The use of zeolites as catalysts, desiccants for solvents and gases, and selective adsorbents for the separation of low-molecular-weight compounds is widely known. Zeolites also serve extensively as packing materials for chromatographic columns in gas-adsorption chromatography. However, their application to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is less recognized. In HPLC, the retention of adsorbates depends not only on adsorption interactions but also on the molecular sieve effect in the micropores and kinetically selective effects. Additional interactions with the mobile phase components alter the thermodynamic parameters of the adsorbates interaction with the zeolite, decrease effective pore size, and hinder the diffusion of the separated compounds into the adsorbent’s pores. Despite these challenges, zeolites remain promising adsorbents due to their strictly determined pore size (<i>d</i><sub>pore</sub>) and geometry, as well as their customizable polarities, which ensure high selectivity for the separation of low-molecular-weight compounds. The most promising zeolites for HPLC are wide-pore zeolites (<i>d</i><sub>pore</sub> 0.6–0.8 nm) with 8, 10, 12, and 14-member ring channels.

Vanadium(V) and R form a colored complex at a component ratio of 1 : 2 and pH of 5.0–5.5. The absorbance maximum of the complex is at 449 nm, while the reagent under these conditions absorbs light at 395 nm. In the presence of cationic surfactants, mixed-ligand complexes with a component ratio of V(V) : R : CS = 1 : 2 : 2 are formed, which results in a bathochromic shift of the absorbance maximum. Additionally, the pH value for the maximum complex formation shifts to a more acidic medium compared to the homoligand V(V)–R complex. The absorbance of the V(V) : R : CPCl, V(V): R : CPBr, and V(V) : R : CTMABr complexes is maximal at 457, 461, and 466 nm, respectively. The yield of these complexes is the highest at pH of 3.5–4.0 for VV(V) : R : CPCl and V(V): R : CPBr, and at a pH of 2.5–3.0 for V(V) : R : CTMABr.
