The cellulases CBH 58 from the fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium and CBH I from the fungus Trichoderma reesei were compared as chiral selectors in capillary electrophoresis (CE) applying the partial filling technique. Amines, e.g., norephedrine, two bambuterol analogs, as well as acids, e.g., di-p-toluoyl tartaric acid and dibenzoyl tartaric acid, which could not be enantioseparated in the liquid chromatographic use of the selectors, could be separated in the corresponding CE experiments. Due to the very high enantioselectivities, terbutaline, alprenolol and propranolol could be completely enantioresolved with selector plugs shorter than the sample plugs. The affinity of propranolol to CBH 58 was so high at pH 7.0 that neither of the enantiomers reached the detector; therefore, a plug of the displacing disaccharide cellobiose was injected after the sample to elute the propranolol enantiomers. The enantiomers could also be made to leave the capillary at opposite ends, thereby causing an infinite enantioresolution. A new preconcentration technique was introduced, which takes advantage of the very high affinity of propranolol to CBH 58 and the eluting ability of cellobiose. A 12.5 cm long plug of rac-propranolol could be preconcentrated and enantioseparated in a single procedure.
