“…Recently, HPLC has become useful not only for determining the optical purity of enantiomers but also for preparing enantiopure standards. So far, more than 100 CSPs have been sold commercially [14], and approximately 99% of enantiomeric separations were carried out by HPLC on various CSPs [15]. Based on their different chemical structures, CSPs can be divided into at least seven classes, including Pirkle's type, polysaccharides, cyclodextrins, macrocyclic glycopeptide antibiotics, proteins, crown ethers and ligand exchangers.…”
