Custom Separations
The Custom Separation Services of CHIRAL TECHNOLOGIES has been in operation for many years and is well established and well known. We offer separation services on a preparative scale in HPLC, SFC, and SMB modes.
Complete confidentiality
  • Establishing a confidentiality agreement allows us to share information while preserving the intellectual property of our customer and that of CHIRAL TECHNOLOGIES and Daicel.
  • A project starts by gathering information about the product, its properties (structure, solubility, safety, what separations have already been tried) and about the needs (quantity, time scale, final product specification).
Product screening
  • Starting with a small quantity of racemate (~200 mg) we carry out a free screening on the product for separation using the preparative scale CSPs available to us.
  • The screen, carried out using both HPLC and SFC, usually results in a promising separation which is then optimized to give the best preparative separation method.
Loading study
  • Once the separation is optimized, we carry out a loading study to determine the production rate possible for the range of techniques available, and to isolate a small quantity of one or both enantiomers for stability testing.
  • With all the information in hand, we then prepare a quotation for the quantity of product required. Once this is approved and the order is placed, we commence the project, returning the purified enantiomers within the agreed time frame.
Analysis completion
  • The final products are returned to you accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis. For all cGMP projects, CHIRAL TECHNOLOGIES adheres to the ICH Q7A, paragraph 19 guidelines.
