Use of a Macrocyclic Antibiotic as the Chiral Selector for Enantiomeric Separations by TLC

Abstract

The macrocyclic antibiotic, vancomycin, was used as a chiral mobile phase additive for the thin layer chromatographic (TLC) resolution of 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (AQC) derivatized amino acids, racemic drugs and dansyl-amino acids. Excellent separations were achieved for most of these compounds in the reversed phase mode. Both the nature of the stationary phase and the composition of the mobile phase strongly influenced enantiomeric resolution. The best results were obtained using diphenyl stationary phases. Acetonitrile was the organic modifier that produced the most effective separations with the shortest development times. It is highly likely that macrocyclic antibiotics will play a major role in future enantiomeric separations. © 1994, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
