Popis: | Peptoids are peptide regioisomers with attractive structural tunability in terms of sequence and three-dimensional arrangement. Peptoids are foreseen to have a great potential for many diverse applications, including their utilization as a chiral stationary phase in chromatography. To achieve chiral recognition, a chiral side chain is required to allow specific interactions with a given enantiomer from a racemic mixture. One of the most studied chiral stationary phases, built with (S)-N-1-phenylethyl (Nspe) units, was shown to be successful in resolving racemic mixtures of binaphthyl derivatives. However, there is currently no description at the atomic scale of the factors favoring its enantioselectivity. Here, we take advantage of steered molecular dynamics simulations to mimic the elution process at the atomic scale and present evidence that the predominantly right-handed helical conformation of Nspe peptoids and their ability to form stronger hydrogen bonds with the (S) enantiomer are responsible for the chiral recognition of the popular chiral probe 2,2′-bihydroxy-1,1′-binaphthyl. |
