Liquid chromatographic enantiomer separation of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) derivatives was performed using several chiral stationary phases (CSPs) based on polysaccharide derivatives under fluorescence detection. For enantiomer separation by normal HPLC, the non-aqueous derivatization method of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters for NBD analytes was introduced. Among the six CSPs used in this study, the performance of Chiralpak IA was superior for enantiomer resolution of NBD derivatives of several ${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl esters. Also the convenient analytical method using polysaccharide-derived CSPs developed in this study was applied to determine the optical purity of ${\alpha}$-amino acids esters. It was investigated that the enantiomeric impurity levels of 0.02-1.73% were found after determination of enantiomeric purities of several commercially available L-amino acid methyl esters. It is expected to be quite useful for enantiomer separation of other ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as NBD derivatives by normal HPLC.

A new convenient derivatization method of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) derivatives for chiral resolution was introduced and the enantiomer separation of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as NBD derivatives was performed by normal HPLC using chiral columns based on polysaccharide derivatives. The NBD derivatives were readily prepared by stirring NBD-Cl and ${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl ester HCl with $NaHCO_3$ in ethanol. The performance of Chiralpak IA was superior to the other chiral stationary phases for enantiomer resolution of NBD derivatives of several ${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl esters. Owing to fluorescence detection as well as strong UV absorption, it is expected that the convenient analytical method developed in this study will be very useful for enantiomer separation of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as NBD derivatives on polysaccharide-derived chiral columns.

Liquid chromatographic enantiomer separation of ${\alpha}$-amino acids and their methyl and ethyl esters as fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (FMOC) derivatives was performed using a recently developed chiral column (Chiralpak IE) based on polysaccharide derivative under simultaneous UV detection and fluorescence detection. The degree of enantiomer separation of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as FMOC derivatives is generally higher than that of the corresponding ${\alpha}$-amino acids. Especially, ${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl esters showed the greatest enantioseparation. As this method developed in this study can be applied to determine the chemical and optical purity of ${\alpha}$-amino acids and esters, it is expected to be quite useful for their chiral separation using Chiralpak IE.

The chromatographic enantiomer separation of 9-anthraldimine derivatives of ${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl and ethyl esters on four polysaccharide based chiral columns was performed. The 9-anthraldehyde Schiff base derivatives of ${\alpha}$- amino acid esters were readily synthesized by stirring the ${\alpha}$- amino acid ester hydrochloride salts with 9-anthraldehyde in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0]undec-7-ene as a base and anhydrous $MgSO_4$. Chiralcel OD or Chiralcel OD-H showed the greatest enantiomer resolution of 9-anthraldimine derivatives of ${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl and ethyl esters. The L-enantiomers of all the analytes were preferentially retained on Chiralcel OD or Chiralcel OD-H. This analytical method was applied in the determination of optical purities of several commercially available D- or L-${\alpha}$-amino acid methyl esters.

Enantiomer separation of N-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (FMOC) $\alpha$-amino acid was performed on covalently immobilized chiral column (Chiralpak IB) based on polysaccharide derivative as a chiral selector by reversed phase liquid chromatography. The effect of the reversed mobile phase on the chromatographic parameters of the enantioselectivities, resolution factors and retention times using covalently immobilized Chiralpak IB was shown. Also the enantiomer separation of N-FMOC $\alpha$-amino acid in the reversed and normal phase was compared and the results obtained in the former mobile phase were generally lower than those in the latter mobile phase.

A convenient liquid chromatographic enantiomer separation of several ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as benzophenone Schiff base derivatives on covalently immobilized chiral stationary phases (CSPs) derived from polysaccharide derivatives was developed. The benzophenone imine derivatives of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters were readily prepared by stirring benzophenone imine and the ${\alpha}$-amino acid ester hydrochloride salts in 2-propanol. The chromatographic conditions used on all CSPs were 0.5% or 5% 2-propanol/hexane (V/V) as the mobile phases at 1 mL/min of flow rate and UV 254 nm detection. The performance of Chiralpak IC among all CSPs was superior to that of the other CSPs for resolution of benzophenone imine derivatives of ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters. It is expected that the developed analytical method will be useful for enantiomer resolution of other ${\alpha}$-amino acid esters as benzophenone Schiff base derivatives.

Liquid chromatographic enantiomer separation of N-tert-butoxycarbonyl (BOC) $\alpha$-amino acids and their ethyl esters was performed on covalently immobilized chiral column (Chiralpak IC) derived from polysaccharide derivative. The solvent versatility of the covalently immobilized Chiralpak IC in enantiomer separation of N-BOC $\alpha$-amino acid ethyl ester derivatives was shown and the chromatographic parameters of their enantioselectivities and resolution factors were greatly influenced by the nature of the mobile phase. Also the effect on the dissolving solvent for these analytes on the enantiomer separation using the same mobile phase and the examples of preparative enantiomer separation on analytical column were shown.

Considering the greater role of α-amino acids in our daily lives, the enantiomer resolution of seven α-amino acids derivatized with fluorogenic reagent (4-fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole, NBD-F) by chiral HPLC on amylose or cellulose trisphenylcarbamate derived chiral stationary phases (CSPs) under simultaneous ultraviolet (UV) and fluorescence (FL) detection was performed. The degree of enantioseparation and resolution was affected by nature and selector backbones of the CSPs as well as the kind of amino acids. Baseline enantiomer separation and resolutions were observed for the enantiomers of all analytes as NBD derivatives especially on coated type amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) derived CSPs (Chiralpak AD-H and Lux Amylose-1). The other CSPs also showed good enantioselectivity except for the CSPs (Chiralpak IB, Chiralcel OD-H and Lux Cellulose-1) having cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) as chiral selectors. The developed analytical chiral method was applied to determine the enantiomeric purity of seven commercially available L-α-amino acids and the impurities as D-forms were found to be in the range 0.08-0.87 %, respectively. The intra- and interday accuracy and precision assays showed high accuracy and precision of the developed analytical method. This chiral HPLC method for the enantiomer resolution of amino acids using fluorescent derivatization could be useful for the determination of enantiomeric purity of pharmaceuticals and biological study for amino acid type compounds among chiral drugs.

The importance of separation comes from demands on study for exact effect of synthetic drugs and the reactivity of enantiomer in biological system. Racemization rate was measured under the influence of heat, acid, UV-light, enzyme(trypsin) and 6N-HCl at $105^{\circ}C$ on alanine, threonine, isoleucine, lecuine, aspartic acid, methionine, glutamic acid, tyrosine. The method for the identification of overlapped amino acids with GC was developed from the close study of fragmentation pattern with mass spectrometry. With cyclodextrin bonded phase by HPLC, the separation of dansyl amino acid was tested for compartison.

Liquid chromatographic enantiomer separation of amino alcohols was performed on several chiral columns based on polysaccharide derivatives under the mobile phase conditions containing acid or base additive. The chromatographic parameters were greatly influenced by the nature of the mobile phase containing acid or base additive as well as the used chiral columns. Compared to chromatographic results obtained in the mobile phase containing base additive (0.1% triethylamine), especially, Chiralcel OD showed dramatically enhanced separation factors and resolution factors with reduced capacity factors under the mobile phase condition containing acidic additive (0.1% trifluoroacetic acid). When the mobile phase containing 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid and 0.05% triethylamine was used on Chiralcel OD, the greatest separation factors and resolution factors among all other mobile phase conditions in this study were observed.
