Enantioseparations of liquid crystalline materials

(EN) Liquid crystalline materials are an important domain of the material science. Chiral liquid crystals (CLCs) are researched for their unique chirality-derived properties. The development of new CLCs focuses both on appropriate molecular design to fit their intended purpose and also on ways of using widely available and less expensive sources of chirality to enable cost- effective production for a potential large-scale production. Methods capable of enantioseparation are needed mainly for chiral purity control of newly synthesized CLCs and for their potential use in scaling up for preparative purpose. Nowadays, enantioselective chromatography has evolved to be the method of choice for enantioseparations. This thesis aims to establish new approaches to chromatographic enantioseparations of CLCs by developing fast and robust enantioselective methods using two different ultra-high performance chromatographic techniques - sub/supercritical fluid chromatography (UHPSFC) and liquid chromatography (UHPLC). UHPSFC is introduced and successfully employed for the first time for this purpose. For some CLCs, high values of enantioselectivity and enantioresolution were achieved, opening the possibility of scaling up to semipreparative use. In UHPLC, two modes (reversed-phase and polar organic solvent mode)...
