LIPODEX^® cyclodextrin phase for enantiomer separation

Base material: cyclic oligosaccharide consisting of eight glucose units bonded through α-1,4-linkages (y-cylodextrin) regioselective alkylation and acylation of the hydroxyl groups leads to a lipophilic phase, which is well suited for GC enantiomer analyses; important advantage: many compounds can be analysed without derivatisation (however, for certain substances enantioselectivity can be favourably influenced by formation of derivatives).

Octakis-(2,6-di-O-pentyl-3-O-butyryl)-γ-cyclodextrin. Recommended for α-amino acids, α- and β-hydroxycarboxylic acid esters, alcohols (TFA), diols (TFA), ketones, pheromones (cyclic acetals), amines, alkyl halides, lactones.

• Max. temperature for isothermal operation: 200 °C
• Max. temperature for short isotherms in a temperature programme: 220 °C
