In this paper, a new ligand-exchange -MEKC mode, based on the design of a unique lipohilic species (4'-octadecylneamine derivative), which served both as micelle-forming surfactant (by its hydrophobic part) and central ion-complexing ligand (by its hydrophilic part) is described. The CMC of the used lipophilic neamine derivative was first determined by surface tension measurements. Subsequent NMR experiments were performed in order to investigate the Cu(II) binding properties of the neamine micellar phase.

In this paper, we describe the preparation and the evaluation of a porous graphitic carbon (PGC) column coated with a new dinaphthyl derivative of neamine for chiral ligand-exchange (LE) chromatography. It was shown that the graphitic surface/dinaphthyl anchor system efficiently (1.15 micromol/m(2)) and stably (three months of intensive use) adsorbs the neamine template onto the chromatographic support.

In this paper, a new class of ligand-exchange chiral stationary phase (LE-CSP) based on the copper complexes of lipophilic aminoglycoside derivatives was reported. Different stationary phases were developed by coating reversed-phase liquid chromatography supports with three neamine derivatives carrying a lipophilic octadecyl chain at the 4', 5 and 6 positions, respectively. The enantioselective ability of these LE neamine-based CSPs was evaluated and the 4'-derivative coated column was found to be the most interesting one for the amino acid resolution.
