Thirty-five enzymes were rapidly screened for their ability to selectively hydrolyze chiral esters to their corresponding carboxylic acids for the efficient generation of chiral intermediates in drug discovery. Optimization of the enzymatic reactions at various incubation times was performed using a robotic liquid handler. Enantiomeric pairs of chiral esters and carboxylic acids were then analyzed simultaneously by chiral GC/MS in a single analysis. This analytical approach is particularly useful for compounds that do not possess a conjugated chromophore or are volatile and difficult to analyze by chiral HPLC/UV or HPLC/MS. The resulting data was used to determine enantiomeric excesses and percent conversions to the desired enantiomer of the carboxylic acid for the selection of efficient enzymes for bioconversions in drug discovery in a pharmaceutical company. 相似文献

We show a chiral symmetry conservation principle based on chemical kinetics using stochastic results. Suppose the chiral symmetry conservation is evoked, and our universe can be considered globally asymmetric. In that case, there are at least two mirrored asymmetric universes if all the chiral properties are strongly correlated. However, if the chiral correlations are weak or nonexistent, there are possibly Many-(Chiral-Symmetry)-Worlds. Alternatively, if our universe is only locally asymmetric, there could be a single universe with segregated chiral regions. The possible mechanisms of the primordial chiral symmetry breaking can only be found if the chiral symmetry is not truly conserved by assuming the initial racemic conditions. In that case, our universe is asymmetric and could be alone. On the other hand, if the chiral symmetry is conserved, there is no chance of finding the primordial chiral symmetry breaking. Based on this conservation (or not), it is possible to infer two opposite hypotheses, where two general scenarios about the chiral universes are possible. 相似文献

The separation of enantiomeric sugars by chromatographic methods 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M R Little 《Journal of biochemical and biophysical methods》1985,11(4-5):195-202
This paper has reviewed the number of chromatographic methods by which one may determine the absolute configuration of sugars. Both indirect methods (converting the enantiomeric pair into diastereomers) and direct methods (using chiral stationary phases) have been discussed. Resolving reagents for the indirect methods include chiral hydroxy compounds, chiral amines, and chiral thiols; with subsequent separation of the diastereomers either by gas-liquid chromatography or by high pressure liquid chromatography. Direct methods discussed have exclusively utilized chiral substitution of organopolysiloxane phases for the separation of enantiomeric sugars as volatile derivatives by gas-liquid chromatography. 相似文献

The chiral recognition phenomenon observed in enantioselective excited-state energy transfer processes currently requires the use of chiroptical spectroscopic techniques to probe the magnitude and sense of the discriminatory interactions. The use of chiroptical spectroscopic techniques limits the study of chiral recognition to those molecular species with strong absorption or emission dissymmetry factors. This study presents the theoretical and experimental methodology to determine the magnitude of chiral discriminatory interactions with unpolarized, steady-state luminescence measurements. Based on bimolecular luminescence quenching kinetics for a system containing chiral molecules, the Stern-Volmer equation is derived and contains a chiral discriminatory term for a system containing a chiral but racemic luminophore and an enantiomerically resolved quencher species. The utility of this methodology is confirmed by examining the enantioselective excited-state quenching between several Ln(dpa)(3)(3-) complexes (where Ln = Eu(3+), Tb(3+), or Dy(3+) and dpa = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate) acting as the energy donor and either racemic or enantiomerically resolved [Co(dach)(3)](3+) (where dach = trans-1R,2R (or 1S,2S)-diaminocyclohexane) acting as the energy acceptor in an aqueous solution. The results of this study confirm the utility of unpolarized, steady-state luminescence measurements as a probe of chiral discriminatory behavior. 相似文献

