Derivatization is a process used to chemically modify compounds to make them suitable for gas chromatography analysis by increasing their volatility and thermal stability. It is commonly used to analyze compounds that are not directly amenable to GC due to issues like inadequate volatility, stability, or detectability. Common derivatization techniques include silylation, acylation, alkylation, and esterification. These techniques modify functional groups like hydroxyl, amino, and carboxyl groups to enhance chromatographic behavior and detectability.

A co solvent system is one in which a water miscible or partially miscible organic solvent is mixed with water to form a modified aqueous solution. And the phenomenon called Cosolvency
cosolvents have some degree of hydrogen bond donating and or hydrogen bond accepting ability as well as small hydrocarbon regions.
The resulting solution will have physical properties that are intermediate to that of the pure organic solvent and water through the reduction of water–water interaction.
Solventless reaction in green chemistryAfrin Nirfa
Solventless reactions or solid state reactions are one of the principles involved in green chemistry. these reactions are more useful because the toxicity of solvents are reduced, easy to handle, cheaper and makes environment friendly.

3. What is derivatization?
• What is GC Derivatization?
• Derivatization is the process of chemically modifying
a compound to produce a new compound which has
properties that are suitable for analysis using a GC.
4. Why Derivatize:
To permit analysis of compounds not directly amenable to
analysis due to, for example, inadequate volatility or stability.
Improve chromatographic behavior or detectability.
Many compounds do not produce a usable chromatograph
(i.e.multiple peaks, or one big blob), or the sample of interest
goes undetected. As a result it may be necessary to derivatize
the compound before GC analysis is done.
Derivatization is a useful tool allowing the use of GC and
GC/MS to be done on samples that would otherwise not be
possible in various areas of chemistry such as medical,
forensic, and environmental.
5. What Does Derivatization
Accomplish?
Increases volatility (i.e. sugars):
Eliminates the presence of polar OH, NH, & SH groups
Derivatization targets O,S, N and P functional groups
(with
hydrogens available.
Increases detectability, I.e. steroids/ cholesterol
Increases stability.
Enhances sensitivity for ECD (Electron Capture
Detection). The introduction of ECD detectable groups, such
as halogenated acyl groups, allows detection of previously
undetectable compounds.
6. Types of Derivatization
pre-column derivatization
post-column derivatization
Precolumn derivatisation:
Components are converted to volatile & thermo stable
derivative
Conditions - Pre column derivatisation
Component ↓ volatile
Compounds are thermo labile
↓ tailing & improve separation
7. Post column derivatisation
Improve response shown by detector
Components ionization / affinity towards electrons is
increased
Pretreatment of solid support
To overcome tailing
Generally doing separation of non polar components
like esters, ethers…
9. Acylation
• Acylation reduces the polarity of amino, hydroxyl, and thiol
groups and adds halogenated functionalities for ECD. In
comparison to silylating reagents, the acylating reagents
target highly polar, multifunctional compounds, such as
carbohydrates and amino acids.
• Acyl derivatives are formed with acyl anhydrides, acyl
halides, and activated acyl amide reagents.
• The anhydrides and acyl halides form acid by-products
which must be removed before GC analysis.
10. CONT…..
• Activated amide reagents, such as MBTFA, have the
advantage of not yielding acid by-products.
• Fluorinated acyl groups, going from trifluoracetyl to
heptafluorobutyryl , can be used to increase retention
times.
11. Acylating Reagents
• 1. Fluorinated Anhydrides:-
• TFAA- Trifluoroacetoic Anhydride
• PFPA- Pentafluoropropionic Anhydride
· Most commonly used reagents, as derivatives are suitable
for both FID and ECD.
• · Reacts with alcohols, amines, and phenols to produce
stable and highly volatile derivatives
• · The acid by-product should be removed, via a stream of
nitrogen, before injection onto column. Bases, such as
triethylamine, can be added as an acid receptor and
promote reactivity
• · Ability to adjust retention times for ECD
12. Conti…
• 2. Fluoracylimidazoles
• TFAI- Trifluoroacetylimidazole
• PFPI- Pentafluoropropanylimidazole
• HFBI- Heptafluorobutyrylimidazole
• · Usually a better choice for making ECD derivatives
• · React under mild conditions and their by-products,
the imidazole, is not acidic so it will not harm column.
• · Reagents are extremely sentive to water- will react
violently to it.
• · Works best with amines and hydroxy compounds
13. Cont..
• 3. MBTFA {N-methyl-bis(trifluoroacetamide)}
• · Reacts with primary and secondary amines, slowly with
hydroxyl groups and thiols.
