Enantioseparation of aromatic amino acids using CEC monolith with novel chiral selector,N‐methacryloyl‐l‐histidine methyl ester

A new type of polymethacrylate‐based monolithic column with chiral stationary phase was prepared for the enantioseparation of aromatic amino acids, namely d ,l ‐phenylalanine, d ,l ‐tyrosine, and d ,l ‐tryptophan by CEC. The monolithic column was prepared by in situ polymerization of butyl methacrylate (BMA), N‐methacryloyl‐l ‐histidine methyl ester (MAH), and ethylene dimethacrylate (EDMA) in the presence of porogens. The porogen mixture included DMF and phosphate buffer. MAH was used as a chiral selector. FTIR spectrum of the polymethacrylate‐based monolith showed that MAH was incorporated into the polymeric structure via in situ polymerization. Some experimental parameters including pH, concentration of the mobile phase, and MAH concentration with regard to the chiral CEC separation were investigated. Single enantiomers and enantiomer mixtures of the amino acids were separately injected into the monolithic column. It was observed that l ‐enantiomers of aromatic amino acids migrated before d ‐enantiomers. The reversal enantiomer migration order for tryptophan was observed upon changing of pH. Using the chiral monolithic column (100 μm id and 375 μm od), the best chiral separation was performed in 35:65% ACN/phosphate buffer (pH 8.0, 10 mM) with an applied voltage of 12 kV in CEC. SEM images showed that the chiral monolithic column has a continuous polymeric skeleton and large through‐pore structure.     

A Silica Monolithic Column with Chemically Bonded l-Pipecolic Acid as Chiral Stationary Phase for Enantiomeric Separation of Dansyl Amino Acids by CEC–MS

A silica monolithic column chemically modified with l-pipecolic acid as chiral stationary phase has been developed for chiral separation of dansyl amino acids by capillary electrochromatography–mass spectrometry (CEC–MS). The monolithic column was prepared by a sol–gel process and subsequent chemical modification by l-pipecolic acid as chiral selector with 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane as spacer. Interestingly, it was found that the l-pipecolic acid-modified monolithic column can hold copper(II) ions tightly after loading Cu(II) ions during column preparation and conditioning and allows CEC separation to be conducted based on chiral ligand exchange with MS detection by a mobile phase without copper ions. It has been demonstrated that the chiral monolithic column operates well for enantioseparation of several dansyl amino acids by CEC–MS.

     

Chiral metal–organic framework used as stationary phases for capillary electrochromatography

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have received great attention as novel media in separation sciences because of their fascinating structures and unusual properties. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has been no attempt to utilize chiral MOFs as stationary phases in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). In this study, a homochiral helical MOF [Zn₂(D-Cam)₂(4,4′-bpy)]_n (D-Cam = D-(+)-camphoric acid, 4,4′-bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine) was explored as the chiral stationary phase in open tubular capillary electrochromatography (OT-CEC) for separation of chiral compounds and isomers. The MOFs coated column has been developed using a simple procedure via MOFs post-coated on the sodium silicate layer. The baseline separations of flavanone and praziquantel were achieved on the MOFs coated column with high resolution of more than 2.10. The influences of pH, organic modifier content and buffer concentration on separation were investigated. Besides, the separations of isomers (nitrophenols and ionones) were evaluated. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) for the retention time of run-to-run, day-to-day and column-to-column were 1.04%, 2.16% and 3.07%, respectively. The results demonstrated that chiral MOFs are promising for enantioseparation in CEC.     

Impact of amines as co-modifiers on the enantioseparation of various amino acid derivatives on a tert-butyl carbamoylated quinine-based chiral stationary phase

A tert-butyl carbamoylated quinine-based chiral stationary phase (CSP) for direct enantiomer separation of various natural and unnatural amino acid derivatives was studied. The influence of functional groups in the amino acid side chains upon the enantioseparation is discussed with the aim of realizing contributions to their overall chiral recognition. The effects of various amines as co-modifiers upon retention and overall enantioselectivity of amino acid derivatives in polar organic solvents was systematically investigated. In general, retention times decreased with increasing amine concentrations without a distinct alteration of enantioselectivity. All analytes were rapidly resolved on the CSP with the methanol-based mobile phase containing 87 mM acetic acid and 7 mM triethylamine.     

