Silica hydride intermediate for octadecylsilica and phenyl bonded phase preparation via heterogeneous hydrosilation in supercritical carbon dioxide

Investigations into the preparation of silica hydride intermediate in supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO(2)) that avoids the use of organic solvents such as toluene or dioxane are described. The effects of reaction temperature, pressure and time on the surface coverage of the supercritical fluid generated silica hydride intermediate were studied. Under optimised supercritical conditions of 120°C, 483 bar and 3 h reaction time, silica hydride (Si-H) conversion efficiencies of ca. 40% were achieved for the hydride intermediate prepared from a monofunctional silane reagent (dimethylmethoxysilane). Si-H conversion efficiencies (as determined from (29)Si CP-MAS NMR spectral analysis) for the hydride intermediate prepared from triethoxysilane (TES) in sc-CO(2) were found to be comparable to those obtained using a TES silanisation approach in an organic solvent. (13)C and (29)Si CP-MAS-NMR spectroscopy was employed to provide a complete structural assignment of the silica hydride intermediates. Furthermore, supercritical CO(2) was subsequently employed as a reaction medium for the heterogenous hydrosilation of silica hydride with octadecene and with styrene, in the presence of a free radical initiator. These supercritical fluid generated reversed-phase materials were prepared in a substantially reduced reaction time (3 h) compared to organic solvent based methods (100 h reaction time). Silica functionalisation in sc-CO(2) presents an efficient and clean alternative to organic solvent based methods for the preparation of important silica hydride intermediate and silica bonded stationary phases via a hydrosilation approach.     

Optimization of the surface modification process of cross‐linked polythiol‐coated chiral stationary phases synthesized by a two‐step thiol‐ene click reaction

A new platform technology for the preparation of stable chiral stationary phases was successfully optimized. The chiral selector tert‐butylcarbamoylquinine was firstly covalently connected to the polymer poly(3‐mercaptopropyl)methylsiloxane by thiol‐ene click reaction. Secondly, the quinine carbamate functionalized polysiloxane conjugate was coated onto the surface of vinyl modified silica particles and cross‐linked via thiol‐ene click reaction. The amount of polysiloxane, chiral selector, radical initiator, reaction solvent (chloroform and methanol), reaction time, and pore size of the supporting silica particles were varied and systematically optimized in terms of achievable plate numbers while maintaining simultaneously enantioselectivity. The optimization was based on elemental analysis data, chromatographic results, and H/u‐curves (Van Deemter) of the resultant chiral stationary phases. The results suggest that better chromatographic efficiency (higher plate numbers) at equal enantioselectivity can be achieved with methanol (a poor solvent for the polysiloxane that is dispersed rather than dissolved) and a lower film thickness of quinine carbamate functionalized polysiloxane. In this study, chiral stationary phases based on 100 Å silica slightly outperformed 200 Å silica particles (each 5 μm). The optimized two step material exhibited significantly reduced mass transfer resistance compared to the one step material and equal performance as a brush‐type chiral stationary phase.     

Separation of racemic 2,4-dinitrophenyl amino acids on zirconia-immobilized quinine carbamate in reversed-phase liquid chromatography

Zirconia is known to be one of the best chromatographic support materials due to its excellent chemical, thermal, and mechanical stability. A quinine carbamate-coated zirconia was prepared as a chiral stationary phase for separation of enantiomers of DNP-amino acids in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Retention and enantioselectivity of this phase were compared to those for quinine carbamate bonded onto silica. Most amino acids studied were separated on the quinine carbamate-zirconia CSP although retention was longer and chiral selectivity was somewhat lower than on the corresponding silica CSP. Increased retention and decreased selectivity are probably due to strong non-enantioselective Lewis acid-base interactions between the amino acid molecule and the residual Lewis acid sites on the zirconia surface.     

Separation of racemic 2,4-dinitrophenyl amino acids on 9-O-(phenyloxycarbonyl)quinine-bonded carbon-clad zirconia in reversed-phase liquid chromatography

Zirconia is known to be one of the best materials for the chromatographic support due to its excellent chemical, thermal, and mechanical stability. In this work, we report preparation and use of 9-O-(phenyloxycarbonyl)quinine-bonded carbon-clad zirconia (QNCZ) as a chiral stationary phase (CSP) for separation of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) (DNP)-amino acids (AAs) enantiomers in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Retention and enantioselectivity of the QNCZ CSP were compared with those of quinine 3-triethoxysilylpropylcarbamate-coated zirconia (QNZ) and quinine 3-triethoxysilylpropylcarbamate-bonded silica (QNS). The QNCZ CSP showed in general the better enantioselectivity for most of the amino acids studied.     

