Simultaneous chiral separation of tramadol and methadone in tablets,human urine,and plasma by capillary electrophoresis using maltodextrin as the chiral selector

The stereoselective analysis and separation of racemic drugs play an important role in pharmaceutical industry to eliminate the unwanted isomer and find the right therapeutic control for the patient. Present study suggests a maltodextrin‐modified capillary electrophoresis method for a single‐run chiral separation of two closely similar opiate pain relief drugs: tramadol (TRA) and methadone (MET). The best separation method possible for the both enantiomers was achieved on an uncoated fused‐silica capillary at 25°C using 100 mM phosphate buffer (pH 8.0) containing 20% (w v^?1) maltodextrin with dextrose equivalent of 4–7 and an applied voltage of 16 kV. Under optimal conditions, the baseline resolution of TRA and MET enantiomers was obtained in less than 12 minutes. The relative standard deviations (n = 3) of 20 μg mL^?1 TRA and MET were 2.28% and 3.77%, respectively. The detection limits were found to be 2 μg mL^?1 for TRA and 1.5 μg mL^?1 for MET. This method was successfully applied to the measurement of drugs concentration in their tablets, urine, and plasma samples.     

Enzymatic synthesis of chiral intermediates for Omapatrilat, an antihypertensive drug

Biocatalytic processes were used to prepare chiral intermediates required for the synthesis of Omapatrilat 1 by three different routes. The synthesis and enzymatic conversion of 2-keto-6-hydroxyhexanoic acid 3 to L-6-hydroxynorleucine 2 was demonstrated by reductive amination using beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase. To avoid the lengthy chemical synthesis of the ketoacid 3, a second route was developed to prepare the ketoacid by treatment of racemic 6-hydroxy norleucine [readily available from hydrolysis of 5-(4-hydroxybutyl) hydantoin 4] with D-amino acid oxidase from porcine kidney or Trigonopsis variabilis followed by reductive amination to convert the mixture completely to L-6-hydroxynorleucine in 98% yield and 99% enantiomeric excess (e.e.). The enzymatic synthesis of (S)-2-amino-5-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-pentanoic acid (allysine ethylene acetal, 5) was demonstrated using phenylalanine dehydrogenase (PDH) from T. intermedius. Phenylalanine dehydrogenase was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris. Using PDH from E. coli or P. pastoris, the enzymatic process was scale-up to prepare kg quantity of allysine ethylene acetal 5. The reaction yields of >94% and e.e. of >98% were obtained for allysine ethylene acetal 5. An enzymatic process was developed for the synthesis of [4S-(4a,7a,10ab)]1-octahydro-5-oxo-4 [[(phenylmethoxy)carbonyl]amino]-7H-pyrido-[2,1-b] [1,3]thiazepine-7-carboxylic acid [BMS-199541-01]. The enzymatic oxidation of the epsilon-amino group of lysine in the dipeptide dimer N(2)-[N[[(phenyl-methoxy)carbonyl] L-homocysteinyl] L-lysine)-1,1-disulphide [BMS-201391-01] to produce BMS-199541-01 using a novel L-lysine epsilon-aminotransferase (LAT) from Sphingomonas paucimobilis SC 16113 was demonstrated. This enzyme was overexpressed in E. coli and a process was developed using the recombinant enzyme.     

Enantioselective separation of cyclic chiral ketones and their corresponding diastereomeric alcohols by HPLC on chiral and chiral/chiral coupled stationary phases

Enantioselective HPLC methods have been developed for the resolution of (RS)-2-phenylcyclohexanone (compound 1) and (RS)-2-phenyltetrahydropyran-4-one (compound 4) and the diastereoselective and enantioselective separations of their respective cis- and trans-alcohols; reduction of compound 1 yields trans- and cis-2-phenyl-1-cyclohexanol (compounds 2 and 3, respectively) and reduction of compound 4 yields trans- and cis-2-phenyl-tetrahydropyran-4-ol (compounds 5 and 6, respectively). Compounds 1, 2, and 3 were stereochemically resolved using a chiral stationary phase (CSP) based upon amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate) coated on 10 μm silica-gel (Chiralpak AD-CSP). Compounds 4, 5, and 6 were stereochemically resolved on a coupled column system where a column containing a CSP based upon cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate) coated on 5 μm silica (Chiralcel OD-H-CSP) was coupled in series to the AD-CSP. The strategy employed in the identification of the peaks in the respective chromatograms is also discussed in this presentation. Chirality 8:551–555, 1996. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

