Abstract
The stereochemical separation of free and derivatized amino acids on active α‐chymotrypsin bonded to silica is governed by two mechanisms based on the structure of the solutes or on the enzymatic activity of the enzyme. Te deactivation of the hydrolytically active site of the enzyme demonstrated that a significant portion of the retention on this support is due to hydrophobic interactions at other sites. These sites appear to be stereoselective for the ester derivatives of amino acids but not for the other studied solutes.Keywords