Novel chiral stationary phases based on peptoid combining a quinine/quinidine moiety through a C9‐position carbamate group

By connecting a quinine or quinidine moiety to the peptoid chain through the C9‐position carbamate group, we synthesized two new chiral selectors. After immobilizing them onto 3‐mercaptopropyl‐modified silica gel, two novel chiral stationary phases were prepared. With neutral, acid, and basic chiral compounds as analytes, we evaluated these two stationary phases and compared their chromatographic performance with chiral columns based on quinine tert‐butyl carbamate and the previous peptoid. From the resolution of neutral and basic analytes under normal‐phase mode, it was found that the new stationary phases exhibited much better enantioselectivity than the quinine tert‐butyl carbamate column; the peptoid moiety played an important role in enantiorecognition, which controlled the elution orders of enantiomers; the assisting role of the cinchona alkaloid moieties was observed in some separations. Under acid polar organic phase mode, it was proved that cinchona alkaloid moieties introduced excellent enantiorecognitions for chiral acid compounds; in some separations, the peptoid moiety affected enantioseparations as well. Overall, chiral moieties with specific enantioselectivity were demonstrated to improve the performance of peptoid chiral stationary phase efficiently.     

Preparation and chromatographic evaluation of a chiral stationary phase based on carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin for high-performance liquid chromatography

A novel chiral stationary phase (CSP) was prepared by chemically bonding carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin (CM-β-CD) onto 3-aminopropyl silica gel and showed excellent enantioseparation abilities for a broad range of chiral compounds and drugs.     

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.     

Efficient preparative separation of 6‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐5‐methyl‐4, 5‐dihydro‐3(2H)‐pyridazinone enantiomers on polysaccharide‐based stationary phases in polar organic solvent chromatography and supercritical fluid chromatography

6‐(4‐Aminophenyl)‐5‐methyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐3(2H)‐pyridazinone is a key synthetic intermediate for cardiotonic agent levosimendan. Very few studies address the use of chiral stationary phases in chromatography for the enantioseparation of this intermediate. This study presents two efficient preparative methods for the isolation of (R)(?)‐6‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐5‐methyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐3(2H)‐pyridazinone in polar organic solvent chromatography and supercritical fluid chromatography using polysaccharide‐based chiral stationary phases and volatile organic mobile phases without additives in isocratic mode. Under optimum conditions, Chiralcel OJ column showed the best performance (α = 1.71, Rs = 5.47) in polar organic solvent chromatography, while Chiralpak AS column exhibited remarkable separations (α = 1.81 and Rs = 6.51) in supercritical fluid chromatography with an opposite enantiomer elution order. Considering the sample solubility, runtime and solvent cost, the preparations were carried out on Chiralcel OJ column and Chiralpak AS column (250 × 20 mm i.d.; 10 µm) in polar organic mode and supercritical fluid chromatography mode with methanol and CO₂/methanol as mobile phases, respectively. By utilizing the advantages of chromatographic techniques and polysaccharide‐based chiral stationary phases, this work provides two methods for the fast and economic preparation of (R)(?)‐6‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐5‐methyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐3(2H)‐pyridazinone, which are suitable for the pharmaceutical industry.     

New hybrid polymeric liquid chromatography chiral stationary phase prepared by surface-initiated polymerization

A new hybrid organic/inorganic HPLC chiral stationary phase (CSP1) has been synthesized by the grafting from (g-from) radical polymerization of an enantiopure diacryloyl derivative of trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane in the presence of mesoporous, azo-activated silica particles. The new chiral stationary phase has been fully characterized by elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, inverse size exclusion chromatography and Van Deemter analysis. CSP1 shows improved chromatographic performances compared to its analog CSP2 synthesized by the alternative grafting to (g-to) approach in which the azo initiator is kept in solution. CSP1 can successfully resolve several chemically diverse chiral compounds, using both organic and water-based eluents (normal phase, polar organic, etc.).     

Quinine Derivative Bonded the Hybrid Mesoporous Silicas Chiral Stationary Phase: Preparation and Application in Liquid Chromatography

A novel chiral stationary phase (QN‐APEPMOs) was synthesized by immobilizing quinine derivative (QN) onto spherical ammoniapropyl‐functionalized ethane‐bridged periodic mesoporous organosilicas (APEPMOs). The mesoporous material was prepared by a one‐step co‐condensation of 1,2‐bis (triethoxysilyl) ethane (BTSE) and 3‐ammoniapropyl triethoxysilane (KH‐550) using cetyltrimethyl‐ammoniumchlorine (C₁₈TACl) as a template with the aid of ethanol (co‐solvent) in basic medium. And O‐9‐(tert‐butyl carbamoyl) quinine derivative was immobilized on APEPMOs particles through the vinylic double bond. All of the products were characterized. The results showed that APEPMOs were perfect substrates for chiral stationary phase (CSP) and quinine moieties have been successfully immobilized onto the silica gel. To evaluate the chiral discrimination ability of the synthesized CSP, some analytes have been investigated on QN‐APEPMOs in high performance liquid chromatography (RP‐HPLC) in reversed phase. Three acidic compounds were baseline separated. The results demonstrated that QN‐APEPMOs had high selectivity for acidic compounds such as: carboxylic and sulfonic acids. And the reproducibility of the chiral column was good, while the stability was not very good.     

