Abstract
To fully exploit the attractive visible diode laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection technique in column liquid chromatography (LC), covalent labeling procedures need to be developed which are compatible with near-infrared fluorescence. For this purpose, several red-absorbing labels containing a single succinimidyl ester functionality were synthesized and used for the derivatization of primary and secondary amines. Oxazines/thiazines, squaraines, and dicarbocyanines were examined as redabsorbing fluorophores. The quality of the LC-diode LIF system for the analytes concerned is illustrated by the concentration detection limit of the labeled n-octylamine (a test compound), which was as low as 2 x 10
