Enantioseparations on amylose tris(5-chloro-2-methylphenylcarbamate) in nano-liquid chromatography and capillary electrochromatography

Amylose tris(5-chloro-2-methylphenylcarbamate) was coated onto native and aminopropylsilanized silica in order to prepare chiral stationary phases (CSP) for enantioseparations using nano-liquid chromatography (nano-LC) and capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The effect of the nature of silica, the particle size and pore diameter, the chiral selector loading onto silica, the mobile phase composition and pH, as well as separation variables such as a linear flow rate of the mobile phase, applied voltage in CEC, etc. on the separation of enantiomers was studied. It was found that CSPs based on amylose tris(5-chloro-2-methylphenylcarbamate) can be used for preparation of stable capillary columns for enantioseparations by nano-LC and CEC in combination with polar organic and aqueous–organic mobile phases. Higher peak efficiency was observed in CEC than in nano-LC.

Capillary electrochromatographic separation of enantiomers under aqueous mobile phases on a covalently bonded cellulose derivative chiral stationary phase

A chemically bonded cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phase (CSP) was prepared by a radical polymerization reaction. The prepared CSP was packed into fused-silica capillaries with inner diameter of 75 microm to perform enantiomer separations in CEC. The electrochromatographic behavior of the CSP was investigated. On the prepared CSP, high EOF could be generated under acidic mobile phases, which represented an advantage for the separation of acidic enantiomers. Several neutral, acidic, and basic enantiomers were resolved on the prepared CSP under aqueous mobile phases. The column efficiencies were between 20,000 and 100,000 plates/m, which were much higher than those of HPLC. In addition, it was observed that the separation of some enantiomers benefited from the adoption of THF as mobile phase modifier.     

Enantioselective simultaneous analysis of selected pharmaceuticals in environmental samples by ultrahigh performance supercritical fluid based chromatography tandem mass spectrometry

In order to assess the true impact of each single enantiomer of pharmacologically active compounds (PACs) in the environment, highly efficient, fast and sensitive analytical methods are needed. For the first time this paper focuses on the use of ultrahigh performance supercritical fluid based chromatography coupled to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer to develop multi-residue enantioselective methods for chiral PACs in environmental matrices. This technique exploits the advantages of supercritical fluid chromatography, ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Two coated modified 2.5 μm-polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases were investigated: an amylose tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate column and a cellulose tris-3-chloro-4-methylphenylcarbamate column. The effect of different chromatographic variables on chiral recognition is highlighted. This novel approach resulted in the baseline resolution of 13 enantiomers PACs (aminorex, carprofen, chloramphenicol, 3-N-dechloroethylifosfamide, flurbiprofen, 2-hydroxyibuprofen, ifosfamide, imazalil, naproxen, ofloxacin, omeprazole, praziquantel and tetramisole) and partial resolution of 2 enantiomers PACs (ibuprofen and indoprofen) under fast-gradient conditions (<10 min analysis time).

Chiral metal-organic cages used as stationary phase for enantioseparations in capillary electrochromatography

Since some metal-organic cages (MOCs) have been synthesized in past several years, the applications of MOCs such as drug delivery, molecular recognition, separation, catalysis, and gas storage, etc. have been witnessed with a significant increase. However, to the best of our knowledge, so far no one has used MOCs as chiral stationary phase to separate chiral compounds in CEC. In this study, three MOCs were developed as the stationary phase for CEC separation of enantiomers. The MOCs coated capillary column showed good chiral recognition ability for some chiral compounds, including amine, alcohols, ketone, etc. The influence of buffer concentration, applied voltage, pH of buffer solution on the chiral separations was also investigated. The RSDs of run-to-run, day-to-day, and column-to-column for retention time were 2.1-4.67%, 1.2-4.36%, and 3.62-6.43%, respectively. This work reveals that the chiral MOCs material is feasible for the enantioseparation in CEC.     

