Effect of solvent composition on chiral recognition ability of molecularly imprinted DIDE derivatives
Abstract
In the present study, molecularly imprinted materials from the tetrapeptide derivative, H–Asp(OcHex)–Ile–Asp(OcHex)–Glu(OBzl)–CH2–, were adopted as samples to study the effect of the polarity of the environment on the chiral (molecular) recognition ability. The optimum composition, with the best chiral recognition, is a 50 vol% aqueous ethanol solution.
