Περίληψη: To address the tedious preparation steps of existing thiol-functionalized chromatographic stationary phases and the scarcity of research on thiol-hybridized core-shell materials, this paper proposes a "one-pot" synthetic route for thiol-hybridized core-shell silica microspheres (SiO2@SiO2-thiol). The results demonstrated that the "one-pot" method could efficiently prepare SiO2@SiO2-thiol with excellent monodispersity, uniform thiol-hybridized shell layers and tunable pore structures. Subsequently, two types of stationary phases were constructed by utilizing a dual-pathway modification strategy, with these hybrid microspheres as the matrix. The separation performance and mechanism of these stationary phases for both achiral and chiral compounds (such as amino acid racemates) were systematically investigated. The stationary phase modified with hydrophobic 1-tetradecene (C14-thiol-UV) exhibited excellent separation performance, achieving a column efficiency of 55,180 plates m⁻¹ when using butylbenzene as a probe. Furthermore, the combination of C14-thiol-UV column with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) enabled effective analysis of perfluorinated compounds (PFASs), further verifying the applicability and practicality of the constructed stationary phase in the separation of complex samples. Meanwhile, compared with two kinds of chiral stationary phases (CSP) in our previous work, the as-prepared thiol‑t‑BuCQN column modified with tert‑butylcarbamoylquinine (t-BuCQN) in this study exhibited significantly enhanced chiral recognition capability, and baseline separation (Rs≥1.5) of 10 racemates of amino acid derivatives was achieved.
