Abstract

Using enantioselective multidimensional gas chromatography with heptakis[2,3-di- O -acetyl-6- O -( tert -butyldimethylsilyl)]-β-cyclodextrin as the chiral stationary phase, the simultaneous analysis of the 3-butylphthalide enantiomers and all eight 3-butylhexahydrophthalide stereoisomers was achieved. Enantiomeric distributions of compounds in celery, celeriac, celery seed, and fennel extracts were elucidated. Keywords: Enantioselective multidimensional gas chromatography (enantio-MDGC); 3-butyl(hexahydro)phthalide stereoisomers; celery; celeriac; fennel
