---The enantioselectivity of three batches of octakis-(2,3,6-tri-O-ethyl)-γ-cyclodextrin (TEG-CD), which differed significantly in their degree of ethylation, is reported for toxaphene congeners. The cyclodextrin composition was determined by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Columns prepared with almost fully ethylated cyclodextrin showed no enantiomer separation. Increasing the average number of free OH groups up to an optimum of 3.8 allowed to resolve the following toxaphene congeners into enantiomers: Parlar no. 11, 12, 15, 21, 25, 32, 38, 42.1, 42.2, 50, 51, 56, 58, 59, 62, 69 as well as B8-1412. More free OH groups did not improve the enantiomer resolution. The structure of the polysiloxane used for dilution of TEG-CD also had an influence on the enantiomer separations achieved. Compared to OV 1701-OH, the use of PS 086 significantly improved the enantiomer resolutions of the separated congeners. However, neither increasing the column length nor the cyclodextrin amount in the stationary phase led to better separation results.
