RESUMEN
Several methods of extraction were optimized to extract polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), their nitrated derivatives and heavy n-alkanes from a highly adsorptive particulate matter resulting from the combustion of diesel fuel in a diesel engine. This particular carbonaceous particulate matter, collected at high temperatures in cordierite diesel particulate filters (DPF), which are optimized for removing diesel particles from diesel engine exhaust emissions, appeared extremely refractory to extractions using the classical extracting conditions for these pollutants. In particular, the method of accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) is described in detail here. Optimization was performed through experimental design to understand the impact of each factor studied and the factors' possible interactions on the recovery yields. The conventional extraction technique, i.e., Soxhlet extraction, was also carried out, but the lack of quantitative extractions led us to use a more effective approach: hot Soxhlet. It appeared that the extraction of the heaviest PAHs and nitroPAHs by either the optimized ASE or hot Soxhlet processes was far from complete. To enhance recovery yields, we tested original solvent mixtures of aromatic and heteroaromatic solvents. Thereafter, these two extraction techniques were compared to microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). In every case, the only solvent mixture that permitted quantitative extraction of the heaviest PAHs from the diesel soot was composed of pyridine and diethylamine, which has a strong electron-donor character. Conversely, the extraction of the nitrated PAHs was significantly improved by the use of an electron-acceptor solvent or by introducing a small amount of acetic acid into the pyridine. It was demonstrated that, for many desirable features, no single extraction technique stound out as the best: ASE, MAE or SFE could all challenge hot Soxhlet for favourable extractions. Consequently, the four optimized extraction techniques were performed to extract the naturally polluted diesel soot collected inside the DPF. Comparisons with the NIST standard reference material SRM 1650b showed that the soot collected from the DPF contained 50% fewer n-alkanes, and also markedly lower levels of PAHs (44 less concentrated) than SRM 1650b, and that the ratio of nitroPAHs to PAHs was increased. These results were attributed to the high temperatures reached inside the particulate filter during sampling runs and to the contribution of the catalytic DPF to aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons abatement.
RESUMEN
Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was performed to extract complex mixtures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), nitrated derivatives (nitroPAHs) and heavy n-alkanes from spiked soot particulates that resulted from the incomplete combustion of diesel oils. This polluted material, resulting from combustion in a light diesel engine and collected at high temperature inside the particulate filter placed just after the engine, was particularly resistant to conventional extraction techniques, such as soxhlet extraction, and had an extraction behaviour that differed markedly from certified reference materials (SRM 1650). A factorial experimental design was performed, simultaneously modelling the influence of four SFE experimental factors on the recovery yields, i.e.: the temperature and the pressure of the supercritical fluid, the nature and the percentage of the organic modifier added to CO(2) (chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride), as a means to reach the optimal extraction yields for all the studied target pollutants. The results of modelling showed that the supercritical fluid pressure had to be kept at its maximum level (30 MPa) and the temperature had to be kept relatively low (75 degrees C). Under these operating conditions, adding 15% of methylene chloride to the CO(2) permitted quantitative extraction of not only light PAHs and their nitrated derivatives, but also heavy n-alkanes from the spiked soots. However, heavy polyaromatics were not quantitatively extracted from the refractory carbonaceous solid surface. As such, original organic modifiers were tested, including pyridine, which, as a strong electron donor cosolvent (15% into CO(2)), was the most successful. The addition of diethylamine to pyridine, which enhanced the electron donor character of the cosolvent, even increased the extraction yields of the heaviest PAHs, leading to a quantitative extraction of all PAHs (more than 79%) from the diesel particulate matter, with detection limits ranging from 0.5 to 7.8 ng for 100 mg of spiked material. Concerning the nitrated PAHs, a small addition of acetic acid into pyridine, as cosolvents, gave the best results, leading to fair extraction yields (approximately 60%), with detection limits ranging from 18 to 420 ng.

