Synthesis and application of a novel single-isomer mono-6-deoxy-6-(3R,4R-dihydroxypyrrolidine)-β-cyclodextrin chloride as a chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis

A novel positively charged single-isomer of β-cyclodextrin, mono-6-deoxy-6-(3R,4R-dihydroxypyrrolidine)-β-CD chloride (dhypy-CDCl), was synthesized and employed as a chiral selector for the first time in capillary electrophoresis (CE) for the enantioseparation of anionic and ampholytic acids. The effects of the running buffer pH, chiral selector concentration, analyte structure and organic modifier on the enantioseparation were studied in detail. The chiral selectivity and resolution for most of the studied analytes decreased as the buffer pH increased in the range of 6.0–9.0. Increasing selector concentration led to decreased effective mobility, increased chiral selectivity and resolution for most of the studied analytes. Moreover, the hydroxyl groups located on the dihydroxypyrrolidine substituent of the dhypy-CDCl could have influence on the chiral separation.     

Computer-aided molecular modeling study of enantioseparation of iodiconazole and structurally related triadimenol analogues by capillary electrophoresis: Chiral recognition mechanism and mathematical model for predicting chiral separation

Chiral separation of iodiconazole, a new antifungal drug, and 12 new structurally related triadimenol analogues had been developed by capillary electrophoresis (CE) using hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin (HP-γ-CD) as the chiral selector. The effect of structural features of analytes on Δt and R_s was studied under the optimum separation conditions. Using molecular docking technique and binding energy calculations, the inclusion process between HP-γ-CD and enantiomers was investigated and chiral recognition mechanisms were discussed. The results suggest that hydrogen bonding between fluorine at position 4 of the phenyl group beside the chiral carbon and the hydroxyl group on the HP-γ-CD rim and face to face π–π interactions between two phenyl rings highly contributed to the enantiorecognition process between HP-γ-CD and iodiconazole. The N-methyl group beside chiral carbon also played an important role in enantiomeric separation. Additionally, the big difference in binding energy (ΔΔE) highly contributed to good separation in the presence of HP-γ-CD chiral selector, which may be a helpful initial guide for chiral selector selection and predicting the result of enantioseparation. Furthermore, the new mathematical equation established based on the results of molecular mechanics calculations exhibited good capability in predicting chiral separation of these triadimenol analogues using HP-γ-CD mediated 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.     

Evaluation of the enantioselectivity of glycogen-based dual chiral selector systems towards basic drugs in capillary electrophoresis

Several chiral reagents including cyclodextrins (CDs) and derivatives, crown ethers, proteins, chiral surfactants and polymers have been involved in dual selector systems for enantioseparation of a series of chiral compounds by capillary electrophoresis (CE). In comparison to the chiral reagents above-mentioned, there is no report concerning the use of polysaccharides in dual chiral CE system. In this paper we first investigate the enantioselectivity of polysaccharide-based dual selector systems towards some chiral drugs. During our recent work, glycogen belonging to the class of branched polysaccharides has been used as a novel chiral selector in CE. In this study, three glycogen-based dual chiral CE systems have been established for enantiomeric separations of several racemic basic drugs consisting of duloxetine, cetirizine, citalopram, sulconazole, laudanosine, amlodipine, propranolol, atenolol and nefopam. These three dual systems combined glycogen (neutral polysaccharide) with chondroitin sulfate A (CSA, ionic polysaccharide), β-CD and HP-β-CD, respectively. It was found that the dual system of glycogen/CSA exhibited good enantioselective properties toward the tested drugs. More importantly, compared to the single selector systems, synergistic effect was observed when glycogen was used with CSA for most of the analytes. This indicated the enhancement of enantioseparation observed for these analytes in glycogen/CSA system might be due to some favorable interaction effects between glycogen and CSA. Moreover, in order to evaluate the stereoselectivity of glycogen/CSA, the influences of buffer pH and selector concentration on enantioseparation of the studied drugs were also investigated.     

