Chirality, 21(1), 183-198 (2008-08-14)
The chromatographic enantioseparation of small unfunctionalized chiral alkanes C*HR(1)R(2)R(3) (R = alkyl) represents a challenge in separation science. Because of the lack of any functional groups, enantiorecognition in the presence of a chiral selector is solely based upon weak enantioselective
