Abstract
The importance of chiral amino acids (AAs) in living organisms has been widely recognized since the discovery of endogenous d-AAs as potential biomarkers in several metabolic disorders. Chiral analysis by ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) has the advantages of high speed and sensitivity but is still in its infancy. Here, an N α-(2,4-dinitro-5-fluorophenyl)-l-alaninamide (FDAA) derivatization is combined with trapped ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (TIMS-MS) for chiral AA analysis. For the first time, we demonstrate the simultaneous separation of 19 pairs of chiral proteinogenic AAs in a single fixed condition TIMS-MS run. The utility of this approach is presented for mouse brain extracts by direct-infusion TIMS-MS. The robust separation ability in complex biological samples was proven in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) TIMS mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) as well by directly depositing 19 pairs of chiral AAs on a tissue slide following on-tissue derivatization. In addition, endogenous chiral amino acids were also detected and distinguished. The developed methods show compelling application prospects in biomarker discovery and biological research.

Abstract
Acyclic saturated hydrocarbon enantiomers were resolved by gas chromatography using a β-cyclodextrin-based chiral stationary phase. The stereospecific synthesis of single enantiomers of 4-methyloctane allowed to assign the absolute stereochemical configuration to the resolved enantiomers. Data show that the (S)-4-methyloctane shows higher chromatographic retention as compared to the (R)-4-methyloctane due to stronger van der Waals interactions with the β-cyclodextrin chiral selector. This introductive research presents future prospects for the separation of stereoisomers of larger branched hydrocarbons. We discuss the importance of chiral hydrocarbons, more precisely the stereochemistry of the isoprenoid alkanes pristane and phytane, as potential biosignatures stable on geological timescales. The origins of pristane and phytane in Earth sediments are presented, and we detail the implications for the search of extinct or extant life on Mars. The data presented here will help to systematically investigate the chirality of hydrocarbon enantiomers in biological and nonbiological samples and in samples to be analyzed by the ESA’s ExoMars rover to trace the chiral precursors of life in 2023.

Abstract
Chiral differentiation of four enantiomeric pairs of beta-amino acids, cis-(1R,2S)-, cis-(1S,2R)-, trans-(1R,2R)-, and trans-(1S,2S)-2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acids (cyclopentane beta-amino acids), and cis-(1R,2S)-, cis-(1S,2R)-, trans-(1R,2R)-, and trans-(1S,2S)-2-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acids (cyclohexane beta-amino acids) was performed successfully by using host-guest complexes and ion/molecule reactions. The experiments were conducted by using electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. The effect of a chiral host molecule was tested by using three different host compounds; (+)-(18-Crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid, (-)-(18-Crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid, and beta-cyclodextrin. This is the first time that small enantiomeric pairs with two chiral centers have been differentiated using ion/molecule reactions and host-guest complexes.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry has expanded dramatically in recent years both in terms of potential applications and in its relevance to analogous biological systems. The formation and function of supramolecular complexes occur through a multiplicity of often difficult to differentiate noncovalent forces. The aim of this Review is to describe the crucial interaction mechanisms in context, and thus classify the entire subject. In most cases, organic host-guest complexes have been selected as examples, but biologically relevant problems are also considered. An understanding and quantification of intermolecular interactions is of importance both for the rational planning of new supramolecular systems, including intelligent materials, as well as for developing new biologically active agents.

Abstract
Acetylated/silylated maltooligosaccharides with different degrees of oligomerization have been tested as chiral stationary phases for enantioselective gas chromatography. The acyclic dextrin derivatives carrying tert-butyldimethylsilyl groups at the primary hydroxyl sites and acetyl groups at the secondary hydroxyl sites showed an unexpected ability for the enantioseparation of alpha-amino acid derivatives and halogenated compounds, in addition to some underivatized chiral compounds. Some examples of an improved enantioselectivity invoked by the linear CSPs as compared to that of cyclic oligosaccharides are demonstrated in this work. The results highlight the role of the polar external surface of the selector in lieu of the well-established inclusion mechanism of enantiorecognition by cyclic dextrins. Thus, the enantioseparation of chiral compounds on linear dextrin derivatives--devoid of a molecular cavity--sheds a new light on the mechanisms of enantiorecognition by cyclodextrin derivatives. In contrast to cyclodextrins, linear dextrins are readily accessible in both enantiomeric forms.

Abstract
Whereas the determination of high enantiomeric fractions (EF) of chiral compounds is very well established, the accurate determination of small deviations from racemic compositions has not yet received much attention despite its relevance to studies dealing with the origin of homochirality, where only small initial enantiomeric bias is expected. Racemic samples of representative alpha-amino acids were derivatized as N-(O,S)-trifluoroacetyl/ethylesters and analyzed by enantioselective gas chromatography (GC) on fused silica capillaries coated with the chiral stationary phases (CSPs) Chirasil-D-Val, Chirasil-L-Val, and Lipodex E with GC/FID and GC/MS detection. The validation (accuracy and precision) of the determination of the enantiomeric fraction EF of the D-enantiomer in racemic or near-racemic compositions for 10 DL-alpha-amino acids obtained from commercial sources has been carried out. Emphasis is given to DL-tyrosine, the enantiomers of which have recently been claimed to show different crystallization properties. Values of EF obtained from GC measurements using CSPs were compared with those from CE using chiral mobile phase additives. While the precision of the GC method is generally better than 0.08% for all DL-alpha-amino acids studied, accuracy (trueness) of determination of amino acids with polar side chains is poorer than expected from the precision as a result of systematic errors. The accuracy determined relied on measurements on two oppositely configurated CSPs.

Abstract
The solvent versatility of Chiralpak IA, a new chiral stationary phase (CSP) containing amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarabamate) immobilized onto silica gel, is investigated for the enantioselective separation of a set of cyclopropane derivatives using ethyl acetate or dichloromethane (DCM) as non-standard mobile phase eluent and diluent, respectively in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A comparison of the separation of cyclopropanes on both immobilized and coated amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phases (Chiralpak IA and Chiralpak AD, respectively) in HPLC using a mixture of n-hexane/2-propanol (90/10 and 99/1, v/v) as mobile phase with a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min and UV detection at 254 nm, is demonstrated. The optimized method of separation is used for an online HPLC monitoring for the Rh(II)-catalyzed asymmetric intermolecular cyclopropanations in dichloromethane. Direct analysis techniques without further purification, workup or removal of dichloromethane were summarized. The method provides an easy and direct determination of the enantiomeric excess of the cyclopropanes and selectivity of the catalyst used without any further work up.
