It is not a coincidence that both chirality and noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in
nature and synthetic molecular systems. Noncovalent interactivity between chiral molecules …

Biosystems, including ourselves, are very sensitive to the chirality of compounds; for
instance, monosodium L-glutamate is tasty, while its D-isomer is tasteless, and in many …

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC) over chiral
stationary phases (CSPs) represent the most popular and highly applicable technology in …

More than 50% of pharmaceuticals in current use are chiral compounds. Enantiomers of the
same pharmaceutical have identical physicochemical properties, but may exhibit differences …

The provision of pure enantiomers is of increasing importance not only for the
pharmaceutical industry but also for agrochemistry and biotechnology. In general, there are …

An overview of the state-of-the-art in LC enantiomer separation is presented. This tutorial
review is mainly focused on mechanisms of chiral recognition and enantiomer distinction of …

Separations and analyses of chiral compounds are important in many fields, including
pharmaceutical production, preparation of chemical intermediates, and biochemistry. High …

Chiral drugs, agrochemicals, food additives and fragrances represent classes of compounds
with high economic and scientific potential. First the present implications of their chiral …

The planning and development of new chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for liquid
chromatography (LC) are considered as continuous and evolutionary issues since the …

Resolution of racemic compounds is one of the potential ways of obtaining both
enantiomers. Among several resolution techniques in the past few decades, direct …
