RESOLUTION OF ENANTIOMERS BY HPLC ON CELLULOSE TRANS- AND CIS-TRIS(4-PHENYLAZOPHENYLCARBAMATE)

Abstract
Cellulose tris(4-phenylazophenylcarbamate) (CPAPC) having azobenzene pendant groups was adsorbed on silica gel to use as a chiral stationary phase for HPLC. Pure trans-CPAPC resolved many racemic compounds, whereas 70% cis-CPAPC showed very poor resolving power.