New chiral stationary phases for liquid chromatography based on small molecules: Development,enantioresolution evaluation and chiral recognition mechanisms

Recently, we reported the development of new chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for liquid chromatography (LC) based on chiral derivatives of xanthones (CDXs). Based on the most promising CDX selectors, 12 new CSPs were successfully prepared starting from suitable functionalized small molecules including xanthone and benzophenone derivatives. The chiral selectors comprising one, two, three, or four chiral moieties were covalently bonded to a chromatographic support and further packed into LC stainless-steel columns (150 × 2.1 mm I.D.). The enantioselective performance of the new CSPs was evaluated by LC using different classes of chiral compounds. Specificity for enantioseparation of some CDXs was observed in the evaluation of the new CSPs. Besides, assessment of chiral recognition mechanisms was performed by computational studies using molecular docking approach, which are in accordance with the chromatographic parameters. X-Ray analysis was used to establish a chiral selector 3D structure.     

Convergent synthesis, chiral HPLC, and vitamin D receptor affinity of analogs of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol

A series of analogs of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol was obtained with an additional chiral center at the terminus of the aliphatic side chain (C-25). The analogs were obtained from (+)-(R)- and (-)-(S)-2-methylglycidols, by opening of the oxirane ring with the carbanions derived from vitamin D C23a,24- or C22-sulfones. The diastereomeric purity of the analogs was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography on a chiral stationary phase. The binding affinity of analogs for the calf thymus intracellular vitamin D receptor (VDR) was two orders of magnitude lower than that of the lead compound of this group, 24a,24b-dihomo-1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, and it was comparable to the affinity of analogs of 24-nor-1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol. However, a twofold difference was observed for analogs diastereomeric at C-25 in their affinity for VDR. The diastereodifferentiation of the binding affinity was found to be specific for vitamin D vicinal 25,26-diols as it disappears for analogs where 26-hydroxyl, neighboring the C-25 chiral center, is replaced with methyl.     

Normal phase chiral HPLC of methylphenidate: comparison of different polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases.

A comparison of the enantiomeric resolution of (+/-)-threo-methylphenidate (MPH) (Ritalin) was achieved on different polysaccharide based chiral stationary phases. The mobile phase used was hexane-ethanol-methanol-trifluoroacetic acid (480:9.75:9.75:0.5, v/v/v/v). Benzoic acid and phenol were used as the mobile phase additives for the enantiomeric resolution of MPH on Chiralcel OB column only. The alpha values for the resolved enantiomers were 1.34, 1.29, 1.30, and 1.24 on Chiralpak AD, Chiralcel OD, Chiralcel OB (containing 0.2 mM benzoic acid in mobile phase), and Chiralcel OB (containing 0.2 mM phenol in mobile phase) columns, respectively. The R(s) values were 1.82, 1.53, 1.19, and 1.10 on Chiralpak AD, Chiralcel OD, Chiralcel OB (containing 0.2 mM benzoic acid in mobile phase), and Chiralcel OB (containing 0.2 mM phenol in mobile phase), respectively. The role of benzoic acid and phenol as mobile phase additives is discussed.     

Enantiomer self-disproportionation and chiral stationary phase based selective chiral separation of organic compounds

In modern chromatography, chiral stationary phase (CSP) and enantiomer self-disproportionation (ESD) are new inventions of packing material offer a guarantee for a successful enantiomeric separation. All CSPs were synthesized by chemical bonding of the relevant organic moieties onto a porous parent silica material for the separation of various racemic mixtures whereas achiral silica matrix was used for separation of non-racemic mixtures in ESD. Our present study provides to establish an understanding on the entire enantio-selective profile of amino alcohol based CSP as well as ESD and their precise utilization for high success rates for selective enantiomer separation with its appropriateness.     

