Abstract
With the widespread application of mixed-mode chromatography in separation analysis, it is becoming increasingly important to study its retention mechanism. The retention behavior of acidic compounds on mixed-mode octyl-quaternary ammonium (Sil-C8-QA) columns was investigated by computer simulation. Firstly, the benzoic acid homologues were used as the analytes, and the simulation model was constructed by the Materials Studio. Geometric optimization, annealing and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of these complexes resulted in optimized conformations. The binding energy, mean square displacement (MSD) and torsion angle distribution generated by MD simulation were then analyzed. The results showed that the more negative binding energy, the greater the MSD and the narrower the torsion angle distribution, indicating that the stationary phase behaves with stronger interaction and retention. The retention behavior of five acidic drugs on the Sil-C8-QA column was then successfully explained by simulation. Acidic drugs are more retentive on the mixed-mode column due to the more substantial interaction brought by the reversed-phase/ion-exchange mixed-mode mechanism compared to other single-mode columns. This simulation method is expected to provide ideas for studying the separation mechanism and predicting the retention behavior of more complex samples.

Abstract
The stereospecific analysis of chiral molecules is an important issue in many scientific fields. In separation sciences, this is achieved via the formation of transient diastereomeric complexes between a chiral selector and the selectand enantiomers driven by molecular interactions including electrostatic, ion-dipole, dipole-dipole, van der Waals or π-π interactions as well as hydrogen or halogen bonds depending on the nature of selector and selectand. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and molecular modeling methods are currently the most frequently applied techniques to understand the selector-selectand interactions at a molecular level and to draw conclusions on the chiral separation mechanism. The present short review summarizes some of the recent achievements for the understanding of the chiral recognition of the most important chiral selectors combining separation techniques with molecular modeling and/or spectroscopic techniques dating between 2020 and early 2024. The selectors include polysaccharide derivatives, cyclodextrins, macrocyclic glycopeptides, proteins, donor-acceptor type selectors, ion-exchangers, crown ethers, and molecular micelles. The application of chiral ionic liquids and chiral deep eutectic solvents, as well as further selectors, are also briefly addressed. A compilation of all published literature on chiral selectors has not been attempted.

Abstract
Enantioseparation by the electromigration-based method is well-established and widely discussed in the literature. Electrophoretic strategies have been used to baseline resolve complex enantiomeric mixtures, typically using a selector substance into the background electrolyte (BGE) from capillaries to microchips. Along with developing new materials/substances for enantioseparations, it is the concern about the green analytical chemistry (GAC) principles for method development and application. This review article brings a last decade's update on the publications involving enantioseparation by electrophoresis for capillary and microchip systems. It also brings a critical discussion on GAC principles and new green metrics in the context of developing an enantioseparation method. Chemical and green features of native and modified cyclodextrins are discussed. Still, given the employment of greener substances, ionic liquids and deep-eutectic solvents are highlighted, and some new selectors are proposed. For all the mentioned selectors, green features about their production, application, and disposal are considered. Sample preparation and BGE composition in GAC perspective, as well as greener derivatization possibilities, were also addressed. Therefore, one of the goals of this review is to aid the electrophoretic researchers to look where they have not.

Abstract
Chiral covalent organic frameworks (CCOFs) benefit from superior stability, abundant chiral environment, and homogeneous pore configuration. In its constructive tactics, only the post-modification method allows for the integration of supramolecular chiral selectors into achiral COFs. Here, the finding utilizes 6-deoxy-6-mercapto-β-cyclodextrin (SH-β-CD) as chiral subunits and 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzenedicarboxaldehyde (DVA) as the platform molecule to synthesize chiral functional monomers through thiol-ene click reactions and directly establish ternary "pendant-type" SH-β-CD COFs. The chiral site density on SH-β-CD COFs was regulated by changing the proportion of chiral monomers to obtain an optimal construction strategy and remarkably improve the ability of chiral separation. SH-β-CD COFs were coated on the inner wall of the capillary in a covalently bound manner. The prepared open tubular capillary was achieved for the separation of six chiral drugs. By combining the outcomes of selective adsorption and chromatographic separation, we observed the higher density of chiral sites in the CCOFs, and poorer results were achieved. From the perspective of spatial conformational distribution, we interpret the variation in the performance of these chirality-controlled CCOFs for selective adsorption and chiral separation.

Abstract
β-Cyclodextrin covalent organic frameworks (β-CD COFs) show great potential in enantioseparation due to their uniformly distributed chiral recognition sites and good chemical stability. The hydroxyl and amino groups of β-CD COFs enable facile post-modification to introduce the desired functionality into the frameworks. In this study, we perform post-modification of β-CD COFBPDA with 1,4-butane sultone and [(3R,4R)-4-acetyloxy-2,5-dioxooxolan-3-yl] acetate to construct two kinds of novel functional β-CD COFs. The capillary columns prepared with these two functional β-CD COFs separated chiral dihydropyridines and fluoroquinolones with excellent selectivity and repeatability in capillary electrochromatography, while β-CD COFBPDA-modified capillary columns did not present the chiral recognition ability for these drugs. The mechanism of chiral recognition and the enhanced enantioselectivity of functional β-CD COFs were further demonstrated by molecular docking simulation. The divergent chiral separation performances of β-CD COFs suggest that the introduction of functional groups enables the modification of β-CD COF properties and tuning of its chiral recognition abilities for the diversity of enantioseparation.
