New amphiphilic aminosaccharide derivatives as chiral selectors in capillary electrophoresis.
Two amphiphilic aminosaccharide derivatives were investigated as chiral selector additives in capillary electrophoresis. Each substance has a glucosamine backbone carrying three hydrocarbon chains as the hydrophobic region and three carboxylic groups as the hydrophilic region, which is an artificial biologically active compound. Using each compound as a chiral selector, the optical resolution of dansylated amino acids or new quinolone antibacterial agents (NQs) was observed. Increasing the concentration of the chiral selector or the ionic strength of running solution led to successful optical resolution. In consideration of the chemical structure of each selector and the migration behavior of the enantiomers, the resolution seemed to be based on micellar electrokinetic chromatography mode. Both selectors differed in their enantioselectivity for dansylated amino acids or NQs although the chemical structures were similar.
