If you have really tried everything, then there is nothing we can do. However, if you can give us some more information, then there is a chance that someone can suggest something you haven't tried.
For example: are you a student doing the separation as a class/lab project or is this a professional problem?
Can you tell us more about your compound(s)? If it is one basic compound in the Cl- or azide (N3-), then dissociation in aqueous solution will make the separation impossible.
Can you tell us more about what type of TLC plates you have tried (silica, reversed-phase, ???).
