Enantiomers, or molecule pairs that are mirror images of each other, make up more than half of FDA-approved drugs in use ...

Chiral molecules, which exist as two non-superimposable ... and their quantum states has profound implications, from spatial separation of enantiomers in the gas phase to testing hypotheses ...

and these achiral methods are not capable of performing the now necessary chiral separations. Polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases have been widely used in the pharmaceutical industry for ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/f9160d/chiral_separation) has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons ...

"As a robust chiral framework, the chiral separation and chiral catalysis have been explored," said Cai-Hong Zhan, a professor at the College of Chemistry and Materials Science, Zhejiang Normal ...

Now, a team of researchers demonstrates a reusable and scalable metal-organic framework (MOF) that can be used to do chiral separations with both polar and nonpolar solvents (J. Am. Chem.

The chiral separation can be achieved either by salt resolution, enzymatic resolution, or chiral chromatography. Salt resolution is common, but it involves a three-step process: salt formation, ...

This preferential adsorption could help separate chiral molecules, the scientists say. HPLC separations employ columns filled with a chiral material that adsorbs one enantiomer over the other.

“Our six complementary and highly enantioselective Lux chiral stationary phases in both 3µm and 5µm sizes greatly enhance our customers’ potential for baseline enantiomeric separation,” explained ...

Researchers from the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently developed a new platform for rapid chiral analysis, producing chromatogram-like output without ...
