H. Ihara et al., FUNCTIONAL ORGANIC GELS - ENANTIOSELECTIVE ELUTION USING CHIRAL GELS FROM AMINO ACID-DERIVED LIPIDS, Liquid crystals, 20(6), 1996, pp. 807-809
The L-glutamic acid-derived lipids form organic gels in benzene, which
show enantioselective elution of N-dansyl L-phenylalanine from organi
c gels to aqueous phases. Differential scanning calorimetry and circul
ar dichroism measurements demonstrate that this enantioselectivity occ
urred through highly-oriented structures of aggregated lipids like tho
se of aqueous lipid membrane systems.
