Preparation of Regioselectively Modified Amylose Derivatives and Their Applications in Chiral HPLC

Four regioselectively modified amylose derivatives with three different substituents at the 2-, 3-, and 6-positions were prepared and their enantioseparations in HPLC were examined. Investigations indicated that the nature as well as the arrangement of the substituents significantly influenced their enantioseparations and each derivative exhibited characteristic chiral recognition. Amylose 2-benzoyl-3-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate or 3,5-dichlorophenylcarbamate)-6-((S)-1-phenylethylcarbamate) exhibited chiral resolving abilities comparable to the commercial available amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-based column, Chiralpak AD and the racemic compounds shown in this study were most effectively resolved on these two derivatives. The influence of mobile phase on chiral resolution was also examined.

     

Synthesis and chiral recognition of novel amylose derivatives containing regioselectively benzoate and phenylcarbamate groups

A new class of regioselectively substituted amylose derivatives bearing three different substituents at 2-, 3- and 6-positions, and two different substituents at 2-position and 3-, 6-positions were synthesized by a sequential process based on the esterification of 2-position of a glucose unit. Their chiral recognition abilities were evaluated as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Each derivative had its own characteristic recognition ability depending on the arrangement of side chains at the three positions. Among the derivatives, amylose 2-(4-t-butylbenzoate) and amylose 2-(4-chlorobenzoate) series exhibited high chiral recognition. Some racemates can be efficiently separated on these derivatives as well as on the amylose tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate, which is commercially available as Chiralpak AD and one of the most powerful CSPs. The structures of the amylose derivatives were also investigated by circular dichroism spectroscopy.

Polysaccharide derivatives as chiral stationary phases in HPLC

Twenty different tris(phenylcarbamate)s of cellulose were synthesized and evaluated as chiral stationary phases for HPLC. Optical resolving power of the tris(phenylcarbamate)s depends on the substituents introduced on the phenyl groups. Optical resolving abilities of amylose tris(phenylcarbamate)s were also evaluated. In most cases, either cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) or amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) exhibited the highest optical resolving ability. Aralkylcarba-mates such as benzyl- and 1-phenylethylcarbamates of cellulose and amylose were also tested as chiral stationary phases. (S)-1-Phenylethylcarbamate of amylose showed a high optical resolving power.

Phenylcarbamate derivatives of cellulose and amylose immobilized onto silica gel as chiral stationary phases for high-performance liquid chromatography

Three polysaccharide phenylcarbamate derivatives [cellulose 2,3-bis(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-6-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)/(2-methacryloyloxyethylcarbamate), cellulose 2,3-bis(3,5-dichlorophenylcarbamate)-6-(3,5-dichlorophenylcarbamate)/(2-methacryloyloxyethylcarbamate), and amylose 2,3-bis(3, 5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-6-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)/(2-methacryloyloxyethylcarbamate)] with vinyl groups were prepared and coated onto silica gel to immobilize them via radical copolymerization with 2,3-dimethylbutadiene. The copolymerization efficiently proceeded, and the coated polysaccharide derivatives were mostly immobilized on the surface of the silica gel. The immobilized polysaccharide derivatives showed high chiral recognition abilities similar to those of the corresponding coated polysaccharide derivatives. They could be used with an eluent containing chloroform, which dissolved the polysaccharide derivatives. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 42: 4704–4710, 2004     

Separation and Recognition of the Enantiomers of trans Arylcyclopropanecarboxylic Acids and their Amide and Nitrile Derivatives on Polysaccharide Stationary Phases

Separation of the enantiomers of several trans arylcyclopropanecarboxylic acids and their amide and nitrile derivatives has been systematically studied on three polysaccharide HPLC stationary phases, amylose tris-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate), cellulose tris-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate), and cellulose tris-(4-methylbenzoate). Enantiomer recognition by the chiral stationary phases is discussed in terms of the type of functional group, electronic and steric effects of substituents on the analytes, the structure of the chiral stationary phase, and mobile phase composition.     

One-pot synthesis of polysaccharide 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamates having a random vinyl group for immobilization on silica gel as chiral stationary phases

Different kinds of vinyl groups were randomly introduced onto the glucose units of cellulose 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamates by a one-pot method using the bifunctional reagents dec-1-ene-10-isocyanate, 2-isocyanatoethyl methacrylate, and methacryloyl chloride. The chiral recognition properties of the prepared derivatives were then evaluated by coating and immobilizing them on silica gel as HPLC packing material. Immobilization was carried out by radical copolymerization with a vinyl comonomer, 1,5-hexadiene, in toluene at 80 degrees C. The effects of the structures and content of the vinyl groups on the immobilization and on enantioseparations were investigated. This one-pot method was also extended to the synthesis of amylose 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamates having a random vinyl group. Comparisons of the chiral resolution powers of our laboratory-made packing materials and the newly commercialized Chiralpak IA with immobilized amylose 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate and Chiralpak IB with immobilized cellulose 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate are discussed.     

