Abstract:
A mixture of eight steroids was separated by HPLC on a silica hydride-based stationary phase modified with a moiety of cholesteryl 10-undecanoate. Within the steroid mixture progesterone showed the longest retention time suggesting the strongest interaction with the stationary phase material. To obtain more detailed information upon the effective separation process, interaction studies were performed by high resolution/magic angle spinning (HR/MAS) NMR spectroscopy recorded in the suspended state. (1)H saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR experiments with T(1rho) suppression showed significant hydrophobic binding affinities of progesterone toward the cholesterol column material. These NMR results can be correlated directly to the chromatographic data obtained by HPLC.