• · Conditions are mild and the by-products are relatively
inert and are non acidic
• 4. PFBCI- Pentafluorobenzoyl Chloride
• · Phenols most receptive site
• · Used for making derivatives of alcohols and secondary
• amines. Secondary amines will react with this
compound
14. Ex:
1. Esterification with n-propanol, acidic catalyst and
benzene for remove water azeotropically, the
ester were acylated with acetic anhydride and
finally derivatives extracted and diluted for GC.
15. Esterification with n-propanol, acid catalyst and benzene removes
water azeotropically.
Later, Ester was acetylated with acetic anhydride to yield the
acetylated derivative.
16. Advantages and
Disadvantages of
Acylation
• Advantages: Addition of halogenated carbons increased
detectability by ECD.
• Derivatives are hydrolytically stable.
• Increased sensitivity by adding molecular weight
• Acylation can be used as a first step to activate carboxylic
acids prior to esterfication (alkylation).
17. Disadvantages
•Acylation derivatives can be difficult to prepare.
• Reaction products (acid by-products) often need to be
removed before analysis.
• Acylation reagents are moisture sensitive.
• Reagents are hazardous and odorous.
18. perflouro-Acylation
•This group increases the mol.wt of the sample relative to the
analogous hydrocarbon.
•Best method to increase the retention time.
•Eg.
• N-Triflouro acetic anhydride
• Direct acylation with Triflouro acetic anhydride in
triflouro acetic acid followed by methylation with
diazomethane in methanol.
19.
20. Alkylation
• Alkylation reduces molecular polarity by replacing active
hydrogens with an alkyl group. These reagents are used to
modify compounds with acidic hydrogens, such as
carboxylic acids and phenols. These reagents make esters,
ethers, alkyl amines and alkyl amides.
• Reagents containing fluorinated benzoyl groups can be used
for ECD.
• The principal reaction employed for preparation of these
derivatives is nucleophilic displacement.
• Alkylation is used to modify compounds with acidic
hydrogens, such as carboxylic acids and phenols.
21. • Alkylation can be used alone to form esters, ethers and
amides- or they can be used in conjunction with acylation
or silylation.
•It is generally used to convert organic acids into esters. As
the acidity of the active hydrogen decreases, the strength of
the alkylating reagent
must be increased. The harsher the reaction conditions or
reagents, the more limited the selectivity and applicability of
this method.
22. Alkylating Reagents
1. DMF (dialkylacetals)
· These reagents work quickly, derivatizing upon dissolution.
Suitable for flash alkylation, where derivatization takes place
in the injection port.
· The different alkyl homolgues allow formation of a variety of
esters. polarity and volatility of the samples can be adjusted,
thereby changing retention time.
· They will react with water to give the corresponding alcohol.
Traces of water will not affect the reaction as long as you
have an excess of acid.
23. 2. TBH (tetrabutylammonium hydroxide)
· Froms butyl ester, which will allow longer retention times
· Used most commonly for low molecular weight acids
3. BF3 in methanol or butanol
· Convenient and inexpensive method for forming esters
4. PFBBr (Pentafluorobenzyl bromide)
Esterifies phenols, thiols, and carboxylic acids
24. ·Eg: The imide nucleus is present in no. of pharmaceuticals
agents like anticonvulsants and barbiturates.
The most common derivative is methyl imide, which can be
formed on column by using trimethyl ammonium
hydroxide.[TMAH]
25. Cont…
•Alkyl esters have excellent stability and can be
isolated and stored for long periods of time.
• A two step approach is commonly used in
derivatization of aminoacids, where multiple functional
groups on these compounds may
necessitate protection during derivatization.
26. Advantages
Wide range of alkylation reagents available
Reaction conditions can vary from strongly acidic and
strongly basic.
Some reactions can be done in aqueous solutions.
Alkylation derivatives are generally stable.
Disadvantages
Limited to amines and acidic hydroxyls.
Reaction conditions are frequently severe.
Reagents are often toxic.
27. esterification
Esterification:
Esterification is used to prepare derivatives of carboxyl group.
The conversion of the carboxyl group to ester increases volatality by
decreasing hydrogen bonding.
Ex:- Analgesics, prostaglandins, aminoacids, & anti-inflammatory
agents.
Derivatization by esterification can be carried out by using Fischer
esterification procedure in which strongly acidic conditions are present.
R` - COOH + R -OH H+ R`- COOR + H2O
BF3
28. Amino acids : E.x. Alanine, α-amino butyric acid, valine, leucine,
isoleucine.
1. α-chloromethyl esters:
prepared by treating the amino acid with a mixture of concentrated
nitric acid and Hydrochloric acid.
Aminoacid Chloro methyl ester
R – CH-NH2 – COOH Hcl/ HNO3 R – CH – COOCH3
Cl
2. Methyl ester salts:
Esterification of 1-leucine, 1-methionine with methanol & thionyl
chloride.
