U.S.-Brazil Cooperative Science Program: Synthesis, Characterization, and Analytical Applications of Micelle- Mimetic Ionenes

这项由美国-巴西合作科学计划颁发的奖项支持维克森林大学的Willie L.Hinze博士和巴西圣保罗大学的Frank H.Quina博士进行的化学研究。预计的研究将提供对胶束状聚合物系统的更好的了解，并可能导致开发用于光学活性化合物的色谱分离的新的流动/固定相。这项研究将集中在手性和非手性离子烯表面活性剂的制备和表征，以及对它们作为色谱流动相或固定相的能力的评价。将对这些系统催化重要的色谱检测反应的能力进行评估，这些反应将允许在TLC/HPLC中进行增强检测。该项目将把欣策博士作为分析化学家的才能与巴西同行的物理化学专业知识结合起来。*//

This award from the U.S.-Brazil Cooperative Science Program supports research in chemistry to be conducted by Dr. Willie L. Hinze of Wake Forest University and Dr. Frank H. Quina of the Universidade de Sao Paulo in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The projected research will provide a better understanding of micelle-like polymeric systems and could lead to the development of new mobile/stationary phases for chromatographic separation of optically active compounds. The research will focus on the preparation and characterization of chiral and non-chiral ionene surfactants and the evaluation of their ability to function as chromatographic mobile or stationary phases. The ability of these systems to catalyze important chromatographic detection reactions, which would permit enhanced detection in TLC/HPLC, will be evaluated. The project will couple the talents of Dr. Hinze as an analytical chemist with the physical chemistry expertise of his Brazilian counterpart. ***//
