The coupling of columns in sub/supercritical fluid chromatography presents a great opportunity for influencing the separation efficiency and extending the selectivity of the separation system. Combinations of different types of chiral stationary phases could positively affect the enantioresolution if single ones are complementary to each other. In this work, two superficially porous particle (2.7 μm) macrocyclic glycopeptide-based columns, namely TeicoShell and NicoShell, were serially coupled and tested in sub/supercritical fluid chromatography for the first time. The influence of the column arrangement on the enantioseparation of structurally diverse biologically active compounds was examined. The obtained results showed how the column order crucially affected the enantioresolution of compounds tested, but the retention was negligibly affected in most cases. We also demonstrated that single TeicoShell and NicoShell columns are very promising towards the development of highly efficient and fast/ultrafast sub/supercritical fluid chromatography methods for structurally different chiral compounds. The optimized methods for sub-minute enantioselective separation of certain biologically important compounds were proposed.
Comprehensive study of enantioselective potential of eight different chiral stationary phases for chiral liquid crystal-forming molecules was conducted. The tested columns were: (i) polysaccharide-based Trefoil AMY1, CEL1 and CEL2 and (ii) superficially porous particles packed TeicoShell, VancoShell, TagShell, DMP-MaltoShell, and NicoShell. To test their enantioselective potential for these separations, twenty racemic mixtures of rod-like liquid crystalline materials comprising three different types of chiral centres and various other structural differences were used. Mobile phases consisting of supercritical carbon dioxide and alcohol as cosolvent were used; selected alcohols were methanol, ethanol and propan-2-ol. Effect of acidic and/or basic additives on enantioselectivity was also evaluated. Chiral stationary phases based on polysaccharides were found to have the greatest enantioselective potential for rod-like molecules that form liquid crystals, followed by TeicoShell, which proved suitable for enantioseparation of non-halogenated liquid crystals with lactic acid-based chiral centre.
