title: Enantiomeric separation by capillary electrochromatography. I. Chiral separation of dansyl amino acids and organochlorine pesticides on a diol-silica dynamically coated with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin.
abstract: In this work, a commercially available diol-silica stationary phase was converted in situ to a chiral stationary phase by dynamically coating it with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD). This stationary phase was shown useful for the capillary electrochromatography (CEC) separation of neutral and anionic enantiomers such as some organochlorine pesticides and dansyl amino acids, respectively. The inclusion of HP-beta-CD in the mobile phase to produce the in situ chiral stationary phase allowed the rapid separation of the anionic dansyl amino acid enantiomers at relatively low electroosmotic flow (EOF). The formation of host-guest complexes between the dansyl amino acids and the neutral HP-beta-CD in the mobile phase lowered the actual charge-to-mass ratios of the anionic solutes, thus speeding up their transport by the EOF across the packed capillary column. Several parameters affecting enantioseparation were investigated, including the concentration of HP-beta-CD, ionic strength, pH, and organic modifier content of the mobile phase.
