Separation of basic drug enantiomers by capillary electrophoresis using ovoglycoprotein as a chiral selector: comparison of chiral resolution ability of ovoglycoprotein and completely deglycosylated ovoglycoprotein

Separations of basic drug enantiomers by capillary electrophoresis (CE) using ovoglycoprotein (OGCHI) as a chiral selector are described. The effects of running buffer pH and 2-propanol content on the migration times and resolution of basic drug enantiomers were examined using a linear polyacrylamide-coated capillary. High resolution of basic drug enantiomers was attained using a mixture of 50 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 4.5-6.0) and 2-propanol (5-30%) including 50 microM OGCHI. It was found that ionic and hydrophobic interactions could work for the recognition of basic drug enantiomers. Further, we compared the chiral resolution ability of OGCHI with that of completely deglycosylated OGCHI (cd-OGCHI) using them as chiral selectors in CE. OGCHI showed higher resolution for basic drug enantiomers tested than cd-OGCHI. The results suggest that the chiral recognition site(s) for OGCHI exists on the protein domain of OGCHI.     

Enhanced chromatographic resolution of amine enantiomers as carbobenzyloxy derivatives in high-performance liquid chromatography and supercritical fluid chromatography

The carbobenzyloxy (cbz) protecting group is evaluated for it's potential to enhance the resolution of chiral amine enantiomers using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). A series of cbz derivatives of commercially available racemates was prepared and analyzed by enantioselective chromatography using a variety of mobile phases and polysaccharide and Pirkle-type chiral stationary phases (CSPs). The cbz-derivatized product consistently demonstrated enhanced chiral resolution under HPLC and SFC conditions. Improved selectivity and resolution combined with an automated preparative HPLC or SFC system can lead to the rapid generation of highly purified enantiomers of desirable starting materials, intermediates or final products.     

Preparation and evaluation of a novel chiral stationary phase based on covalently bonded chitosan for ligand-exchange chromatography

A novel chiral stationary phase based on chitosan covalently bonded onto silica gels has been prepared and used for the separation of various alpha-amino acid enantiomers as well as alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acid enantiomers by chiral ligand-exchange chromatography with copper(II) as a complexing ion. The methanol content and copper(II) ion concentration in the eluent affected retentivity and enantioselectivity. Furthermore, a plausible chiral recognition mechanism for resolution of alpha-amino acids was proposed.     

Rapid and economic chiral-HPLC method of nebivolol enantiomers resolution in dosage formulation

A fast, economic, reproducible, accurate, effective, rugged and selective chiral-HPLC method was developed and validated for the enantiomeric resolution of nebivolol enantiomers [(+)-RRRS and (-)-SSSR)] in dosage formulation. The method was rapid as chiral separation occurred within only 12 min. The mobile phase used was n-heptane-ethanol-DEA (85:15:0.1, v/v) at 3.0 mL/min flow-rate with 225 nm detection. The column used was an amylase-based 3-AmyCoat (150 × 46 mm) [tris-(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate)]. The capacity factors of (+)-RRRS and (-)-SSSR enantiomers were 7.85 and 10.90 while the separation and resolution factors were 1.39 and 1.83, respectively. The limits of detection and quantitation for (+)-RRRS enantiomer were 4.5 and 10.00 μg/mL, while these values for (-)-SSSR enantiomer were 4.1 and 8.2 μg/mL, respectively. The linearity was observed in the concentrations range of 0.10-1.0 mg/mL for both enantiomers. The π-π interactions, hydrogen bonds, dipole-dipole interactions and steric effects control the chiral resolution of nebivolol enantiomers on the reported chiral column. The reported method can be used for the quality control of nebivolol in pharmaceutical preparations with good economy. In addition, this method can also be used for the analysis of (+)-RRRS and (-)-SSSR) enantiomers in biological and environmental samples.     

β-环糊精键合手性固定相分离苯并恶嗪类对映体

研究了在反相高效液相色谱模式下,基于点击化学的β-环糊精手性固定相对苯并恶嗪类对映体的手性分离情况。考察了流动相中有机改性剂的类型和比例、缓冲盐的浓度和pH值对分离的影响。考察结果表明: 乙腈作为有机改性剂比甲醇更有利于苯并恶嗪对映体的分离;乙酸三乙胺缓冲盐体积分数从0.1%增大到1.0%时,苯并恶嗪对映体的保留时间和分离度都随之减小,在pH 4.1时苯并恶嗪对映体具有最大分离度。因此确定乙腈和体积分数为0.1%的乙酸三乙胺缓冲盐流动相(pH 4.1)为最佳分离条件。分离机理研究结果表明,固定相和样品之间的包容络合相互作用以及样品和固定相之间的氢键作用,是样品得以分离的基础。本研究为进一步深入研究β-环糊精固定相提供了实验基础,同时也证明了点击化学在手性环糊精固定相制备中具有极大潜力。     

