Designed more than thirty years ago in order to improve and maximize the discrimination
capability of native polysaccharides, cellulose-and amylose-based selectors have shown …

The σ-hole interaction represents a noncovalent interaction between atoms with σ-hole (s)
on their surface (such as halogens and chalcogens) and negative sites. Over the last …

The last frontier in the chiral stationary phases (CSPs) field for chromatography
enantioseparations is represented by homochiral metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a class …

Liquid‐phase enantioseparations have been fruitfully applied in several fields of science.
Various applications along with technical and theoretical advancements contributed to …

The chalcogen bond (ChB) is a noncovalent interaction based on electrophilic features of
regions of electron charge density depletion (σ-holes) located on bound atoms of group VI …

The chromatographic performances of four coated and immobilized amylose
phenylcarbamate-based chiral columns were evaluated and compared under normal phase …

In the last few years, halogen bonds have been exploited in a variety of research areas both
in the solid state and in solution. Nevertheless, several factors make formation and detection …

Halogen bond (XB)-driven enantioseparations involve halogen-centred regions of electronic
charge depletion (σ-hole) as electrophilic recognition sites. The knowledge in this field is still …

Although the halogen bond (XB) has been so far mainly studied in silico and in the solid
state, its potential impact in solution is yet to be fully understood. In this study, we describe …

Imazalil is a widely used systemic chiral fungicide that is still being employed as a racemic
mixture without distinguishing the difference between enantiomers, which often leads to its …
