Abstract
Retention factors for two enantiomers of trans-stilbene oxide, k1 and k2, were measured with a chiral AD-H column using two syringe pumps to feed CO2 and methanol as a co-solvent at various temperatures, pressures and co-solvent mole fractions to determine the effects of these operating conditions on the retention factors. The retention factors k1 and k2 are for the (R,R)- and (S,S)-forms, respectively. When the isothermal compressibilities of a mixture of CO2 and MeOH were lower than 0.01, far from the critical locus of the CO2 and methanol mixture, both retention factors were well expressed with the solvent density and temperature with an average absolute relative deviation of 1-2%. In the vicinity of the critical locus, however, where the isothermal compressibilities were much larger than 0.01, the relationship between retention factor and density was complicated. Both retention factors were proportional to the isothermal compressibility, irrespective of methanol mole fraction at each temperature.
