The aim of this work was finding suitable conditions for separation of enantiomers of citalopram and citadiol, optimization of chromatographic system and validation of the analytical method for determination of selected enantiomers in drugs. Drugs are often chiral compounds. In many cases, only enantiomer has required pharmacological effects. Advanced chemical technologies associated with the synthesis, separation and analysis of the individual enantiomers caused an increase of the number of new chiral drugs in the form of single pure enantiomers, the chiral switch. Citalopram is one of the widely used antidepressants of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). Citalopram is used for treatment of depression, panic anxienty or obsessive compulsive disorder of pathological laughing and crying. The pharmacological activity is associated with the S-citalopram, while R-enantiomer is essentially inactive and even counteracts the activity of escitalopram. Citadiol is a chiral syntetic precursor of citalopram. This thesis was focused on monitoring enantioseparation "behaviour" of selected enantiomers. HPLC method with chiral stationary phases based on macrocyclic antibiotics, cyclofructans and cellulose was applied for enantioseparation of the above-mentioned compounds. The optimized chromatographic...
