Microfluidic chip capillary electrophoresis coupled with electrochemiluminescence for enantioseparation of racemic drugs using central composite design optimization

Optimization based on central composite design (CCD) for enantioseparation of anisodamine (AN), atenolol (AT), and metoprolol (ME) in human urine was developed using a microfluidic chip‐CE device. Coupling the flexible and wide working range of microfluidic chip‐CE device to CCD for chiral separation of AN, AT, and ME in human urine, a total of 15 experiments is needed for the optimization procedure as compared to 75 experiments using the normal one variable at a time optimization. The optimum conditions obtained are found to be more robust as shown by the curvature effects of the interaction factors. The developed microfluidic chip‐CE‐ECL system with adjustable dilution ratios has been validated by satisfactory recoveries (89.5–99% for six enanotiomers) in urine sample analysis. The working range (0.3–600 μM), repeatability (3.1–4.9% RSD for peak height and 4.0–5.2% RSD for peak area), and detection limit (0.3–0.6 μM) of the method developed are found to meet the requirements for bedside monitoring of AN, AT, and ME in patients under critical conditions. In summary, the hyphenation of CCD with the microfluidic chip‐CE device is shown to offer a rapid means for optimizing the working conditions on simultaneous separation of three racemic drugs using the microfluidic chip‐CE device developed.

An efficient, practical, and high yielding synthesis of (R)-2-methylpyrrolidine is described. The sequence allows for the scalable preparation of the target compound in just four synthetic steps and proceeds in 83% overall yield and >99% optical purity from readily available starting materials.     

Synthesis and Properties of 2-Alkyl-1-(2-aminoethyl)pyrroles

3-Chloropropenyl alkyl ketones or 2-methoxy-3-chloropropyl alkyl ketones in reaction withethylenediamine furnish previously unknown 2-alkyl-1-(2-aminoethyl) pyrroles. Their reaction with 2'2'-dichlorodiethyl ether gave rise to 2-alkyl-1-(2-morpholinoethyl)pyrroles, with anhydrides ofdicarboxylic acids the corresponding amidoacids and imides of dicarboxylic acids were obtained.     

Synthesis of 1-(2-aminoethyl)pyrazoles under phase-transfer catalysis

Alkylation of pyrazoles with 2-chloroethylamine was performed under conditions of phasetransfer catalysis. Depending on the substrate acidity, the electrophilic substitution process may be accompanied by dehydrochlorination of the alkylating agent, so that 6 equiv of 2-chloroethylamine should be used in the alkylation of 3,5-dimethylpyrazole.     

Synthesis of 8-(1-aminoethyl)quinoline

8-(1-Aminoethyl)quinoline, which has antimonoaminooxidase activity, was synthesized by the Leuckart reaction. Reduction of 8-acetylquinoline oxime with lithium aluminum hydride gives 8-(1-aminoethyl)-1,2-dihydroquinoline.     

Functionalization of halloysite with N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyl-trimethoxysilane

In order to increase the affinity of the halloysite mineral to 3d-metal ions, its surface was functionalized with N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. A significant influence of the nature of the solvent and silane concentration on the degree of functionalization of halloysite was revealed. According to the data of elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry, it was found that the most efficient solvents were tetrahydrofuran and acetonitrile at an equimolar silane to halloysite ratio. The functionalization of halloysite with N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropylsilyl groups significantly increases the sorption capacity of the material in comparison with both unmodified halloysite and halloysite functionalized with non-chelating 3-aminopropylsilyl groups.

     

Direct synthesis of Cbz-protected (2-amino)-6-(2-aminoethyl)pyridines

A novel series of (2-amino)-6-(2-aminoethyl)pyridines were prepared by a convenient Suzuki-Miyaura coupling approach from 2-amino-6-bromopyridines. Benzyl vinylcarbamate was first treated with 9-BBN followed by aqueous NaOH and then the appropriate bromopyridine precursors were added into the mixture. The mixture was finally heated in presence of a palladium catalyst to provide the corresponding products in overall high yields. The procedure is extended to the preparation of related pyrazine and pyrimidine compounds as well as (2-amido)- and (2-alkoxy)-6-(2-aminoethyl)pyridines.     

