Published: December 2018

A fast and simple supercritical fluid chromatography method for the enantioseparation of twenty newly synthesized orthoconic antiferroelectric liquid crystals is reported for the first time. The effects of alkoxy spacer length and fluorine atom presence and position in the phenyl ring on chromatographic behavior were investigated. Baseline enantioseparation of all compounds was achieved using simple mobile phases consisting of carbon dioxide and alcohol as cosolvent on (3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) derivative of amylose as chiral stationary phase. The analysis times ranged from 2 to 4 and from 4 to 7 min for most samples when using methanol and propane-2-ol, respectively. The significant effect of cosolvent type on the enantioseparation of these compounds was assessed and partial complementarity of methanol and propane-2-ol was observed.

Lipidomics has attracted attention in the discovery of unknown biomolecules and for capturing the changes in metabolism caused by genetic and environmental factors in an unbiased manner. However, obtaining reliable lipidomics data, including structural diversity and quantification data, is still challenging. Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is a suitable technique for separating lipid molecules with high throughput and separation efficiency.

Supercritical CO, as an environmentally friendly and pollution-free fluid, has been applied in various EOR techniques such as CO flooding. However, the low viscosity of the gas leads to issues such as early breakthrough, viscous fingering, and gravity override in practical applications. Although effective mobility-control methods, such as CO WAG (water alternating gas)-, CO foam-, and gel-based methods, have been developed to mitigate these phenomena, they do not fundamentally solve the problem of the high gas-oil mobility ratio, which leads to reduced gas sweep efficiency.

Efficient enantioselective separation is a critical process in pharmaceutical and chemical industries for the production of chiral compounds. Herein, we developed a novel approach for the efficient enantioselective separation of primary amines using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) with a commercially available SFC column, Cel1. The key factors of separation, including cosolvent ratios, total cosolvent percentages, and temperature, were systematically assessed in this study.
