Preparation of novel beta-cyclodextrin chiral stationary phase based on click chemistry

A facile strategy based on click chemistry for preparation of the structurally well-defined native beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) based chiral stationary phase (CSP) was proposed. The beta-CD CSP was evaluated by enatioseparation of benzoin, trans-stilbene oxide, Troger's base, bendroflumethiazide, ketoprofen, chlorthalidone, three flavanone compounds and two beta-adrenergic blocking agents under reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. The chromatographic results demonstrate the chiral separation ability of click beta-CD CSP and illustrate the usefulness of click chemistry in the preparation of beta-CD based CSP.     

Group separation of organic nitrates on a new nitric acid ester NP-LC stationary phase

Summary The synthesis of a nitric acid ester NP-LC stationary phase (organonitrate phase), by nitrating a commercial polyol phase (Serva, Polyol Si 100, 5 μm) with mixed sulfuric-and nitric acid, is reported. The nitric acid ester bond is quite stable towards hydrolysis. To examine its possible use as a stationary phase for the group separation of alkyl nitrates, several bifunctional polar alkyl nitrates (di-nitrates, hydroxy-nitrates, keto-nitrates) have been synthesized. In order to simplify their names a new abbreviating nomenclature for multifunctional organic nitrates is presented. With our new stationary phase it is possible to separate mono-, di-, and hydroxy-nitrates as groups completely, a major advantage in sample preparation in the chemistry of smog formation. However a co-elution of di- and keto-nitrates is observed. A distinction of the latter two organonitrate groups is possible by gas chromatography-mass spectrometric detection (MSD). Apart from the fragment ion NO₂ ⁺ (m/z=46 amu), which is nearly specific for alkyl nitrates, aliphatic di- and keto-nitrates show different characteristic fragment ions.     

New stationary phases for normal-phase HPLC based on silica gel modified with cobalt,nickel, zinc,and cadmium salts

Several new stationary phases for normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography were synthesized by the modification of silica gel with cobalt, nickel, zinc, and cadmium salts and subsequent calcination at 700°C. These sorbents exhibit an increase in the retention of organic compounds of the basic character, an increase in the selectivity of separation, and an eightfold increase in efficiency in comparison with initial silica gel. The experimental results were explained on the basis of the interpretation of the IR spectra of pyridine adsorbed on the synthesized and initial silica gel. It was demonstrated that the surface of silica gel modified with cadmium ions exhibits the highest acidity. The advantage of the synthesized sorbents was demonstrated with the example of the separation of fullerenes containing diethylamino and hydroxy groups.__________Translated from Zhurnal Analiticheskoi Khimii, Vol. 60, No. 4, 2005, pp. 412–416.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Pirogov, Kuzavlev, Shpigun.     

HPLC analysis of organic acids using a novel stationary phase

In the present work, a high performance liquid chromatographic method with UV detection for the separation of six organic acids including, tartaric, malic, acetic, lactic, citric and succinic is described.The separation was performed on a novel stationary phase TEKNOKROMA, Tr-010065 Mediterranea sea₁₈ (15 cm × 0.4 cm, i.d. 3 μm) and using water with a 0.1% (v/v) of formic acid as mobile phase. The advantages of this packing over a conventional octadecylsilane (ODS2) column are reported.The method was validated with respect to linearity, limits of detection and repeatabilities within day and between days and satisfactory results were obtained.The proposed method was applied for the determination of these compounds in commercially available white wines. The samples were injected directly without previous treatment. LC-MS was used as a confirmatory technique.     

Silicalite as a stationary phase for HPLC

A molecular sieve known as Silicalite was used as the column packing for HPLC. Silicalite contains channels (or cavities) approximately 6 Å in diameter but, unlike most other molecular sieves, Silicalite is hydrophobic. The retention times of methyl ketones and substituted phenols containing n-alkyl groups increase with increasing chain length of the substituent. However, phenols with very bulky substituents appear to be excluded from the Silicalite channels and elute very quickly. Excellent separations were obtained for a number of compounds with only slight differences in chemical structure. These include phenol isomers with a primary- or secondary alkyl group, position isomers of substituted phenols, and aliphatic cis-trans isomers.     

New stationary phases for normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (NP-HPLC)

3-(2,3-Dihydroxy-propoxy)-propyl-silica (diolsilica) was modified to bonded stationary phases for normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (NPLC) carrying phosphorous ester, boronic ester, and nitric acid ester groups. The NPLC phases were investigated with respect to their properties towards separations of polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and chlorinated and nitrated environmental pollutants. Aminopropyl-silica and nitrooxy-propyl-silica (the latter synthesized in our working group) are presented for comparison. Depending on the functionality used for the modification the retention behavior can significantly be changed towards the three analyte classes. Especially 2,2,2-tribromoethyl-phosphoromorpholino-chloridate modified diol-silica, 2,2,2-tribromoethyl-dichlorophosphate modified diol-silica and nitrated diol-silica (nitrooxy-propoxypropyl-silica) show specific properties for the separation of polyaromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated analytes and nitrated analytes. Preparation and packing of the adsorbents are described. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is used as a chemometric tool for effective data reduction and visualization of the results in terms of retention behavior of the stationary phases.

