Although both phases have biphenyl containing modifications, several reversals of the order of elution occur. The reason for this is the dilution of the p-p interactions by the two isobutyl groups. Mononuclear aromatics, which show rather less interactions with the biphenyl groups, gain in retention in comparison to the polynuclear aromatics and the steroid progesterone.

Biphenyl p² and 6 8
Biphenyl is a new biphenyl modified core shell silica. The introduction
of bulky substituents to the silicon atom improves the stability of this stationary phase against acidic conditions. The selectivity is significantly different from octadecyl and octyl sorbents. The biphenyl ligand plays a crucial role in the interactions of this phase. Due to the influence of the two isobutylgroups, significant differences in the selectivities between NUCLEOSHELL®

p² can be observed. The change
of acetonitrile and methanol makes it possible to influence the strength of the p-p interactions and is therefore another exciting tool for optimising the separation.
