Abstract
Preparative-scale separations of chiral compounds were achieved by high-speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC) using a multilayer coil planet centrifuge equipped with a 325 mL capacity column. The separations were performed by two different procedures both utilizing a set of N-(3,5-introbenzoyl)-D,L-amino acids as test samples with N-dodecanoyl-L-proline-3,5-dimethylanilide as a chiral selector (Cs). The HSCCC separations were carried out with a two-phase solvent system composed of hexane/ethyl acetate/methanol/water where the chiral selector was added to the organic stationary phase. A second procedure using pH-zone-refining CCC yielded characteristic fused rectangular peaks in which the two isomers were resolved with less than 5% of overlap.
