  • Title: Adsorption and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of p-nitrobenzyl esters of monohydroxy fatty acids.
    Author: Bandi ZL, Reynolds ES.
    Journal: J Chromatogr; 1985 Jul 05; 329(1):57-63. PubMed ID: 3926799.
    Abstract:
    To enhance the UV detectability of hydroxy fatty acids, p-nitrobenzyl (PNB) esters of twenty-two different monohydroxy fatty acids of various chain-lengths (C16-C22) and differing positional isomers were formed using O-(p-nitrobenzyl)-N,N-(diisopropyl)-isourea (PNBDI) as alkylating agent. Reversed-phase and adsorption high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of the twenty-two monohydroxy fatty acid PNB esters were studied. The PNB group did not dominate the chromatographic properties of monohydroxy fatty acids and it did not interfere with the HPLC separation of positional isomers. PNBDI was, however, found to be less than ideal for formation of PNB derivatives of monohydroxy fatty acids because UV absorbing contaminants of PNBDI interfered with the HPLC analyses.
