Enantiomer separations by capillary GC on modified gyclodextrins

Three new chiral selectors, 6-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-2,3-diethyl-a-cyclodextrin, 6-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-2,3-diethyl- and dipropyl-β-cyclodextrin (TBDE-α-CD, TBDE-β-CD, TBDP-β-CD) were synthesized and tested as chiral stationary phases in capillary gas chromatography. TBDE-β-CD in particular showed a high enan-tioselectivity for test chiral compounds due to good solubility in a polar polysiloxane (OV-1701). Enantioselectivity obtained with TBDE-β-CD was compared with that of 6-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-2,3-di-O-methyl-β-cyclodextrin (TBDM-β-CD). Better enantiose-lectivity was obtained with TBDE-P-CD than with TBDM-β-CD for the test chiral compounds studied. This is probably due to greater effect of the increased hydrophobicity of TBDE-β-CD which favors inclusion of the analytes than the effect of increased steric hindrance. With TBDP-β-CD the less polar lactones are well separated due most likely to increased hydrophobicity of the propyl groups while the more polar are not well resolved. For TBDP-β-CD it is likely that the unfavorable steric hindrance is predominant over the favorable hydrophobicity of the propyl groups, thus hindering the formation of inclusion complexes of the alcohols with TBDP-β-CD. TBDE-α-CD was also a valuable chiral selector for the separation of small chiral molecules such as simple secondary alcohols and nitro-substituted alcohols.     

Separation of enantiomers of ephedrine by capillary electrophoresis using cyclodextrins as chiral selectors: comparative CE, NMR and high resolution MS studies

The enantiomer migration order (EMO) of ephedrine was investigated in the presence of various CDs in CE. The molecular mechanisms of chiral recognition were followed for the ephedrine complexes with native α- and β-CD and heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetyl-6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HDAS-β-CD) by CE, NMR spectroscopy and high-resolution MS. Minor structural differences were observed between the complexes of ephedrine with α- and β-CD although the migration order of enantiomers was opposite when these two CDs were applied as chiral selectors in CE. The EMO was also opposite between β-CD and HDAS-β-CD. Significant structural differences were observed between ephedrine complexes with the native CDs and HDAS-β-CD. The latter CD was advantageous as chiral CE selector not only due to its opposite electrophoretic mobility compared with that of the cationic chiral analyte, but also primarily due to its enhanced chiral recognition ability towards the enantiomers of ephedrine.     

Preparation of a novel cyclodextrin derivative of benzimido-β-cyclodextrin and its enantioseparation performance in HPLC

A novel cyclodextrin (CD) derivative, mono-6-deoxy-benzimide-β-CD (MB-β-CD), in which a rigid substituent was linked to the narrow edge of the CD with a flexible H(2)C-N group, was successfully synthesized through the condensation of mono-6-deoxy-6-amino-β-cyclodextrin and benzaldehyde. To evaluate its enantioseparation abilities and investigate the role of the CD substituents and linkage in chiral recognition, MB-β-CD and mono-6-deoxyphenylimine-β-CD (MP-β-CD) with a rigid linkage were compared in the separation of 36 chiral compounds in a methanol/water mobile phase. The separation results showed that most of the analytes with rigid structures afforded better enantioresolutions on the MP-β-CD (with a rigid linkage) chiral stationary phase (CSP), while better enantioseparations for analytes with flexible structures and big steric hindrance were obtained on the MB-β-CD (with a flexible linkage) CSP. The former exhibited a specificity for the analyte structures, while the latter was more adaptable. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to further understand the discrimination process and the function of the CD side arm.     

Optimized Conditions of Enantioseparation of β-Blockers by CZE Using Carboxymethyl-β-Cyclodextrin as Chiral Selector

Capillary zone electrophoresis was used for the enantiomeric separation of six β-blocking drug substances with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its derivatives as chiral selectors employing an uncoated capillary. The effects of pH value and composition of the background electrolyte (BGE), the capillary temperature and running voltage have been investigated. The results showed that β-CD type, concentration and pH value have a strong influence on the efficiency of the chiral separation. Carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin (CM-β-CD) gave a baseline enantiomeric separation for six β-blocking drug substances under optimal conditions, whereas the β-CD, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) showed no chiral recognition. The potential and capillary temperature did not have a great effect on enantiomer resolution.     