Chiral molecules can either be handed (i.e., "shoes") or nonhanded ("potatoes"). The only chiral ligand partition for tetrahedral metal complexes (or for a tetrahedral carbon atom such as that found in amino acids and other chiral biological molecules) is the fully unsymmetrical degree 6 partition (1(4)), which leads to handed metal complexes of the type MABCD with a lowest-degree chirality polynomial consisting of the product of all six possible linear factors of the type (s(i)-s(j)) where 1 < or = i,j < or = 4. The lowest-degree chiral ligand partitions for octahedral metal complexes are the degree 6 partitions (31(3)) and (2(3)) leading to handed chiral metal complexes of the types fac-MA(3)BCD and cis-MA(2)B(2)C(2). The form of the lowest-degree chirality polynomial for the (31(3)) chiral ligand partition of the octahedron resembles that of the (1(4)) chiral ligand partition of the tetrahedron, likewise with four different ligands. However, the form of the lowest-degree chirality polynomial for the (2(3)) chiral ligand partition of the octahedron corresponds to the square of the chirality polynomial of the (1(3)) chiral ligand partition of the polarized triangle, which likewise has three different ligands. Ligand partitions for octahedral metal complexes such as (2(2)1(2)), (21(4)), and (1(6)), which are less symmetrical than the lowest-degree chiral ligand partitions (31(3)) and (2(3)), lead to chiral octahedral metal complexes which are nonhanded. In such complexes, pairs of enantiomers can be interconverted by simple ligand interchanges without ever going through an achiral intermediate. 相似文献

Prediction of chiral separation for a compound using a chiral selector is an interesting and debatable work. For this purpose, in this study 23 chiral basic drugs with different chemical structures were selected as model solutes and the influence of their chemical structures on the enantioseparation in the presence of maltodextrin (MD) as chiral selector was investigated. For chiral separation, a 100‐mM phosphate buffer solution (pH 3.0) containing 10% (w/v) MD with dextrose equivalent (DE) of 4‐7 as chiral selector at the temperature of 25°C and voltage of 20 kV was used. Under this condition, baseline separation was achieved for nine chiral compounds and partial separation was obtained for another six chiral compounds while no enantioseparation was obtained for the remaining eight compounds. The results showed that the existence of at least two aromatic rings or cycloalkanes and an oxygen or nitrogen atom or –CN group directly bonded to the chiral center are necessary for baseline separation. With the obtained results in this study, chiral separation of a chiral compound can be estimated with MD‐modified capillary electrophoresis before analysis. This prediction will minimize the number of preliminary experiments required to resolve enantiomers and will save time and cost. Chirality 26:620–628, 2014. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Self-assembly plays an important role in the formation of many chiral biological structures and in the preparation of chiral functional materials. Therefore the control of chirality in synthetic or biological self-assembled systems is important either for the comprehension of recognition phenomena or to obtain materials with predictable and controllable properties. Circular dichroism was developed to study molecular chirality, however, because of its outstanding sensitivity to chiral perturbations of the system under investigation; it has been extended more recently to supramolecular chemistry. In particular, self-assembly processes leading to the formation of chiral supramolecular architectures (and eventually to gels or liquid crystal phases) can be monitored by CD. Furthermore, CD spectroscopy often allows one to obtain structural information on the assembled structures. This review deals with representative contributions to the study of supramolecular chirality by means of circular dichroism. 相似文献

