Characterization of a thermally induced irreversible conformational transition of amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phase in enantioseparation of dihydropyrimidinone acid by quasi-equilibrated liquid chromatography and solid-state NMR.

A thermally induced irreversible conformational transition of amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (i.e., Chiralpak AD) chiral stationary phase (CSP) in the enantioseparation of dihydropyrimidinone (DHP) acid racemate was studied for the first time by quasi-equilibrated liquid chromatography with cyclic van't Hoff and step temperature programs and solid-state ((13)C CPMAS and (19)F MAS) NMR using ethanol and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)-modified n-hexane as the mobile phase.
