Introduction
Pharmaceutical industryR and S have enantiomers different
propertiesFDA prefers single enantiomers
>1/2 of Top 500 drugs
Single-enantiomer drug sales increases every year
Expanding field of business
Non-Separation Techniques
Polarimetry Circular dichroism Nuclear Magnetic Resonance using
shift agents Enantioselective sensors
– Enzyme reactions

Other Separation Techniques
Synthesize diastereoisomers & separate on achiral column– HPLC on C-18 column
CEC - Capillary electrochromatography– Add an pseudo-stationary phase enantiomer to a
buffer Direct separation by high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC)– Chiral Stationary Phase (CSP)

Quality of Separation
Number Theoretical PlatesN = 16 (tr /w)2
Capacity Factork’ = (tr - tm) / tm
Selectivity Factor = k 'B / k 'A
Christian, Gary. Analytical Chemistry, 5th Edition, John Wiley and Sons, New York 1994.
Thermodynamics of Chromatography
Distribution coefficientKD = Cs / Cm
Cs =concentration of solute in stationary phase
Cm=concentration of solute in mobile phase
Capacity factork’ = (tr - tm) / tm
k’ = KD (Vs / Vm) = KD =phase ratio or (Vs / Vm)

Thermodynamic Properties
At equilibrium,G = - RT ln KD
Substituting and rearrangingG = - RT ln k’ (Vm/Vs) G = -RT ln k’ (1/) G = - RT [ln k’ + ln (1/)]
G = - RT [ln k’ - ln ] [4] Schrum, D. The Synthesis and Characterization of Polyacrylate Anion-Exchange Stationary Phases for Protein Separations in Liquid Chromatography (Thesis), Purdue University Graduate School: 1996, 125-160.
Traditional Van’t Hoff Plots in ChromatographySubstituting G = H -TS H -TS = - RT [ln k’ - ln ] Rearrangeln k’ = -H / RT + S / R + ln If is known and constant, a plot of ln k’vs 1/T
Slope of -H / RT Y-intercept of + S / R + ln

Polysaccharide CSP for HPLC unknown because volumes change
with mobile phase conditions Adapted Van’t Hoff plot
– Where G, H and S are the differences of G, H and S for a given pair of R and S enantiomers
– Temperature will be changed– Mobile phase composition will remain
constant
Weng, W; Zeng, Q; Yao, B; Wang, Q; Li, S. Chromatographia. 2005, 61, 561-566.
Adapted Van’t Hoff Plot
The change in free energy will be reflected in the relative capacity factors for each enantiomer
G = -RT ln (kr’/ks’)Where is constant and drops out for both
enantiomersSubstituting:
ln = -H / RT + S / RPlot of ln vs 1/T
Slope = -H / R Intercept = S / R
Weng, W; Zeng, Q; Yao, B; Wang, Q; Li, S. Chromatographia. 2005, 61, 561-566.
Previous Research Weng et al: Polysaccharide column separating
derivatized amino acids and binapthyl compounds
Hexane and 2-propanol– <3% alcohol had lower tr and better separation
Hydrogen bonding & π- π interactions– AA w/ phenyl had larger enantioselectivity than
methyl
Weng, W; Zeng, Q; Yao, B; Wang, Q; Li, S. Chromatographia. 2005, 61, 561-566.
Weng et al (continued) AA separated at different temperatures
– ln vs. 1/T– Enthalpy driven
H and S both negative
Weng, W; Zeng, Q; Yao, B; Wang, Q; Li, S. Chromatographia. 2005, 61, 561-566.
Amino Acid Derivative
Enthalpy driven– Strong H-bonding or - interactions w/ CSP– Phenyl group enhanced– Methyl group has less interactions
