Resolution of sulphur-containing amino acids by chiral phase gas chromatography

Summary Methyl esters of the pentafluoropropionyl-amino acid derivatives of the tetrafunctional, sulphur-bridged, stereoisomeric lanthionines, cystathionines and -methyl-lanthionines were resolved on glass capillaries coated with the chiral stationary phase N-propionyl-L-valine-N-tert-butylamide-polysiloxane (Chirasil-Val) within 35min. Interestingly, L-cystathionine elutes before its D-enantiomer in contrast to the usual order of emergence on an L-phase. The method was applied to the polypeptide antibiotic nisin, which contains mesolanthionine and 2S,3S,6R-3-methyl-lanthionine.N-Pentafluoropropionyl-S-alkylthiocysteine methyl esters (R=methyl, ethyl, n- and iso-propyl, n- and sec-butyl, n-octyl, neo-pentyl, cyclohexyl-, benzyl-, tolyl-) were separated on Chirasil-Val within 30min. The identity of all derivatives was shown by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.     

Enantioseparation of amino acids on a polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phase

Sulfonic acids have been shown to be more effective than the commonly used trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in the chiral resolution of underivatized aromatic amino acids on an amylosic column. Sulfonic acid additives give a more UV transparent mobile phase, possibly allowing the detection of non-aromatic analytes. Work presented demonstrates that through the combination of sulfonic acid mobile phase additives, amine mobile phase additives and solvent modifier variations, the enantiomers of 20 of 25 probe amino acids are fully resolved, four are partially resolved with only one failing to be separated on a common amylosic column.     

The separation of amino acid enatiomers on optically active dipeptide carborane stationary phases

Summary N-Trifluoroacetyl (TFA) dipeptide-o-carboranyl propyl esters of L-valyl-L-valine and L--amino-n-butyryl-L--amino-n-butyric acid have been prepared and the properties of these two new stationary phases for the gas-liquid chromatographic sepaation of amino acid enantiomers have been examined. It was found that the amino acid derivatives have shorter retention times, while maintaining good separation factors, on these carborane phases as compared to other dipeptide stationary phases. Both high and low boiling derivatives have been resolved on a 165 m×0.5 mm capillary column. The new phases have greater thermal stability and can be utilized over a wide temperature range.     

Synthesis of optically active amino acids during asymmetric phase-transfer catalysis

Conclusions Asymmetric alkylation of the amino acid fragment of Ni²⁺ complexes of the Schiff bases of glycine with N-(2-pyridinecarbonyl)-o-aminobenzophenone and of alanine with N-(2-pyridinecarbonyl)-o-aminobenzaldehyde has been carried out under phase-transfer conditions using N-benzylcinchonidinium chloride as the chiral phase-transfer catalyst.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 631–635, March, 1989.     

Enzymatic preparation of optically active silicon-containing amino acids and their application

Optically active 3-trimethyl silylalanine (TMS-Ala) was prepared by hydrolysis of N-acetyl-dl-TMS-Ala catalyzed by acylase I (aminoacylase; N-acylamino-acid amidohydrolase, EC3.5.1.14). Acylase I from porcine kidney (PKA) was found to be more effective than that from Aspergillus melleus in the preparation of l-TMS-Ala. Under the optimized conditions, optically pure l-TMS-Ala (>99% enantiomeric excess, ee) was obtained with a 72% yield. Furthermore, a highly optically pure d-TMS-Ala (96% ee) could also be obtained with a 76% yield by chemical hydrolysis of the residual substrate. Enzymatic synthesis of peptides containing TMS-Ala was also attempted in ethyl acetate. Benzyloxycarbonyl (Z)-l-TMS-Ala served as the substrate for thermolysin, whereas l-TMS-Ala-OMe was inactive as the amino component. In the case of inhibitory activity of dipeptides toward thermolysin, l-Leu-(l-TMS-Ala) was found to be a more potent inhibitor than l-Leu-l-Leu, which is known to be one of the most effective inhibitors of thermolysin among the dipeptides consisting of natural aminoacids.     

Synthesis and characterization of supramolecular optically active bisamides derived from amino acids

The synthesis and phase transitional behaviour of three pairs of enantiomeric supramolecular hexacatenar liquid crystals (LCs) derived from natural α-amino acids such as l/d-alanine, l/d-leucine and l/d-valine are described. Their preparation with high enantiomeric purity was accomplished by condensing optically active (amino acid residue containing) trialkoxy amines with a 3,4,5-trialkoxy cinnamic acid core using a peptide coupling reagent namely, 2-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-uronium hexafluorophosphate (HBTU). The mesomorphic behaviour of these self-complementing mesogens was ascertained by polarising optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. The compounds exhibit columnar (Col) phase over a wide thermal range. Particularly, a pair of enantiomers derived from l/d-leucine residues notably stabilize hexagonal Col (Col_h) phase over a wide temperature range of ?5 °C to 180 °C. Circular dichroism (CD) and FTIR studies suggest the chiral (helical) organization of mesogens within the columns through intermolecular hydrogen bonding; thus, these enantiomers represent one of the rarely reported examples of LCs exhibiting supramolecular Col_h phase at room temperature. The gelation studies reveal the ability of these bisamides to form stable supramolecular gels in ethanol caused through H-bonding interactions.     

Polycondensations of dicarboxylic acids and diols derived from optically active amino alcohols

Polycondensations of dicarboxylic acids with diols having amide moieties derived from optically active amino alcohols were carried out. Polymers with M _ns 8,700–17,400 were obtained by the polycondensations using 1.2 eq. of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC·HCl) in DMF at room temperature for 8 h in satisfactory yields. The T_g of the polymer rose with decrease of the methylene chain length of the dicarboxylic acid. In the T_gs of the polymers from L-leucinol, even-odd effect was observed with increase of the methylene chain length of the dicarboxylic acid. The molecular rotation values of the polymers were constant except for the polymer from succinic acid, which showed the negatively largest one. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Enantiomeric separation of tocainide and its analogues on an optically active crown ether-based stationary phase by liquid chromatography

Tocainide and its 14 analogues were resolved on a chiral stationary phase (CSP) based on (3,3'-diphenyl-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6 covalently bonded to silica gel. The resolution was quite good, the separation (alpha) and resolution factors (Rs) being 1.84-15.32 and 1.34-13.78, respectively. Especially, the result for the resolution of tocainide on the CSP turns out to be the best one among others reported so far. The chromatographic resolution behaviors were demonstrated to be dependent on the content and the type of organic and acidic modifiers and the ammonium acetate concentration in aqueous mobile phase.
