The dabsylation of amino acids has been applied to resolve their optical isomers with the use of chiral mobile phase in high performance liquid chromatography. The dabsyl amino acids were successfully separated on reversed phase column($C_{18}$) by adding a chiral L-benzylproline-Cu(II) chelate to the mobile phase. The separation selectivity of the dabsyl amino acid enantiomers was not less than that of dansyl amino acids. The retention order of the dabsyl amino acid enantiomers was as those of the dansyl amino acid enantiomers except dabsyl threonine. The optical selectivity of the dabsyl amino acids increase with pH of the mobile phase and concentration of the chelate, but slightly decreases with concentration of buffer and organic solvent composition. However serine, methionine, valine, and leucine showed a slight decrease in the optical selectivity with increase in pH. The retention times of the dabsyl amino acids decreases with increasing pH and acetonitrile concentration but increases with the concentration of the chiral chelate added. The mechanism of the optical resolution is based on a stereospecific interaction including a intramolecular hydrophobic effect and SN-2 reactivity of the ligand exchange chromatography.It is advantageous to detect absorption at 436 nm, which is less interferent them the other detection systems. The derivatized dabsyl amino acids are stable for a month.

The enantiomers of five amino acids (alanine, valine, threonine, leucine and phenylalanine) could be separated by gas chromatography with optically active (S)-5-isopropyll-$N^3$-phenyl-2-thiohydantoinic stationary phase, which prepared from L-valine and phenylisothiocyanate. Gas chromatographic separations on methylesterificated and N-trifluoroacetylated amino acids have been conducted in isothermal at several column temperatures (180~190, 200, $210^{\circ}C$). The separation factors were 1.29 (alanine, $190^{\circ}C$), 1.35 (valine, $190^{\circ}C$), 1.33 (threonine, $190^{\circ}C$), 1.17 (leucine, $190^{\circ}C$) and 1.05 (phenylalanine, $190^{\circ}C$) and D-isomers eluted prior to L-isomers in every instance. The result of this experiment shows that this stationary phase can be used for the separation of the other amino acids enantiomers.

The enantiomeric separation of several amino acid derivatives by reversed-phase liquid chromatography using two (R)-and (S)-naphthylethylcarbamate-β-cyclodextrin(NEC-β-CD) bonded stationary phases was studied to illustrate the chiral recognition model of the enantiomeric separation. The retention and enantioselectivity of the chiral separations with (R)-and (S)-NEC-β-CD bonded phases were compared with similar separations with the native β-CD stationary phases. Especially, the enantioselectivity and elution orders between the derivatized amino acid enantiomers are carefully examined. These results can be illustrated by the chiral recognition models involving inclusion complexation, π-π interaction, and/or hydrophobic interaction. Inclusion complexation and hydrophobic interaction of the naphthyl group of the NEC moiety seem to be major chiral recognition components in the enantiomeric separation of 2,4-dinitrophenyl amino acids and dabsyl amino acids on (R)-and (S)-NEC-β-CD columns. For dansyl amino acids, only the inclusion complexation is the dominant factor. Three different chiral recognition models containing π-π interaction, inclusion complexation and hydrogen bonding were proposed for the separation of the 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl amino acid enantiomers, depending on the size and shape of amino acids.

We prepared a simple, economic and versatile preparative system for an enantiomeric separation. Hydrophobic amino acid enantiomers were resolved in the preparative scale by a centrifugal liquid chromatography on the N-hexadecyl-L-proline coated reversed phase. The factors controlling the retention and resolution of racemic amino acids such as the concentration of Cu(Ⅱ), pH of the eluent, the type and content of organic modifier, and rpm of CLC were examined. Several mg of hydrophobic amino acid enantiomers were separated preparatively. To separate all of different amino acid enantiomers, various coating material will be investigated.

Resolution of enantiomers of DNS-amino acids has been achieved by a reversed phase liquid chromatography with an addition of a copper(Ⅱ) complex of N-benzyl-L-hydroxyproline to the mobile phase. N-Benzyl-L-hydroxyproline was prepared and used as a chiral ligand of copper(Ⅱ) chelate for the optical resolution. The pH and the concentration of copper(Ⅱ) chelate, organic solvent, and buffer agent in the mobile phase all affect the optical resolutions of dansyl amino acids. The elution orders between D and L-DNS-amino acids were different depending on the structure of the side chain of the amino acids. The retention mechanism for the chiral separation of the dansyl amino acids can be illustrated by the equilibrium of ligand exchange and by hydrophobic interaction with $C_{18}$ stationary phase. The chiral separation can be illustrated with cis and trans effect of the ligand exchange reaction.

New diamide chiral stationary phases of four systematically substituted optically active N-(N-benzoyl-L-amino acid)-anilide synthesized from L-valine, L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-phenylalanine were described. The behaviors of these diamides as optically active stationary phases for the separation of N-trifluoroacetyl-D,L-amino acids were examined with respect to separation factors(${\alpha}$) and thermodynamic properties of interaction. The separation of twelve N-trifluoroacetyl-D,L-amino acid isopropyl esters were improved by the order of N-(N-benzoyl-L-leucyl)-anilide>N-(N-benzoyl-L-isoleucyl)-anilide>N-(N-benzoyl-L-valyl)-anilide>N-(N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanyl)-anilide. Eight amino acid derivatives with non-polar R-group and threonine, serine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid enantiomers were separated on N-(N-benzoyl-L-leucyl)-anilide as chiral stationary phase with good separation factor between 1.07-1.25. The separation factors decreased with respect to increasing column temperature. Possible working temperature of diamide phase was between $130-190^{\circ}C$ for N-(N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanyl)-anilide and $130-180^{\circ}C$ for other three diamide phases. The differential Gibb's free energy (${\Delta}{\Delta}G$) of enantiomers was in the range of -100--180 cal/mol for ten amino acids and -40--60 cal/mol for alanine and aspartic acid.

This study was designed to investigate the influence of the pH and enantiomer on the antioxidant activity of Maillard reaction mixture solution in model systems. The loss of glucose in MRPs did not show different characteristics for the different amino acid enantiomers; however, the concentration of glucose decreased as the pH levels increased. The enolization of sugars was observed in all MRP samples according to increase of pH levels. In addition, D-amino acids were detected in L-amino acid systems and L-amino acids could also be observed in D-amino acid systems. Formation of the isomer was the highest in the Glc/L-Lys system. The browning development increased as pH levels increased; however, browning development did not show different characteristics based on the use of L- versus D-isomers of the same amino acid. The L- and D-isomers show different absorption values in the UV-Vis spectra, but the absorption patterns display a similar shape. The antioxidant activities of MRPs derived from the Glc/Gly, Glc/L-Asn and Glc/D-Asn systems at pH 7.0 were greater compared to those of pH 4.0 and pH 10.0. The antioxidant activities of MRPs derived from the Glc/L-Lys and Glc/D-Lys systems decreased as the pH increased. In addition, the results show that the MRPs derived from the D-isomers have similar antioxidant activities as those from L-isomer. Therefore, the MRPs have the different antioxidant activities on the basis of the pH level, but not on the basis of different amino acid enantiomers.

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.

A metal complex, copper (II) L-proline was chemically bound to ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and divinylbenzene crosslinked chloromethylated polystyrene and they were used as chiral chelate resin matrix for column chromatography to resolve enantiomers of DL-amino acids. The L-enantiomers eluted first and the degree of resolution on the polymer crosslinked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate was superior to the polymer crosslinked with divinylbenzene.
