Abstract Content

Enantiomeric separation of pesticides and herbicides are of importance due to their ubiquitous presence in the environment which warrants detailed studies of their metabolism. Existing cyclodextrin based stationary phases have been successful in resolving some classes of pesticides and herbicides. However, for the chromatographic separation of many more, there is a constant search for novel structurally diverse stationary phases. Cyclofructans are a new class of stationary phases that are proven to have different selectivities and separation efficiencies than any other existing stationary phase available today. We have successfully synthesized and evaluated neutral and charged cyclofructan derivatives as chiral HPLC stationary phases. Enantiomeric separations of 34 chiral pesticides and herbicides were obtained with good selectivities and resolutions. The separated compounds include anilides, chloroacetanilides, phenoxypropionic acids, aryloxyphenoxypropionic acids, and imidazolinones.
