Reprospher 100 2-EP

2-Ethylpyridine-Modified HPLC Column for Basic Compound Separation

Reprospher 100 2-EP is a reversed-phase HPLC column from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH, packed with ultra-pure, fully porous spherical silica (100 Å pore size) functionalized with 2-ethylpyridine ligands. This unique phase offers both hydrophobic and π-basic interactions, making it particularly effective for the separation of basic, polar, and aromatic analytes with improved peak symmetry and reduced tailing compared to standard C18 materials. The basic character of the 2-ethylpyridine group suppresses residual silanol activity and enhances selectivity for compounds that are difficult to retain or resolve on conventional reversed-phase columns.

Reprospher 100 2-EP from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH offers reliable and distinct selectivity – ideal for laboratories working with difficult-to-separate basic and polar analytes in modern reversed-phase HPLC.

Key Features:

  • 2-Ethylpyridine bonded reversed-phase silica – unique selectivity

  • Ideal for basic and aromatic compounds prone to tailing

  • Enhanced peak shape through π–π and weak base interactions

  • Fully porous, high-purity 100 Å spherical silica

  • Manufactured and QC-tested by Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH

Typical Applications:

  • Separation of basic pharmaceuticals and drug impurities

  • Method development for challenging polar or aromatic analytes

  • Alternative selectivity for LC-MS-compatible workflows

  • Reversed-phase chromatography under neutral pH conditions