Mass balancing in kinetic resolution: calculating yield and enantiomeric excess using chiral balance
When kinetic resolution is applied for the production of enantiomerically pure compounds, process options may be used which involve more than one chiral substrate and one chiral product, such as sequential or parallel enzymatic kinetic resolutions or hydrolysis of diastereomers. Although the relation between the yields (y) of the chiral compounds is straightforward in these cases, the relation between their enantiomeric excess (ee) values is not. Combining mass balances into a so-called chiral balance (Sigma y . ee(R) = 0) provides the relation between enantiomeric excess values in a useful manner. This chiral balance easily shows which nonmeasured enantiomeric excess values and yields can be calculated from measured values. The chiral balance is only valid when configurations at chiral centers are conserved. (c) 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The unique chirality of biomolecules is reviewed, and the prebiotic requirement for the absolute chiral homogeneity of such molecules prior to their capability of self-replication is emphasized. Biotic and abiotic theories embracing both chance and determinate mechanisms which have been proposed for the origin of terrestrial chiral molecules are briefly summarized and evaluated, as are abiotic mechanisms for the subsequent amplification of the small enantiomeric excesses (e.e.s) in the chiral molecules which might be formed by such processes. While amplification mechanisms are readily validated experimentally and are potentially viable on the primitive Earth, it is concluded that all terrestrial mechanisms proposed for the origin of chirality have one or more limitations which make them either intrinsically invalid or highly improbable in the chaotic and turbulent environment of the prebiotic Earth. To circumvent these difficulties we have proposed an extraterrestrial scenario for the production of terrestrial chirality in which circularly polarized synchrotron radiation from the neutron star remnant of a supernova interacts with the organic mantles on interstellar grains, producing chiral molecules by the partial asymmetric photolysis of racemic constituent in the mantles, after which the interstellar grains with their enantiomerically enriched mantles are transported to Earth either by direct accretion or through cometary impact. At this point one of the known terrestrial e.e. enrichment mechanisms could promote the small extraterrestrially produced e.e.s. into the state of chiral homogeneity required for self-replicating biomolecules. 相似文献

A new mode of interaction, to be termed chiral interaction, is proposed between chiral molecules such as proteins and polar solvents (H2O). Such a mode of interaction is well-recognized for macroscopic chiral devices, such as windmills or electric cells, and various media, such as wind or electrolyte. This mode of interaction requires several structural ingredients, all possessed by proteins, and its source is in ionic motion in the solvent. Such an interaction exists only for chiral objects or molecules and therefore possesses several peculiar and uncommon features, which may be of special biological significance. From a thermodynamical viewpoint this phenomenon is non-ergodic and time-irreversible, and therefore does not obey the principle of detailed balance. The energy content of this interaction is rather small and therefore it is to be regarded as a subthermal organization. Chiral interaction appears in the form of an intrinsic flow of perturbation or currents throughout the molecule and hence it is not easily observable. Two experiments are proposed for its observation. One is direct and the other is based on an assumption that couples chiral interaction with enzymatic activity. A model is proposed that links this interaction with the natural selection of the L-enantiomer of amino acids via the magnetic field of the earth. Several structural and other properties may obtain biological significance via the concept of chiral interaction. It is conjectured that chiral interaction may play a significant role in the control of protein activity. 相似文献

植物与手性化合物存在着非常密切的联系.一方面,植物分泌、合成的一些手性化合物,如糖甙、酶、萜类化合物、有机酸及植物激素等,在植物的生理生化过程中起着重要的作用;另一方面,人工合成的手性化合物尤其是农药等环境污染物与植物具有对映体选择性相互作用,它们或是选择性地抑制植物的生长和生理过程,或是被植物选择性地吸收和代谢.因此,在开发、生产和使用手性化合物时需要考虑植物与对映体之间的选择性因素;同时,合理利用植物对手性污染物进行环境修复也具有重要意义.本文对植物与手性化合物相互作用中的对映体选择性进行了综述,并对手性污染物的植物修复进行了展望. 相似文献

Several chiral Schiff-base ligands with sugar moieties at C-3 (3′) or C-5 (5′) of salicylaldehyde were synthesized from reaction of salicylaldehyde derivatives with diamine. These ligands coordinated with Mn(III) to afford the corresponding chiral salen-Mn(III) complexes characterized by FT-IR, MS, and elementary analysis. These complexes were used as catalysts for the asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalized alkenes. Only weak enantioselectivity is induced by the chiral sugar moieties at C-3 (3′) or C-5 (5′) in the case of absence of chirality in the diimine bridge moiety. It was also shown that the sugars at C-5 (5′) having the same rotation direction of polarized light as the diimine bridge in the catalyst could enhance the chiral induction in the asymmetric epoxidation, but the sugars with the opposite rotation direction would reduce the chiral induction. 相似文献