29. Silylation
• Silylation produces silyl derivatives which are more volatile,
less stable, and more thermally stable.
• Replaces active hydrogens with a TMS (trimethylsilyl group).
• Silylation occurs through nucleophilic attack (SN2). The
better the leaving group, the better the siliylation.
• Silylation reagents will react with water and alcohols first.
Care must be taken to ensure that both sample and solvents
are dry.
• Solvents should be as pure as possible. This will eliminate
excessive peaks. Try using as little solvent as possible as this
will prevent a large solvent peak.
30. Pyridine is the most commonly used solvent. Although
pyridine may produce peak tailing, it is an acid scavanger and
will drive the reaction forward.
In many cases, the need for a solvent is eliminated with
silylating reagents. (If a sample readily dissolves in the
reagent, it usually a sign that the derivatization is complete).
.
31. Ease of reactivity of functional groups towards silylation.
Many reagents require heating (not in excess of 60 degrees C
for about 10-15 minutes, to prevent breakdown).
Hindered products may require long term heating
32. The ease of reactivity of the functional group toward silylation
follows the order:
Alcohol > Phenol > Carboxyl > Amine > Amide
General
Reaction Mechanism
R-OH + (CH3)3 – Si - Cl R – O – Si - (CH3)3 + HCl
Trimethylchlorosilane Trimethylsilylether
33. Silylating Reagents
1. HMDS (Hexamethyldisilane).
· Weak donor, as it has symmetry
· If used will attack only easily silylated hydroxyl groups
· Sometimes found in combination with TMCS
2. TMCS (Trimethylchlorosilane).
· Weak donor, again not commonly used
· Often found as a catalyst to increase TMS donor potential
· Bad by-product, HCL
3. TMSI (Trimethylsilylimidazole).
· Not a weak donor, but it is selective (will not target N
compounds)
· Reacts readily with hydroxyls but not with amines
· Since it is selective, it will target the hydroxyls in wet sugars.
It will derivatize the acid sites of amino acids, and will leave
the amino group free for fluorinated derivatization (ECD)
34. 4. BSA (Bistrimethylsilylacetamide).
· First widely used silylating reagent
· Strong silylating reagent- acetamide is a good leaving group.
Reacts under mild conditions and produces relatively stable
by-products
· Drawbacks: by-product, TMS-acetamide, will sometimes
produce peaks that overlap those of other volatile derivatives.
BSA mixtures also oxidize to form silicon dioxide, which can
foul FID detectors
TMS-DEA (Trimethylsilyldiethylamine).
· Reagent is used for derivatizing amino acids and carboxylic
acids
· Targets hindered compounds
35. 5. BSTFA (Bistrimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide)
· Developed by Gerhke in 1968
· Reacts similiarly to BSA but the leaving group is
trifluoroacetamide, so it acts faster and more completely than
BSA
· BSTFA is highly volatile, and produces by-products that are
more volatile than BSA by-products, thus there is little
interference
with early eluting peaks
· It can act as its own solvent
· Combustion product silicon trifluoride, does not foul
detectors
36. Advantages and Disadvantages of Silylation
Advantages
• Ability to silylate a wide variety of compounds
• Large number of silylating reagents available.
• Easily prepared.
Disadvantages
• Silylation Reagents are moisture sensitive
• Must use aprotic (no protons available) organic
solvents
37. Condensation:
If ketone or aldehyde is present in a sample, it is frequently
derivatized to prevent hydrogen bonding due to enolization & helps in
resolution from an interfering substance.
The most commonly used reagent is methoxylamine to protect
enolizable ketogroups in steroids by formation of methoximes.
Cyclization:
Cyclization is performed on compounds containing two functional
groups in close proximity so that 5 or 6 membered Heterocyclic rings
can be formed.
38. • Heterocycles formed are ketals, boronates, triazines &
phosphites.
E.g: Cyclization of α – OH ketones (present in corticosteroids)
with formaldehyde forms bismethylene dioxy derivatives
which are thermally stable & permit resolution of
corticosterone from a mixture of steroids.
39. applications
Qualitative analysis:
Retention time data should be useful for
identification of mixtures.
Comparing the retention time of the sample as
well as the standard.
Checking the purity of a compound: compar the
standard and sample.
Additional peaks are obtained…..impurities are
present….compound is not pure.
40. Quantitative analysis:
Direct comparison method:
-comparing the area of the peak, peak height, width
of peak.
Calibration curves:
-standards of varying concentration are used
determine peak areas .
oInternal standard method:
-A known concentration of the internal standard is
added separately to the standard solution
-The peak area ratio of sample and internal
standard….unknown concentration is easily determined .