Synthesis of Esters of 3-(2-Aminoethyl)-1H-indole-2-acetic Acid and 3-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-indole-2-malonic acid (= 2-[3-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-indol-2-yl]propanedioic acid) 4th communication on indoles,indolenines, and indolines

Alkyl 3-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-indole-2-acetates 6a and 6b are synthesized starting from methyl 1H-indole-2-acetate (2) via methyl 3-(2-nitroethenyl)-1H-indole-2-acetate (4) and the alkyl 3-(2-nitroethyl)-1H-indole-2-acetates 5a and (Scheme 1). Analogously, diisopropyl 3-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-indole-2-malonate 20b is obtained from diisopropyl 1H-indole-2-malonate 11c (Scheme 4). An alternative synthesis of 20a and 20b follows a route via 15–18 and the dialkyl 3-(2-azidoethyl)-1H-indole-2-malonates 19a and 19b , respectively (Scheme 3). The aminoethyl compounds 6a and 20a are easily transformed into lactams 7 and 21 , respectively. Procedures for the preparation of the indoles 2 and 11a and of the alkylating agent 14 are described. A tautomer 12 of 11a is isolated.     

Nickel(II) complex with 1,4,7-tris(2-aminoethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane

A nickel(II) complex, [Ni(taetacn)](ClO₄)₂ ? H₂O, where taetacn = 1,4,7-tris(2-aminoethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane was synthesized. The crystal structure was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method at 293 K. The complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna2₁ with a = 16.004(2) Å, b = 10.186(1) Å, c = 13.937(2) Å, V = 2271.9(5) ų, D_x = 1.56 g cm^?3, D_m = 1.59 g cm^?3 (floatation method), and Z = 4. The R₁ [I > 2σ(I)] and wR₂ (all data) values are 0.0636 and 0.1672, respectively, for all 4845 independent reflections. The compound is composed of octahedral nickel(II) cation with three 2-aminoethyl pendant groups of taetacn, tetrahedral ClO ₄ ^? anion, and a water molecule of crystallization. Electronic spectra are consistent with the octahedral geometry. Temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility (4.5–300 K) can be interpreted considering the zero-field splitting of the nickel(II) ion (g = 2.14, D = 3.72 cm^?1, and Nα = 300 × 10^?6 cm³ mol^?1). Cyclic voltammetry in DMF showed quasi-reversible and irreversible oxidation waves (E_pa = 0.54 V, E_pc = 0.45 V; E_pa = 1.16 V, E_pc = 0.71 V vs. Ag/Ag⁺).     

One-pot parallel solution-phase synthesis of 1-substituted 4-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-ols

Two variations of enaminone-based parallel solution-phase synthesis of 1-substituted 4-(2-aminoethyl)-1 H-pyrazol-5-ols 8 and their NH-tautomers 8' were developed. The synthetic strategy comprises a two step preparation of the N-protected alpha-enamino lactams 3a and 3b from 2-pyrrolidinone (1), "ring switching" transformation of 3a, b with monosubstituted hydrazines 4a-u, and acidolytic removal of the N-protecting group. In order to ensure a clean and fast conversion, reactions of Cbz-enaminone 3a with hydrazines 4a-k were carried out under microwave irradiation to afford the "ring-switched" intermediates 7a-k. Deprotection of 7a-k with HBr-AcOH at 50 degrees C gave a library of 11 analytically pure 4-(2-aminoethyl)-1 H-pyrazol-5-ols (di)hydrobromides 8/ 8'a-k in 16-75% yields over two steps. The other reagent, Boc-enaminone 3b, was more reactive and ring switching transformations with hydrazines 4b, d, k proceeded smoothly and cleanly under conventional heating. Finally, a parallel one-pot transformation of the Boc-enaminone 3b with hydrazines 4a-u followed by subsequent deprotection of the intermediates 9a-u with HCl-EtOAc furnished a library of 21 analytically pure 4-(2-aminoethyl)-1 H-pyrazol-5-ols (di)hydrochlorides 8/ 8'a-u in 40-100% yields.     

Approaches to (R)- and (S)-1′-(1-aminoethyl)ferrocene-1-carboxylic acid derivatives

Lipase-catalyzed esterification of (±)-methyl 1′-(1-hydroxyethyl)ferrocene-1-carboxylate 4 afforded its (R)-acetate (−)-5 (ee = 99%) and (S)-(+)-4 (ee = 90%). Stereoretentive azidation/amination/acetylation of (R)-(−)-5 gave (R)-(+)-methyl 1′-(1-acetamidoethyl)ferrocene-1-carboxylate (R)-3 (ee = 98%). In a similar manner (S)-(+)-4 was converted into (S)-(−)-3 (ee = 84%). Both enantiomers of 3 were obtained in high chemical yields without a loss of enantiomeric purity. The title compounds can be coupled with natural amino acids and peptides on both C- and N-termini.

