ENANTIOMER PURIFICATION THROUGH ACHIRAL CHROMATOGRAPHY: INTEGRATING SIMULATED MOVING BED AND SELF-DISPROPORTIONATION OF ENANTIOMERS

Enantiomer purification is a critical process in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and food industries, where chiral compounds often exhibit distinct biological activities. Traditional chiral chromatography is effective but costly due to the use of expensive chiral stationary phases. This review art...