Towards the chiral metabolomics: Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry based dl-amino acid analysis after labeling with a new chiral reagent, (S)-2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl-1-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylate,and the application to saliva of healthy volunteers

A novel triazine-type chiral derivatization reagent, i.e., (S)-2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl-1-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl) pyrrolidine-2-carboxylate (DMT-(S)-Pro-OSu), was developed for the highly sensitive and selective detection of chiral amines and amino acids by UPLC–MS/MS analysis. The enantiomers of amino acids were easily labeled with the reagents at room temperature within 40 min in an alkaline medium containing triethylamine. The diastereomers derived from proteolytic amino acids, except serine, were well separated under isocratic elution conditions by reversed-phase chromatography using an ODS column (R_s = 1.2–9.0). dl-Serine was separated by use of an ADME column which has relatively higher polar surface than the conventional ODS column. The characteristic product ions, i.e., m/z 195.3 and m/z 209.3, were detected from all the diastereomers by the collision-induced dissociation of the protonated molecule. A highly sensitive detection on the amol–fmol level was obtained from the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) chromatogram. The chiral amines (e.g., adrenaline and noradrenaline) labeled with DMT-(S)-Pro-OSu were also well separated and sensitively detected by the present procedure. The method using DMT-(S)-Pro-OSu was used for the determination of dl-amino acids in the human saliva from healthy volunteers. Various l-amino acids were identified in the saliva. Furthermore, d-alanine (d-Ala) and d-proline (d-Pro) were also detected in relatively high concentrations (>5%). The ratio was higher in male saliva than in female saliva. However, the difference in the ratio of d-Ala for one day was not very high and the effect of foods and beverage seemed to be negligible. Based on the results using l-Ala-d₃, the d-Ala in saliva seemed to be produced due to the racemization with some enzymes such as racemase. The racemization reaction was reversible, i.e., d-Ala-d₃ was also racemized to l-Ala-d₃ in saliva. Thus, care should be taken during the analysis of dl-amino acids in saliva. The present method using DMT-(S)-Pro-OSu may be applicable for the determination of chiral amine metabolomics, because the resulting derivatives produce the same product ions without relation to the compounds and show highly sensitive detection in the SRM mode of MS/MS. Consequently, DMT-(S)-Pro-OSu seems to be a useful chiral derivatization reagent for the determination of amines and amino acids in biological samples.     

Enantioseparation of chiral sulfonates by liquid chromatography and subcritical fluid chromatography

Tert‐butylcarbamoyl‐quinine and ‐quinidine weak anion‐exchange chiral stationary phases (Chiralpak® QN‐AX and QD‐AX) have been applied for the separation of sodium β‐ketosulfonates, such as sodium chalconesulfonates and derivatives thereof. The influence of type and amount of co‐ and counterions on retention and enantioresolution was investigated using polar organic mobile phases. Both columns exhibited remarkable enantiodiscrimination properties for the investigated test solutes, in which the quinidine‐based column showed better enantioselectivity and slightly stronger retention for all analytes compared to the quinine‐derived chiral stationary phase. With an optimized mobile phase (MeOH, 50 mM HOAc, 25 mM NH₃), 12 of 13 chiral sulfonates could be baseline separated within 8 min using the quinidine‐derivatized column. Furthermore, subcritical fluid chromatography (SubFC) mode with a CO₂‐based mobile phase using a buffered methanolic modifier was compared to HPLC. Generally, SubFC exhibited slightly inferior enantioselectivities and lower elution power but also provided unique baseline resolution for one compound.     