Enantioseparation of 6,6'-dibromo-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diol (DBBD) by cyclodextrin-modified capillary zone electrophoresis (CD-CZE) was studied using the three native alpha, beta, and gamma cyclodextrins, the three hydroxypropylated cyclodextrins (2-hydroxypropyl-alpha, beta, and gamma), heptakis-2,6-di-O-methyl-beta-CD (DM-beta-CD), and heptakis-2,3,6-tri-O-methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (TM-beta-CD). First, the acidity constants of DBBD were determined using capillary electrophoresis, before performing enantioseparation. The influence of the concentrations of the studied cyclodextrins on the enantioseparation was explored and the experimental optimal concentrations were determined and compared to the theoretical optimal concentrations. Moreover, the apparent complexation constants between each studied cyclodextrin and the two DBBD enantiomers were evaluated using a non-linear curve fitting method and three linear plotting methods (x-reciprocal, y-reciprocal and double reciprocal). For TM-beta-CD, the order of migration of the enantiomers of DBBD reversed as a function of TM-beta-CD concentration. The influence of the nature of methylated cyclodextrin derivatives (methyl-beta-CD (M-beta-CD) and DM-beta-CD) was then studied. Inversion of the order of migration of the enantiomers of DBBD was observed for DM-beta-CD, whereas the S enantiomer of DBBD always migrated first for M-beta-CD.

A simple model for the separation of atropisomers of binaphthol and its monoderivatives by means of cyclodextrin-modified capillary zone electrophoresis (CD-CZE) was used to describe the migration behavior of poly charged enantiomers in a chiral separation system. This mathematical approach allowed for the determination of the optimal cyclodextrin concentrations for the enantioseparation of binaphthols by taking into account the influence of the formed complex mobilities. Moreover, using this theoretical approach, the reversal of the enantiomers' migration order as a function of cyclodextrin concentration was predicated. The apparent complexation constants between the cyclodextrins and the binaphthol and its monoderivatives could be calculated using a non-linear curve fitting method and three linear plotting methods (x-reciprocal, y-reciprocal and double reciprocal). Good agreements between the theoretical and experimental cyclodextrin concentrations were obtained.

The potentialities of new ionic liquids (ILs) based on choline were evaluated as an electrophoretic medium in capillary electrophoresis for the analysis of alkaline and alkaline earth cations (Li(+), K(+), Na(+), Cs(+), Mg(2+), Ba(2+), Ca(2+), and Sr(2+)) with indirect UV detection. Two types of capillaries were tested: an untreated fused silica and fused silica coated with a film of polyvinylalcohol. The coated capillary proved to be the best adapted for the metal ions studied. Moreover, it appeared that the nature of the ionic liquid anion influenced the baseline stability, and the bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide (NTf(2) (-)) anion seemed to be the most efficient. These preliminary studies led us to synthesize a new ionic liquid, 2-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethyl-1-phenylethanaminium NTf(2) (phenylcholine NTf(2)). This liquid was able to act as the running electrolyte and probe, generating the background signal in indirect UV light and consequently simplifying the electrophoretic medium. Excellent baseline stability, good reproducibility, as well as good sensitivity of detection were obtained with this new ionic liquid. Thus, 510,000 plates/meter for Li(+) with 40 mM IL were successfully obtained. The optimal concentration of IL was 20 mM with a detection limit ranging from 28 microg L(-1) for Li(+) to 1,000 microg L(-1) for Cs(+). This method (phenylcholine NTf(2) with polyvinylalcohol capillary) was applied to analyze different commercial source and mineral waters. Finally, the potentiality of this ionic liquid in nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis was explored. The use of phenylcholine NTf(2) with a fused silica capillary, in pure methanol medium and in the presence of acetic acid, made it possible to obtain separation selectivity different from that obtained in aqueous medium.
RESUMEN
Chiral binaphthols belong to the group of most effective ligands for asymmetrical catalysis. In this context, various binaphthols presenting original substituents have been synthesized. Their study through capillary electrophoresis is the object of this work. The literature dedicated to the separation of atropisomers by capillary electrophoresis, corresponding only to binaphthol, reveals that its enantioseparation is always delicate because of the influence of many factors and the resolutions obtained are weak. Therefore, for a structured optimization, we first successfully evaluated the acidity constants of different binaphthols by means of capillary electrophoresis. With these known physicochemical characteristics, we could successfully carry out enantiomeric separations of the different binaphthols at pH 11.5, practically in completely ionized form, in phosphate medium, and in the presence of cyclodextrin (CD), with analysis times lower than 8min. The nature of CDs (alpha-CD, beta-CD, gamma-CD, hydroxypropyl-alpha-cyclodextrin (HP-alpha-CD), HP-beta-CD, HP-gamma-CD and trimethyl-beta-CD (TM-beta-CD)) and other factors in relation to enantiomeric resolution (applied voltage, nature and concentration of the electrolyte, and concentration of cyclodextrin) were optimized. These studies allowed us to determine the optimal conditions of separation (concentration and nature of CD) for each of the studied binaphthols. It is necessary to mention that, for the 1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diol (Binol) at pH 11.5, the S atropisomer always migrated first, regardless of the nature and concentration of the cyclodextrin used. Moreover, an inversion in elution order of the two atropisomers as a function of pH was observed with gamma-CD (pH range: 10-11.5). The R atropisomer migrated first at pH 10. At pH 10.8 the migration order of the two atropisomers of Binol was reversed as a function of gamma-CD concentration. Finally, the addition of chiral ionic liquids (R(-)-1-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylbutan-2-aminium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide and S(+)-tetrabutylammonium camphorsulfonate) was conducted. In the case of S(+)-tetrabutylammonium camphorsulfonate, a weak antagonistic effect was observed with modeling the evolution of enantiomeric resolution by means of the experimental design, while in the case of R(-)-1-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylbutan-2-aminium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide the effect was neutral.

