A novel chiral separation process, which utilizes a combination of enantioselective inclusion complexation (EIC) and organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN), was developed. Although EIC is an attractive way to resolve racemates, the difficulties associated with enantiomer recovery and chiral host recy...