Simultaneous separation of five fluoroquinolone antibiotics by capillary zone electrophoresis

A chiral separation method for glycidol enantiomers determination by normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry was developed. Two chiral stationary phases, amylose tris-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralpak AD-H) and (S)-indoline-2-carboxylic acid and (R)-1-(α-naphthyl) ethylamine (SUMICHIRAL OA-4900) have been investigated. The effects of the mobile phase composition, elution program and column temperature were also studied. Under the best conditions: Chiralpak AD-H column, mobile phase composition n-hexane:ethanol (70:30, v/v), flow rate of 0.8 mL/min and 40 °C column temperature, a good resolution (Rs = 1.6) for both enantiomers has been achieved with an analysis time of 16 min. The method was found to be linear in the range from 100 to 500 ppm for both glycidol enantiomers with a good determination coefficient (r² higher than 0.99) and good precision. Limits of detection of 31 and 50 ppm for (R)-(+)-glycidol and (S)-(−)-glycidol, respectively, were obtained. The method was applied to the determination of the enantiomeric excess and yield obtained in a asymmetric epoxidation process of allyl alcohol with a chiral titanium-tartrate complex as catalyst.     

Reversal of the enantiomeric elution order of some aromatic amino acids using reversed-phase chromatographic supports coated with the teicoplanin chiral selector

In this paper, two chiral stationary phases were prepared by coating the surface of both C8 and C18 high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) supports with the teicoplanin chiral selector. The hydrophobic C11 acyl side chain, attached to the d-glucosamine group of teicoplanin, served as anchor moiety for the immobilization of the chiral selector on the apolar support material. The retention and enantioselectivity of these coated stationary phases were studied using some aromatic amino acids as probe solutes and an aqueous solution as mobile phase. It was found that the enantiomer elution order on the modified C8 and C18 stationary phases was reversed (l > d) relatively to that classically observed with a teicoplanin covalently immobilized on a silica support (d > l). Such a dynamic coating on the reversed-phase supports was found to be of interest since the apparent enantioselectivity was not significantly changed by the use during an extended period of time or following a long-term storage of the columns.     

Monolithic silica columns with chemically bonded tert-butylcarbamoylquinine chiral anion-exchanger selector as a stationary phase for enantiomer separations

An enantioselective silica rod type chiral stationary phase (CSP) is presented as a novel combination of the well-known enantiomer separation properties of immobilized tert-butyl-carbamoylquinine chiral anion-exchanger selector with the unique properties of monolithic silica material. The chromatographic behavior of the tert-butyl-carbamoylquinine silica rod was studied and compared with a similar prepared particulate material. Good selectivities were achieved for a spectrum of chiral test components like N-derivatized amino acids (DNB- Ac-, DNZ-, Bz-, Z-amino acids) and for Suprofen. The influence of mobile phase parameters, as well as the effect of serially coupling up to six 10 cm monolithic silica columns was studied and put in context to conventional columns of particulate 5 microm type CSP. Using that 60 cm long monolithic column it was possible to improve the enantiomer separation of Suprofen and achieve a baseline separation in less than 10 min of total separation time.     

Enantiomeric separation of unusual secondary aromatic amino acids

Summary High-performance liquid chromatographic and gas chromatographic methods were developed for the separation of unusual secondary aromatic amino acids. Amino acids containing 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronorharmane-1-carboxylic acid and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3-carboxy-2-carboline moieties were synthetized in racemic or chiral forms. The high-performance liquid chromatography was carried out either on a teicoplanin-containing chiral stationary phase or on an achiral C₁₈ column. In the latter case the diastereomers of the amino acids formed by precolumn derivatization with the chiral reagents 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate or 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl-5-L-alanine amide were separated. The gas chromatographic analyses were based on separation on a Chirasil-L-Val column.