三七素手性拆分方法的研究

使用气相色谱法和高效液相色谱法分离了三七素对映体,并探讨了影响液相色谱法分离效果的因素。结果表明,HPLC法利用手性固定相进行直接拆分,无法实现对映体的完全分离;GC法和HPLC的手性试剂衍生化法均可对三七素对映体进行较好的分离。但GC法由于衍生化过程中副产物的存在,干扰了对映体的准确定量。手性试剂衍生化HPLC法,以邻苯二甲醛、N-酰化-L-半胱氨酸为衍生化试剂,反应得到的三七素对映体的衍生物在ODS柱上分离良好,且方法简单、快速。

Liquid chromatographic separation of the enantiomers of beta-amino acids on a ligand exchange chiral stationary phase

A liquid chromatographic ligand exchange chiral stationary phase (CSP) derived from (S)-leucinol was applied in the separation of the enantiomers of 12 beta-amino acids. The resolution was quite successful especially for the enantiomers of beta-amino acids containing aromatic functional group in the side chain. The chromatographic resolution behaviors were dependent on the organic modifier and Cu(II) concentration in aqueous mobile phase and the column temperature.     

Dynamic kinetic resolution of 1-substituted-3-methyl-3-phospholene oxides via the formation of diastereomeric alkoxyphospholenium salts

A dynamic kinetic resolution method based on the formation of covalent diastereomeric intermediates was elaborated for the preparation of enantiomerically enriched 1-substituted-3-methyl-3-phospholene oxides. The 3-phospholene oxides were first converted to the corresponding chloro-3-phospholenium chlorides. The dynamic interconversion between the enantiomers of the chlorophospholenium salts was verified experimentally, as it is the key step for a dynamic resolution. The cyclic chlorophospholenium salts were reacted with a chiral auxiliary bearing a hydroxy function to form the corresponding diastereomeric alkoxyphospholenium salts in unequal amounts. The diastereomeric species then rearranged into the corresponding optically active 3-phospholene oxides upon heating. After a screening of chiral auxiliaries and the optimization of the reaction conditions, several scalemic 1-aryl- or 1-alkyl-3-methyl-3-phospholene oxides were prepared in excellent yields and with ee-s up to 35%. The key steps of this resolution were investigated by quantum chemical calculations to get some insights into the factors responsible for the stereoselection.

Resolution of the enantiomers of oxamniquine by capillary electrophoresis and high-performance liquid chromatography with cyclodextrins and heparin as chiral selectors

The methods of separation of the enantiomers of the chiral drug oxamniquine are compared, between HPLC with either cyclodextrins and their related derivatives as chiral selectors in the mobile phase or immobilisedin a chiral stationary phase (as Cyclobond I and II) and between capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) where the cyclodextrins are added to the buffer solution. The HPLC experiments, which included structured method optimisation were largely unsuccessful in resolving the enantiomers, with the exception of when a Chiral-AGP protein stationary phase was introduced into the programme. However although this chiral stationary phase provided baseline resolution of the enantiomers the stability of the method was suspect to small changes in the pH (0.2 units). In contrast the CZE method developed for both cyclodextrins and their derivatives gave good resolution of the enantiomers and method stability (R.S.D. <1%, N = 10 on precision). The basis of the interaction mechanism between selector and selectand was shown as a 1:2 relationship of cyclodextrin to analyte by NMR. In addition the polysaccharide, heparin was investigated as a chiral additive and excellent resolution of the oxaminiquine was achieved with 3 mM heparin in 50 mM sodium dihydrogenphosphate (pH 3.0) as buffer in CZE, which also gave a stable procedure. This method allowed the detection of each of the enantiomers in the presence of the other down to 0.23% (m/m). The overall composition of the heparin material from different sources can however be slightly variable and this can result in small differences in resolution capability.

Separation of β-blocker and amino acid enantiomers on a mixed chiral sorbent modified with macrocyclic antibiotics eremomycin and vancomycin

A mixed chiral sorbent based on silica with immobilized macrocyclic antibiotics eremomycin and vancomycin was synthesized. A possibility of the separation of enantiomers of β-blockers (metoprolol, pindolol, alprenolol, oxprenolol, labetalol, and atenolol) and amino acids (tryptophan, phenylalanine, DOPA, methionine, and acetyl glutamic acid) on this chiral sorbent by HPLC was studied. The influence of the composition of the mobile phase (pH of buffer solution, its concentration, content of organic modifier, and its nature) on the retention times of β-blocker and amino acid enantiomers, selectivity, and resolution of peaks was studied. It was shown that the mixed chiral sorbent has enantioselectivity to both classes of compounds, while silica modified with vancomycin has no ability to the separation of enantiomers of non-derivatized amino acids, and silica modified with eremomycin has no ability to the separation of β-blocker enantiomers. High values of resolution for amino acids (max Rs > 4) and β-blockers (max Rs > 1) were obtained.     

