SummaryFollowing an extended screening project, 86 racemic drugs were investigated by capillary zone electrophoresis in the presence of the chiral solvating agent (CSA) hydroxypropyl-b-cyclodextrin. A total of 42 drugs out of 86 tested was thereby separated into enantiomeric pairs. Statistical analysis of the numerous experiments performed un der identical conditions reveals a loose correlation of the migration separation factor (a m ) with the migration retardation factor (R m ). For a subset of 23 drugs, a drop in the concentration of the CSA was also studied, showing the way to further optimization.

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.