Stereoselective disposition and chiral inversion of KE-298, a new antirheumatic drug,in rats

The present study was an attempt to elucidate the relationship between stereoselective pharmacokinetics and protein binding of KE-298 and its active metabolites, deacetyl-KE-298 (M-1) and S-methyl-KE-298 (M-2). Metabolic chiral inversion was also investigated. The levels of unchanged KE-298 in plasma after oral administration of (+)-(S)-KE-298 to rats were lower than those of (−)-(R)-KE-298, whereas the levels of M-1 and M-2 after administration of (+)-(S)-KE-298 were higher than after (−)-(R)-KE-298. In vitro, rat plasma protein binding of (+)-(S)-KE-298 was lower than that of (−)-(R)-KE-298. In contrast, the binding of (+)-(S)-M-1 and (+)-(S)-M-2 was higher than that of (−)-(R)-M-1 and (−)-(R)-M-2. Displacement studies revealed that the (+)-(S) and (−)-(R)-enantiomers of KE-298 and their metabolites bound to the warfarin binding site on rat serum albumin. These results suggest that the stereoselective plasma levels in KE-298 and its metabolites were closely related to enantiomeric differences in protein binding, attributed to quantitative differences in binding to albumin rather than to the different binding sites. Unidirectional chiral inversion was detected after oral administration of either (−)-(R)-KE-298 or (−)-(R)-M-2 to rats both yielding (+)-(S)-M-2. Chirality 9:22–28, 1997 © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Micellar peroxidase-catalyzed synthesis of chiral polyaniline

Micellar peroxidase-catalyzed synthesis of chiral polyaniline (PANI) in the presence of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DBSA) was developed. The effect of DBSA concentration on the catalytic efficiency of horseradish and palm tree peroxidases was examined. Favorable conditions for the enzymatic synthesis of chiral PANI, determined by a multiple factors design, demonstrated that the PANIs with the highest chirality were produced in the presence of low concentrations of optically active camphorsulphonic acid (CSA). Unexpectedly, the chiral PANI was also synthesized in the absence of CSA in feed. The favorable conditions for the enzymatic production of chiral and conducting PANIs were shown to be different. The morphology of the chiral PANI particles was examined by transmission and scanning electron microscopies.     

HPLC with carbohydrate carbamate chiral phases: Influence of chiral phase structure on enantioselectivity

The enantioselective resolution of trans-stilbene oxide and of 23 chiral sulfoxides was investigated on cellulose and amylose tris(arylcarbamate) stationary phases coated on aminopropylated 7 μm spherical silica with 500 Å diameter pores. Cellulose tris-(3,5 dimethylphenylcarbamate) showed good resolving power for many of the sulfoxides and amylose tris-(3,5 dimethoxyphenylcarbamate) showed advantages for the resolution of certain sulfoxides which were not separated on other phases. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Evaluation of dalbavancin as chiral selector for HPLC and comparison with teicoplanin‐based chiral stationary phases

Dalbavancin is a new compound of the macrocyclic glycopeptide family. It was covalently linked to 5 μm silica particles using two different binding chemistries. Approximately 250 racemates including (a) heterocyclic compounds, (b) chiral acids, (c) chiral amines, (d) chiral alcohols, (e) chiral sulfoxides and sulfilimines, (f) amino acids and amino acid derivatives, and (g) other chiral compounds were tested on the two new chiral stationary phases (CSPs) using three different mobile phases. As dalbavancin is structurally related to teicoplanin, the same set of chiral compounds was screened on two commercially available teicoplanin CSPs for comparison. The dalbavancin CSPs were able to separate some enantiomers that were not separated by the teicoplanin CSPs and also showed improved separations for many racemates. However, there were other compounds only separated or better separated on teicoplanin CSPs. Therefore, the dalbavancin CSPs are complementary to the teicoplanin CSPs.

