Gas chromatographic method was investigated for the chiral separation of several $\beta$-blockeros(atenolol, betaxolol, bisoprolol, metoprolol and pindolol) using (-)-$\alpa$-methoxy-$\alpa$-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetyl chloride as a chiral derivatizing agent for amino group. Prior to N-acylation, hydroxyl group was converted into O-silyl ethers by react with N-methyl-H-(taimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide. The reaction was selective and rapid and the diasteromeric derivatives were well separated by capillary gas chromatography. (R)-isomers were eluted faster than (S)-isomers when (-)-$\alpa$-methoxy-$\alpa$-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetyl chloride was used as the chiral derivatizing agent. But in the opposite sequence when (+)-$\alpa$-methoxy-$\alpa$-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetyl chloride was used. No racemization was found during the reaction.

Recently, particular attention has been paid to the chiral separation of amino acid enantiomers because of their different biological activities. Hence, the high optical purity of aromatic amino acids is critical because of their important functions in the central nervous system. For the accurate chiral discrimination. we attempted to exploit the crosschecking each enantiomeric migraion orders of aromatic amino acids measured using (+)-18C6H4TA and (-)-18C6H4TA as the chiral selectors under pH 2.0, tris/citric acid buffer.

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the qualitative and quantitative determination of benzophenanthridine alkaloids from the methanol extracts of Hylomecon hylomeconoides and H. vernale (Papaveraceae). Achiral and chiral methods were adapted for the separation of 6-methoxydihydrosanguinarine (1), 6-acetonyldihydrosanguinarine (2) and dihydrosanguinarine (3). The achiral reversed phase HPLC method made it possible the simultaneous separation and determination of 1, 2 and 3 within 20 min on ODS column using acetonitrile-phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 7.0) (50 : 50, v/v). The separation and determination of 1 and 2 enantiomers was available using chiral columns. The same amount of (+) and (-)-enantiomers of 1 was found from the methanol extract of specimen, indicated that 1 could be the artifact produced by the reaction of sanguinarine with methanol. H. hylomeconoides showed higher level of 1 and 3 in compared with H. vernale, especially in root samples permitting the possibility of chemical discrimination between two species.

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.

Deoxyribonucelic acid (DNA) molecules have a huge molecular weight so that DNA was reported to be a promising natural polymer to give durable films. Among many applications of DNA, the authors focused their attention on separation membranes derived from DNA because membranes will play an important role in environmental and energy related processes. DNA-polyion complex membranes were prepared from DNA and corresponding polycations. The DNA-polyion complex membranes showed chiral separation ability toward racemic amino acid mixtures.

A brush type chiral stationary phase (CSP 2) derived from ${\alpha}$-amino ${\beta}$-lactam was prepared for the separation of the enantiomers of ${\beta}$-blockers. Compared to the CSP derived from ${\alpha}$-amino phosphonate (CSP 1), in general, the conformationally rigid CSP 2 showed greater scope and much enhanced enantioselectivity for the resolution of ${\beta}$-blockers. The effect of various salt additives on enantioseparation of ${\beta}$-blockers in the mobile phase was investigated. The unusual effect of temperature on the chromatographic behaviors was observed on CSP 2. It also afforded appreciable increases in enantioselectivity without significantly affecting resolution, as the column temperature was reduced.

Although chiral separation has been one of the main topics of chromatographic practice for over twenty-five years, it still presents many difficulties. In this work, the ultrasonic dependence of chiral resolution was investigated at various temperatures to improve resolution and reduce analysis time. The chiral resolution was performed on recently commercialized two HPLC chiral stationary phases (CSP 1 and CSP 2) with the analogues of racemic N-acylnaphthylethylamines (1a-d) and racemic amino acid derivatives (2a-c, 3a-c) as analytes. The CSP 1 was prepared from a (R)-N-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)phenylglycinol and the CSP 2 was prepared from a (S)-N-3,5-(dinitrobenzoyl) leucine. From the comparison of the chromatographic results under sonic condition with those under non-sonic condition, we found that the ultrasound decreased the elution time in chiral chromatography at all temperatures and improved the enantioselectivity at high temperature (45, 50, 60 ${^{\circ}C}$).

Enantioselective macromer of trimesic acid was prepared using S(-) menthol with trimesoyl chloride on polyimide (PI) ultrafiltration membrane. The chemical composition of macromer as well as polyimide ultrafiltration membrane was determined by ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy. The optical resolution of chiral alcohols was performed in pressure driven process. The effect of monomer solutions concentration, effect of air-drying time of S(-) menthol solution, effect of reaction time, effect of operating pressure, effect of feed concentration of racemate on the performance of macromer was studied. The synthesised material exhibits separation of chiral alcohols (menthol ~23% and sobrelol ~21%).

Achiral-chiral column switching HPLC assay was developed to allow the separation and quantification of the enantiomers of terbutaline in human plasma by means of fluorescence detection. Plasma samples were prepared by solid-phase extraction with sep-pak silica, followed by HPLC assay. The enantiomers of terbutaline and the internal standard were separated from the biological matrix on a silica column, and the two enantiomers were resolved and quantified on a Sumichiral OA-4900 column. The two columns were connected by a switching valve equipped with silica trap column, The trap column was used to concentrate the terbutaline in the eluent from the achiral column before back flushing onto the chiral phase. For each enantiomers, the assay was linear between 2.5-125 ng/$m\ell$ (r=0.9999) and detection limit was 1.0 ng/$m\ell$ .
