Abstract
The separation of enantiomers using chiral membranes has garnered much research interest. In this study, the enantioseparation of amino acids using chiral membranes, namely graphene oxide-ethylenediamine-maltodextrin (GO-EDA-MD) and GO-EDA-hydroxypropyl-MD (GO-EDA-HP-MD), was evaluated. HP-MD and MD were investigated as chiral selectors due to their inherent chirality. Various characterization techniques, including atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, field emission scanning electron microscopy, water contact angle analysis, tensile properties, and thermal gravimetric analysis were employed to analyze the membrane structures. The evaluation of enantioseparation performance was conducted by employing tryptophan, phenylalanine, and tyrosine enantiomers. Optimal conditions for enantiomer separation were achived using a GO-EDA-HP-MD chiral composite (1.75 wt%), a feed concentration of 10 mg/L for each enantiomer, a separation time of 15 min, and a membrane effective surface area of 1.0 cm2. Also, the bovine serum albumin rejection was 90.0 %, and the water flux reached 37.1 L m-2 h-1. The highest enantiomeric excess (ee.%) values were 46.33 %, 76.97 %, and 73.04 % for tryptophan, phenylalanine, and tyrosine, respectively. The impact of voltage on ee.% and substance flux was also explored. This membrane was able to separate enantiomers successfully.

Abstract
Membrane-based enantioselective separation is a promising method for chiral resolution due to its low cost and high efficiency. However, scalable fabrication of chiral separation membranes displaying both high enantioselectivity and high flux of enantiomers is still a challenge. Here, the authors report the preparation of homochiral porous organic cage (Covalent cage 3 (CC3)-R)-based enantioselective thin-film-composite membranes using polyamide (PA) as the matrix, where fully organic and solvent-processable cage crystals have good compatibility with the polymer scaffold. The hierarchical CC3-R channels consist of chiral selective windows and inner cavities, leading to favorable chiral resolution and permeation of enantiomers; the CC3-R/PA composite membranes display an enantiomeric excess of 95.2% for R-(+)-limonene over S-(-)-limonene and a high flux of 99.9 mg h-1 m-2. This work sheds light on the use of homochiral porous organic cages for preparing enantioselective membranes and demonstrates a new route for the development of next-generation chiral separation membranes.

Abstract
The study investigated the influence of additives on the fabrication of mixed matrix membranes comprising polyethersulfone (PES), with a specific focus on hydrophilicity, flux, morphology, and antifouling properties. Carboxymethyl modified β-cyclodextrin (CMβ-CD) was used to enhance the dispersion and hydrophilicity of graphene oxide (GO), leading to the formation of a hydrophilic and stable composite nanoparticle (CMCD@GO). The hydrophilicity (WCA <51.5°) and water flux (32.6 L.m-2.h-1) of the modified PES membranes (MCDGO-x) were improved by the incorporation of CMCD@GO nanoparticles, while that of PES membrane was 79.7° and 10.6 L.m-2.h-1. The rate of backscattered light intensity (ΔBS) of MCDGO-x suspensions remains stable, suggesting stable dispersion of CMCD@GO in organic solvents. Compared to the bare PES membrane, the MCDGO-x membrane exhibits a thinner active layer and a finger-like structure. The MCDGO-x membrane exhibited excellent naphthenic acids (NAs) rejection (> 93.2%) due to reduced roughness and higher hydrophilicity, while the GO-modified PES membrane (MGO-5) exhibited lower NAs rejection (87.2%). Furthermore, the MCDGO-5 membrane showed higher flux recovery ratio (FRR) of 79.3% compared to MGO-5 membrane (68.5%) after three cycles, indicating the antifouling performance of MCDGO-x for NAs was significantly improved. The combination of CMβ-CD and GO enhance the flux and antifouling properties of PES ultrafiltration membranes, suggesting significant potential for applications in the purification of oil sands process water and the treatment of oily wastewater.

