Chiral resolution, also known as enantiomeric resolution, is the process of separating a racemic mixture (a mixture that contains equal amounts of enantiomers) into its individual enantiomers. Enantiomers are molecules that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other, much like left and right hands.
