The enantiomeric separation of alkylamino derivatives of aryloxypropanols u
sing macrocyclic bonded chiral stationary phases was studied. Teicoplanin a
nd vancomycin chiral stationary phases were used to separate a large number
of derivatives of aryloxypropanol enantiomers by HPLC in the polar-organic
mode. By comparison of chromatographic parameters obtained by using both c
hiral stationary phases (CSPs), aspects of the enantioselective separation
mechanism could be discerned. Originally, the polar organic mode was develo
ped for chiral compounds that contained a minimum of two hydrogen bonding g
roups, resulting in a minimum of two hydrogen bonding interactions to the C
SP. This work demonstrated that a combination of one hydrogen bonding inter
action and one electrostatic interaction is equally effective. The environm
ent (i.e., functional groups) nearest to the stereogenic center of the aryl
oxypropanols had the greatest effect on the enantioresolution. Teicoplanin
CSPs produced the greatest Delta DeltaG(o)'s and the best enantiomeric sepa
rations of these compounds. The site of a possible electrostatic interactio
n of these compounds is different from that found for amino acids.
