Investigation of the mechanism of enantioseparation of some drug compounds by considering the mobile phase in HPLC by molecular dynamics simulation.

The separation mechanism of chiral drugs in high-pressure liquid chromatography is yet ambiguous. Computational chemistry helps to gain insights about chiral drug separations. The interaction between the 13 drug enantiomers and cellulose tris (3, 5-dimethyl phenyl carbamate) (chiral cel OD) as chiral stationary phase in 3 mobile phases was assayed by AutoDock and LAMMPS simulations.
