Reversed Phase Chromatography
PD Dr. J. Graßmann; PD Dr. T. Letzel

• The name „Reversed phase“ is due to the fact, that ist was
(chronologically) the second mode of chromatography after „Normal phase”
chromatography
• In Reversed phase chromatography the mobile phase is more polar than
the stationary phase.


Typical reversed phases are hydrophobic and chemically bonded to the surface
of a silica support particle. An example is the modification with C18 groups:
HO H37C18O
OH O OC18H37 O

Typical stationary phases are modified with carbon chains of different length (C2
– C30) or with phenyl-, diol- or cyano groups:
HO CH2 N
CH3 CH C
OH
(CH 2)n (H2C) 3 CH2 (CH 2)n
H 3C H3C H3C H 3C
Si Si Si Si
O CH3 O CH3 O CH3 O CH3

n = 1: C2 Cyano
3: C4 Phenyl Diol
7: C8
17: C18
29: C30
Depending on conditions Diol- and Cyanophases may also work in normal phase mode.

Retention in Reversed Phase Chromatography
The hydrophobicity of an analyte can be expressed as Log P which is a

measure of an analytes partition between two immiscible solvents (usually
octanol and water)
The higher the Log P, the more hydrophobic is the molecule
The retention decreases in the following order:
Aliphatics > induced dipoles (e.g. CCl4) > permanent dipoles (e.g. CHCl3) > weak
Lewis bases (esters, aldehydes, ketones) > strong Lewis bases (amines) > weak
Lewis acids (alcohols, phenols) > strong Lewis acids (carboxylic acids)


Retention in Reversed Phase Chromatography
Retention order:
1. Straight chain hydrocarbon – most hydrophobic (C11)
2. Straight chain hydrocarbon – less hydrophobic (C10)
3. Branched n-hydrocarbon (C10)
4. Unsaturated C10 - (more polar due to π electron dipole in the
double bond)
5-7. Analytes with functional groups. Ionized analytes will elute
fastest of all


Influence of mobile phase strength on retention
Analytes have increasing Log P, i.e. increasing hydrophobicity

• In reversed phase chromatography the mobile phase is more polar than the
stationary phase
• Mobile phases in Reversed Phase Chromatography usually consist of water
or buffer and an organic modifier
• The retention mainly is based on the hydrophobicity (which can be expressed
as Log P) of an analyte molecule
• Retention is – amongst others - influenced by
• the solvent strength of the organic modifier
• the temperature (which may also influence selectivity)
