Enantiomers of Tröger's base were separated by capillary electrophoresis using 2(I) -O-, 3(I) -O-, and 6(I) -O-carboxymethyl-α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrin and native α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrin as chiral additives at 0-12 mmol/L for β-cyclodextrin and its derivatives and 0-50 mmol/L for α- and γ-cyclodextrins and their derivatives in a background electrolyte composed of sodium phosphate buffer at 20 mmol/L concentration and pH 2.5. Apparent stability constants of all cyclodextrin-Tröger's base complexes were calculated based on capillary electrophoresis data. The obtained results showed that the position of the carboxymethyl group as well as the cavity size of the individual cyclodextrin significantly influences the apparent stability constants of cyclodextrin-Tröger's base complexes.
