Approaches to improve resolution in chiral sep-aration of several basic pharmaceutical com-pounds by capillary electrophoresis (CE) via a cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complexation are described. Tetraalkylammonium reagents, including long-chain cationic surfactants and shortchain alkylammonium hydroxides, are examined for controlling the electroosmotic flow in order to improve resolution of the cationic enantiomers. In this regard, short-chain tetraalkylammonium cations (such as tetrabutylammonium and tet-ramethylammonium) are more effective. First, the short-chain tetraalkylammonium cations can be used at much higher concentrations than the long-chain cationic surfactants, which form micelles in the few millimolar concentration range. As a result, a better capillary wall coverage is provided with the short-chain reagents, which leads to reduction or reversal of the direction of the electroosmotic flow at the acidic pH 2.5. Second, the short-chain tetraalkylammonium cations are relatively less hydrophobic and less likely to occupy the hydrophobic cavity of/8-CD than the long-chain cationic surfactants, leaving the enan-tioselective interaction sites more available for the analytes. The presence of these tetraalkylammonium cations was essential in many chiral sepa-rations that were reportedly not achieved by using the buffer electrolytes containing only the 8-CD as a chiral selector. In addition, a mechanism of chiral recognition by 8-CD for a group of stere-oisomers is discussed.
