August 2003 Page 1 of 14 319306-01 Introduction Solvent choices for electrospray ionization can be separated from those of column separation for systems utilizing a make-up solvent technique to provide required dilution. The following application note takes a look at a few common solvent systems and their eects on a set of pharmaceutical target compounds and related analytes. What was Investigated Mass-based fraction collection solvent selection for electrospray positive ionization mode was tested for a limited set of solvents against a small set of analytes to show examples of solvent choice on results. Often in prep analysis, unlike analytical work, compromises are made in ionization mode and HPLC conditions to suit a broad number of compounds. In this Application Note, we will look at some of these compromises in terms of ionization. Main Components: Gilson-Thermo Finnigan NEBULA™ Prep System, consisting of a Gilson 215 Liquid Handler/Autosampler/Fraction Collector, 322 H2 Prep Pump, 307 Make-up Pump, 155 UV/VIS Dual- wavelength Detector with 0.2-mm ow cell, and Thermo Finnigan MSQ Mass Spectrometer. Experimental—HPLC/LCMS Six solutions of analytes were prepared (10 mg/mL of each compound) in DMSO, which oers at least moderate separation for most analytes. All injection volumes were 500 µL on a 2-mL loop. Column: Metachem 21*50 ODS2. Flow rate: 20 mL/min.; gradient: 5% MEOH/95%Water + 0.1% HCOOH to 95% MEOH/5% Water +0.1%HCOOH in 10 minutes. Retention time estimates from screening analysis on a ZORBAX 4.6*50-mm column at 1.5 mL/min. using the same gradient. Make-up Flow Rate: 0.4 mL/min. Splitter: Standard LC-Packings/standard ACM 10–50; UV = 254nm. MS Conditions: Electrospray positive ionization mode. Capillary voltage: 3kV; cone voltage varied for experimental purposes. Capillary temperature (525°C) was determined to give optimal signal for all solvents. Scan range: 100–900 amu; scan rate: 0.8 sec. Cone stepping runs: 20V, 40V, 65V, and 95V at 1 sec. Make-up Solvent Considerations for Prep and Semi-Prep LC/MS Mass-Based Fraction Collection Materials & Methods Application Note 206 Tim Hegeman (Gilson, Inc.) Experiments: Collections performed for all solvents were tested for all mixes. Each system was run with four cone voltages to look at solvent inuence. Note: System is a solvent system identied by its organic constituent: MEOH, ACN, IPA, or MEOH/1,4 Dioxane. One representative mix from each system was chosen for the cone voltage experiment as indicated.

These tend to be molecules with weaker basicity (i.e., exposed oxygens). Adducts seen: MH+=(MW+1); MHACN+=(MW+42)+; MHIPA+=(MW+61)+; and MHDMSO+=(MW+79)+ Figure 10: Results (Make-up 1) 50/50 Methanol/Water + 0.1% HCOOH August 2003 Page 8 of 14 319306-01 Figures 11 & 12: Results (Make-up 1) 50/50 Methanol/Water + 0.1% HCOOH Compounds having acidic functionalities (e.g., phenols and carboxylic acids) tend to form Na+adducts, and the relative intensities tend to increase with cone voltage. DMSO adduct is generally fairly weak and can be driven o with increased cone voltage. Results (Make-up 1) 50/50 Methanol/Water + 0.1% HCOOH This system does not tend to add to the adduct problem via an intrinsic solvent adduct. This can result in a more simplied and consistent spectra and collection. Na + (M+23) is a problem for all analytes that have the ability to form these persistent adducts. Other adducts, such as the DMSO, adduct (M+1+78) can form if the species is available from the injection solvent (i.e., can be removed by increased cone voltage). The chief argument against this system may be solubility of certain classes of compounds. PrednisoneMH+(359) and D MSO (MH +78)+ adduct (438) at 20V and 65V shows that higher voltage drives off this adduct (MW 358, MH+ 359) 20V 65V 20V 65V Panthothenic Acid MW 219, MH+ = 220 ; Na+ adduct (242) shows that unlike DMSO adduct (298)- relative abundance of N a+ adduct increases with cone voltage.
