A new method to prepare polysaccharide-coating type chiral stationary phases(CSPs) was developed in this work. As a typical example, naked silica gel was coated by cellulose, which was then derivatized with 3,5-dimethylbenzoyl chloride to afford cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylbenzoate)-silica gel(CTDBS) complex. The silanols on CTDBS were end-capped with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane to obtain CSP 1. The amino groups on CSP 1 were further end-capped with 3,5-dimethylbenzoyl chloride to give CSP 2. The silanols on CTDBS were end-capped with methyltrimethoxysilane to yield CSP 3. CSPs 1-3 were characterized by FTIR, solid-state 13C-NMR and elemental analysis. The enantioseparation abilities of CSPs 1-3 were evaluated with structurally various chiral analytes. The enantioseparation results demonstrated that the end-capping moieties on CSPs 1 and 2 significantly affected enantioseparation. In addition, the effect of the structures of chiral analytes and endcapping moieties on the retention factors and the resolutions was discussed.
A new way to prepare cellulose-type chiral stationary phases (CSPs) has been established in the present work.Cellulose microspheres with a volume-average diameter of 11.5 m were prepared by an emulsion-solidification method.Three new CSPs were obtained by crosslinking the cellulose microspheres with terephthaloyl chloride (TPC),and then modifying the crosslinked microspheres with 4-methylbenzoyl chloride,3,5-dimethylbenzoyl chloride and 3,5-dichlorobenzoyl chloride,respectively.The microspheres and the CSPs were characterized by FT-IR,element analysis and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM).The chiral recognition ability of the CSPs was evaluated with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).The chromatographic results demonstrate that the CSP prepared from 3,5-dichlorobenzoyl chloride possesses better chiral recognition ability compared with two other CSPs.

Two chiral selectors were synthesized from tartaric acid. The selectors were simultaneously immobilized on 3-aminopropyl silica gel to obtain a new biselector chiral stationary phase (CSP) in order to determine the influence of selector structure of biselector CSPs on the chiral recognition capability. For comparison, the single-selector CSP was also prepared. The biselector CSP shows an improved overall chiral recognition capability in comparison with the single-selector CSP. During the enantioseparation, temporary diastereoisomers are likely formed by complexation between a chiral analyte and the two selectors on the biselector CSP. The functional groups in the two selectors are complementary in electronic effect and/or in steric hindrance for the chiral recognition.
