Diastereomeric separation of natural glycero derivatives as their 1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl carbamates by high-performance liquid chromatography

Abstract Diastereomeric separations of several natural glycero derivatives as their 1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl carbamates have been performed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The HPLC diasteromeric separations of monoalkyl-, dialkyland diacyl- sn -glycerols are discussed. By this method it was also possible to prepare derivatives and perform enantiomeric analysis in the nanomole range. The expected stuctures of the various samples were established by mass spectrometric studies of HPLC eluates.