毛细管电色谱和加压毛细管电色谱的进展与应用

毛细管电色谱(CEC)以内含色谱固定相的毛细管为分离柱,以电渗流为驱动力,既可以分离带电物质也可以分离中性物质。它结合了毛细管电泳和高效液相色谱两者的优点,兼具高柱效、高分辨率、高选择性和高峰容量的特点,同时具有色谱和电泳的双重分离机理。然而,“纯粹”的电色谱在实际应用中有着天然的弱点,即: 在电流通过毛细管柱中的流动相时容易产生气泡(焦耳热作用),从而使电流中断和电渗流停止,毛细管柱必须被重新用流动相润湿后方能再次使用。加压毛细管电色谱(pCEC)将液相色谱中的压力流引入CEC系统中,不仅解决了气泡、干柱等问题,而且实现了定量阀进样和二元梯度洗脱。CEC和pCEC作为微分离领域的两种前沿技术,满足了当前复杂样品分析和分析仪器微型化的需求,近年来获得了广泛的关注。本文综述了这两种技术近来的发展,包括仪器、色谱固定相的发展,总结了其在生命科学、药物分析、食品安全以及环保样品分析等方面的应用进展,评述了各方法的特点,并展望了CEC和pCEC今后的发展和应用前景。

A glycopeptide antibiotic chiral stationary phase for the enantiomer resolution of hydroxy acid derivatives by capillary electrochromatography

Separation of hydroxy acid enantiomers was achieved by using capillary electrochromatography (CEC) employing a chiral stationary phase (CSP) based on MDL 63,246 (Hepta-Tyr), a macrocyclic antibiotic of the teicoplanin family. The chiral selector was chemically bonded to 5 num diol-modified silica particles and the CSP mixed with amino silica (3:1 w/w) was packed into a 75 num ID fused-silica capillary. The CEC experiments were carried out by using an aqueous reversed-phase mode for the enantiomeric resolution of hydroxy acid compounds. Good enantioresolution was achieved for mandelic acid (MA), m-hydroxymandelic acid (m-OH-MA), p-OH-MA, and 3-hydroxy-4-methoxymandelic acid (3-OH-4-MeO-MA). The CEC system was less enantioselective towards 2-phenyllactic acid (2-PhL) and 3-PhL while mandelic acid methyl ester (MA-Et-Est) enantiomers were not resolved. Several experimental parameters, such as organic solvent type and concentration, buffer pH, capillary temperature, on enantioresolution factor, retention time, and retention factor were studied.

Polymer‐based monolithic column with incorporated chiral metal–organic framework for enantioseparation of methyl phenyl sulfoxide using nano‐liquid chromatography

A new approach to the preparation of enantioselective porous polymer monolithic columns with incorporated chiral metal–organic framework for nano‐liquid chromatography has been developed. While no enantioseparation was achieved with monolithic poly(4‐vinylpyridine‐co‐ethylene dimethacrylate) column, excellent separations of both enantiomers of (±)‐methyl phenyl sulfoxide were achieved with its counterpart prepared after admixing metal–organic framework [Zn₂(benzene dicarboxylate)(l‐lactic acid)(dmf)], which is synthesized from zinc nitrate, l ‐lactic acid, and benzene dicarboxylic acid in the polymerization mixture. These novel monolithic columns combined selectivity of the chiral framework with the excellent hydrodynamic properties of polymer monoliths, may provide a great impact on future studies in the field of chiral analysis by liquid chromatography.

Enantiomer separations by capillary electrochromatography using chiral stationary phases

The applicability of capillary electrochromatography (CEC) using packed capillary column to enantiomer separations was investigated. As chiral stationary phases, OD type packing materials of 5 and 3 microm particle diameters, originally designed for conventional high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were employed. The chiral packing materials were packed by a pressurized method into a 100 microm I.D. fused-silica capillary. Several racemic enantiomers, such as acidic, neutral and basic drug components, were successfully resolved, typically by using acidic or basic solutions containing acetonitrile as mobile phases. The separation efficiencies for some enantiomers in the chiral CEC system using the 5 microm OD type packing were superior to those obtained in HPLC using chiral packings. The plate heights obtained for several enantiomers were 8-13 microm or the reduced plate height of 1.6-2.6, which indicates the high efficiency of this chiral CEC system.     

