Chiral stationary phases offer 'exceptional' separation

Published: 1-Apr-2005

Chiral Technologies Europe has launched Chiralpak QD-AX and QN-AX, two new Daicel chiral stationary phases (CSPs) designed specifically for enantioselective HPLC of chiral acids.


Chiral Technologies Europe has launched Chiralpak QD-AX and QN-AX, two new Daicel chiral stationary phases (CSPs) designed specifically for enantioselective HPLC of chiral acids.

These weak anion-exchange HPLC columns are based on complementary quinine (QN) and quinidine (QD) derivatives, originally developed by Professor Lindner's research group in Vienna. They are said to possess 'exceptional' separation capabilities for acidic chiral compounds containing carboxylic, phosphonic, phosphinic, phosphoric or sulfonic acid groups.

Both chiral supports are compatible with all common HPLC solvents, and show excellent and complementary chiral recognition abilities. These new supports, specially adapted for the resolution of acidic enantiomers, expand the application coverage of the well established Chiralpak and Chiralcel columns from Daicel.

Chiral Technologies Europe has a technical centre in Illkirch,France that offers HPLC and SFC chiral columns and bulk chiral stationary phases for preparative and industrial scale production of enantiomers. The centre supplies technical support, method development services and outsourcing possibilities for the preparative separation of enantiomers.
