Since enantiomers have identical physical and chemical properties except for the rotation of the plane of polarized light, chiral separation has been considered as one of the most challenging tasks in chemistry from both an analytical and a preparative viewpoint. Despite still in an early stage of development, chiral sensors represent a most promising alternative to the traditional enantio-separation assays for high-throughput screening. In this work, new quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) chiral sensors incorporated with perfunctionalized -cyclodextrins (-CDs) were developed and their performance was evaluated in the gas and liquid phase, respectively. The mechanisms of chiral discrimination in the gas and liquid phase were also investigated. Seven pairs of mercaptyl-perfunctionalized -CDs were successfully synthesized coded as Ph--CDX [X = S (short thio-linker) & L (long thio-linker)], MP--CDX, CP--CDX, BP--CDX, IP--CDX, MtP--CDX, MdP--CDX. The new perfunctionalized -CDs were immobilized onto gold surface of QCM crystals employing self-assembled technique. The monolayer structures were characterized by surface-sensitive techniques including XPS, in-situ QCM measurement, spectroscopic ellipsometry, and atomic force microscopy. vii Good reproducibility of self-assembled monolayer (SAM) fabrication were achieved by our self-assembly techniques. All L-type SAMs were thicker and possessed higher surface concentration than their S-type counterparts. This suggests that the S-type SAMs were formed in a monolayer structure while the L-type counterparts were arranged in a quasi-two-layer arrangement. The surface concentration of the mercaptyl functionalized -cyclodextrin followed the order Me>Pe>By>Ph>CP>BP>IP>MP>MtP>MdP, which reflected the bulkiness of the group and the effect of steric hindrance. Enhanced chiral discrimination in the gas phase was achieved on most of the QCM sensors in comparison with the reported separation results obtained in GC separation. Among the candidates, MP--CD arrays performed the best. The results were discussed on the basis of gas phase host-guest interactions. Generally, L-type sensors were found to exhibit better chiral discrimination ability than their S-type counterparts. Effective cooperative weak interactions, which depend on the molecular structures of the -CDs and analytes (lock and key principle and extensive three-point rule), are mainly responsible for improved chiral discrimination. The ability to determine compositions of the enantiomers in a mixture was also demonstrated by the limonene/MP--CDS system. The fourteen QCM sensors also showed chiral discrimination towards four pairs of enantiomeric analytes in the liquid phase under a new dynamic environment. This dynamic mode, which is similar to the operation environment found in HPLC, not only achieved the same level of chiral discrimination as found in the static mode designed viii [113] E. Melles, H.
