| Abstract: | The chiral selectivity of ristocetin A was examined in a countercurrent process in CE using a coated column to suppress electroosmotic flow. Excellent enantioseparations of several nonsteroidal antiinflammatories, dansylamino acids, dinitrophenyl‐derivatized amino acids, and other optically active compounds were achieved. The chiral selectivity of ristocetin A also was examined as a function of antibiotic concentration and pH. Enantioresolution was found to significantly improve with a slight increase in migration time upon increasing chiral selector concentration. Enantioselectivities were found to be greatly influenced by pH of the running buffer. Chirality 11:663–668, 1999. © 1999 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. |
