Application of chiral chromatography for enantiomeric separation of currently used pesticides from various chemical groups
Abstract
Chiral pesticides account for more than 25 % of currently used pesticides and this ratio is still increasing. According to the number of chiral centers in the structure, a pesticide may consist of two or multiple enantiomers or stereoisomers. Studies into the stereoselective behaviour of pesticides started in the early 1990s and most research efforts focused on understanding the environmental fate and effects of these pesticides. Results from such studies have shown that enantiomers of the same chiral compound can degrade at significantly different rates and have very different toxicological characteristics in the environment.To evaluate the real environmental toxicity of chiral pesticides, develop an understanding of their chiral discrimination in biological processes and to assess the enantiopurity of commercial pesticide formulations, analytical separation methods of high stereoselectivity are required. The analytical study of the enantioselective chromatographic separation of several chiral pesticides, currently of high importance and with different structures are presented. This research work was supported by the system projects: "InnoDoktorant - Scholarships for PhD students, IVth edition" and "The development of interdisciplinary doctoral studies at the Gdansk University ofTechnology in modern technologies". Projects are co-financed by the European Union in the frame of the European Social Fund.
