The adsorption of two typical hydro-organic mobile phases, with methanol and acetonitrile as the organic component, on an antibiotic based chiral stationary phase (CSP) Nautilus-E was studied by the minor perturbation method. In both cases, the excess adsorption of water was positive over a wide range of concentrations from 0 to ∼75 or 90 mol% for MeOH or MeCN containing mobile phases, respectively. Such hydrophilic properties of the CSP were attributed to multiple polar functional groups of the chiral ligand and to the residual silanol groups of the silica support. The adsorbed phase was found to be thinner for H₂O-MeOH (∼1.1Å) and thicker for H₂O-MeCN (∼9.4Å). The measurements of the column hold-up volume by different methods allowed us to suggest a model of the adsorbed phase consisting of the volume between bound chiral selectors inaccessible to large size molecules and of the stagnant layer of the mobile phase adsorbed on the external surface of the chiral selectors.

Viedma deracemization mechanisms in self-assembly processes.

Simulations on an ODE-based model shows that there are many common points between Viedma deracemization and chiral self-assemblies of achiral building blocks towards chiral nanoparticles. Both systems occur in a closed system with energy exchange but no matter exchange with the surroundings and show parallel reversible growth mechanisms which coexist with an irreversible cluster breaking (grinding). The various mechanisms of growth give rise to the formation of polymerization/depolymerization cycles while the consecutive transformation of achiral monomer into chiral cluster results into an indirect enantioselective autocatalysis.

Computer simulation was utilized to characterize the electrophoretic processes occurring during the enantioselective capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) analysis of ketamine, norketamine, and hydroxynorketamine in a system with partial filling of the capillary with 19 mM (equals 5%) of highly sulfated γ-cyclodextrin (HS-γ-CD) and analyte detection on the cathodic side. Provided that the sample is applied without or with a small amount of the chiral selector, analytes become quickly focused and separated in the thereby formed HS-γ-CD gradient at the cathodic end of the sample compartment. This gradient broadens with time, remains stationary, and gradually reduces its span from the lower side due to diffusion such that analytes with high affinity to the anionic selector become released onto the other side of the focusing gradient where anionic migration and defocusing occur concomitantly.

Background: The metal organic cages (MOCs) are an emerging type of porous material that has attracted considerable research interest due to their unique properties, including good stability and well-defined intrinsic cavities. The chiral MOCs with porous structures have broad application prospects in enantiomeric recognition and separation. However, there are almost no relevant reports on chiral MOCs as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for enantioseparation by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Despite having identical physicochemical properties, chiral molecules require effective separation techniques due to their distinct pharmacological effects. Polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases (CSPs) are widely used for chiral separations in liquid chromatography; however, the mechanisms of chiral recognition are not well understood. This research explored the adsorption, retention, and chiral recognition mechanisms of three amylose-based CSPs: Chiralpak ID, IF, and IG.