Effects of Blending Bare-Silica and Reversed-Phase on Retention of Neutral Compounds in Capillary Electrochromatography

Most commercially available instruments for capillary electrochromatography (CEC) have a fixed configuration and lack the flexibility to use shorter columns. Applying a blended stationary phase (a phase consisting of a given ratio of bare silica and reversed phase material) can simulate columns of different length in CEC. The goal of this work was to examine the effect of the degree of blending of reversed-phase columns (with bare silica) on the speed of the separation of neutral compounds in CEC. Optimum column packing mixture was determined from the variation of the solute retention factors as a function of the ratios of blending of reversed-phase and bare silica. By adjusting the column composition, solute retention factors and the analysis run time were halved when compared to a pure reversed-phase column of the same length. Stationary phase blending can be considered as an additional parameter to mobile phase variation, column temperature and applied electric field for the optimization of selectivity and analysis time. By adjusting the stationary phase composition, mobile phase composition, column temperature and applied electric field, the analysis run time of neutral components was decreased more than 75% when compared to a separation obtained on neat reversed-phase column of the same dimensions. The linear dependence of the retention factors as a function of the blend ratio (reversed phase/bare silica) offers a framework for designing a “blended” packed capillary column for CEC separations.

The analysis of basic pharmaceutical compounds by capillary electrochromatography using continuous bed stationary phase

Summary Capillary electrochromatography (CEC) is classed as a hybrid technique between CE and HPLC and it combines the advantages of both these techniques. However, in some cases the disadvantages are also brought to light and some of these are difficult to resolve. For example the analysis of basic compounds using CEC. The problems of tailing peaks during HPLC analysis of basic compounds was resolved by end capping the residual silanol groups, but in CEC these are the groups that generate the electroosmotic flow. The analysis of basic compounds is crucial within the pharmaceutical industry where a high percentage of the drug actives are basic. Specially designed Continuous Beds stationary phases (CB) can mean that each application can have a specific stationary phase. In order to overcome the problem associated with the analysis of basic compounds using electrochromatography, we have designed a CB stationary phase with a positive charge, which could be operated using negative voltage. The resulting chromatography showed almost gaussian peaks for bases like nortriptyline which tail significantly using stationary phase typically used in CEC.

Simulated moving columns technique for chiral liquid chromatography

Enantioselectivity of chiral selectors is often relatively low in chiral HPLC. For difficult chiral separations, often only partial resolution is obtained rather quickly by column and mobile phase screening, and, by trial-and-error, additional method optimization is required to achieve complete resolution. This paper describes the development of a novel column-switching technique called "simulated moving columns" (SMC) to quickly achieve complete chiral resolution on columns with limited enantioselectivity. The simulated moving columns (SMC) technique uses two (2) or three (3) short chiral HPLC columns connected in series, and forces the unresolved enantiomers to recycle exclusively through the columns until sufficient resolution is attained. In effect, SMC helps to achieve chiral resolution by virtually multiplying the column length, thus enhancing separation efficiency and resolution, without increasing backpressure. Comparison of the standard non-SMC approach with SMC, and selected applications of chiral separations of pharmaceutical drug molecules are presented. Through measurement and calculation, evaluation of off-column band broadening resulting from a two-column SMC system is provided. The results clearly indicate that SMC eliminates the significant band broadening that is inevitable in the closed-loop recycling techniques currently used in preparative chromatography. Furthermore, SMC is not only useful to enhance resolution for analytical and preparative chiral separation, but also has great potential to enhance recovery and purity for difficult chiral preparative chromatography.
