Basic concept of ChirBase
CHIRBASE is a molecular oriented factual database. The concept utilised in this database approach is related to the importance of molecular interactions in chiral recognition mechanisms.
For a solute to bind to a Chiral Stationary Phase (CSP), it must have functional groups complementary to specific binding regions on the receptor. It follows that any application in this field of chiral discrimination shall be molecularly oriented.
Chemical information system permits the recognition of the molecular key fingerprints given by the new compound amongst thousands of fingerprints of known compounds available in a database.
a CSP can be selected from a database search of sample molecular structure.
