Separation using LCMS Gradient Method
The Cogent Diamond Hydride Column with gradient elution was used for analysis of Thiopurines. Figure A shows the Peak of 6-TG, which also can be analyzed using Isocratic conditions. Good retention and symmetrical peak shape were obtained under the analysis conditions.
Figure B represents two separated Thiopurines (Mono and Di- Phosphate forms). Figure C shows two Inosine compounds, one with an additional Methyl group, being separated.
Peaks:
A: Thioguanine (6-TG) at m/z = 168.0338 [M+H]+
B: 6-Thioguanosine -5´-Phosphate (TGMP) at m/z =380.3, 6-Thioguanosine -5´-Diphosphate (TGDP) at m/z= 460.3
C: 6-Methyl-Thioinosine-5´-Monophosphate (meTIMP) at m/z = 379.3 and 6-Thioinosine-5´-Triphosphate (TITP) at m/z = 525