Abstract
The separation of chiral drugs continues to pose a significant challenge. However, in recent years, the emergence of membrane-based chiral separation has shown promising effectiveness due to its environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, and cost-effective characteristics. In this study, we prepared chiral composite membrane via interfacial polymerization (IP), utilizing β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and piperazine (PIP) as mixed monomers in the aqueous phase. The chiral separation process was facilitated by β-CD, serving as a chiral selective agent. The resulting membrane were characterized using SEM, FT-IR, and XPS. Subsequently, the chiral separation performance of the membrane for DL-tryptophan (Trp) was investigated. Lastly, the water flux, dye rejection, and stability of the membrane were also examined. The results showed that the optimized chiral PIP0.5β-CD0.5 membrane achieved an enantiomeric excess percentage (ee%) of 43.0% for D-Trp, with a solute flux of 66.18 nmol·cm-2·h-1, and maintained a good chiral separation stability. Additionally, the membrane demonstrated positive performance in the selective separation of mixed dyes, allowing for steady operation over a long period of time. This study offers fresh insights into membrane-based chiral separations.

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
Herein, a novel strategy was implemented to modulate the supramolecular interaction between enantiomers and chiral recognition sites (CRSs), effectively resolving the issue of CRS saturation. Randomly methylated-β-cyclodextrin (Rm-β-CD) was used as the CRS (host molecule), and polymerized ionic liquids [poly([vbim]TFSI)] were used as the supramolecular modulator (guest molecule), which self-assembled to generate thermosensitive supramolecular host/guest complexes. The enantiomeric binding capacity and enantioselectivity of chiral separation systems centered on supramolecular host-guest complexes are characterized by a high degree of temperature dependence. Poly([vbim]TFSI) bonded to Rm-β-CD at temperatures between 17 °C ± 3 and 50 °C ± 3 °C, and the binding free energy difference (|ΔΔG|) between the (S)- and (R)-enantiomer was 0.55. Conversely, poly([vbim]TFSI detached from Rm-β-CD at temperatures >50 °C ± 3 °C or <17 °C ± 3 °C, and |ΔΔG| between (S)- and (R)-enantiomer was 0.03. The |ΔΔG| value of the (R)-enantiomer can reach 0.86 in two temperature intervals. Therefore, the binding of poly([vbim]TFSI) to Rm-β-CD afforded the favorable separation of four racemic sample mixtures: mandelic acid (e.e.% = 61.3%), ibuprofen (e.e.% = 21.6%), warfarin (e.e.% = 14.9%), and naproxen (e.e% = 18.2%). The detachment of poly([vbim]TFSI) from Rm-β-CD released the enantiomer bound to CRSs. The decomplexation of mandelic acid reached 75.1%.

Abstract
A porous noncovalent organic framework with AIE effect is designed and synthesized as the support for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The framework is fabricated through the electrostatic complexation between carboxymethyl cellulose and tetraphenylethene-containing ammonium surfactant, which can complex AuNPs via the noncovalent interactions to offer a heterogeneous catalyst. Compared to the covalent modification on cellulose, this noncovalent framework gains superiorities in the catalyst synthesis and the size control of AuNPs. The AIE property and water-insolubility allow such heterogeneous catalysts to be easily detected, separated, and recycled, opening a new pathway for the reduction of nitrobenzene compounds and some dye compounds in aqueous conditions, which present the features of green chemistry. The use of cellulose for developing new heterogeneous metal catalysts, especially in a noncovalent way, would promote the value-added utilization of cellulose. This work provides a design strategy for gaining heterogeneous metal catalysts by taking advantage of natural bioresources.

