Liquid Chromatographic Resolution of Racemic Drugs on Various $\alpha$-Arylalkylamine Derived Chiral Stationary Phases

After conversion to their 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl or 3,5-dinitroanilide derivatives, the enantiomers of a number of drugs may be chromatographically separated on various ${\alpha}$-arylalkylamine-derived chiral stationary phases (CSPs). While each CSP used in this study is useful, CSP 1 is best able to resolve the 3,5-dinitroanilide derivative of Ibuprofen while CSP 9 generally gives rather large ${\alpha}$ values for the resolution of 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl derivatives of the enantiomers of ${\beta}$-adrenergic blocking drugs.
