Research Abstract |
Polysaccharides such as cellulose and amylose are some of the most readily available optically active polymers. Although these polymers have stereoregular sequences consisting of D-glucose, their chiral recognition abilities are not large. However, these polysaccharides have hydroxyl groups which can be readily converted to esters and carbamates. In this study, the novel regioselectively substituted cellulose and amylose have been synthesized, and their abilities of enantiomer resolution in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) have been evaluated. These derivatives exhibited the relatively high chiral recognition abilities comparable or better to the derivatives with the same substituent at all hydroxyl groups.
