Notes:
The maximum in the dependence of the separation selectivity on the concentration of cyclodextrin may be utilized for the determination of the mean value of host-guest interaction constants of the separated enantiomers. For the hosting of N-t-BOC-DL-tryptophan by β-cyclodextrin, the mean value of these constants, found by drop line estimated from the cyclodextrin concentration corresponding at the maximum, is 350 L.mol-1. The separation at this concentration of cyclodextrin offers the highest resolution in the shortest separation time. It is shown that commonly used simple preliminary experiments, testing the capability of a cyclodextrin to resolve chiral compounds, and based on relatively high cyclodextrin concentrations, may easily lead to incorrect conclusions in cases of enantiomers strongly interacting with the cyclodextrin used.
