Solvent Rf of A Rf of B Rf of C
10% ethyl acetate-90% hexanes  .12 .07 .01
20% ethyl acetate-80% hexanes  .34 .29 .10
30% ethyl acetate-70% hexanes  .53 .42 .22
40% ethyl acetate-60% hexanes  .72 .61 .35
The R; values determined on silica gel TLC plates for Compounds A, B, and C are tabulated in
Table 11.5.
(a) In order to purify Compound A, which of the solvent systems should be used to develop the
column in a flash chromatography procedure?
(b) Could 90 mg of a mixture of Compound A and Compound B be separated by macroscale
flash column chromatography (10 mm column) using 20% ethyl acetate-80% hexanes as the
eluting solvent?
(c) Could 90 mg of a mixture of Compound A and Compound C be separated by macroscale
flash column chromatography (10 mm column) using 20% ethyl acetate-80% hexanes as the
eluting solvent?
