pK(a) determination of oxysophocarpine by reversed - phase high performance liquid chromatography

BACKGROUND: In this study, a RP - HPLC method was applied for determination of pK(a) value by using the dependence of the capacity factor (k) on the pH of the mobile phase for oxysophocarpine (OSP). FINDINGS: The effect of the mobile phase composition on the ionization constant was studied by measur...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: In this study, a RP - HPLC method was applied for determination of pK(a) value by using the dependence of the capacity factor (k) on the pH of the mobile phase for oxysophocarpine (OSP). FINDINGS: The effect of the mobile phase composition on the ionization constant was studied by measuring the pK(a) value at different MeOH concentrations, ranging from 10 to 20% (v/v). Based on all pH - k curves plotted and pH values at inflection point calculated, experimental pK(a) value obtained for oxysophocarpine was 6.5. CONCLUSION: This method was successfully applied to realize low sample consumption, rapid sample throughput, high sensitivity and precision.
