General description

(+)-1-(9-Fluorenyl)ethyl chloroformate is a highly fluorescent compound1 commonly used as a chiral derivatizing agent for the separation of racemates prior to reversed-phase HPLC analysis.

Application

  • Chiral analysis of β-methylamino alanine (BMAA) enantiomers: Details the use of (+)-1-(9-fluorenyl)-ethyl chloroformate (FLEC) for derivatization followed by LC-MS/MS analysis, improving the understanding of amino acids′ stereochemistry (Zurita et al., 2019).
  • Enantioselective micellar electrokinetic chromatography of dl‐amino acids: Utilizes (+)-1-(9-fluorenyl)ethyl chloroformate derivatization combined with UV-induced fluorescence detection to analyze amino acids, enhancing analytical methodologies (Prior et al., 2018).

A sensitive and selective high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of reboxetine enantiomers in human plasma was developed. Although two chiral centres are present in reboxetine, its stereospecific synthesis leads to two rather than four possible enantiomers. After extraction
