| We have recently employed polymeric surfactants (molecular micelles) in combination with capillary electrophoresis for enhanced separations of bioanalytical and environmental samples. We have also employed ionic liquids in combination with our polymeric surfactants to achieve some interesting separations. Our goal is to understand the factors which contribute to effective separations by use of polymeric surfactants in combination with ionic liquids. One of the methods that we have explored for probing molecular recognition is fluorescence anisotropy (FA)(JACS 2001, 123, 3173-3174). We have demonstrated that FA directly correlates with our chromatographic measurements and that it is possible to extract the difference in free energy of interaction between two analytes by use of FA measurements. This talk will highlight some of our recent studies in this area. Other analytical applications of ionic liquids in our laboratory will also be discussed. |
