Activated alpha-alkyl-alpha-arylacetic acid enantiomers for stereoselective thin-layer chromatographic and high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of chiral amines
Abstract
The separation of racemic benoxaprofen into the two benoxaprofen enantiomers by preparative high-performance liquid chromatography and the application of the activated enantiomers as derivatization reagents for the simultaneous stereoselective determination of chiral amines in biological material is described. Activated (+)- and (-)-benoxaprofen are both shown to be very sensitive and stable chiral fluorescence markers, applicable to thin-layer chromatography as well as to high-performance liquid chromatography.