Effect of alkylimidazolium substituents on enantioseparation ability of single-isomer alkylimidazolium-beta-cyclodextrin derivatives in capillary electrophoresis

A family of 6-mono(3-alkylimidazolium)-β-cyclodextrins with one primary hydroxyl group replaced by an alkylimidazolium cation has been developed. The effect of alkyl substitutents on the enantioresolution ability of these single-isomer cyclodextrins towards dansyl amino acids has been studied by capillary electrophoresis. Systematical investigations on the effect of buffer pH and selector concentration on the enatioseparation show that chiral selectors with a shorter alkyl chain (R = C_nH_2n+1, n ≤ 4) presented more powerful chiral recognition ability. These newly introduced single-isomer β-cyclodextrin derivatives proved to be effective chiral selectors for most selected dansyl amino acids at low buffer pH (e.g. pH 5.0) with selector concentration no less than 3 mM. The apparent complex stability constants between alkylimidazolium β-CDs and dansyl amino acids were also theoretically determined by using the mobility difference model proposed by Wren and Rowe. The side alkyl chains from both dansyl amino acids and alkylimidazolium β-CDs displayed significant effect on the apparent complex stability constants. Both the optimum selector concentrations calculated according to the model, however, were much lower than the experimental values giving the maximum chiral resolution of enantiomers.     

Preconcentration and frontal electroelution of amino acids for in-line solid-phase extraction-capillary electrophoresis

A new frontal electroelution approach that can be used for the preconcentration of amino acids in in-line solid-phase extraction-capillary electrophoresis (SPE-CE) has been developed. A single capillary was employed featuring a short monolithic SPE column created inside the capillary via photo-initiated, free-radical polymerisation of 3-sulfopropyl methacrylate and butyl methacrylate monomers. A weak electrolyte of dilute H₂SO₄, pH 2.9, was found to promote adsorption of the amino acids onto the SPE column. Elution of the amino acids was achieved using a dual solvation/ion-exchange transient boundary mobilised via EOF by using a strong electrolyte containing 62.5 mM ethylenediamine, pH 2.9 with H₂SO₄ and 40% (v/v) acetonitrile. Using these two electrolytes, tryptophan was adsorbed onto the SPE column in weak electrolyte and eluted via a frontal electroelution mechanism in the strong electrolyte. Injections up to 20 min, corresponding to over 14 column volumes (or 1400% of the capillary volume) of sample provided quantitative extraction of tryptophan from the weak electrolyte and were eluted without any loss in efficiency. This represents a practical increase of approximately 300-fold when compared to a typical hydrodynamic injection occupying 5% of the capillary volume.     

Evaluation of triproline and tri-α-methylproline chiral stationary phases: Retention and enantioseparation associated with hydrogen bonding

In this study, to demonstrate preparation strategy and improve understanding of chiral recognition mechanisms, triproline chiral stationary phases (CSPs) were evaluated with a series of analytes classified as having none, one, two or three H-bond donors. The average retention factors and mobile phase strength generally followed none < one < two < three hydrogen bond donors. The average solvent volume ratio (H_r stands for average hexane volume ratio in the mobile phase, Hp_r for heptane, ACN_r for acetonitrile, or H₂O_r for water) normalized chromatographic parameters calculated for di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, hexa-, and decaproline CSPs facilitated the characterization of properties associated to the H-bond donor categorization. The H_r of triproline CSP were 1.0, 0.96 and 0.88 for analyte of none, one and two hydrogen bond donors with hexane/2-propanol mobile phase, respectively. The number of hydrogen bond donors in an analyte was found to be a primary factor in influencing the retention and enantioseparation in the normal-phase and polar organic modes. Two H-bond acceptor solvents methyl tert-butyl ether and ethyl acetate increased chiral separation on oligoproline CSPs for some compounds. The role of carbon-donor hydrogen bonding at the H atom of proline asymmetric center was implied through testing a tri-α-methylproline stationary phase. On oligoproline CSPs, three factors including adjacent hydrogen bond acceptor and carbon-donor, and a rigid proline residue chain were recognized as important for contributing to the broad enantioselectivity. The α hydrogen atom on chiral center of stationary phase was found to play a crucial role in enantiomeric discrimination.     

