Abstract
Cyclodextrin (CD)-modified microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC) or CD-MEEKC has not previously been applied to the area of chiral separations. Herein, the results of investigations of various microemulsions with CD additives are presented. Two different microemulsions are explored: an ethyl acetate sodium dodecyl sulfate microemulsion, and a chiral dodecoxycarbonylvaline (DDCV) microemulsion. Each microemulsion is paired separately with a neutral CD (hydroxypropyl-beta-CD) and an anionic CD (sulfated-beta-CD). In addition, the chiral DDCV microemulsion is investigated in both the R- and S- form. By varying simple parameters such as buffer system, applied voltage, surfactant enantiomer, and type of cyclodextrin, dramatic improvements in the chiral separations were noted. Resolution was found to be highly dependent on buffer identity and concentration, and somewhat dependent on whether the CDs used were randomly or highly sulfated. Under optimized conditions, the resolution ranged from 0.8 to 4.8, with plate counts ranging from 4000 to 26 000. Additionally, S- and R-levetiracetam, which had never before been enantioseparated via capillary electrophoresis (CE) methodologies, were separated in less than 8 min, with a resolution of 1.1.