Synthetic route to 4-(2-aminoethyl)-5-hydroxyindole derivatives

In synthetic studies leading to the title compounds, application of the Claisen rearrangement of 5-allyloxyindole was investigated. Almost quantitative yields of Claisen rearrangement product were realized, and a strategy for oxidative cleavage of the allyl double bond to an indole-4-acetaldehyde derivative was developed. A new method for conversion of 2,3-dihydroindoles into indoles was utilized: air oxidation in a strongly basic environment. The Claisen rearrangement of allyloxyindoles is presented as a method having considerable potential utility in synthesis of a variety of polysubstituted indoles.     

A simple synthesis of 4-(2-aminoethyl)-5-hydroxy-1H-pyrazoles

A simple four-step synthesis of 4-(2-aminoethyl)-5-hydroxy-1H-pyrazoles 8 (or their 1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-one tautomers 8′) as the pyrazole analogues of histamine was developed. First, enamino lactam 3 was prepared as the key intermediate in two steps from 2-pyrrolidinone (1). Next, acid-catalysed ‘ring switching’ transformations of 3 with monosubstituted hydrazines 4 gave N-[(1-substituted 5-hydroxy-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)ethyl]benzamides 7a-k and N-[2-(2-heteroaryl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)ethyl]benzamides 7′l-o. Benzamides 7a-k and 7′l-o were finally hydrolysed by heating in 6 M hydrochloric acid to furnish 1-substituted 4-(2-aminoethyl)-5-hydroxy-1H-pyrazoles 8a-k and 4-(2-aminoethyl)-2-heteroaryl-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-ones 8′l-o in good overall yields.     

Biosensor for total cholesterol estimation using N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane self-assembled monolayer

Cholesterol oxidase (ChOx), cholesterol esterase (ChEt), and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) have been co-immobilized covalently on a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AEAPTS) deposited on an indium–tin–oxide (ITO) glass surface. These enzyme-modified (ChOx-ChEt-HRP/AEAPTS/ITO) biosensing electrodes have been used to estimate cholesteryl oleate from 10 to 500 mg dL⁻¹. The sensitivity, K _m value, and shelf-life of these ChEt-ChOx-HRP/AEAPTS/ITO biosensing electrodes have been found to be 124 nA mg⁻¹ dL, 95.098 mg dL⁻¹ (1.46 mmol L⁻¹), and ten weeks, respectively. The ChEt-ChOx-HRP/AEAPTS/ITO bio-electrodes have been used to estimate total cholesterol in serum samples.

Detection of carbohydrates using new labeling reagent 1-(2-naphthyl)-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone by capillary zone electrophoresis with absorbance (UV)

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was used to screen the interaction between a variety of affinity ligands and hemagglutinin (HA) from human influenza virus, with the aim of identifying low affinity ligands useful for the development of a rapid bioanalytical sensor. Three sialic acid-based structures and four lectins were evaluated as sensor ligands. The sialic acid-based ligands included a natural sialic acid-containing glycoprotein, human alpha1-acid glycoprotein (alpha1-AGP), and two synthetic 6'-sialyllactose-conjugates, with varying degree of substitution. The interaction of HA with the four lectin-based ligands, concanavalin A (Con A), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), Maackia amurensis lectin (MAL), and Sambucus nigra agglutinin (SNA), showed a wide variation of affinity strengths. Affinity and kinetics data were estimated. Strong affinities were observed for Con A, WGA, alpha1-AGP, and a 6'-sialyllactose-conjugate with a high substitution degree, and low affinities were observed for MAL and a 6'-sialyllactose-conjugate with low substitution. The main objective, to identify a low affinity ligand which could be used for on-line monitoring and product quantification, was met by a 6'-sialyllactose-ovalbumin conjugate that had 0.6 mol ligand per mol carrier protein. The apparent affinity of this ligand was estimated to be 1.5+/-0.03 microM (K(D)) on the SPR surface. Vaccine process samples containing HA were analyzed in the range 10-100 microg HA mL(-1) and correlated with single-radial immunodiffusion. The coefficient of variation on the same chip was between 0.010 and 0.091.
