The newly prepared azo compounds having a long alkyl chain favorably orientate in the reversed-phase stationary phase such that the coordinating parts of the ligand may make contact with metal ions in the mobile phase. Bidentate ligands showed sharp peaks but almost no resolution of manganese and cadmium. A tridentate ligand strongly retained all the three metal ions, which could be separated within 10 min by a competing ligand and by optimizing the pH., application/pdf}, pages = {1011--1014}, title = {Bidentate and Tridentate Heterocyclic Azo Compounds Having Long Alkyl Chains as Coating Reagents for Ion Chromatography of Manganese, Zinc, and Cadmium Ions}, volume = {23}, year = {2007} }
