Abstract

Chiral recognition between cellulose tris(5-fluoro-2-methylphenylcarbamate) (MW > 120,000) as a host compound and (R,S)-1,1'-binaphthol (MW 286) as a guest compound was investigated by fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FAB-MS). The use of negative ion FAB-MS made it possible to obtain a very simple mass spectrum of the guest compound with a high signal-to-noise ratio. Additionally, when nitrophenyl octyl ether, which has no OH group, was utilized as matrix, chiral recognition between the host and the guest compounds was unequivocally detected.
