Abstract

Liquid chromatography–solid phase extraction–nuclear magnetic resonance (HPLC-SPE-NMR), novel and highly promising hyphenated technique which is based on post-column analyte trapping by solid-phase extraction. The analytes are subsequently eluted from the SPE cartridges using deuterated solvents. This indirect HPLC-NMR hyphenation offers numerous advantages compared to direct HPLC-NMR methods. Multiple trapping leads to a dramatic increase of analyte amounts available for NMR, enabling acquisition of high-quality 2D NMR data within a short time. The well-defined NMR solvent conditions make spectra comparisons feasible, which means databases and spectra catalogues.
