melly relevant, since cyclopentanic and bicycliccyclopentanic rings are co
mmon structural features of
many i
mportant natural products and new phar
maceuticaldrugs. In general DIMETBCD diluted in SE-54 showedthe best chiral resolution to alcohols
7 and
8 and onlyDIACTBCD showed enantioselectivity to
9. Hydrogenbonds prediction and dipole
mo
ments data were obtainedby
molecular
modeling calculations for
7ab and
8ab andAc and TFA derivatives. Co
mparison of these data withthe chro
matographic para
meters for the related co
mpounds were used to explain the differences of theirelution orders and diastereo- and enantio
meric separations on the above chiral stationary phases (CSPs). Theresults suggest that the CSPs enantioselectivities are notaffected by the carboethoxy-functionalized cyclopentanicand bicyclic cyclopentanic rings the
mselves but
mainlyby the functional group on the other stereogenic center.
