Exploitation of the enantioselectivity space of coated amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) in mixtures of 2-propanol and acetonitrile.

Chiral stationary phases (CSPs) with coated amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (ADMPC) selector have long been recognized for their excellent chiral recognition ability in liquid chromatography. The conformational versatility behind this feature is the source of their known hysteretic behavior, which has been previously observed in polar organic (PO) mode eluents containing 2-propanol (IPA). Mixtures of IPA and acetonitrile (MeCN), a typical PO mode eluent system, have not been examined in this aspect yet, even though hysteresis is promising for finding unique unexplored enantioselectivities.