Non-derivatized Brij 58 oligomers were analyzed by using non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) hyphenated to mass spectrometry (ion trap). The separation of this neutral polyethylene oxide surfactant was based on its complexation with ammonium cation in methanolic medium. Cationic complexes were formed within the capillary and migrated against the anodic electroosmotic flow. The latter was obtained by using a pre-treatment of the capillary with hexadimethrine bromide. By optimizing mass detection and the separation conditions separately, it was demonstrated that two different salts had to be used. Ammonium acetate was used in the sheath liquid to optimize detection sensitivity whereas ammonium iodide was used in the running electrolyte in order to obtain the more appropriate electroosmotic flow for the separation. Despite an aspiration effect due to the hyphenation with MS. that did not allow us to obtain a baseline resolution for the entire mixture, we were able to visualize and characterize more than 25 oligomers of Brij 58. As regards detection sensitivity, the limits of detection (LOD) were estimated at about 7.5 ng for the entire distribution of Brij 58 and 15 pg for C(16)E(5) or C(16)E(6) used as standards.

Pressurised microwave-assisted extraction was used to extract a complex mixture containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), nitrated PAHs and heavy n-alkanes from a particularly refractory carbonaceous material resulting from the combustion in a diesel engine. A second-order central composite design was used to determine the optimal conditions of extraction in terms of time, temperature, volume and nature of extracting solvent from spiked diesel soots. To begin, methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran and chloroform were tested for extracting the spiked diesel particulates; however, the nature of these solvents was not really an influential factor. Volume was the most influential factor and was kept at a medium level to enhance the extraction of heavy PAHs without introducing an important dilution factor. Temperature and time were not influential as main factors but interacted with the other factors. Finally, high temperature and duration associated with a medium volume of methylene chloride were better for the extractions. After this optimisation, five-ring and six-ring PAHs were nevertheless not satisfactorily desorbed. Other solvents were therefore tested. Only aromatic ones, and particularly heterocyclic aromatic solvents, managed to desorb the heaviest PAHs. Pyridine, with its both aromatic and its basic character, was the most successful solvent. Desorption was even complete with an addition of 17% of diethylamine into pyridine. So, using MAE, we succeeded in extracting quantitatively, from the spiked refractory diesel soot surface, two-ring to six-ring PAHs, heavy n-alkanes and short nitrated PAHs. However, heavy nitrated PAHs were better extracted with a small addition of acetic acid (1%) into pyridine instead of a basic cosolvent.
RESUMEN
In the context of a European project, a new approach of sampling of volatile polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from air was developed. In fact, the aim of this project was to test the efficiency of an air cleansing prototype reactor, which was operating by non-thermal plasmolysis. With an eye to model the atmosphere ejected by the prototype, we needed to vaporise the volatile PAHs in an air stream at concentrations as low as those recommended by European Directives (96/62/CE) for PAHs in ambient air (i.e. 1ng m(-3)). Our strategy was based on the analysis of PAHs trapped in an aqueous medium, in order to avoid important losses of volatile compounds observed during the delicate desorption-concentration step when classical solid supports are used. Then a study was carried out to determine: the design of the collecting part, the flow-rate of the air sampling, the nature and concentration of chemical additives used to enhance PAH solubility in water. The very highly diluted aqueous media obtained after the bubbling step were concentrated by solid-phase extraction (SPE) on hydrophobic cartridges and analysed on-line by reversed-phase HPLC with UV and fluorimetric detections. Lastly, the sampling technique was directly applied to the outlet of the air cleansing prototype and the analysis after 3-6h of non-thermal plasmolysis showed that the target volatile PAHs were not present in an air stream initially polluted by volatile organic compounds.
RESUMEN
The separation of KM 20, that is in fact a mixture of non-ionic surfactants, was carried out by non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis. This complex mixture resulting from the condensation of ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols does not have chromophoric moieties. So, we analysed it after derivatization by means of 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride. The proposed approach is based both on the formation of complexes with alkaline or ammonium cations in methanol and on the utilisation of a positively charged capillary. From a comparative study on the capillary treatment procedure, we used hexadimethrine bromide as electroosmotic flow reverser in order to obtain both repeatable analyses and good resolutions of the largest KM 20 oligomers. Then, among the five cations used to form complexes with KM 20, we pointed out that ammonium cation led to the best resolutions. Moreover, we evidenced that the counter-ion of this cation had a great influence on resolution because it modified the magnitude of electroosmotic flow. Ion pair formation that is more or less strong between ammonium and its counter-ion was involved in this variation of electroosmotic flow. So, we calculated the association constants for various ammonium salts in methanol. Then, using ammonium chloride as background electrolyte, we optimised the concentration of this salt, in methanol, in order to reach the optimal separation of KM 20 oligomers. Thus, a baseline separation was obtained by using 6 x 10(-2) mol/L NH4Cl as running electrolyte. In these conditions, we separated, in about 30 min, more than 30 oligomers of KM 20. The distribution of these oligomers that was determined from the optimal separation, appeared consistent with that obtained from HPLC analyses. Indeed, we determined that the mean ethoxylation number was equal to 18 while its real value is equal to 20.

