Abstract
AbstractThe elution profiles of several essential oils of the Myrtaceae family were acquired using a single enantioselective stationary phase column. These chromatograms were compared with those obtained by using a two‐column coupled system, which comprised a low‐polarity stationary phase column connected to the terminal end of the enantioselective column. The enantiomeric distributions of β‐pinene, sabinene, α‐phellandrene, limonene, trans‐ and cis‐sabinene hydrate, linalool, terpinen‐4‐ol and α‐terpineol were determined. The use of a two‐column coupled system is demonstrated to be useful for improving the resolution of target (chiral) compounds from otherwise interfering matrix components.
