Direct enantiomer separation of 2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate esters on cyclodextrin derivatives stationary phases in GC

Direct enantiomeric separation of all four optical isomers of 2-phenylcyclopropane carboxylate ester was first achieved on each of the three different beta-cyciodextrin chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in GC. Using these CSPs, enantiomeric excess of the products of enantioselective cyclopropanation can be determined directly, conveniently and fast.

Novel porous metal/ceramic membrane materials

During the past 22 months, the preparation and application of novel porous metal/ceramic membrane materials have been extensively explored in the area of membrane science and catalysis. Thus, new preparation methods and new application concepts in membrane catalysis have been developed.
