A generic approach to chiral separations using capillary electrophoresis is outlined. The generic method was developed by investigating the interactions of Ž . charged sulfobutyl ether--cyclodextrin, SBE--CD and neutral cyclodextrins Ž . Ž primarily ␥and dimethyl--cyclodextrin in a low pH buffer 50 mM sodium . Ž . dihydrogen phosphate, pH 2.5 . Using a background electrolyte BGE containing Ž . 5% wrw SBE--CD, 25 mM ␥-cyclodextrin ␥-CD and 25 mM dimethyl--CD Ž . DM--CD dissolved in the phosphate buffer, resolution of more than 90% of the 26 randomly selected racemic pharmaceutical drugs or their synthetic intermediates was achieved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