Enantioseparation Of Aromatic Dipeptides Using Carboxymethyl-β-Cyclodextrin Polymer As Chiral Selector By Capillary Electrophoresis

ABSTRACT

Chiral separation of peptides is of interest because of the different biological activity of enantiomers. In this report, several underivatized dipeptides with benzene moieties were optically resolved by employing carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin polymer(CM-β-CD polymer) as chiral selector. The effects of different cyclodextrin types, selector concentration, buffer pH, and organic additive were examined. Selector concentration and buffer pH played significant roles in resolution. Enantioseparation was found to be negatively influenced by adding the organic additive into running buffer and even completely lost at the organic additive content of 16%. It was also noted that the dipeptides with short chain in the vicinity of the second chiral carbon atom showed better chiral resolution by using CM-β-CD polymer than by using either carboxyethyl-β-CD or succinylated-β-CD. Simultaneous chiral separation of a mixture of DL-Ala-DL-Phe and DL-Leu-DL-Phe was also obtained using 27 mg/ml CM-β-CD polymer in the running buffer at pH5.12.     

Separation of enantiomers of norephedrine by capillary electrophoresis using cyclodextrins as chiral selectors: comparative CE and NMR studies

In this study, the enantiomer migration order (EMO) of norephedrine (NEP) in the presence of various CDs was investigated by CE. NMR and CE techniques were used to analyze the mechanism of the chiral recognition between NEP enantiomers and four CDs, i.e., native α-CD, β-CD, heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetyl-6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HDAS-β-CD), and heptakis(2,3-di-O-methyl-6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HDMS-β-CD). EMO was reversed in the presence of α-CD and β-CD, although only minor differences in the structures of the complexes formed between NEP and these CDs could be derived from rotating frame nuclear Overhauser experiments (ROESY). The complexes between the enantiomers of NEP and the sulfated CDs, HDMS-β-CD, and HDAS-β-CD, were substantially different. However, EMO of NEP was identical in the presence of these CDs. HDAS-β-CD proved to be the most suitable chiral selector for the CE enantioseparation of NEP.

Enantioseparation of β-substituted tryptophan analogues with modified cyclodextrins by capillary zone electrophoresis

Direct capillary zone electrophoretic methods were developed for the separation of the enantiomers of unnatural β-substituted tryptophan analogues such as erythro- and threo-β-methyl-, β-2-propyl-, β-3-pentyl-, β-phenyl- and β-2,5-dimethoxyphenyltryptophan. Cyclodextrins (CDs) were chosen as chiral selectors because of their favorable properties (stability, commercial availability, low cost, UV transparency, inertness, etc.). Capillary zone electrophoresis was carried out using sulfopropylated-α-CD (SP2-α-CD), sulfopropylated-β-CD (SP2-β-CD) both with a degree of substitution of 2 moles/mole cyclodextrin, and sulfopropylated-β-CD (SP4-β-CD) with a degree of substitution of 4 moles/mole β-cyclodextrin. With this technique all compounds investigated are baseline resolved using different background electrolytes and chiral additives. The elution sequence was determined in all cases.     

Enantioselective resolution of chiral aromatic acids by biphasic recognition chiral extraction

This paper reports a new chiral separation technology—biphasic recognition chiral extraction for the separation of aromatic acid enantiomers such as α-cyclohexyl-mandelic acid (CHMA) and naproxen (NAP). The biphasic recognition chiral extraction system was established by adding hydrophobic d(l)-isobutyl tartrate in 1,2-dichloroethane organic phase and hydrophilic β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) derivative in aqueous phase, which preferentially recognize the (R)-enantiomer and (S)-enantiomer, respectively. These studies involve an enantioselective extraction in a biphasic system, where aromatic acid enantiomers form complexes with the β-cyclodextrin derivative in the aqueous phase and d(l)-isobutyl tartrate in the organic phase, respectively. Factors affecting the extraction mechanism are analyzed, namely the influence of the concentrations of the extractants and aromatic acid enantiomers, the types of the extractants, pH, and temperature. The experimental results show that the biphasic recognition chiral extraction is of much stronger chiral separation ability than the monophasic recognition chiral extraction, which utilizes the cooperations of the forces of the tartrate and the β-CD derivative. Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), hydroxyethyl-β-cyclodextrin (HE-β-CD), and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (ME-β-CD) have stronger recognition abilities for the (S)-aromatic acid enantiomers than those for (R)-aromatic acid enantiomers, among which HP-β-CD has the strongest ability. d-Isobutyl tartrate preferentially recognizes (R)-CHMA and (S)-NAP, while l-isobutyl tartrate preferentially recognizes (S)-CHMA and (R)-NAP. The maximum enantioselectivities of CHMA and NAP are 2.49 and 1.65, under conditions at which the pH values of the aqueous phases are 2.7 and 2.5, at the ratio of 2:1 of [isobutyl tartrate] to [HP-β-CD].     

