It is OK to use chloroform in a shim-pack CLC-SIL column. What you have to pay attention to is the compatibility of chloroform to your LC system. For certain LC systems equiped with inline degasser chamber, chloroform is inapplicable because it may cause corrosion to the degasser chamber.
In fact, variety of mobile phases could be utilized in such sort of analyses. But one f the main problems in this case is its volatility and compatibility with the column ad detectors used.in Lc-bsed analyses, why don’t you use the common liquid phases such as acetonitrile, methanol and H2O with different polarities particuylarly in gradient elution mode
