SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The enantiomeric purity of carnitine may be determined without any derivatisation of the molecule. Preparations of aqueous mixtures containing stereochemically pure L-malic acid, carnitine and europium trichloride lead to the formation of a complex in which the trimethylammonium groups of D- and L-carnitine are diastereotopic. The resolution is observed only when strict experimental conditions are maintained.
