A Simplified Molecular Mechanics Calculation of Enantioseparation of Arylpropionic Acids in Chirex 3001 Stationary Phase
A very simplified molecular mechanics calculation approach is introduced. We simply used the most stable conformations of the CSP and R- and S-enantiomers, and considered only 10-20 major CSP-solute configurations and determined the lowest energy of each configuration by manually placing the solute...

Summary: | A very simplified molecular mechanics calculation approach is introduced. We simply used the most stable conformations of the CSP and R- and S-enantiomers, and considered only 10-20 major CSP-solute configurations and determined the lowest energy of each configuration by manually placing the solute around the CSP on a trial and error basis and by letting the system be optimized. The simplified molecular mechanics calculation of this study is somewhat useful to predict retention orders or to catch a rough figure on how differential interactions take place. |
