Abstract
The chiral recognition mechanism for a series of d, l-dansyl-amino-acids (test solutes) on a teicoplanin stationary phase was investigated in reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). The effect of both a surface tension modifier (sucrose) and a chaotropic agent (perchlorate anion) on the enantiomeric separation was studied by varying their concentration, c, in the mobile phase. The thermodynamic data supported the fact that the sucrose molecule acted only on the hydrophobic part of the interaction teicoplanin/dansyl-amino-acid and not on the specific chiral part. It was demonstrated that the enhancement of the separation factor observed as the perchlorate salt concentration increased in the mobile phase was enthalpically controlled owing to stereoselective bonding interactions. Such behavior was used to optimize the chromatographic conditions for separation of dansyl-amino-acids on teicoplanin.
