Paper electrophoresis of alkyl triphenylphosphonium ions

In order to use for separation and qualitative analysis of phosphonium ions , the paper electrophoresis was applied on the fourteen triphenylphosphoniu m ions which have the linear chain alkyl substituents from methyl to octyl groups on the phosphorus atom along with benzyl, acetylmethyl, benzoylmethy l, methoxycarbonylmethyl, ethoxycarbonylmethyl, cyanomethyl substituents, G ood correlations have been found between the average mobilities and the mol ecular weights.