Separation of the two enantiomers of T-3811ME by normal-phase HPLC using modified amylose as chiral stationary phase

A normal-phase enantioselective high-performance liquid chromatographic method is developed for the separation of the undesired enantiomer from T-3811ME and quantitaion of the undesired enantiomer at low levels using a Chiralpak AD-H column (4.6 x 150 mm) packed with modified amylose stationary phase. The 2% water-modified 2-propanol is used for the method development activities, including exploration of various organic modifiers, optimization of additive acid concentration, column screening, and column temperature optimization. The final optimized method separated the undesired enantiomer from T-3811ME and is proven to be robust, sensitive, linear, accurate, and precise.     

Properties of microdispersed sintered nanodiamonds as a stationary phase for normal-phase high performance liquid chromatography

The chromatographic properties of microdispersed sintered nanodiamonds (MSND) are studied under conditions of normal-phase HPLC. The retention characteristics of 30 substances representing four classes of aromatic compounds including monoalkylbenzenes, polymethylbenzenes, di-n-alkyl phthalates and polyaromatic hydrocarbons in n-alkane mobile phases have been measured. The selectivity of MSND was compared with literature data for other common adsorbents including silica gel, alumina and porous graphitic carbon (PGC). MSND shows the distinctive adsorption properties especially in a stronger retention of aromatic hydrocarbons and in the better selectivity of the separation of geometric isomers. The significant improvement in separation efficiency up to 45,300 theoretical plates per meter, was achieved for the first time for the columns packed with diamond related materials (DRM).     

Interaction of water-soluble vitamins with a new HPLC stationary phase based on zinc phthalocyanate

The adsorption of water-soluble vitamins on the surface of Diaspher-110-C₁₈ sorbent modified with zinc octa-4,5-carboxyphthalocyanate is studied. Adsorption isotherms are constructed and calculated by the Glücauf method at 20°C. It is established that the shape of the isotherms depends on the nature of vitamins and their structure: the isotherm of vitamin C is a Henry-type isotherm, the isotherms of vitamins B₃ and B₆ are of S-type, and the isotherm of vitamin PP-amide is of L-type. Monolayer capacities, adsorption equilibrium constants, and Gibbs energy changes are calculated.     

New stationary phase for anion-exchange chromatography

This work describes the preparation of an anion-exchange phase based on silica, using a two-step modification process. First, 10 microm Davisil silica particles were silanized with chloropropyltrimethoxysilane to yield chloropropyl silica. The modified silica was then reacted with pyridine to produce positively charged propylpyridinium groups on the surface, the anion-exchange sites. The phase was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and infrared and solid state 13C and 29Si NMR spectroscopies. HPLC separations of common inorganic anions, including chloride, nitrite, bromide and nitrate, were performed using 150 x 3.9 HPLC columns packed with the phase, using a phthalate buffer solution as mobile phase with non-suppressed conductivity detection. Efficiency and resolution were calculated and the results show that the new phase has significant promise for the analysis of these anions in environmental samples.     

Separation of chiral phosphorus compounds on the substituted P-cyclodextrin stationary phase in normal-phase liquid chromatog-raphy

The separation of enantiomers of a series of eighteen novel nitrogen mustard linked phosphoryl diamide derivatives was investigated on the prepared phenyl carbamate derivative β-cy-clodextrin bonded phase in normal-phase HPLC. Some of the enantiomers could be separated in baseline. The chiral recognition mechanism was also suggested for the separation of chiral phosphorus organic compounds.     

Thermodynamic study of N-trifluoroacetyl-O-alkyl nipecotic acid ester enantiomers on diluted permethylated beta-cyclodextrin stationary phase

Thermodynamic studies were performed on 12 pairs of N-trifluoroacetyl-O-alkyl nipecotic acid ester enantiomers on diluted permethylated beta-cyclodextrin stationary phase (CP Chirasil-Dex CB). The influence of ester alkyl group structure on interaction with permethylated beta-cyclodextrin (Me-CD) and enantioselectivity was studied. The types of alkyl groups studied included n-alkyl (C1-C5) and groups containing branching at differing locations relative to the chiral center of the molecule. The results show that for a given molecular weight, the n-alkyl esters have stronger interactions with Me-CD than esters containing branched alkyl groups. However, although having weaker interactions with Me-CD, esters containing alpha-branched alkyl groups exhibit higher enantioselectivity than the corresponding n-alkyl or beta-branched isobutyl esters. From the retention data, thermodynamic parameters were estimated using the retention increment method and enthalpy-entropy compensation plots (ln R' versus deltaH) were constructed. The results suggest that ester enantiomers with branching at the alpha-carbon of the ester alkyl group have additional and/or different types of enantioselective interactions with Me-CD than the C1-C5 n-alkyl esters or beta-branched isobutyl ester. In order to obtain a qualitative sense of the interaction with Me-CD, structures of the diastereomeric complexes formed between Me-CD and some of the ester enantiomers were modeled using simulated annealing molecular dynamics.     

