Flash Chromatography Today Demands • Higher throughput • Higher purity requirements • More Compounds purified in less time • A wider variety of compound types to separate
Organic Chemists Face the Following Challenges • Little time to develop chromatography • Minimal interaction with instrumentation • Low solubility of compounds in water • Aqueous solvents incompatible with the next reaction • Difficult to remove water and alcohol • Very familiar with TLC • no time to optimize separation conditions
Organic Chemists Require • High quantities of material • High loads • Systems for samples soluble in NP solvents • Must deal with low solubility and high volumes • Ever increasing purity requirements • Disposable columns • Simple to use hardware
Today's Synthetic Reality • Modern synthesis is a multi step process • Purification between steps increases purity and yield • Except in biological synthesis samples are not RP compatible • HPLC is too expensive and sophisticated for synthesis purification • Old style flash is not fast enough nor giving high enough purity
Unique Problems with Flash • Sample Load • Sample Solubility • Incompatibility of sample solvent with purification method Let the Flash 150, 200 & 300 solve these problems
Volume Load Effects • Compared to analytical chemistry • Chemists require high sample loading (10mg-100’s gram) • End goal may only be 10 mg but may require 50-100 grams of starting material • Sample solubility problems require the use of solvents that are strong (cause elution of product)

A 2.886 B 3.753 C 6.123 p Large Volume Loads Reduce Resolution • Illustrates the effect of sample volume on separation of component B from A • Sample load volume, as a percentage of void volume (Load Vol./Void Vol.), was plotted vs. resolution • Resolution degrades when sample load increase to 20% of the column void volume • Keep load at <20% of column volume
Flash 150, 200 & 300 Solution to Loading Problems • Allows bigger columns so sample can be less than 20% of column void

Impact of Sample Mass on Separation • Ratio between loading mass and amount of packing material, Sample Mass/Packing (%), is shown vs. retention behavior: • When loading mass increases over 1.5% of the packing material, peak asymmetry increase significantly • Retention shifts to front as loading mass increases • As loading mass increases, peak tails overlap (without shifting)
3.596 1.425 Solvent and Co-Elution Reduces Loading Co-elution A B • A detailed fraction analysis for an affected purification • Total sample load 120 mg for components A and B • Sample dissolved in 0.8 mL dichloromethane • 95:5 Hexane-Ethyl Acetate as eluting solvent • Fractions are collected: 1.3 mL/fraction • Fraction purity was analyzed using HPLC and plotted vs. fraction number
Flash 150, 200 & 300 Advantage • Allows column size to be matched to load with out sacrificing time due to low flows
Synthesis catch-22 Organic Synthesis Trends More products/day • Organic chemists’ face rapidly changing, conflicting needs • More Synthesis • Greater output • Higher synthesis purity • Greater synthesis yields • A synthesis catch-22 dilemma Higher product purity Increased product yields
Flash 150, 200 & 300 Changes the Game • Bridges the flash to prep HPLC gap • Allows a new approach to flash based on: • Higher pressures • Gradient • More efficiency
Effect of Particle Size on Efficiency • 13-20 micron particles give optimal prep efficiency
Effect of Efficiency on Resolution • Must square the number of theoretical plates to double resolution • Loading reduces high plate column efficiency faster than lower plate columns
Capacity K’ • Measured in column volume • Think in terms of column volume’s of retention • Solvent strength effects k’ • Gradient changes k’ with time from infinity to less than 1
Factors Affecting Capacity • Surface Area • Porosity • Particle density • Size • Active coating coverage • Solvent strength
Effect of Particle Size on Pressure • Doubling particle size reduces pressure by a factor of 4 at the same linear velocity • Flash 200 & 300 allow 16-20 micron particles to be used • =Higher efficiency in the same time with more surface area
Flash 150, 200 & 300 Advantage • The 200psi pressure limit allows smaller particles and higher resolution • Capacity can be dramatically Improved • Beat the CATCH 22 by using the Flash 200 & 300 benefits
Gradient Effects • Can further dramatically increase through put by allowing full use of the column for purification. • Can actually shorten separation time. • Can concentrate samples
Flash 300 & 200 & 150 Advantage • Can use SCU470 for stand alone gradient control • High flow in isocratic mode = 600ml/min for 2 Flash 300 and 400ml/min for Flash 200 • Gradient is now reasonable for Flash Separations
SSI Offers • Single channel systems • Increase capability at moderate costs • A series of pumps for flash chromatography • System capability
Flash 150, 200 & 300 Summary • Allows bigger columns so sample can be less than 20% of column void • Allows column sized to be matched to load with out sacrificing time due to low flows • The 200psi pressure limit allows smaller particles and higher resolution • Allows gradients • Easy calibration for a wide variety of solvents • Simplicity of design for reliable performance
