Summary

Resolution of enantiomeric mixtures of DL-amino acids (Nine) using silica gel layers impregnated with (-)-bruncine is reported. The solvent system used was Butanol: Acetic acid: Chloroform (3∶1∶4). The diastereomers were formed and hydrolysed, by dilute HCl spray, on the chromatogram only and the amino acids thus resolved were located by ninhydrin spray. The cross resolution possibilities of enantiomers were also calculated.