Enantioselective separation in capillary electrophoresis using a novel mono-6-propylammonium-β-cyclodextrin as chiral selector

The chiral resolving ability of a novel single-isomer cationic β-cyclodextrin (CD), mono-6^A-propylammonium-6^A-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin chloride (PrAMCD), as a chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis (CE) is reported in this work for the enantioseparation of hydroxy, carboxylic acids and amphoteric analytes. The effect of chiral selector concentration on the resolution was studied. Good resolutions were achieved for hydroxy acids. Optimum resolutions were obtained even at 3.5 mM CD concentration for carboxylic acids. The electrophoretic method showed good linearity and reproducibility in terms of migration times and peak areas, which should make it suitable for routine analysis. In addition, baseline chiral separation of a six-acid mixture was achieved within 20 min. PrAMCD proved to be an effective chiral selector for acidic analytes.     

Simultaneous Chiral Separation of Geometry Isomers and Enantiomers of Nateglinide by Capillary Electrophoresis with Mixture of CD Derivations as Chiral Selector

Abstract

A capillary electrophoresis (CE) method for the simultaneous separation of geometry isomers and enantiomers of nateglinide was built. Several different dyclodextrin (CD) derivatives were tested for the chiral separation of nateglinide, and it was proved that ionic CDs [i.e., carboxymethy-β-CD (CM-β-CD) and sulphonic-β-CD (S-β-CD)] could show better chiral selectivity for both geometry isomers and enantiomers than the neutral CDs. The separation of geometry of both isomers and enantiomers of nateglinide was obtained by CE in a 75-µm i.d. × 60 cm (effective length 45 cm) fused-silica capillary at 11 kV voltage, while 30 mM phosphate (pH = 8.38) acted as running buffer and a mixture of 40 mM S-β-CD + 21 mM CM-β-CD served as chiral selector. The detective wavelength was set at 254 nm.     

Enantiomeric Separation of β-Amino Alcohols by Capillary Electrophoresis Using DM-β-CD as Chiral Selector

Enantiomeric separations of several β-amino alcohol drugs, i.e., phenylephrine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, synephrine, and chlorprenaline were performed by capillary electrophoresis using DM-β-CD as a chiral selector. Five test solutes were baseline resolved in six minutes. The effects of DM-β-CD concentration, pH value, ionic strength of the buffer, and the type of β-CDs on resolution were investigated. The results indicated that DM-β-CD is suitable for enantiomeric separation of β-amino alcohols containing a phenyl group on the chiral atom. Enantiorecognition mechanisms for test solutes are also discussed.     

Enantiomeric separation of racemic clenbuterol by capillary zone electrophoresis

A method for capillary electrophoretic enantiomeric separation of a racemic clenbuterol has been established with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector. General equations and data analysis are presented to relate mobility to the equilibrium constants in simple binding equilibria and used to determine binding constants and thermodynamic parameters for host-guest complexation of clenbuterol enantiomers with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin as a selector. The effects of β-cyclodextrin type and concentration, buffer type, concentration and pH, as well as separation voltage and capillary temperature were investigated in detail. A maximal resolution of 6.78 was obtained. The binding constants of the host-guest complex of clenbuterol enantiomers with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, K _R-CD and K _S-CD are 22.50 and 43.09 l mol^-1, respectively.     

Azithromycin as a new chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis

In capillary electrophoresis (CE), separation of enantiomers of a chiral compound can be achieved through the chiral interactions and/or complex formation between the chiral selector and the enantiomeric analytes on leaving their diastereomeric forms with different stability constants and hence different mobilities. A great number of chiral selectors have been employed in CE and among them macrocyclic antibiotics exhibited excellent enantioselective properties towards a wide number of racemic compounds. The use of azithromycin (AZM) as a chiral selector has not been reported previously. This work reports the use of AZM as a chiral selector for the enantiomeric separations of five chiral drugs and one amino acid (tryptophan) in CE. The enantioseparation is carried out using polar organic mixtures of acetonitrile (ACN), methanol (MeOH), acetic acid and triethylamine as run buffer. The influences of the chiral selector concentration, ACN/MeOH ratio, applied voltage and capillary temperature on enantioseparation are investigated. The results show that AZM is a viable chiral selector in CE for the enantioseparation of the type of chiral drugs investigated.     

