- Abstract
Gas chromatography (GC) of cis-eicosenoic acid (20:1) positional isomers has been investigated on a capillary column of ionic liquid 1,9-di(3-vinyl-imidazolium)nonane bis(trifluoromethyl)sulfonylimidate stationary phase (SLB-IL100). A test mixture of isomeric 20:1 methyl esters was prepared from flathead flounder flesh lipids. On a 60-m column operated at 150-180 °C, six peaks appeared in the elution order of 20:ln-15 → 20:ln-13 → 20:ln-11 → 20:ln-9 → 20:ln-7 → 20:ln-5. These peaks were baseline resolved within 20 min at 180 °C. The 20:ln-13 and 20:ln-11 isomers, poorly resolved on conventional polar polysiloxane stationary phases, were completely separated from each other with separation factor α = 1.02 and peak resolution (Rs) ≥ 1.57. When equivalent chain length (ECL) values were compared between the SLB-IL100 and CP-Sil 88 (biscyanopropyl polysiloxane), those of 20:ln-15 and 20:ln-13 exceptionally tended to be lower on the SLB-IL100. The excellent separation of 20:1 isomers seems due to less retention of 20:ln-15 and 20:ln-13 on SLB-IL100 rather than simply due to its high polarity. Analysis of herring oil 20:1 revealed the occurrence of 20:ln-13 in the Pacific herring but not in the Atlantic herring. The ionic liquid stationary phase, SLB-IL100, is effective for analyzing 20:1 isomers occurring in fish and other natural oils.
