A silica‐based chiral stationary phase (CSP) derived from L‐α‐norleucinyl‐ and pyrrolidinyl‐disubstituted cyanuric chloride was prepared for the enantioseparation of methyl esters of N‐(3,5‐dinitrobenzoyl) amino acids by high‐performance liquid chromatography. The chromatographic results show that effective enantioseparation of methyl esters of N‐(3,5‐dinitrobenzoyl)amino acids, except for proline, was achieved on this chiral stationary phase. The chromatographic resolution of racemic n‐propyl ester of N‐(3,5‐dinitrobenzoyl)valine on CSP‐B is better than that of racemic methyl ester of N‐(3,5‐dinitrobenzoyl)valine on CSP‐B or CSP‐A reported previously ( J. Chromatogr. A , 676 (1994) 303). The comparison of the chromatographic results obtained in this study with those on CSP‐A reported previously reveals that steric effect, instead of hydrophobic interaction, between the n‐butyl group attached to the chiral center of the chiral selector and the alkyl group attached to the chiral center of the chiral selectand plays a significant role in chiral discrimination. The increase in the selectivity factor of methyl esters of N‐(3,5‐dinitrobenzoyl)amino acids with bulky alkyl groups was examined on CSP‐B.
