Abstract
The combination of a circular dichroism detector and nonchiral liquid chromatography was used for the chiral analysis of unresolved enantiomers to determine the enantioselectivity of a molybdenum‐catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction. The CD/UV peak area ratio of the unresolved enantiomers was calculated and compared with that of a reference standard to determine the enantiomeric purity. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) is 20 ng for the chiral ligand and 1 μg for the branched chiral product. The viability of the system depends on the limit of quantitation of the CD response and the linearity range of the CD and UV response. Chirality 14:659–664, 2002. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
