Disclosed is a configurational stereoisomer, named enantiomer E.sub.1, of bromadiolone having, by chromatographic analysis of bromadiolone including four configurational stereoisomers of bromadiolone performed under the conditions described below, a retention time t.sub.1 having a value such that t.sub.1<t.sub.2<t.sub.3<t.sub.4; t.sub.2, t.sub.3 and t.sub.4 being the retention times of the configurational stereoisomers of bromadiolone different from the enantiomer E.sub.1, the analysis being performed at a temperature of 27.3 C.

Disclosed is to a laevorotatory enantiomer of the configurational stereoisomer of difethialone, named hetero-stereoisomer, the formula of which is 3-(4-bromobiphenyl-4-yl)-1-(4-hydroxythiocoumarin-3-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene, in which carbons 1 and 3 of the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene group have different absolute configurations.

Provided are two-dimensional chromatography systems and methods for separating and/or analyzing complex mixtures of organic compounds. In particularly, a two-dimensional reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC)-supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) system is described including a trapping column at the interface which collects the analytes eluted from the first dimension chromatography while letting the RPLC mobile phase pass through. The peaks of interest from the RPLC dimension column are effectively focused as sharp concentration pulses on the trapping column, which is subsequently injected onto the second dimension SFC column. The system can be used for simultaneous achiral and chiral analysis of pharmaceutical compounds. The first dimension RPLC separation provides the achiral purity result, and the second dimension SFC separation provides the chiral purity result (enantiomeric excess).

The problem addressed by the present invention is to provide a novel method for separating and purifying pure enantiomer of lenalidomide. Pure enantiomer of lenalidomide can be separated and purified by using, as the mobile phase, an organic solvent selected from the group consisting of aprotic solvents, secondary alcohols, and mixtures thereof.

Provided is a separation method for amine, the separation method including performing liquid chromatography, wherein a separating agent in which a ligand having a crown ether-like cyclic structure is supported on a carrier is used as a stationary phase, and wherein a mobile phase contains an aqueous solution of at least one salt of a hydrophobic anion selected from the group consisting of a salt of a chaotropic anion and a salt of a hydrophobic organic acid.

A microfluid device includes: a separation channel having a tunnel shape; an obstacle having a columnar shape and provided in the separation channel; and a ligand supported on a surface of the obstacle, and the ligand is an optically active polymer.

The present invention relates to the field of separating chiral isomers from each other. Particularly, it relates to the field of separating of chiral isomers of chromane or chromene compounds, particularly tocopherols, 3,4-dehydro-tocopherols and tocotrienols, as well as the protected forms thereof. It has been found that the use of supercritical carbon dioxide as mobile phase combined with the very specific chiral phase as stationary phase leads to a very efficient separation of the individual chiral isomers. As the method is very efficient and fast combined with advantageous in view of ecology it is of big industrial interest.

The present invention provides novel chromatographic materials, e.g., for chromatographic separations, processes for its preparation and separations devices containing the chromatographic material; separations devices, chromatographic columns and kits comprising the same; and methods for the preparation thereof. The chromatographic materials of the invention are high purity chromatographic materials comprising a chromatographic surface wherein the chromatographic surface comprises a covalently-bonded surface group and one or more ionizable modifier.

Provided is a separating agent for optical isomers, which is excellent in solvent resistance and has optical separating ability comparable to or higher than that of existing separating agents for optical isomers of chemical bonding type or physical adsorption type. In the separating agent for optical isomers, amylose (3-chloro-5-methylphenylcarbamate) is supported on a carrier through chemical bonding.

The present invention relates to methods for separating enantiomers of 5-phenyl and 5-naphthyl substituted 4-(aminomethyl)-6-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)phthalazin-1(2H)-ones using N-Boc-L-phenylalanine, N-Boc-D-phenylalanine, and similar chiral acids.
