A number of different silica gels and binders were evaluated in the development of a ..beta..-cyclodextrin bonded TLC phase with the capability to separate enantiomeric compounds. Planar chromatographic conditions were optimized for the separation of nine racemic mixtures, three diastereomeric mixtures, and six structural isomers. Mobile phases and elution behavior of all solutes were analogous to the related LC technique indicating the two methods are sufficiently compatible to be used in conjuction with one another. This should provide one with much greater flexibility in the field of isomeric separations. 12 references, 2 figures, 2 tables.
