M. Thunhorst et U. Holzgrabe, UTILIZING NMR-SPECTROSCOPY FOR ASSESSING DRUG ENANTIOMERIC COMPOSITION, Magnetic resonance in chemistry, 36(3), 1998, pp. 211-216
Heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetylated)-beta-cyclodextrin was tested for its uti
lizability to check the enantiomeric purity of the chiral protonated p
henethylamines, such as selegiline, amphetamine and norephedrine, by m
eans of NMR spectroscopy. For all compounds, the method turned out to
be a powerful and rapid tool, which should be considered more frequent
ly in drug analysis.
