A TLC plate was run in 1:1 ethyl acetate and hexane, but when developed the plate...
Common solvents used in TLC analysis are hexane and ethyl acetate, the latter being more polar. A TLC has been performed on a mixture of two compounds. The solvent ran for 3 cm(plate length is 6cm) with 5% ethyl acetate in hexane. The two spots were not resolved, meaning they showed up too close to each other. What can you suggest to possible improve the results of the separation?
If acetaminophen is used in a TLC experiment with 100 % ethyl acetate as the solvent system, explain in terms of polarity why the spot would move fast or slow up the TLC plate?
If aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) is used in a TLC experiment with 1:1 Hexanes / Ethyl acetate as the solvent system, explain in terms of polarity why the spot would move fast or slow up the TLC plate?
