General description

(+)-1-(9-Fluorenyl)ethyl chloroformate [(+)-FLEC] is a chiral derivatizing reagent. It helps in separating enantiomers of α-amino acids, as well as helps in determining its optical purity using HPLC method.

Application

(+)-FLEC may be used in enantioselective analysis of glufosinate using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography system coupled with a fluorescence detection system.

Physical form

solution, 5 mg in 1 mL acetone

Other Notes

Chiral derivatizing agent for primary and secondary amino acids and amines. The derivatives are separated by reversed-phase LC with fluorescence detection for determining the enantiomeric purity

An indirect enantioseparation method for robust and precise determination of D-Carnitine (D-C) in L-Carnitine (L-C) in the range of 0.1-1.0% is presented. The method is based on derivatization of Carnitine with (+)-[1-(9-fluorenyl)-ethyl]-chloroformate ((+)-FLEC). The two diastereomers are subsequently separated of

In the liquid chromatographic analysis of pharmaceuticals, two challenges are often encountered: detectivity and chiral separations. Propranolol, a beta adrenergic blocker, is a pharmaceutical compound that faces both of these limitations. In this study, both limitations are overcome simultaneously using

A method to measure total hydroxyproline in human urine was developed. Primary amino acids were derivatized with ortho-phthaldialdehyde, followed by derivatization of imino acids with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate. The fluorescent 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate derivatives were separated by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography.
