34. The enantiomeric excess (ee) was measured by HPLC analysis that was carried out using a Waters 510 HPLC system. A Chiracel OD packed in a SS column of 4.6 mm i.d. × 250 m was used. Isocratic elution was applied with a mobile phase consisting of n-hexane 90% and isopropanol 10% at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min and a pressure of 125 psi. UV detection at 243 nm.
