Chiral separations by liquid chromatography

About this book

"A definitive reference for researchers working on problems involving chirality. Presenting state-of-the-art information, this volume covers all the major modes of separation and offers contributions from the leading researchers who developed these techniques. Four chapters provide a detailed review of the commonly used columns: brush type, cyclodextrin, polysaccaride carbonate, and protein. Many of the papers focus on HPLC, a technique which is also ideally suited for large scale preparation of optical isomers. In addition, the volume provides significant discussion on the use of chiral discriminators or selectors."--Publisher description (LoC).
