Chiral mesostructured hydroxide zinc carbonate for enantioseparation in high performance liquid chromatography†
Abstract
Chiral mesostructured hydroxide zinc carbonate coated silica gel (CMHZC@S) was prepared by a hydrothermal route using amino acids as symmetry-breaking agents. CMHZC@S with three levels of hierarchical chiralities, as a chiral stationary phase (CSP), showed enantiomeric separation ability for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