Direct enantiomeric separations of tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium (III) complexes on polysaccharide derivative-based chiral stationary phases

A convenient method is presented for the first time for the direct separation of enantiomers of a tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium (III) and an analog substituted with long alkoxy chains on polysaccharide derivative-based chiral stationary phases by HPLC. Tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium (III) was separated on the immobilized amylose 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate (Chiralpak IA) using hexane/CHCl3/CH2Cl2 (75:20:5) as an eluent, and the analog could be separated on the coated cellulose 3,5-dimethyl-phenylcarbamate (Chiralcel OD) and cellulose 4-methylbenzoate (Chiralcel OJ) using hexane/2-propanol (96:4) as the eluent. CD spectra of the eluted HPLC fractions were also recorded, and the observed mirror image patterns confirm their enantioseparations.

Comparison of separation performance of polysaccaride-based chiral stationary phases in enantioseparation of 1-(4-chlorobenzhydryl)piperazine benzamide derivatives by HPLC

Analytical high-performance liquid chromatographic enantioseparation of 1-(4-chlorobenzhydryl) piperazine benzamide derivatives was accomplished on different chiral stationary phases. The enantiomers of the compounds were resolved by normal-phase chromatography on silica-based amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralpak AD-H), cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralcel OD-H) and cellulose tris(4-methylbenzoate) (Chiralcel OJ) columns with mobile phases consisting of mixtures of n-hexane and ethanol in different proportions (90: 10, 80: 20). The mobile phase and the chiral stationary phase were varied to achieve the best resolution. The effect of the concentration of ethanol in the mobile phase was studied. The resolution obtained on the three columns was significant.

Enantiomer separation and indirect chromatographic absolute configuration prediction of chiral pirinixic acid derivatives: Limitations of polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phases in comparison to chiral anion-exchangers

Chiral α-arylthiocarboxylic acids with different substitution patterns, representing new pirinixic acid derivatives with dual PPARα/γ agonistic activities, have been separated into enantiomers on tert-butylcarbamoylquinine and quinidine based chiral anion-exchangers and amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) coated silica on analytical and preparative scale. Absolute configurations of individual enantiomers were assigned chromatographically via elution orders on the chiral anion-exchangers and were confirmed by stereoselective syntheses via Ewans auxiliaries that have lead to enantiomeric products with known absolute configurations. The results of both methods were in full agreement. Moreover, the receptor stereoselectivity in PPARα transactivation activities was consistent within the test set of structurally related compounds. Limited correlation (between elution order and substitution) was observed within the set of α-arylthiocarboxylic acids on the amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) based chiral stationary phase (CSP), in particular the elution order changed with remote substitution. This clearly demonstrates the risks of chromatographic absolute configuration assignments by prediction from one structural analog to another one, especially with CSPs such as polysaccharide CSPs that are recognized for their broad applicability due to multiple binding and chiral recognition modes. It is therefore of utmost importance that such chromatographic absolute configuration predictions by extrapolation to structural analogs are combined with orthogonal methods for verification of the results.     

Diastereomeric and enantiomeric resolution of methoxytetrahydronaphthalene derivatives, melatonin ligand receptors, by HPLC on amylose chiral stationary phases

Summary Five methoxytetrahydronaphthalene derivatives, new agonist and antagonist ligands for melatonin receptors, were resolved into their diastereomers by analytical HPLC methods using derivatized amylose, chiral stationary phases. Separation was by using normal phase methodology with a mobile phase ofn-hexane-alcohol (ethanol or 2-propanol) and a silica-based amylose tris-(S)-1-phenylethylcarbamate (Chiralpak AS), or tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate (Chiralpak AD). The effects of structural variation in the solutes were noted. Baseline separation was easily obtained in many cases.     

Enantiomeric separation of precursors of rho-kinase inhibitors by HPLC on polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases

Summary The separation of enantiomers of substituted cyclohexanecarboxamides, benzamides and chemical precursors of Rho-kinase inhibitors was achieved using derivatized polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases. Separations were by normal phase HPLC with a mobile phase ofn-hexane-alcohol (methanol, ethanol or 2-propanol) in various proportions, and a silica-based cellulose tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate (Chiralcel OD-H), tris-methylbenzoate (Chiralcel OJ), a silica-based amylose tris-(S)-1-phenylethylcarbamate (Chiralpak AS), or tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate (Chiralpak AD). The effects of cencentration of various aliphatic alcohols in the mobile phase were investigated. The effect of structural features on the discrimination between the enantiomers was examined. The isolation of milligram amounts of enantiomers of two derivatives was performed on an analytical column by multiple repetitive injections under overload conditions.     

