Some of the most important results of investigations into the structure of Cu(II) complexes with nitrogen-substituted alpha-amino acids are summarized, and the role of water molecules that are coordinated in two axial positions of these complexes in the mediation of between-ligand interactions is underlined. UV and circular dichroism spectroscopy are shown to be very convenient for studying and quantifying the thermodynamic and kinetic enantioselectivity phenomena in the complex formation. Polystyrene-based chiral ligand exchange resins served as the first highly selective column packing in the development of enantioselective liquid chromatography. These resins were then followed by more efficient silica bonded monomeric and polymeric HPLC phases. The latter proved to be especially stable in aqueous media at elevated temperatures. Finally, chiral coated ligand exchanging RP phases presented the most inexpensive, but highly efficient and selective phases for the resolution of chelate-forming racemic solutes in LC and TLC. The mechanism of chiral resolution on these last phases involves an essential interaction of both the selector and selectand with the achiral hydrophobic surface. The same is valid for chiral resolutions according to chiral mobile phase techniques.

The Jasco CD-995 is the first commercially-available detector specifically designed for the on-line monitoring of circular dichroism (CD) at a fixed wavelength. Predecessors such as the OR-990 from Jasco and other manufacturers use optical rotation as the detection principle. The results demonstrate that where enantiomeric purity is required to be controlled at levels greater than 99% w/w it is unlikely that the use of the CD-995 with achiral HPLC will compare with the sensitivity of enantio-selective HPLC and capillary electrophoresis (CE). In contrast, where the control of enantiomeric purity is required at levels less than 99% w/w good agreement can be achieved between the CD-995 with achiral HPLC and these techniques.

In addition, formation of amino acids with small side chains, such as 2-aminobutyrate, can cause significant isolation problems due to the presence of small amounts of other amino acids, such as alanine. The improvements we have made to the approach are illustrated with 2-aminobutyrate as the example.
