Outline of Final Research Achievements

To develop a new separation medium modified with C60-fullerene and evaluate its retention properties, a specific agent, perfluorophenyl azide (PFPA) was employed for the interface for the immobilization of C60-fullerene. After the research period, a new capillary column, which was prepared with a silica monolith modified with high density C60-fllerenes, was successfully prepared, and the column showed the specific retentions based on the π stacking. Additionally, the column provided the unique spherical recognition due to the attached C60-fullerene.