Enantioseparations of polyhalogenated 4,4’-bipyridines on polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases and molecular dynamics simulations of selector–selectand interactions

2’-(4-Pyridyl)- and 2’-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-TCIBPs (TCIBP = 3,3’,5,5’-tetrachloro-2-iodo-4,4’-bipyridyl) are chiral compounds that showed interesting inhibition activity against transthyretin fibrillation in vitro. We became interested in their enantioseparation since we noticed that the M-stereoisomer is more effective than the P-enantiomer. Based thereon, we recently reported the enantioseparation of 2’-substituted TCIBP derivatives with amylose-based chiral columns. Following this study, herein we describe the comparative enantioseparation of both 2’-(4-pyridyl)- and 2’-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-TCIBPs on four cellulose phenylcarbamate-based chiral columns aiming to explore the effect of the polymer backbone, as well as the nature and position of substituents on the side groups on the enantioseparability of these compounds. In the frame of this project, the impact of subtle variations of analyte and polysaccharide structures, and mobile phase (MP) polarity on retention and selectivity was evaluated. The effect of temperature on retention and selectivity was also considered, and overall thermodynamic parameters associated with the analyte adsorption onto the CSP surface were derived from van ’t Hoff plots. Interesting cases of enantiomer elution order (EEO) reversal were observed. In particular, the EEO was shown to be dependent on polysaccharide backbone, the elution sequence of the two analytes being P-M and M-P on cellulose and amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate), respectively. In this regard, a theoretical investigation based on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations was performed by using amylose and cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) nonamers as virtual models of the polysaccharide-based selectors. This exploration at the molecular level shed light on the origin of the enantiodiscrimination processes.     

Diastereomeric resolution of nucleoside analogues, new potential antiviral agents, using high-performance liquid chromatography on polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phases

This paper describes the separation of the four sets of stereoisomers of nucleoside analogs, new potential antiviral agents by direct analytical HPLC methods using derivatized cellulose and amylose chiral stationary phases. The resolution was made using normal-phase methodology with a mobile phase consisting of n-hexane-alcohol (ethanol or 2-propanol) in various percentages, and a silica-based cellulose tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate (Chiralcel OD-H), or tris-methylbenzoate (Chiralcel OJ) and a silica-based amylose tris-3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate (Chiralpak AD) or tris-(S)-1-phenylethylcarbamate (Chiralpak AS). The effects of structural features on the extent of discrimination between the stereoisomers were examined through the retention, the selectivity and the resolution factors as well as the elution order. Baseline separation (Rs>1.5) was easily obtained in many cases. The resolution results were complementary between the different columns.     

Separation of the enantiomers of 4-aryl-7,7-dimethyl- and 1,7,7-trimethyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroquinazoline-2,5-diones by chiral HPLC

Summary Analytical HPLC methods using derivatized cellulose chiral stationary phases have been developed for separation of the enantiomers of 25 racemic 4-aryl-7,7-dimethyl- or 1,77-trimethyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroquinazoline-2,5-diones, condensed derivatives of dihydropyrimidines. The enantiomers of the compounds were resolved by normal-phase chromatography on silica-based cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralcel OD) and amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralpak AD) columns with mobile phases consisting of mixtures ofn-hexane and an alcohol (2-propanol, ethanol, or methanol) in different proportions. The mobile phase and the chiral stationary phase were varied to achieve the best resolution. The effect of the concentration of alcohol in the mobile phase was studied. The resolution obtained on the two columns was complementary.     

Enantioseparations in non-aqueous capillary electrochromatography using polysaccharide type chiral stationary phases

Enantioseparations of chiral compounds with different structures were studied in non-aqueous capillary electrochromatography (NAQ CEC). Three different polysaccharide derivatives, cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralcel OD), amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralpak AD) and cellulose tris(4-methylbenzoate) (Chiralcel OJ) were used as chiral stationary phases (CSPs). Methanolic or ethanolic ammonium acetate solutions served as a mobile phase. The effect of the type of the CSP, the loading of the chiral selector on wide-pore aminopropyl derivatized silica gel and operational parameters such as apparent pH, applied voltage, etc. on the EOF and chromatographic characteristics (alpha, N, Rs) were studied. NAQ CEC represents a valuable alternative and an extension to chiral separations by HPLC with common-size columns as well as to capillary LC and CEC in aqueous buffers.
