Chirality is an academically exciting and interesting topic, as most active ingredients have chirality. Chiral enantiomers with the same molecular shape show different effects from each other in terms of pharmacological, pharmacokinetic, and toxicology. There are many examples of these differences that have caused dramatic, even fatal damage. For these reasons, it is of great importance to developing an effective method to achieve chiral identification and separation, and chiral separation methods are becoming increasingly important in both the pharmaceutical industry and clinical studies. Electrochemical techniques, which can provide many advantages over other classical methods, have attracted great interest in chiral recognition in recent years. In this review, extensive and critical research of the trends in chiral recognition in recent studies is explained. Especially the role of cyclodextrins derivatives in chiral analysis has been investigated and the studies related to this are explained and given in the tables. In addition, some remarks and future perspectives in the field of chiral recognition are also discussed in the concluding part.

Single-Template Molecularly Imprinted Chiral Sensor for Enantioselective Recognition of Various Chiral Amino Acids Based on a Dummy Template Strategy.

Designing single-template molecularly imprinted chiral sensors for the enantioselective recognition of various chiral amino acids (AAs) is of great importance for chiral analysis. Here, a dummy template-based chiral sensor is developed by using l-alanine (l-Ala) as the dummy template and poly(-phenylenediamine) as the imprinting layer, which can be used for the enantioselective recognition of various chiral AAs such as Ala, tryptophan (Trp), tyrosine (Tyr), cysteine (Cys), and arginine (Arg). Compared with conventional single-template molecularly imprinted chiral sensors, the designed single-template chiral sensor shows great universality for the recognition of chiral AAs since all chiral AAs possess an Ala-analogous segment.

Introducing chiral molecules into metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to obtain chiral MOFs (CMOFs), the tunability of their structures makes them a highly anticipated class of chiral materials for electrochemical sensing. However, the structure of CMOFs is often limited by synthesis challenges, and introducing chiral molecules into MOFs often leads to a decrease in their internal space. This study introduces a defect engineering strategy into the synthesis of CMOFs to obtain CMOFs with defects, which is an efficient synthesis method.

Assembling chiral coordination polymers into nano/microflower structures may improve their performance in applications such as chiral recognition and separation. In this study, we chose a chiral metal phosphonate system, , In(NO)/-, -pempH [pempH = (1-phenylethylamino)methylphosphonic acid], and carried out systematic work on the self-assembly of this system in different alcohol/HO mixed solvents under solvothermal conditions. Enantiomeric compounds -, -[In(pempH)(μ-OH)(HO)](NO) (R-, S-1) were obtained showing dense layered structures, but their morphologies varied with alcohol solvent.

Chiral discrimination is an indispensable tool that has pivotal importance in the assignment of absolute configuration and determination of enantiomeric excess in chiral compounds. A series of enantiomerically pure -1,2-diaminocyclohexane (-DACH)-derived benzamides were first synthesized by simple chemical steps, and 14 variated derivatives have been assessed as NMR chiral solvating agents (CSAs) for discrimination of the signals of mandelic acid (MA) in H NMR analysis. The highly efficient chiral recognition of CSA on different substrates, including MAs, carboxylic acids, amino acid derivatives, and phosphoric acids (32 examples), was expanded via H, F, and P NMR spectroscopy.

Integrating two or more materials to construct membranes with heterogeneous pore structures is an effective strategy for enhancing separation performance. Regularly arranging these heterogeneous pores can significantly optimize the combined effect of the introduced components. Porous Organic Cages (POCs), an emerging subclass of porous materials composed of discrete molecules, assemble to form interconnected pores and exhibit permanent porosity in the solid state.
