Abstract
-tryptophan. The membrane exhibits exceptional enantioselectivity towards amino acids (ee value: 99.38%) through synergistic effects of hydrogen bonding and spatial hindrance. This strategy demonstrates the potential of amino acid-based chiral centers for high-performance separation membranes.