A novel pillar[3]trianglimine macrocycle with a deep cavity used as a chiral selector to prepare a chiral stationary phase by thiol-ene click reaction for enantioseparation in high-performance liquid chromatography

A chiral pillar[3]trianglimine (C₆₀H₇₂N₆O₆) with a deep cavity has been developed as a chiral selector and bonded to thiolated silica by thiol-ene click reaction to fabricate a novel chiral stationary phase for enantioseparation in high-performance liquid chromatography. The enantioseparation performance of the fabricated chiral stationary phase has been evaluated by separating various racemic compounds, including alcohols, esters, amines, ketones, amino acids, and epoxides, in both normal-phase and reversed-phase elution modes. In total, 14 and 17 racemates have been effectively separated in these two separation modes, respectively. In comparison with two widely used chiral columns (Chiralcel OD-H and Chiralpak AD-H), our novel chiral stationary phase offered good chiral separation complementarity, separating some of the tested racemates that could not be separated or were only partially separated on these two commercial columns. The influences of analyte mass, mobile phase composition, and column temperature on chiral separation have been investigated. Good repeatability, stability, and column-to-column reproducibility of the chiral stationary phase for enantioseparation have been observed. After the fabricated column had been eluted up to 400 times, the relative standard deviations (n = 5) of resolution (Rs) and retention time of the separated analytes were < 0.39% and < 0.20%, respectively. The relative standard deviations (n = 3) of Rs and retention time for column-to-column reproducibility were < 4.6% and < 5.2%, respectively. This study demonstrated that the new chiral stationary phase has great prospects for chiral separation in high-performance liquid chromatography.     

Enantiomeric resolution of biomarkers in space analysis: Chemical derivatization and signal processing for gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis of chiral amino acids

The work compares two GC–MS methods for enantioselective separation of amino acids as suitable candidate for stereochemical analysis of chiral amino acids on board spacecrafts in space exploration missions of solar system body environments. Different derivatization reagents are used: a mixture of alkyl chloroformate–alcohol–pyridine to obtain the alkyl alkoxy carbonyl esters and a mixture of perfluorinated alcohols and anhydrides to form perfluoroacyl perfluoroalkyl esters. 20 proteinogenic amino acids were derivatized with the two procedures and submitted to GC–MS analysis on a Chirasil-l-Val stationary phase. The results were then compared in terms of the enantiomeric separation achieved and intensity of MS response. The combination of methyl chloroformate (MCF) and heptafluoro-1-butanol (HFB) allows separation of 14 enantiomeric pairs, five of which display a resolution (R_s ≥ 1.2) supposed to be sufficient to quantify the enantiomeric excess. Three mixtures of trifluoroacetic (TFAA) and heptafluorobutyric (HFBA) anhydrides were combined with the corresponding perfluorinated alcohols – TFE (2,2,2-trifluoro-1-ethanol) and HFB (2,2,3,3,4,4,4-heptafluoro-1-butanol) – to give three different reagents (TFAA–TFE, TFAA–HFB, HFBA–HFB): the derivatives obtained show separation of the same number of proteinogenic amino acids (14 of 20) at a temperature lower than column bleeding limit (200 °C) and 8 of them give a separation with R_s ≥ 1.2. Linearity study and limit of detection (X_LOD) computation show that both methods are suitable for quantitative determination of several amino acid diastereomers at trace level (X_LOD ≈ 0.5 nmol as derivatized quantity). Both the procedures were coupled with automatic data handling to increase their suitability for space analysis: the simplified data treatment is especially helpful to handle the low quality data recovered from space experiments and labor and time are saved, as imposed by the space experiments requiring a rapid delivery of the results. To achieve this aim, a chemometric approach based on the computation of the Autocovariance Function (ACVF) was applied to extract information on the enantiomeric pairs present in the sample and the enantioseparation achieved on the chiral column.     

Preparation and evaluation of novel chiral stationary phases based on quinine derivatives comprising crown ether moieties

The C9‐position of quinine was modified by meta‐ or para‐substituted benzo‐18‐crown‐6, and immobilized on 3‐mercaptopropyl‐modified silica gel through the radical thiol‐ene addition reaction. These two chiral stationary phases were evaluated by chiral acids, amino acids, and chiral primary amines. The crown ether moiety on the quinine anion exchanger provided a ligand‐exchange site for primary amino groups, which played an important role in the retention and enantioselectivity for chiral compounds containing primary amine groups. These two stationary phases showed good selectivity for some amino acids. The complex interaction between crown ether and protonated primary amino group was investigated by the addition of inorganic salts such as LiCl, NH₄Cl, NaCl, and KCl to the mobile phase. The resolution results showed that the simultaneous interactions between two function moieties (quinine and crown ether) and amino acids were important for the chiral separation.     

