General description

(±)-3-Benzyloxy-1,2-propanediol undergoes enantioseparation by ligand exchange micellar electrokinetic chromatography using borate anion as a central ion.

Application

(±)-3-Benzyloxy-1,2-propanediol was used in capillary electrophoretic enantioseparation of vicinol diols using different β-cyclodextrin derivatives and borate. It was used in the synthesis and immobilization of 2,3-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycerol-1-tetraethylene glycol-(3-trichloropropyl-silane) ether lipid (DPTTC) and 2,3-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycerol-1-tetraethylene glycol-(3-chloro-dimethylpropyl-silane) ether lipid(DPTDC).
