilizes three independently structurally engineered ILs in which the imparted physical and chemical properties make them compatible with the requirements of each component of the method. Component one is composed of a thermally stable IL solvent used to increase the equilibrium concentration of analytes in the HS, component two is a SPME sorbent coating based on a polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) …
Ionic Liquids Containing The Tris(Pentafluoroethyl)Trifluorophosphate Anion: A New Class Of Highly Selective And Ultra Hydrophobic Solvents For The Extraction Of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Using Single Drop Microextraction, Cong Yao, William R. Pitner, Jared L. Anderson

A new class of ionic liquids (ILs) containing the tris(pentafluoroethyl)trifluorophosphate (FAP) anion are paired with imidazolium, phosphonium, and pyrrolidinium cations and used as extraction solvents in direct immersion single drop microextraction (SDME) studies coupled to high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The selectivity and sensitivity of the extraction method can be tuned and manipulated by varying the cationic component of the IL, thereby providing larger enrichment factors for a variety of analytes, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Compared to other hydrophobic ILs containing the hexafluorophosphate (PF6−) and bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide (NTf2−) anions, FAP-based ILs are significantly more hydrophobic and hydrolytically stable permitting them …