Enantiomeric impurity determination in capillary electrophoresis using a highly-sulfated cyclodextrins-based method

Capillary electrophoresis (CE), using highly-sulfated cyclodextrins as chiral selectors, has been applied to determine the chiral purity of pharmaceutical compounds. A chiral separation strategy, developed earlier for racaemic mixtures, was applied on four basic drugs (propranolol, atenolol, chlorpheniramine and tryptophan methylester). The aim was to develop validated separation methods which allow determination of 0.1% impurity levels of the unwanted enantiomers (distomer) in the presence of 99.9% of the active compound (eutomer). The linearity, quantification limits for the trace enantiomers and the precision of the measurements were determined. In a second part, impurity separations have been simulated in order to evaluate the required resolution when assaying impurities. It is shown that a baseline resolution of 1.5, generally accepted for racaemic mixtures, does not always allow good impurity determinations. Two alternative methods to solve this problem have been proposed.

Enantiomeric separation of glycidyl tosylate by CE: Application to the study of catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of allyl alcohol

A CE method using CDs as chiral selectors was developed and validated to achieve the separation of glycidyl tosylate enantiomers originated by in situ derivatization of glycidol enantiomers obtained in asymmetric epoxidation of allyl alcohol with chiral titanium‐tartrate complexes as catalysts. The effects of the nature, pH and concentration of the buffer, the nature and concentration of chiral selector, the addition of SDS, methanol, ethanol or 2‐propanol, the capillary temperature, the effective capillary length and the applied voltage on the chiral resolution of glycidyl tosylate enantiomers were investigated. The best separation conditions were achieved using a Tris‐borate buffer mixture (50 and 25 mM, respectively) at pH=9.3 with a dual CD system consisting of 2.5% succinyl‐β‐CD and 1.0% β‐CD w/v at 15°C. A baseline separation (resolution～2.0) of the glycidyl tosylate enantiomers was obtained in a relatively short time (less than 12 min). Satisfactory results were obtained in terms of linearity (r>0.99) and intermediate precision (RSD below 8.5%). The LOD and LOQ were 3.0 and 10.0 mg/L, respectively, and the recoveries ranged from 99.8 to 108.8%. Finally, the method was applied to the determination of the enantiomeric excess and the yield obtained in the asymmetric epoxidation of allyl alcohol employing chiral titanium‐tartrate complexes as catalysts after an in situ derivatization of glycidol enantiomers to glycidyl tosylate.

Separation of basic drug enantiomers by capillary zone electrophoresis using glucuronyl glucosyl beta-cyclodextrin as a chiral selector.

Separations of basic drug enantiomers have been investigated using glucuronyl glucosyl beta-cyclodextrin (GUG beta-CD) as a chiral selector in the background electrolyte by capillary zone electrophoresis. The effects of GUG beta-CD concentration and running buffer pH on the migration times and resolution of 16 basic drug enantiomers were precisely examined using a linear polyacrylamide-coated capillary. High resolution of 16 basic drug enantiomers was generally attained with a running buffer pH 2.5 or 3.5 containing 10 mM GUG beta-CD. Next, we compared the chiral resolution abilities of GUG beta-CD with those of beta-CD and maltosyl beta-CD (G2 beta-CD). GUG beta-CD showed higher resolution for basic drug enantiomers tested than beta-CD and G2 beta-CD. This could be due to that hydrogen bonding or ionic interactions of uncharged and charged glucuronyl glucosyl groups of GUG beta-CD with an analyte could stabilize the inclusion complex.     

Chiral separations on multichannel microfluidic chips

Chiral separations of FITC-labeled basic drugs on multichannel microfluidic chips with LIF detector were investigated. A preliminary screening procedure for seven neutral CDs was performed under optimized conditions for chiral separations of three FITC-labeled drugs (baclofen, norfenefrine, and tocainide) on a mono-channel microfluidic chip. According to the results of screening, FITC-baclofen and FITC-norfenefrine as well as two chiral selectors including gamma-CD and dimethyl-beta-CD (DM-beta-CD) were selected as models to perform chiral separations on a two-channel chip. FITC-baclofen enantiomers were separated completely by gamma-CD in one channel, while resolution of FITC-norfenefrine enantiomers was achieved by DM-beta-CD in the other channel in the same run. Furthermore, the feasibility of using one chiral selector to separate multiple chiral samples was studied on a four-channel chip. These results show that multichannel chip has a potential for chiral high-throughput screening.