Development of a chiral stationary phase based on cinchonidine. Comparison with a quinine-based chiral column

A chiral anion-exchanger stationary phase based on cinchonidine (CD) was developed. Two columns were packed with and without endcapping (EC) treatment (CD-chiral stationary phase[CD-CSP(EC)] and [CD-CSP], respectively) and studied for their ability to separate N-2,4-dinitrophenyl α-amino acids (DNP-amino acids) enantiomers over a temperature range of 10-40 °C with a hydro-organic buffer mobile phase. The more hydrophobic, endcapped stationary phase showed significantly larger retentive capacity than the non-endcapped one. The apparent thermodynamic transfer parameters of the enantiomers from the mobile to both CSPs were estimated from van't Hoff plots within the cited temperature range. Similar studies with two natural quinine-based columns (QN-CSP and QN-CSP(EC)) were previously reported. In this work, a critical comparison in the chiral recognition ability to DNP-amino acids of these cinchonidine and QN-based chiral columns was drawn. It has been found that QN-based CSPs show greater chiral recognition capability towards these derivatives than CD-CSPs. The influence of the QN methoxy group on the equilibrium constants of the enantioselective interaction between these DNP-amino acids with these two cinchona CSPs could be assessed.     

The direct chiral separations of fungicide enantiomers on amylopectin based chiral stationary phase by HPLC

Amylopectin-tris(phenylcarbamate) was synthesized and coated to aminopropylsilica to prepare chiral stationary phase. The chiral separations of fungicide enantiomers were performed by the CSP using high-performance liquid chromatography. Mobile phase was n-hexane and isopropanol, and flow rate was 1.0 ml/min. Detection wavelength was 230 nm. The influence of the percentage of isopropanol in the mobile phase on the separations was studied. Twelve chiral fungicides were tested and seven of them were found to show stereoselectivity on the CSP. The enantiomers of metalaxyl and benalaxyl got near baseline separations and myclobutanil, hexconazole, tebuconazole, uniconazole, and paclobutrazol enantiomers were completely separated. The decreasing percentage of isopropanol in the mobile phase resulted in better separation and longer analysis time. The enantiomers were identified by a circular dichroism (CD) detector and the CD spectra of the individual enantiomers were also studied by online scanning.     

Process development of methylenedioxyphenyl-acetone chiral bioreduction

Talampanel is a non-competitive antagonist of AMPA receptor, and it is a drug studied for the treatment of epilepsy and cerebrovascular ischemia. The first step of an efficient synthesis of talampanel is the reduction of 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl-acetone (MDA) to (S)--methyl-1,3-benzodioxole-5-ethanol (MBE) accomplished with the use of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii in the presence of XAD-7 resin. Z. rouxii was chosen for its resistance to higher substrate and product concentrations (<6 g/l) and its higher reductase activity in comparison to other yeasts. Application of the moderately polar adsorbent resulted in low and non-toxic concentration of both the substrate and product in water phase.

A low cost fermentation medium without any component of animal origin was elaborated to produce Z. rouxii biomass. The control of pH and dissolved oxygen concentration, temperature, antifoam system, the time of harvest, the rate of inoculations and the number of inoculation steps were also studied. The fermentation process in 1000 l fermentor provided cell paste, possessing satisfactory ketoreductase activity (95–99%) with excellent enantioselectivity.

A method was developed to measure enzyme activity and to determine the key parameters of bioreduction. Excellent enantioselectivity was found under all conditions studied. The yield was very sensitive to the quality of cell paste. In a rather wide range temperature and aeration did not affect the results of bioreduction.     

Synthesis of novel chiral metal complexes derived from chiral thiosemicarbazide ligands as potential antioxidant agents

Two new chiral thiosemicarbazide ligands and their Cu (II), Ni (II), Pd (II), and Zn (II) complexes were synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) (only for ligand), Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR), ultraviolet visible (UV‐Vis), mass, and elemental analysis. The antioxidant activity of ligands and their metal complexes was examined. It was found that the antioxidant activity of metal complexes was better than their ligands. In addition, the antioxidant activity, as reflected by free radical scavenging, was evaluated. Besides, Pd (II) complexes exhibited better antioxidant activity than Ni (II), Cu (II), and Zn (II) complexes. Therefore, complexes (3a‐Pd and 3b‐Pd) can be used as an antioxidant agent or antioxidant test standard.     

