title: Enantioseparation by ligand-exchange using particle-loaded monoliths: capillary-LC versus capillary electrochromatography.
abstract: Particle-loaded monoliths containing a polymethacrylamide backbone were prepared by suspending a silica-based chiral phase in the mixture of the monomers followed by in-situ polymerization in the capillary. As chiral selector l-4-hydroxyproline chemically bonded to 3 microm silica particles was used following the separation principle of ligand-exchange. Electrolytes containing Cu(II) ions were used. Amino acid enantiomers were separated by capillary-LC and CEC, whereby the latter showed the better resolution properties. For the chiral separation of alpha-hydroxy acids the EOF was reversed by copolymerizing diallyldimethylammonium chloride instead of vinylsulfonic acid as charge providing agent. Short columns of 6 cm were found to be sufficient in the case of CEC for baseline separations of amino acids with alpha values up to 5.