Chromatographic study of terpene derivatives on porous graphitic carbon stationary phase with beta-cyclodextrin as mobile phase modifier

The stoichiometric coefficients and apparent formation constants (Kf) of alpha-terpineol, thymol, geraniol and linalool complexes with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) were determined using HPLC with a porous graphitic carbon (PGC) chromatographic support. Measurements were performed with four different methanol-water mobile phases. All the terpene derivatives under study form 1:1 guest-CD complexes. Graphs of Kf as a function of the mobile phase composition appeared different from those classically described for RP-C18 and suggest that the PGC stationary phase could play an active role in the complexation process. Solute-CD inclusion and solute-stationary phase interactions may be involved in this specific behavior.     

Perphenylcarbamoylated beta-cyclodextrin bonded-silica particles as chiral stationary phase for enantioseparation by pressure-assisted capillary electrochromatography

Perphenylcarbamoylated beta-cyclodextrin bonded-silica particles (5 microm) were packed into 75-mum fused-silica capillaries, and used for the enantiomer separation of neutral and basic solutes by pressure-assisted capillary electrochromatography. Triethylammonium acetate and phosphate buffer were employed as the BGEs. A cathodic EOF was observed with these two BGEs. Seven chiral analytes were successfully resolved into their enantiomers under optimized conditions, and five of them could be baseline-separated within 12 min due to their high electrophoretic mobility. Better results were achieved with phosphate buffer as the BGE. The effects of organic content and pH on the enantioseparation were also investigated.     

Surface confined ionic liquid as a stationary phase for HPLC

Trimethoxysilane "ionosilane" derivatives of room temperature ionic liquids based on alkylimidazolium bromides were synthesized for attachment to silica support material. The derivatives 1-methyl-3-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium bromide and 1-butyl-3-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium bromide were used to modify the surface of 3 microm diameter silica particles to act as the stationary phase for HPLC. The modified particles were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and (13)C and (29)Si NMR spectroscopies. The surface modification procedure rendered particles with a surface coverage of 0.84 micromol m(-2) for the alkylimidazolium bromide. The ionic liquid moiety was predominantly attached to the silica surface through two siloxane bonds of the ionosilane derivative (63%). Columns packed with the modified silica material were tested under HPLC conditions. Preliminary evaluation of the stationary phase for HPLC was performed using aromatic carboxylic acids as model compounds. The separation mechanism appears to involve multiple interactions including ion exchange, hydrophobic interaction, and other electrostatic interactions.     

beta-Cyclodextrin as a stationary phase for the group separation of polycyclic aromatic compounds in normal-phase liquid chromatography

The separation of highly alkylated polycyclic aromatic compounds according to the size of their aromatic system is investigated using the polycyclic aromatic sulfur heterocycles in vacuum gas oil. A large number of reference compounds containing several parent ring systems and different alkylation patterns were first investigated to characterize the retention of polycyclic aromatic compounds likely to occur in high-boiling petroleum samples. A beta-cyclodextrin phase, Merck ChiraDex, was found to be more suitable than chemically bonded aminopropanosilane and tetrachlorophthalimide in normal-phase HPLC with respect to a combination of selectivity towards the number of aromatic double bonds and degree of influence of the alkyl groups of the aromatic compounds. Finally the preseparated polycyclic aromatic sulfur heterocycles from a vacuum gas oil were fractionated according to the number of condensed aromatic rings on the ChiraDex phase and were characterized by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry.     

Chromatographic characterization of a bonded liquid crystal stationary phase for HPLC

Summary A chromatographic and thermodynamic study of the compound [4-(allyloxy)benzoyl]-4-methoxyphenyl (ABMP) as a model of a chemically bonded liquid crystal stationary phase for HPLC was undertaken. A number of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and two small solutes, carvone and pulegone, were studied under varying solvent and temperature conditions. Plots of log k vs. % organic in the mobile phase were not completely linear in all cases. The van't Hoff plots revealed at least one phase transition. The enthalpies of solute transfer from the mobile phase to the ABMP phase were determined for several PAHs. All tests indicate that ABMP possess liquid crystal properties when bonded to particulate silica.     

Enantioselective determination of bromoisovalerylurea by liquid chromatography on chiral stationary phase in reversed- or normal-phase partition mode

Bromoisovalerylurea (bromvalerylurea) is a sedative-hypnotic given orally as a racemate. Enantiomers of this drug could be separated by high-performance liquid chromatography on the three chiral stationary phases (a vancomycin-bonded, beta-cyclodextrin derivative-bonded, or urea derivative-bonded phase). Biological fluids of human subjects who had ingested toxic or therapeutic doses of the racemate were chromatographed after liquid-liquid extraction. The (+)-enantiomer concentration was almost equal to the (-)-enantiomer concentration in the serum of one overdosed patient. In all the other subjects, the (+)-enantiomer was less than the (-)-enantiomer in their sera and saliva. The data suggest that the drug is absorbed non-stereoselectively from the gastrointestinal tract and eliminated from the blood stereoselectively.