Direct chiral resolution of underivatized amino acids on a stationary phase dynamically modified with the ion‐exchanger Nτ‐decyl‐l‐spinacine

Increasing attention has been devoted in the last decades to chiral chromatography, principally to high‐performance liquid chromatography techniques using a chiral stationary phase. Many chiral high‐performance liquid chromatography columns are commercially available, but, unfortunately, they are most often rather expensive. A cheap alternative to the commercial chiral columns is the dynamic‐coating procedure of a standard achiral stationary phase with a chiral selector containing both a chiral domain and a chain or a group able to tightly (but noncovalently) bind the achiral support. This is the case of N^τ‐decyl‐l ‐spinacine, already successfully employed to dynamically cover a reversed‐phase column to separate racemic mixtures of amino acids through the ligand‐exchange mechanism. In the present work, the same chiral selector is employed to separate racemic mixtures of amino acids and oligopeptides, in the absence of metal ions: no coordination complex is formed, but only electrostatic and weak nonbonding interactions between the chiral phase and the analytes are responsible for the observed enantioselectivity. The new method is simpler than the previous one, very effective in the case of aromatic amino acids and oligopeptides and also suitable for preparative purposes.     

Preparation and evaluation of a neutral methacrylate-based monolithic column for hydrophilic interaction stationary phase by pressurized capillary electrochromatography

A polar and neutral polymethacrylate-based monolithic column was evaluated as a hydrophilic interaction capillary electrochromatography (HI-CEC) stationary phase with small polar–neutral or charged solutes. The polar sites on the surface of the monolithic solid phase responsible for hydrophilic interactions were provided from the hydroxy and ester groups on the surface of the monolithic stationary phase. These polar functionalities also attract ions from the mobile phase and impart the monolithic solid phase with a given zeta potential to generate electro-osmotic flow (EOF). The monolith was prepared by in situ copolymerization of a neutral monomer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and a polar cross-linker with hydroxy group, pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), in the presence of a binary porogenic solvent consisting cyclohexanol and dodecanol. A typical HI-CEC mechanism was observed on the neutral polar stationary phase for both neutral and charged analytes. The composition of the polymerization mixture was systematically altered and optimized by altering the amount of HEMA in the polymerization solution as well as the composition of the porogenic solvent. The monoliths were tested in the pCEC mode. The resulting monoliths had different characteristics of hydrophilicity, column permeability, and efficiency. The effects of pH, salt concentration, and organic solvent content on the EOF velocity and the separation of nucleic acids and nucleosides on the optimized monolithic column were investigated. The optimized monolithic column resulted in good separation and with greater than 140,000 theoretical plates/m for pCEC.     

Click regulation of cyclodextrin primary face for the preparation of novel chiral stationary phases

In this study, a series of novel CD chiral stationary phases were fabricated by immobilization of mono‐6^A‐deoxy‐N₃‐cyclodextrin onto silica surfaces followed by click regulation of CD primary face with 4‐pentynoic acid (acidic moiety), 2‐propynylamine (alkaline moiety) and L‐propargylglycine (chiral amino acid moiety), respectively. Enantioseparations of various kinds of racemates including dansyl‐amino acids, chiral lactides and diketones were conducted in reversed phase modes on these chiral stationary phases, where nearly forty diketones and chiral lactides were firstly separated on cyclodextrin stationary phases. 4‐Pentynoic acid moiety can make the retention ability decline while amine moiety significantly enhanced the retention ability of the stationary phases. For most of the studied analytes, the chiral amino acid moiety had the most positive effects on both the retention time and the resolution. The inclusion complexation between chiral analytes and cyclodextrins were also investigated by fluorescence method.
