J Am Chem Soc. 2011 Aug 10;133(31):11892-5. doi: 10.1021/ja2044453. Epub 2011 Jul 20.

Abstract

Chiral metal-organic framework coated open tubular columns are used in the high-resolution gas chromatographic separation of chiral compounds. The columns have excellent selectivity and also possess good recognition ability toward a wide range of organic compounds such as alkanes, alcohols, and isomers.
