Abstract: Abstract: The potential of methacrylate-based mixed-mode monolithic stationary phases bearing sulfonic acid groups for the separation of positively charged analytes (alkylanilines, amino acids, and peptides) by capillary electrochromatography (CEC) is investigated. The retention mechanism of protonated alkylanilines as positively charged model solutes on these negatively charged mixed-mode stationary phases is investigated by studying the influence of mobile phase and stationary phase parameters on the corrected retention factor which was calculated by taking the electrophoretic mobility of the solutes into consideration. It is shown that both solvophobic and ion-exchange interactions contribute to the retention of these analytes. The dependence of the corrected retention factor on (1) the concentration of the counter ion ammonium and (2) the number of methylene groups in the alkyl chain of the model analytes investigated shows clearly that a one-site model (solvophobic and ion-exchange interactions take place simultaneously at a single type of site) has to be taken to describe the retention behaviour observed. Comparison of the CEC separation of these charged analytes with electrophoretic mobilities determined by open-tubular capillary electrophoresis shows that mainly chromatographic interactions (solvophobic and ion-exchange interactions) are responsible for the selectivity observed in CEC, while the electrophoretic migration of these analytes plays only a minor role.
