abstract

  • The use of state-of-the-art separation tools from the pharmaceutical industry for addressing intractable separation problems from academic synthetic chemistry is evaluated, showing fast and useful results for the resolution of complex mixtures, separation of closely related components, visualization of difficult to detect compounds and purification of synthetic intermediates. Some recommendations for potential near term deployment of separation tools within academia and the evolution of next generation separation technologies are discussed.
