摘　　要：A quercetin-bonded silica gel stationary phase （QUSP） containing natural flavonoid ligand was first prepared via γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane （KH-560） as a coupling reagent for high-performance liquid chromatography. Its chemical structure was characterized by Fourier infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermal thermogravimetry and 13C cross polarization/magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance （CP/MAS NMR）. The chromatographic property of QUSP was systematically evaluated by using neutral, basic and acidic aromatic com- pounds as probes. In order to clarify its retention mechanism, a comparative study of QUSP with conventional oc- tadecylsilyl-bonded stationary phase （ODS） was also carried out under the same conditions. The results showed that the new quercetin-bonded phase exhibited an excellent reversed-phase chromatographic property with relatively weak hydrophobicity. However, it has an advantage over ODS in the fast separation of polar aromatic compounds because the quercetin ligand could provide various sites besides hydrophobicity, such as hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole, n-n staking and charge transfer interactions. QUSP was performed in the baseline separations of ion- ized polar basic or acidic compounds, including pyridines, anilines, pyrimidines, purines and phenols with symmet- ric peak shape in common mobile phases without buffer salt within relatively short time. The natural ligands from herbs are readily available and contain a variety of active sites, which facilitate the exploration of industrial chromatographic separation materials for green products.A quercetin-bonded silica gel stationary phase （QUSP） containing natural flavonoid ligand was first prepared via γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane （KH-560） as a coupling reagent for high-performance liquid chromatography.