Probability rule for chiral recognition 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Molecular Chirality is of central interest in biological studies because enantiomeric compounds, while indistinguishable by most inanimate systems, show profoundly different properties in biochemical environments. Enantioselective separation methods, based on the differential recognition of two optical isomers by a chiral selector, have been amply documented. Also, great effort has been directed towards a theoretical understanding of the fundamental mechanisms underlying the chiral recognition process. Here we report a comprehensive data examination of enantio separation measurements for over 72000 chiral selector-select and pairs from the chiral selection compendium CHIRBASE. The distribution of alpha = k'(D)/k'(L) values was found to follow a power law, equivalent to an exponential decay for chiral differential free energies. This observation is experimentally relevant in terms of the number of different individual or combinatorial selectors that need to be screened in order to observe alpha values higher than a preset minimum. A string model for enantiorecognition (SMED) formalism is proposed to account for this observation on the basis of an extended Ogston three-point interaction model. Partially overlapping molecular interaction domains are analyzed in terms of a string complementarity model for ligand-receptor complementarity. The results suggest that chiral selection statistics may be interpreted in terms of more general concepts related to biomolecular recognition. 相似文献

If diastereomeric complexes are adsorbed on a surface or if they include a molecule of solvent, two points of attractive interaction between the chiral species of the complex can be sufficient for mutual chiral recognition of these species. In special cases even one single point of interaction is sufficient. This extension of the three-point contact rule of Dalgliesh, first observed in chiral ligand-exchange chromatography, can be demonstrated by using hands. 相似文献

This paper presents a systematic comparison of liquid chromatography (LC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) for Chiralcel OD and Chiralpak AD chiral stationary phases (CSPs), performed using various chiral compounds having a known or potential pharmaceutical activity. The chiral recognition mechanisms involved in LC and SFC for the enantiomeric separation of β-blockers have been studied more particularly. As a general rule, it appears that the presence of polar functions, like primary or secondary hydroxyl or amine functions, may result in marked discrepancies in selectivity between LC and SFC. This result is peculiar to cellulose- and amylose-derived CSPs, for which the interactions involved in chiral recognition mechanism are not always well balanced, contrary to what happens for independent CSPs. In the case of chiral resolution of polar solutes or polymer-type CSPs, the analyst should try both the LC and SFC techniques to be able to choose the more stereoselective one. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

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. 相似文献

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.

Capillary electromigration techniques are often considered ideal methods for enantioseparations due to their high separation selectivity and flexibility. Thus, numerous methods employing a chiral selector as pseudostationary phase in a background electrolyte have been developed and applied for the chiral analysis of drugs in bulk ware, pharmaceutical formulations and biological matrices. Furthermore, electromigration techniques have been combined with spectroscopic methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance in order to understand the complexation of analytes by chiral selectors. The present review focuses on recent developments and applications of chiral electromigration techniques in pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis including examples illustrating analyte–selector complex formation or mechanistic studies which have been published between January 2009 and July 2011. Selector-mediated chiral separations clearly dominate while no applications of capillary electrochromatography to pharmaceutical or biomedical analysis have been reported during this period of time. 相似文献

Novel chiral ionic liquid stationary phases based on chiral imidazolium were prepared. The ionic liquid chiral selector was synthesized by ring opening of cyclohexene oxide with imidazole or 5,6‐dimethylbenzimidazole, and then chemically modified by different substitute groups. Chiral stationary phases were prepared by bonding to the surface of silica sphere through thioene “click” reaction. Their enantioselective separations of chiral acids were evaluated by high‐performance liquid chromatography. The retention of acid sample was related to the counterion concentration and showed a typical ion exchange process. The chiral separation abilities of chiral stationary phases were greatly influenced by the substituent group on the chiral selector as well as the mobile phase, which indicated that, besides ion exchange, other interactions such as steric hindrance, π‐π interaction, and hydrogen bonding are important for the enantioselectivity. In this report, the influence of bulk solvent components, the effects of varying concentration, and the type of the counterion as well as the proportion of acid and basic additives were investigated in detail. 相似文献