Abstract
Cyclodextrin (CD) and its derivatives are receiving attention as a new-generation adsorbent for water pollution treatment due to their external hydrophilic and internal hydrophobic properties. Among types of CD, β-Cyclodextrin (βCD) has been a material of choice with a proven track record for a range of utilities in distinct domains, owing to its unique cage-like structural conformations and inclusion complex-forming ability, especially to mitigate emerging contaminants (ECs). This article outlines βCD composites in developing approaches of their melds and composites for purposes such as membranes for removal of the ECs in aqueous setups have been explored with emphasis on recent trends. Electrospinning has bestowed an entirely different viewpoint on polymeric materials, comprising βCD, in the framework of diverse functions across a multitude of niches. Besides, this article especially discusses βCD polymer composite membrane-based removal of contaminants such as pharmaceutical substances, endocrine disruptors chemicals, and dyes. Finally, in this article, the challenges and future directions of βCD-based adsorbents are discussed, which may shed light on pragmatic commercial applications of βCD polymer composite membranes.

Abstract
Homochiral metal-organic frameworks (HMOFs) have been widely investigated in the application of enantiomeric separation. Nonetheless, it remains a significant challenge to explore the effect of multiple weak interactions between HMOF adsorbents and chiral adsorbates on enantiomeric separation performance still. In this work, robust chiral amine-alcohol-functionalized UiO-68-typed Zr-HMOFs 1-3 with the same hydrogen-bonding sites but slightly different π-binding sites were prepared for the enantioseparation of amino acid derivatives (Fmoc-AAs) with large π-binding groups. As a consequence of multiple host-guest interactions, these Zr-HMOFs exhibit speedy adsorption and high adsorption capacity for Fmoc-L/D-AAs and dissimilar enantioselectivity for the adsorption of their enantiomers. Materials 1 and 2 exhibit excellent enantioselective separation performance for Fmoc-valine with a single terminal π-binding group, while material 3 displays excellent enantioselective separation performance for Fmoc-phenylalanine and Fmoc-tryptophan with π-binding groups at both ends. As evidently demonstrated by our experimental and density functional theory (DFT) computational results, when the number of π-binding groups preset in the confined chiral space of adsorbents matches the number of π-binding groups of chiral adsorbates, the synergism of π-π or σ-π interactions will increase enantioselectivity; otherwise, the competition interactions from redundant identical binding sites will weaken enantioselectivity. Our case not only provides a tremendously typical system for investigating the collaborative discrimination of multiple weak interactions and exploring the impact of relatively excessive binding sites of HMOF adsorbents or chiral adsorbates on the enantioselective separation performance but also provides guidance for targeted functional modifications of high-performance chiral porous materials.

Abstract
Macrocycles with well-defined cavities and the ability to undergo supramolecular interactions are classical materials that have played an essential role in materials science. However, one of the most substantial barriers limiting the utilization of macrocycles is their aggregation, which blocks the active regions. Among many attempted strategies to prevent such aggregation, installing macrocycles into covalent organic frameworks (COFs), which are porous and stable reticular networks, has emerged as an ideal solution. The resulting macrocycle-based COFs (M-COFs) preserve the macrocycles' unique activities, enabling applications in various fields such as single-atom catalysis, adsorption/separation, optoelectronics, phototherapy, and structural design of forming single-layered or mechanically interlocked COFs. The resulting properties are unmatchable by any combination of macrocycles with other substrates, opening a new chapter in advanced materials. This review focuses on the latest progress in the concepts, synthesis, properties, and applications of M-COFs, and presents an in-depth outlook on the challenges and opportunities in this emerging field.

[PMID: 35870277 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2022.463341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Revised: 07/02/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Chiral compounds have similar structures and properties, but their pharmacological action is very different or even opposite. Therefore, the separation of chiral compounds has great significance in pharmaceutical and agriculture. Porous organic materials are novel crystalline porous materials, which possess high surface area, controllable pore size, and favorable functionalization. Therefore, porous organic materials are considered to be an ideal material for chiral separation. In this review, we summarized the progress of chiral porous organic materials for chiral separation in recent years. Furthermore, the applications of chiral porous organic materials as chiral separation medias (chromatography stationary phases and membrane materials) in enantioseparation were highlighted. Finally, the remaining challenges and future directions for porous organic materials in chiral separation were also briefly outlined further to promote the development of porous organic materials in chiral separation.
