Summary Several reactions are tested for the chemical modification of alumina. These include the following: chlorination of the surface hydroxyls followed by reaction with an organolithium compound; chlorination of the surface hydroxyls followed by reaction with a Grignard reagent; chlorination of the surface hydroxyls followed by reaction with an amine; chlorination of the surface hydroxyls followed by reaction with an alcohol; direct reaction of the alumina with an organochloroalane and direct reaction of the alumina with an alcohol. Only the first reaction gave a product which contained enough bonded organic material to be easily detected by FTIR. Preliminary stability tests show that the product of the first reaction retains the bonded organic material when exposed to nonpolar and polar organic solvents as well as aqueous solutions of pH 1.0, 7.0 and 12.0. Chromatographic testing establishes reversed-phase behavior for alkylarylketones as solutes and the bonded phase displays good biocompatibility for a series of protein standards.
