It was determined that selectivity differences are dependent on the valency of the counter-ion but not the type of counter-ion. Monovalent surfactants, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and lithium dodecyl sulfate, have nearly identical selectivity behavior. The divalent surfactants, magnesium didodecyl sulfate and copper didodecyl sulfate also show very similar behavior. However, when the divalent counter-ion species is compared to SDS under similar conditions, significant differences are observed. Most notably, the utilization of divalent counter-ion species of dodecyl sulfate surfactants causes the micelles to become more hydrophobic and a weaker hydrogen bond donating pseudo-stationary phases. It is believed that the divalent counter-ions reduce the electrostatic repulsion between the surfactant head groups and therefore, increase the chain packing of the monomers in the micelle aggregates. This reduces the degree of hydration of the micellar palisade layer leading to a decreased ability of the micelle to participate in polar/polarizable and hydrogen bonding interactions with solute molecules.}, number={1-2}, journal={JOURNAL OF CHROMATOGRAPHY A}, author={Trone, MD and Mack, JP and Goodell, HP and Khaledi, MG}, year={2000}, month={Aug}, pages={229–240} } @article{trone_khaledi_2000, title={Characterization of chemical selectivity in micellar electrokinetic chromatography: V.

A series of three sarcosinate surfactants (sodium N-lauroyl sarcosinate, sodium n−myristoyl sarcosinate, and sodium N-parmitoyl sarcosinate) with C11, C13, and C15 hydrocarbon tails were compared. In addition, sodium dodecyl sulfate and sodium tetradecyl sulfate were investigated to determine the chain length effect for sodium sulfate surfactants. Linear solvation energy relationships as well as free energy of transfer studies were used to predict the selectivity differences. The results suggest that although the surfactant chain length can have some effect, the magnitude of this influence seems to be dependent on the head group. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Micro Sep 12: 433–441, 2000}, number={8}, journal={JOURNAL OF MICROCOLUMN SEPARATIONS}, author={Trone, MD and Khaledi, MG}, year={2000}, pages={433–441} } @article{trone_leonard_khaledi_2000, title={Congeneric behavior in estimations of octanol-water partition coefficients by micellar electrokinetic chromatography}, volume={72}, ISSN={["0003-2700"]}, DOI={10.1021/ac990852l}, abstractNote={Linear Solvation Energy Relationships (LSERs) are used to explain the congeneric behavior observed when using Micellar Electrokinetic Chromatography (MEKC) to estimate the octanol-water partition coefficient scale of solute hydrophobicity.

This report evaluates the validity of using the two LSER models that have been used to fit retention in MEKC in the literature. The results and the fit of the revised model and parameters developed by Abraham and coworkers are compared to the original model developed by Kamlet, Taft, and coworkers. LSERs can generally only be used as a comparative tool to describe the selectivity differences between surfactant systems used in MEKC. With this in mind, it was determined that the results of both models essentially provide the same information about these differences. However, the revised model and parameters have been found to yield a statistically better fit of the MEKC retention data as well as providing more chemically sound LSER coefficients.}, number={1-2}, journal={JOURNAL OF CHROMATOGRAPHY A}, author={Trone, MD and Khaledi, MG}, year={2000}, month={Jul}, pages={245–257} } @article{trone_khaledi_1999, title={Characterization of chemical selectivity in micellar electrokinetic chromatography. 4.

Using linear solvation energy relationships (LSER) and functional group selectivity studies, the effect of six anionic headgroups on chemical selectivity is characterized. The sodium dodecyl surfactants of the sulfate [SO4-], sulfonate [SO3-], carboxylate [CO2-], carbonyl valine [OC(O)NHCH(CH(CH3)2)CO2-], and sulfoacetate [OC(O)CH2SO3-] anions are investigated. Solute size and the hydrogen-bond-donating ability of the micellar phase play the most significant roles in solute retention in all of the surfactants studied. While solute-micelle hydrogen bonding plays a dominant role in the observed selectivity, the dipolarity and polarizability of the micellar phase also have a small influence. The results also suggest that the hydrogen-bond-accepting ability for surfactants is inversely proportional to the proton acidity (pKa) of its headgroup. The observed hydrogen-bond-donating ability and dipolarity of surfactant systems are believed to be a result of the water that resides near the micelle surface.}, number={7}, journal={ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY}, author={Trone, MD and Khaledi, MG}, year={1999}, month={Apr}, pages={1270–1277} }