Significance of mobile phase composition in enantioseparation of chiral drugs by HPLC on a cellulose-based chiral stationary phase

Eight randomly selected pharmaceuticals, which included ibuprofen, ketoprofen, albuterol, acebutolol, propafenone, betaxolol, methylphenidate, and homatropine, were directly separated on a cellulose tris(4-methylbenzoate) chiral stationary phase (CSP) without derivatization via normal phase mode HPLC. Enantioresolution was achieved by the optimization of the type and the ratio of mobile phase modifiers and additives. The modifiers included alcohols; the mobile phase additives were trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and triethylamine (TEA). It was found that methanol and ethanol were superior to isopropanol as mobile phase modifiers for enhancing chiral separation of some of the chiral drugs. The results also demonstrated that TFA has a dominant effect on chiral separations for both acidic and basic chiral drugs, although for some basic drug such as homatropine, TEA was more beneficial at improving enantioseparation. The separation of acebutolol enantiomers was achieved for the first time by adding both TFA and TEA to the mobile phase. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the applicability of cellulose based CSPs can be expanded by controlling the mobile phase compositions through the addition of trace amounts of achiral additives and the selection of the appropriate alcoholic modifier. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Self‐assembly and chiral recognition of quartz crystal microbalance chiral sensor

A novel chiral sensor based on the self‐assembled monolayer of (6^A‐ω‐mercaptoethylureado‐6^A‐deoxy)heptakis(2,3‐di‐o‐phenylcarbamoyl)‐6^B, 6^C, 6^D, 6^E, 6^F, 6^G‐ hexa‐o‐phenylcarbamoyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (Ph‐β‐CD‐SH) on a quartz crystal transducer for chiral recognition was set up. (R,S)‐(±)‐(3‐Methoxyphenyl)ethylamine were recognized by this QCM chiral sensor with a QCM chiral discrimination factor of 1.33. Furthermore, UV spectroscopy was used to investigate the mechanism of host‐guest interactions between (6^A‐azido‐6^A‐deoxy)heptakis(2,3‐di‐o‐phenylcarbamoyl)‐6^B, 6^C, 6^D, 6^E, 6^F, 6^G‐hexa‐o‐phenylcarbamoyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (Ph‐β‐CD) and (R,S)‐(±)‐(3‐methoxyphenyl) ethylamine. The UV discrimination factor was determined to be 0.066. Chirality, 2010. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.     

Dichloro-, dimethyl-, and chloromethylphenylcarbamate derivatives of cyclodextrins as chiral stationary phases for high-performance liquid chromatography

New dichloro-, dimethyl-, and chloromethylphenylcarbamate derivatives of cyclodextrins (CDs) were prepared and their enantiomeric recognition abilities were evaluated as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in normal phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The effects of the type of cyclodextrins, the nature and position of the substituents on the phenyl ring, binding mode and spacer on the chiral recognition were studied in detail. No marked change of chiral recognition abilities was established by reversing the binding side of CDs (i.e., by the narrower [primary] opening of the cone-shaped CD to silica gel with the wider [secondary] opening sides). This result indirectly proves the previously drawn conclusion about the minor role of inclusion phenomena in chiral recognition in this case. Nevertheless, chiral recognition of these CSPs toward some compounds critically depends on the type of CDs used. All CD derivatives described in this study show rather low enantiomeric resolving abilities compared with corresponding polysaccharide (cellulose and amylose) derivatives, although very high enantioselectivity of separation was observed for a few compounds, such as racemic flavanone and cyclopropanedicarboxilic acid dianilide. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Direct screening of chiral discrimination abilities of chiral hosts using mass spectrometry

A simultaneous estimation of the chiral discrimination abilities of several chiral hosts was demonstrated on the basis of one mass spectrum. The chiral host mixture, including H(1), H(2), H(3) ..., and H(m) (m: number of hosts) was prepared by etherification of several chiral alcohols with bistosylate of diethylene glycol. An equimolar mixture of a deuterium-labeled (S)- and unlabeled (R)-enantiomer of an amino acid isopropyl ester hydrochloride (G(S-dn) (+)Cl(-) and G(R) (+)Cl(-), n: number of deuterium atoms) was added to the chiral host mixture, and the FAB mass spectrum was measured to evaluate the chiral discrimination ability of each host in the mixture without isolation. The chiral discrimination ability of each host toward the guest is represented by the relative peak intensity of the diastereomeric complex ion pair, I(H(m) + G(R)((+)/I(H(m) + G(S-dn))(+) (=I(R)/I(S-dn) value). Several new hosts showed good chiral discrimination toward the guest.
