Abstract: | The chromatographic chiral resolution of 4-aryl-1,4-dihydropyridines ( 1–32 ), 4-aryl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines ( 33–38 ), and 4-aryl-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines ( 39–41 ) was studied on a tetraproline-immobilized chiral column synthesized in our lab. This tetraproline chiral stationary phase can resolve most of these compounds. The 4-aryl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines ( 33–38 ) and 4-aryl-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines ( 39–41 ) were more efficiently resolved than the racemic 4-aryl-1,4-dihydropyridines on the tetraproline chiralstationary phase. Analytes with 5,5-dimethyl groups ( 39–41 ) were less efficiently resolved than analytes without 5,5-dimethyl substituents ( 1–16 ). The 4-aryl-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines ( 39–41 ) without a sulfur atom were much more efficiently resolved than 4-aryl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines ( 33–38 ). No obvious electronic effects on the resolution of any of these analytes ( 1–41 ) were observed on the tetraproline chiral stationary phase. The tetraproline chiral stationary phase separated enantiomers mainly via hydrogen bonding interactions. Chirality, 2013. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. |