Enantioseparation of α-Amino Acids by Capillary Electrophoresis Using L-Cysteine-Modified Cyclodextrins as Chiral Selectors

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a powerful separation technique that was used in a wide range of analytical chemical applications. Cyclodextrins(CDs) are the most commonly used chiral selectors in chiral capillary electrophoresis at the present time. Under neutral conditions, however, native CDs are neutral and usually applicable only for the enantioseparation of charged analyses. To overcome this defect we modified α- and β-CD with a L-cysteine moiety and used the CD derivatives as chiral selectors for the separation of a-amino acid enantiomers by the ligand exchange mode.

Enantiomer Separation of the Four Stereoisomers of 1-(4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxy)-Phenyl-2-[4-(1,2,3-Trihydroxy-Propyl)-2-Methoxy]-Phenoxy-1,3-Propandiol from Hydnocarpus annamensis by Capillary Zone Electrophoresis with HP-β-CD as Chiral Selector

A capillary zone electrophoresis method with HP-β-CD as chiral selector was established for the chiral separation of four stereoisomers of 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxy)-phenyl-2-[4-(1,2,3-trihydroxy-propyl)-2-methoxy]-phenoxy-1,3-propandiol for the first time, which were isolated from Hydnocarpus annamensis. The effects of chiral selector type and concentration, buffer composition, pH and concentration, and cartridge temperature on the enantioseparation were investigated. A baseline separation of the four stereoisomers was achieved in less than 18 min under the optimized conditions: 40 mmol L⁻¹ Borax–NaOH buffer (pH 10.02) in the presence of 100 mmol L⁻¹ HP-β-CD at 15°C and 30 kV. The experimental results showed that the method by capillary zone electrophoresis for the separation of four stereoisomers is powerful, sensitive and fast, requires less amounts of reagents, and can be employed as a reliable alternative to other methods.     

Use of 6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">O</Emphasis>-mono-substituted derivatives of β-cyclodextrin-bearing substituent with two permanent positive charges in capillary electrophoresis

This study details the use of two permanently positively charged mono-substituted β-cyclodextrin derivatives, 6^I -deoxy-6^I-(N,N N′,N′,N^t’-pentamethyl-ethylene-1,2-diammonio)-cyclomaltoheptose dichloride (PEMEDA-β-CD) and the newly synthesised 6^I-deoxy-6^I-(N,N,N′,N′,N′-pentamethyl-propylene-1,3-diammonio)-cyclomaltoheptose (PEMPDA-β-CD) as chiral selectors in capillary electrophoresis. Cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives were tested as additives in various buffers at various pH values with the optional addition of an organic modifier. Fourteen anionogenic analytes were tested, including native amino acids, N-blocked amino acids and profens, which were detected using a UV-VIS detector at optimal wavelengths of 214 nm, 254 nm or 280 nm. A borate buffer (15 mmol L^?1) at pH 9.5 without the addition of an organic modifier was chosen as a suitable background electrolyte. In addition, the effect of the concentration of the chiral selector on the separation and enantioseparation of selected analytes was monitored. The additions of cyclodextrin derivatives varied within the concentration range of 0.0–5.0 mmol L^?1. Both chiral selectors were suitable for the enantioseparation of N-Boc-d,l-tryptophan, which was already separated on the baseline at 0.5 mmol L^?1 concentration of the chiral selector.     

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.

Chiral separation of amino acids by capillary electrophoresis with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propane sulfonate as chiral selector

Summary 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammoniol-1-propane sulfonate (CHAPS) can be used as an effective chiral selector for the separation of dansyl-amino acids by capillary electrophoresis (CE). While CHAPS can serve as an chiral selector, better enantiomeric separation can be performed by using CHAPS not as the sole chiral selector but as one of a [CHAPS-SDS-cyclodextrin] three-component system. In this CHAPS-SDS-CD system, enantiomeric separations of the amino acids can be readily accomplished by judiciously adjusting the pH of the solution, concentrations of CHAPS and SDS, and the concentration and type of CD. All amino acids can be baseline resolved in less than 15 minutes with resolution as high as 2.01 at pH 6.5 with 50 mM of CHAPS and 75 mM of SDS. The resolution is also dependent on the size of the CD. Substantial increase in the resolution can be readily achieved by replacing β-CD with γ-CD. For example, theR _s for Leu was increased by four-folds (from 1.65 to 6.29) while the elution time still remains as short as 20 min when β-CD was replaced by γ-CD.     

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.
