The urgent demand for pure biological and pharmaceutical enantiomers has brought together great efforts in developing chiral techniques. High-performance liquid chromatography employing chiral stationary phases (CSPs) has evolved as a powerful tool for both chiral analysis and manufacture of pure enantiomers. Herein, we describe a facile method to prepare a phenylcarbamate cyclodextrin (CD)-based CSPs via azide/alkyne click chemistry. The functionalities of CD rims are altered to mediate the enantioseparation performance in multimode high-performance liquid chromatography.