We focused our work on the separation of phenothiazines that are important drugs used for the treatment of psychic diseases. For a better understanding of the metabolism of these solutes, we wanted to separate not only a mixture of 12 phenothiazines but also a mixture containing phenothiazines and their N-demethyl metabolites by capillary electrophoresis. Separations in capillary zone electrophoresis were performed using 3 x 10(-2) mol/L H3PO4 (pH 2.5) but the obtained resolutions were not entirely satisfactory especially with regard to phenothiazine -N-demethyl derivative pairs. To improve the obtained results, we have performed separations by using micellar electrokinetic chromatography. In this approach, we used a running electrolyte containing 3 x 10(-2) mol/L H3PO4 electrolyte (pH 2.5) and octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether (C12E8) as neutral surfactant. By introducing 2 x 10(-3) mol/L C12E8 in the electrolyte, 11 out of 12 phenothiazines have been baseline separated. With respect to the separation of a mixture containing 3 phenothiazines and their 3 demethyl derivatives, we obtained an excellent separation by using a running electrolyte prepared with 7.5 x 10(-4) mol/L C12E8 and 3 x 10(-2) mol/L H3PO4.

Research on the structure-activity relationships of molecules with acidic carbon atoms led us to undertake a feasibility study on the determination of their acidity constants by capillary electrophoresis (CE). The studied molecules had diverse structures and were tetronic acid, acetylacetone, diethylmalonate, Meldrum's acid, 3-methylrhodanine, nitroacetic acid ethyl ester, pyrimidine-2,4,6-trione, 3-oxo-3-phenylpropionic acid ethyl ester, 1-phenylbutan-1,3-dione, 5,5-dimethylcyclohexan-1,3-dione and homophthalic anhydride. The p Ka range explored by CE was therefore very large (from 3 to 12) and p Ka values near 12 were evaluated by mathematical extrapolations. The analyses were carried out in CZE mode using a fused silica capillary grafted (or not) with hexadimethrine. Owing to the electrophoretic behaviour of these compounds according to the pH, their acidity constants could be evaluated and appeared in perfect agreement with the literature data obtained, a few decades ago, by means of potentiometry, spectrometry or conductimetry. The p Ka of homophthalic anhydride and 3-methylrhodanine were evaluated for the first time.
RESUMEN
The sol-gel method is a widely used technique for the synthesis of various functional coating films. Alkoxysilanes such as (3-methacryloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (MEMO) are largely used as precursors for inorganic-organic hybrid sol-gel materials. Indeed, these compounds can form complex network, through hydrolysis and condensation reactions. The latter have to be perfectly controlled to obtain the required properties. In such a context, we have studied the potentialities of capillary electrophoresis-ion-trap mass spectrometry (CE-MS) coupling to resolve both separation and characterization of the synthesized compounds as a function of the hydrolysis time. The study of acid hydrolysis of MEMO was carried out as an example. After optimization of the running electrolyte in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with UV detection, we characterized the synthesized compounds in CE-MS by using positive detection mode. The obtained resolution in CZE-UV was not entirely satisfactory because of the very closed charge/mass ratio of formed solute but also because of the interaction between the solutes and the capillary walls. Nevertheless, several oligomers were characterized in CE-MS. The absence of detection with regard to oligomers that possess higher molecular masses than octamer is discussed in this work.

