Iso propanol ipa hplc grade

HPLC measurements to monitor process
evolution in terms of enantiomeric excess were conducted on a Thermo
Scientific UltiMate 3000 HPLC series equipped with a quaternary pump
and a UV–Vis detector. They were carried out in normal phase
setting. Measurements of 10 μL injections were carried out at
213 nm on a Daicel CHIRALCEL OJ-H HPLC Analytical Chiral Column, 5
μm, ID 4.6 mm × L 250 mm. For the mobile phase, a 60:40
(v/v) mixture of n-hexane (HPLC grade, Fisher Scientific)
and iso-propanol IPA (HPLC grade, Fisher Scientific) was used with
a flow rate of 1 mL/min. Retention times were found to be 6.5 and
9.0 min for S-NMPA and R-NMPA, respectively.
The enantiomeric excess ee was calculated by analyzing the peak area
for each enantiomer.

The polyimide polymer Matrimid^® 5218 (Vantico Inc.), solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP, >99.5%, Merck) and non-solvent polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400, M_w = 400 g mol⁻¹, Merck) were utilized to fabricate the membrane substrate. 1, 6-Hexanediamine (HDA, >98%) was purchased from Alfa-Aesar to crosslink the substrate. M-phenylenediamine (MPD, >99%), trimesoylchloride (TMC, >98%) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, >99%) were ordered from Sigma-Aldrich and employed for the interfacial polymerization reaction. LiCl (>99%, Sigma-Aldrich), CA (>99%, Sigma-Aldrich), DEA (>99%, Sigma-Aldrich), PEG 1000 (M_w = 1000 g mol⁻¹, Merck) and methyl palmitate (>97.0%, Tokyo Chemical Industry) were utilized as the draw solutes. Ethanol (HPLC grade), isopropanol (IPA, HPLC grade), and n-hexane (HPLC grade) were ordered from Fisher Scientific and employed as the solvents to evaluate the membrane performance. Tetracycline (≥98.0 %, Sigma-Aldrich) and industrial sample, triglycerides from soybean oil (liquid, GIIAVA Singapore), were used as the model feed solutes. The commercial OSN membrane DuraMem 300 obtained from Evonik was utilized for transport mechanism studies. The deionized (DI) water was produced by a Milli-Q ultrapure water system (Millipore, USA). All chemicals were used as received.
