Biermanns et al. reported the chiral resolution of /3-blockers, including propranolol, metoprolol, and atenolol using packed-column supercritical fluid chromatography [38]. A Chiracel OD column with a mobile phase of 30% methanol with 0.5% isopropylamine in carbon dioxide was used for the separation. A baseline separation of isomers was obtained in less than 5 min at a mobile-phase flow rate of 2 ml/min. While keeping the column outlet pressure constant, the flow rate was increased to 4 ml/min and it was noted that, although the retention was reduced, the resolution remained the same. Both R- and S-propranolol gave linear responses from 0.25-2500 ppm with a correlation coefficient of >0.9999. The detection limit was approximately 250 ppb for a S/N ratio of 3. The reproducibility for both R- and S-propranolol was less than 1.5%. It was also noted that 0.09% R-propranolol can be quantitated in the presence of 2500 ppm of S-Propranolol.

Enantioselective separation by supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has been a field of great progress since the first demonstration of a chiral separation by SFC in the 1980s. The unique properties of supercritical fluids make packed column SFC the most favorable choice for fast enantiomeric separation among all of the separation techniques. In this chapter, the effect of chiral stationary phases, modifiers, and additives on enantioseparation are discussed in terms of speed and resolution in SFC. Fundamental considerations and thermodynamic aspects are also presented. 

The enantiomeric purity is determined by chiral stationary phase, supercritical fluid chromatographic (CSP-SFC) analysis (Berger Instruments, Daicel Co. CHIRALCEL OD column 4% methanol, 180 psi, 3.0 mUmin flow rate detection at 220 nm). Racemic 1-phenylpropanol exhibited base-line separation of peaks of equal intensity arising from the R-isomer (tp, 2.74 min) and the S-isomer (tp, 3.10 min) whereas the synthetic alcohol showed these peaks in the ratio 97.7 / 2.3. This chromatographic method allowed for identification of the trace contaminants propiophenone (tp, 1.63 min) and benzyl alcohol (tp 3.40 min). 

In addition to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), the chiral resolution using CMPAs was also carried out by supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) [91] and capillary electrochromatography (CEC) [92-98]. Salvador et al. [91] used dimethylated /1-cyclodextrin as the mobile phase additive on porous graphite carbon as the solid phase for the chiral resolution of tofizopam, warfarin, a benzoxazine derivative, lorazepam, flurbiprofen, temazepam, chlorthalidone, and methyl phehydantoin by SFC. The authors also studied the effect of the concentration of dimethylated /1-cyclodextrin, the concentration of the mobile phase, the nature of polar modifiers, outlet pressure, and the column temperature on the chiral resolution.

In addition to normal- and reversed-phase chromatography, silver ion HPLC, RP ion-pair HPLC, chiral separation, and supercritical fluid chromatography have been used for analysis of lipids [3]. In silver-ion HPLC, the counterion of an ion-exchange column such as sulfonate is exchanged with silver ions. Only the degree of unsaturation in the lipid molecule determines retention. In RP ion-pair HPLC, different ion-pairing agents, such...