The adsorption isotherms onto a hydrophilic silica of mixtures of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and of all the oligomers of a polydisperse nonylethylene glycol n-dodecyl ether (C(12)E(9)) surfactant were determined using a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique. Incorporation of the anionic surfactant to the negatively charged silica surface is favored by the adsorption of the nonionic surfactant. Comparison between the adsorption isotherms of mixtures of SDS with a monodisperse C(12)E(9) and a polydisperse C(12)E(9) shows that the adsorption of SDS at the silica/water interface is stronger with the latter material than with the former in a large surface coverage domain. The composition of the surface aggregates and the variation of the oligomer distribution in these aggregates were determined. The previously described phenomena called self-desorption which was observed for the global C(12)E(9) and SDS surfactant mixtures was confirmed: increasing the total concentration at a fixed surfactant ratio induces at high concentration a desorption of the anionic surfactant and all of the less polar oligomers from the solid/water interface. An interpretation scheme is proposed which assumes that the interaction of SDS is larger with the less polar oligomers than with the polar ones. The self-desorption effect could then be considered as the consequence of the polydispersity of the nonionic surfactant and to the net repulsion interaction between SDS and the silica surface as the mole fraction of SDS in the surfactant mixture increases.

The aim of this work was to simultaneously analyse mixtures of a polydisperse polyethylene oxide (PEO) nonionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant (sodium dodecylsulphate, SDS) in water containing sodium chloride in order to quantify trace amounts of these mixtures after their adsorption at water-solid interfaces. A fractional factorial design was then used to optimise the separation by ion-pair reversed-phase liquid chromatography as a function of six factors: the chain length of the tetraalkylammonium salt used as ion-pairing reagent which varied from methyl (C1) to n-propyl (C3); the concentration of this ion-pairing salt; the acetonitrile percentage in water used as organic modifier; the flow-rate; the temperature of analysis and also the sodium chloride concentration. The factorial design enabled in a limited number of analyses, not only to determine which factors had significant effects on retention times or on resolution between a pair of nonionic oligomers, but also to modelize and then find the interesting and rugged area where this resolution was optimal as well as the conditions where time of analysis was not prohibitive. After optimisation of HPLC analysis, we used a trace enrichment procedure to quantify very low concentrations of SDS and C12E9 polydisperse PEO in water. A C18 cartridge and a strong anionic exchange cartridge were coupled and the conditions of elution were optimised in order to obtain concentrated samples which were injected in the same eluent than the HPLC mobile phase. Under such conditions, we were able to quantify, in a single run, mixtures of anionic and nonionic surfactants at concentrations as low as 3.6 microg l(-1) for SDS and 2.5 microg l(-1) for each PEO oligomer in water.

The potential of fluorescein sodium salt to generate a background signal in indirect fluorimetric detection in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) has been studied by using a sample test containing various alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol, propan-2-ol, 2-methylpropan-1-ol, pentan-3-ol, 2-methylbutan-1-ol, 3-methylbutan-1-ol), acetaldehyde, acetone and ethyl acetate. In order to optimize sample test resolution and detection sensitivity, we have studied different parameters: sodium dodecyl sulfate concentration, electrolyte ionic strength, applied voltage as well as that of the addition of an organic cosolvent within the running electrolyte. Although the micellar pseudo-phase was not able to be saturated with the fluorophore in order to obtain the maximal detection sensitivity, the detection thresholds were satisfactory. By way of example, the detection threshold reached for 3-methylbutan-1-ol is 0.03% (v/v). The quantitative aspect was approached with ethanol titration in a commercial white wine. Finally the repeatability relating to, on the one hand, the effective electrophoretic mobilities and, on the other hand, the corrected areas has also been studied.

A new method of bromine number determination appropriate to heavy-ends petroleum is reported. This method, which uses an electrochemical titration and tetrabutylammonium tribromide as reagent, has been tested on Boscan atmospheric residues. The titration of the unreacted tribromide ions and of the bromide ions produced enables the proportion of the bromine addition to multiple bonds and the proportion of substitution reactions with aromatic compounds (phenols, amines, etc.) to be estimated. The sensitivity and reproducibility of this easy method are both good.
