The present invention relates to an enantioselective cation-exchange material, comprising a chiral selector (1), composed of a chiral component (2) and at least one cation-exchange group (X), a spacer (3) and a carrier (4). The cation-exchange material is characterized in that the chiral component (2) has a molecular weight of less than 1,000 and the at least one cation-exchange group (X) is an acid group having a pKa<4.0.
