“…Specifically, direct chiral separation using chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has significantly evolved during the past few decades and is recognized as the most popular and reliable tool for both the analysis of enantiomer compositions and the preparation of pure enantiomers. − Chiral separations can be achieved using chiral mobile phases for the HPLC. , One of the advantages of this method is that the association constant between enantiomers and chiral selectors can be estimated by changing the concentration of chiral selectors in mobile phases. , However, this approach is not mainstream due to the disadvantages of the inconvenience of preparative purpose. Besides HPLC, supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has received increasing attention and has played a dominant role in the progress of chromatographic chiral separation due to its high resolution, low organic solvent consumption, short analysis time, and high productivity. − In addition, capillary electrophoresis, capillary electrochromatography, and microchip techniques have also been developed for small-scale separations and used for the microanalysis of chiral compounds. − Furthermore, the recent incremental growth of simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography has opened up the possibility for industrial-scale chromatographic separations of chiral compounds, which is one of the final goals of the pharmaceutical industry. − …”
