Abstract

High-performance liquid chromatographic separations of monoacylglycerol enantiomeric mixtures as their di-3,5-dinitrophenylurethane derivatives were carried out on a chiral stationary phase, N-(R)-1-(α-naphthyl)ethylaminocarbonyl-(S)-valine bonded to silica gel. The conditions for the quantitative analysis ofsn-1 andsn-3 enantiomeric mixtures of six saturated 1-monoacylglycerols having consecutive even carbon numbers and ofsn-1 andsn-3 enantiomeric mixtures of 1-stearoyl-, 1-oleoyl-, 1-linoleoyl-, and 1-linolenoyl-glycerols were obtained. The linear relationships of logarithmic retention volumes against the number of carbons and olefinic bonds for the enantiomer homologous series are discussed, and a new concept of enantiomer separation is presented.
