Since their introduction on the market the applicability of immobilized polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases in high-performance liquid chromatography has been thoroughly investigated. These immobilized phases have the benefit to be applicable with a wide range of modifiers, potentially extending the application range of the polysaccharide-based stationary phases. Because an increasing...

Due to different physiological activities, the chromatographic separation of enantiomers is an important task in drug discovery and development. The determination of the enantiomeric excess (ee) is often done with supercritical fl uid chromatography (SFC) in combination with chiral stationary phases. Since fi nding the right stationary phase that provides separation of the enantiomers is diffi ...

Recently, it has been found that room-temperature ionic liquids can be used as stable, unusual selectivity stationary phases. They show "dual nature" properties, in that they separate nonpolar compounds as if they are nonpolar stationary phases and separate polar compounds as if they are polar stationary phases. Extending ionic liquids to the realm of chiral separations can be done in two ways:...
