A cyclophane (CP44)-bonded silica gel stationary phase was prepared an
d elution behaviour of hydrophobic solutes was investigated in the rev
ersed-phase mode. Aromatic compounds were retained on the stationary p
hases more strongly than the corresponding alicyclic compounds, as was
expected by the complex-forming ability of the cyclophane. The statio
nary phases also showed isomer-selective separation for monomethyl-and
dimethylnaphthalenes. The isomers having methyl groups at the alpha-p
osition were eluted prior to those having methyl groups at the beta-po
sition, i.e., the retention order for methylnaphthalene was, alpha<bet
a and that for dimethylnaphthalene, alpha,alpha<alpha,beta<beta,beta.
Moreover, some dimethylnaphthalene isomers which cannot be separated o
n ordinary reversed-phase stationary phases were separated finely on t
his stationary phase. The separation mechanism is discussed on the bas
is of the structure of the cyclophane-involved complex. (C) 1998 Elsev
