Abstract
A separating agent for enantiomeric isomers has an enantiomerically active polymer compound supported thereon. The polymer compound has an exothermic peak before a decomposition temperature of the polymer compound supported is reached in a differential calorimetric curve obtained in a process of temperature elevation in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) on the separating agent. Also, disclosed is a method of evaluating asymmetry recognition ability of a separating agent for enantiomeric isomers. The method includes performing the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of a separating agent for enantiomeric isomers having supported thereon an enantiomerically active polymer compound to obtain a differential calorimetric curve in a process of temperature elevation therein, and observing presence or absence of an exothermic peak of the polymer compound in the differential calorimetric curve before a decomposition temperature of the supported polymer compound is reached. The evaluation method provides a simpler method for the evaluation of asymmetry recognition ability and thus provides a separating agent for enantiomeric isomers having higher ability of recognizing asymmetry.