On the use of dispersed nanoparticles modified with single layer beta-cyclodextrin as chiral selecor to enhance enantioseparation of clenbuterol with capillary electrophoresis

A new strategy for chiral separation by capillary electrophoresis employing modified-nanoparticles as chiral selector is described for clenbuterol analysis. Nanoparticles modified with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) form a large surface area platform to serve as a pseudostationary chiral phase, which can be applied for the enhancement of the enantioseparation. The application of four kinds of nanoparticles was investigated (multi-walled nanotubes (MWNTs), polystyrene (PS), TiO₂ and Al₂O₃) modified with single layer β-CD as chiral selector in the enantioseparation of clenbuterol by capillary electrophoresis (CE). Successful clenbuterol enantioseparation could be achieved with the β-CD-modified MWNTs as chiral selector. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the β-CD modification of the nanoparticles. The effects of nanoparticles, surfactant, chiral selector (β-CD) and run buffer were studied in relation to the enantiomeric separation of clenbuterol. This study opens attractive perspectives for the use of modified nanoparticles for chiral separational purposes in CE.

Use of polystyrene nanoparticles to enhance enantiomeric separation of propranolol by capillary electrophoresis with Hp-beta-CD as chiral selector

We describe the use of polystyrene (PS) nanoparticles to manipulate chiral selectivity of propranolol analysis by capillary electrophoresis, by dispersing PS nanoparticles into the run buffer employing hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) as chiral selector. Distinct separational differences are observed between the buffer containing PS nanoparticles and buffer without, when changing separating conditions including PS nanoparticles concentration, pH, buffer concentration, HP-β-CD concentration and when adding an organic additive. Selectivity improvements are reflected by changes in the observed mobility as a result of interactions between the propranolol enantiomers and HP-β-CD governing the absorption process on the PS particles surface. The presence of PS nanoparticles increases the enantioseparation at low particle concentration in the presence of HP-β-CD as a chiral selector.     

Direct Thin – Layer Chromatographic Separation of Enantiomers of Six selected Amino Acids Using 2-O-[(R)-2-Hydroxypropyl]-β-CD as a Mobile Phase Additive

Abstract

Compared with β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD), 2-O-[_(R)-2-hydroxypropyl]-β-CD (A) is more sensitive for chiral recognition. When (A) was used as the chiral mobile phase additive, some racemic amino acids were directly separated on silica gel TLC for the first time.     

Borate Complexation and Mixed Cyclodextrin Additives for Chiral Separation of Propranolol and Its Metabolites by Capillary Electrophoresis

A buffer system of borate with charged (carboxymethyl-β-CD) and uncharged (β-CD) cyclodextrins (CDs) was employed in the chiral resolution and separation of propranolol and its selected major metabolites. By appropriate choice of buffer and additive conditions, chiral resolution of all of the compounds studied was achieved in a single analysis, where near baseline resolution was found for the difficult to resolve propranolol-glycol (Pr-glycol). This has not been observed in previous studies of propranolol and its metabolites.     

Enantiomeric analysis of rivastigmine in pharmaceuticals by cyclodextrin-modified capillary zone electrophoresis

Chiral separation method development is usually very time-consuming due to the diversity in chemical structures of pharmaceutical drug substances as well as the suitable separation conditions and the problem to choose the appropriate chiral selector. This paper shows capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) which was developed for chiral separation of a basic compound - rivastigmine (RIV) using 30 cm × 50 μm i.d. polyacrylamide (PAA)-coated fused-silica capillary (effective length 20 cm), amine-modified phosphate buffer of pH 2.5 and sulfated-β-CD (S-β-CD) as chiral selector. Other selected native or derivatized cyclodextrins (CDs) were also tested: β-CD (5, 30 mM), carboxymethyl-β-CD (5, 30 mM), dimethyl-β-CD (15 mM), hydroxypropyl-β-CD (5, 30 mM), hydroxypropyl-α-CD (5, 30 mM) and hydroxypropyl-γ-CD (5, 30 mM). Complete enantiomeric separation of RIV was achieved at 20 kV, 18 °C and detection at 200 nm within 8 min with R.S.D. for the absolute migration time reproducibility of less than 2.1%. Rectilinear calibration range was 5.0-500.0 μM of each enantiomer (r = 0.9994-0.9995). The CZE method proposed was used for the control of chiral purity of pharmaceutically active S-RIV and for the analysis of Exelon caps preparation.