Enantioseparation of protonated primary arylalkylamines and amino acids containing an aromatic moiety on a pyridino-crown ether based new chiral stationary phase

This paper reports the preparation and testing of a new pyridino-18-crown-6 ether based chiral stationary phase (CSP). The chiral crown ether was covalently bound to silica gel. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy was used for probing the complex formation of the chiral crown ether with the enantiomers of protonated primary arylalkylamines. The (S,S)-dimethylpyridino-18-crown-6 ether selector having a terminal double bond was first transformed to a triethoxysilyl derivative by regioselective hydrosilylation, and then heated with spherical HPLC quality silica gel to obtain the CSP. The discriminating power of the HPLC column filled with the above CSP was tested by using the hydrogenperchlorate salts of racemic α-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine (1-NEA), α-(2-naphthyl)ethylamine (2-NEA) and the hydrochloride salts of aromatic α-amino acids and α-amino acids containing different aromatic side-chain protecting groups.

The composite materials obtained were used as the CSP for chiral separation processes and this kind of CSP exhibits good enantioselectivity for a variety of chiral compounds under reversed-phase conditions.     

Characterization of a chiral stationary phase by HR/MAS NMR spectroscopy and investigation of enantioselective interaction with chiral ligates by transferred NOE

The surface chemistry of a chiral stationary phase (CSP) with a (tert-butyl carbamoyl) quinine selector immobilized on thiol-modified silica has been characterized by (1)H HR/MAS NMR and (29)Si CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy. The mostly well-resolved (1)H signals could be assigned to stem from the surface-bound selector and the latter suggested a bi- and trifunctional silane linkage. Suspended-state NMR spectroscopy thus proved a well-characterized surface chemistry as proposed. To study chiral recognition phenomena in the presence of the CSP, (1)H HR/MAS 2D transfer NOESY investigations in methanol-d(4) have been undertaken with various solutes including N-3,5-dinitrobenzoyl derivatives of leucine (DNB-Leu) and N-acetyl phenylalanine (Ac-Phe). Both (R)- and (S)-enantiomers of DNB-Leu and Ac-Phe interacted with the tBuCQN-CSP as indicated by negative cross-peaks in the trNOESY spectra, while the 2D NOESY of the dissolved solutes in absence of the chiral stationary phase showed positive cross-peaks. The intensities of the trNOE cross-peaks were much stronger for the (S)-enantiomers. This stereoselectivity paralleled the experimental chromatographic behavior, where the (S)-enantiomers revealed stronger binding and retention on the tBuCQN-CSP as well. Hence, we were able to correlate the retention behavior to the trNOE NMR spectroscopic data in a qualitative manner.

A chiral stationary phase with special hydrophobic framework for ligand-exchange chromatography

A novel chiral stationary phase (CSP1) for ligand-exchange chromatography (CLEC) was prepared by firstly using dimethyl- chlorosilane as an endcapping reagent for decreasing residual silanol group on the surface of silica gel,and then introducing L-Pro as a chiral selector and hydrophobic octyl group to the silica gel surface simultaneously.The enantioseparations of 14 DL-amino acids on CSP1 were achieved with the enantioselectivityαranging from 1.09 to 2.44 and the resolution Rs being between 0.8 and 6.3.The chromatographic performances of CSP1 with the bonded phase (CSP2) prepared using reference method were compared.The results showed that the column efficiency and resolution Rs of chiral stationary phase could be improved by using the above modifying method.     

Preparation and evaluation of a chiral HPLC stationary phase based on cone calix[4]arene functionalized at the upper rim with l‐alanine units

Here we report a new chiral stationary phase (CSP) immobilized on silica gel based on cone calix[4]arene functionalized at the upper rim with two l ‐alanine units as new chiral selector that has been used in high‐performance liquid chromatography. The CSP was prepared by covalently bonding the allyl groups at the lower rim of calix[4]arene to silica gel by thiol‐ene click chemistry reaction. Elemental analysis of the CSP showed that 120 μmol of chiral selector bonded per gram of silica gel. 1‐Hexene was used for end‐capping of unreacted mercapto groups on silica gel. Since the CSP is chemically bonded to the silica, it can be used in the normal‐phase and reversed‐phase mode and with halogenated solvents as mobile phases, if desired. The chromatographic performance of the CSP was evaluated in the enantioseparation of the 3,5‐dinitrobenzoyl derivatives of some amino acids, diclofop‐methyl and dl ‐mandelic acid.     

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.     

Application of bromoacetate‐substituted β‐CD‐bonded silica particles as chiral stationary phase for HPLC

Bromoacetate‐substituted [3‐(2‐O‐β‐cyclodextrin)‐2‐hydroxypropoxy]propylsilyl‐appended silica particles (BACD‐HPS), an important and useful synthetic intermediate for preparation of novel types of macrocycles‐capped β‐CD‐bonded silica particles including crown ether/cyclam/calix[4]arene‐capped β‐CD‐bonded silica particles, have been prepared and used as chiral stationary phase for HPLC. This synthetic stationary phase is characterized by means of elemental analysis. For the first time, the chromatographic behavior of BACD‐HPS was systematically evaluated with several disubstituted benzenes and some chiral drug compounds under both normal and RP conditions in HPLC. The results show that BACD‐HPS has excellent selectivity for the separation of aromatic positional isomers and chiral isomers of some drug compounds when used as stationary phase in HPLC.
