Resolution of amine enantiomers using precolumn derivatization with dansyl-L-proline and reversed-phase liquid chromatography

A derivatization procedure was developed for converting enantiomeric amino acids, amino alcohols and amines into diastereoisomers for resolution by liquid chromatography. Dansyl-L-proline (DLP) was used as a chiral reagent for the precolumn derivatization of many enantiomeric compounds bearing primary and secondary amino groups. The diastereoisomeric amides that were formed in the presence of diethyl phosphorocyanidate can be resolved efficiently on a conventional reversed-phase column. The resolution was optimized by varying the mobile phase. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding of the diastereoisomeric amide is shown to be very important for the efficient resolution of enantiomers. The detection limits for DLP derivatives were 4 × 10^?14?5 × 10^?14 mol.

Simultaneous determination of mycophenolic acid and valproic acid based on derivatization by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection

A reliable and validated reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method using fluorescence detection is reported for the simultaneous quantitation of mycophenolic acid (MPA) and valproic acid (VPA) in human plasma. The method is based on the pre-column derivatization of valproic acid with 4-bromomethyl-6, 7-dimethoxycoumarin (BrMMC) and online solvatochromism of MPA by pH adjustment. The linear calibration range was 0.50-30 microg/mL for MPA and 5.00-150 microg/mL for VPA. The relative standard deviations of the method of intra- and inter-day analyses (n = 6) were below 6.5 and 6.7% for MPA, and 5.8 and 6.3% for VPA, respectively. Dichloromethane was used for the simultaneous extraction of MPA and VPA from acidified plasma. This reliable method can be applied in the analysis of MPA and VPA in human plasma using only a small volume (100 microL).     

Automated precolumn derivatization system for analyzing physiological amino acids by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry

An automated method for high‐throughput amino acid analysis, using precolumn derivatization high‐performance liquid chromatography/electrospray mass spectrometry (HPLC/ESI‐MS), was developed and evaluated. The precolumn derivatization step was performed in the reaction port of a home‐built auto‐sampler system. Amino acids were derivatized with 3‐aminopyridyl‐N‐hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate, and a 3 μm Wakosil‐II 3C8‐100HG column (100 × 2.1 mm i.d.) was used for separation. To achieve a 13 min cycle for each sample, the derivatization and separation steps were performed in parallel. The results of the method evaluation, including the linearity, and the intra‐ and inter‐precision, were sufficient to measure physiological amino acids in human plasma samples. The relative standard deviations of typical amino acids in actual human plasma samples were below 10%. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

High-performance liquid chromatography with sequential injection for online precolumn derivatization of some heavy metals

HPLC was coupled with sequential injection (SI) for simultaneous analyses of some heavy metals, including Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Fe(II). 2-(5-Nitro-2-pyridylazo)-5-[N-propyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl)amino]phenol (nitro-PAPS) was employed as a derivatizing reagent for sensitive spectrophotometric detection by online precolumn derivatization. The SI system offers an automated handling of sample and reagent, online precolumn derivatization, and propulsion of derivatives to the HPLC injection loop. The metal-nitro-PAPS complexes were separated on a C(18)-muBondapak column (3.9x300 mm(2)). Using the proposed SI-HPLC system, determination of four metal ions by means of nitro-PAPS complexes was achieved within 13 min in which the parallel of derivatization and separation were processed at the same time. Linear calibration graphs were obtained in the ranges of 0.005-0.250 mg/L for Cu(II), 0.007-1.000 mg/L for Co(II), 0.005-0.075 mg/L for Ni(II), and 0.005-0.100 mg/L for Fe(II). The system provides means for automation with good precision and minimizing error in solution handling with the RSD of less than 6%. The detection limits obtained were 2 microg/L for Cu(II) and Co(II), and 1 microg/L for Ni(II) and Fe(II).

Thin-layer chromatography of low-molecular epoxy compounds after derivatization with picric acid

Summary Optimum conditions were obtained for the determination of low-molecular epoxides by a method based on derivatization with picric acid and thin-layer chromatography on silica gel. The chromatograms were visualized with solutions of primary, secondary or tertiary amines in acetone. Most of the monoepoxides gave only one spot; diepoxides gave two spots. The detection limits for highly reactive epoxy compounds (derivatization time less than 2 hours) were estimated to be approx. 0.02 μmole.     

Analysis of palytoxin-like in Ostreopsis cultures by liquid chromatography with precolumn derivatization and fluorescence detection

A rapid liquid-chromatography (LC) method is presented which uses fluorescence detection (FLD) for palytoxin analogues analysis in benthic dinoflagellates of the genus Ostreopsis. The amino-acidic reagent 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxisuccinimidyl carbamate (AccQ) was used for fluorescence labelling followed by LC-FLD.The efficacy of the method is exemplified by comparison of the results of the quantification obtained by LC-FLD and the hemolytic assay performed for palytoxins for which a highly significant linear correlation was achieved (r² = 0.9118). The derivatized palytoxin analogues were determined in the range of 0.75-25 ng.The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination and quantification of palytoxin analogues in 14 samples from different strains of Ostreopsis from different locations (Western Mediterranean Sea, Canary Islands, Madeira Islands and Southern coasts of Brazil). To confirm the chemical structure of the toxins, samples were also analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with a system that has a poorer sensitivity when compared with LC-FLD detection and the hemolytic assay. The successful use of this method with dinoflagellates is a good indicator of suitability for other types of marine samples.     

Determination of polyamines in human urine by precolumn derivatization with benzoyl chloride and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with Q-time-of-flight mass spectrometry

A simple and sensitive HPLC/Q-TOF MS method for simultaneous determination of 1,3-diaminopropane, putrescine, cadaverine, spermidine, spermine and acetyl-spermine in human urine was developed in electrospray-ionization source by positive ion mode. The samples were firstly pretreated by 10% HClO₄ and then derivatized by benzoyl chloride with 1,6-diaminohexane as internal standard. The derived polyamines were separated on a C₁₈ column by a gradient elution with methanol-water, and then sensitively detected with Q-TOF MS. The limits of detection for polyamines ranged from 0.02 to 1.0 ng ml⁻¹ with excellent linearity within the range from 1 to 1000 ng ml⁻¹ except acetyl-spermine from 5 to 1000 ng ml⁻¹. The intra- and inter-day R.S.D. for all polyamines were 2.0-14.7% and 3.9-12.9%, respectively. The method was applied to determine the polyamines in human urine from 10 cancer patients and 15 healthy volunteers. Results showed that the mean levels of polyamines in urine of patients were all higher than those in healthy volunteers. The cluster analysis was used to establish the distinction mode between cancer sufferers and healthy individuals.
