Description

Covers the Fundamentals of Chiral Separation, Available Chiral Selectors, and Numerous Applications of Chiral Separation by Capillary Electrophoresis

Since the 1980s, modern analytical tools have enabled capillary electrophoresis to become a standard part of the chemist’s toolkit. With contributions from international experts, Chiral Separations by Capillary Electrophoresis provides a general overview of the principles of chiral separation by capillary electrophoresis and the different chiral selectors available.

The book discusses the most important as well as several new chiral selectors used in capillary electrophoresis. It reviews recent pharmaceutical and biomedical applications and explores novel techniques, such as capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass spectrometry and microchip technology. The book also examines the quantitative aspects of capillary electrophoresis, the possibilities of capillary electrochromatography, and the various chiral columns available.

Capillary electrophoresis has proven to be an effective tool for chiral separation. This book explains how this technique can be used in the separation of molecules, offering insight into both existing and emerging applications.

Reviews

"The book has a good plan and the authors have delivered on their assignments, With this one resource the reader can quickly obtain a current snapshot of the increasing use of capillary electrophoretic methods for the separation of the enantiomers of pharmaceutical compounds as well as the research that is currently underway to expand these methods."

Chromatographia, JAN 2011, 73:197-198

"…this book provides a thorough introduction to the fundamental reaction classes in organometallic chemistry and a systematic survey of important catalytic methods. Organic chemists with little or no formal training in transition-metal chemistry often find themselves using transition-metal reagents or catalysts, and such individuals will find this to be a particularly useful resource. Meanwhile, experienced researchers and others with a strong background in the field will appreciate the extensive compilation of leading references to primary journal and review articles, which are cited liberally throughout the volume. The logical and systematic presentation of content in the book is well suited to meet the needs of students and researchers alike … This book is destined to be the go-to resource for the field of transition-metal organometallic chemistry for many years to come. It will undoubtedly find a place on the bookshelf of virtually every organic and inorganic chemist, alongside classics like March's Advanced Organic Chemistry and Cotton and Wilkinson's Adlmnced Inorganic Chemistry."
