Sažetak
New brush-type chiral stationary phases (CSP I-IV) comprising N-3, 5, 6-trichloro-2, 4-dicyanophenyl-L-alpha-amino acids (1-4) were prepared by binding of chiral selectors 1-4 to gamma-aminopropyl silica gel. To check the role of excess free aminopropyl groups, CSP V was prepared by binding N-3, 5, 6-trichloro-2, 4-dicyanophenyl-L-alanyl-(3-triethoxysilyl)propylamide to unmodified silica gel. The best separation of racemic 2-aryloxypropionic acids (TR-1-13) was obtained with CSP I ; the -(-)-S enantiomer were regularly eluted first, as determined by a CD detector. The mechanism of chiral recognition implies a synergistic interaction of carboxylic acid analyte with the chiral selector and achiral free gamma-aminopropyl units on silica. In fact, CSP V, which is lacking an achiral aminopropyl spacer, shows a lower separation ability for 2-aryloxypropionic acids, but a similar enantioselective discrimination of esters TR-19-20, in comparison with CSP I. CSP I-IV retain unaltered separation ability after a few months of continuous work using a large number of various mobile phases.
