Abstract Enantiomer separations were performed on three ,-cyclodextrin-based chiral stationary phases (CSP) containing the pernaphthylcarbamoylated ,-cyclodextrin (CSP 1), peracetylated ,-cyclodextrin (CSP 2) and permethylated ,-cyclodextrin (CSP 3) as chiral selectors by capillary liquid chromatography and pressure-assisted capillary electrochromatography in this study. Triethylammonium acetate/MeOH or phosphate buffer/MeOH was used as the mobile phase. The experimental factors affecting chiral separations have been examined for each CSP, including pH of the buffers, methanol content and applied voltage. Under optimal separation conditions, a number of racemic compounds were resolved into their enantiomers on three cyclodextrin-based CSP. A comparative study on the performance of three CSP revealed the presence of carbonyl functional groups as well as aromatic rings in the cyclodextrin derivatives, enhanced the interaction between the analytes and CSP, and thus improved enantioselectivity of the CSP.

Preparation of novel acrylamide-based thermoresponsive polymer analogues and their application as thermoresponsive chromatographic matrices

Abstract New thermoresponsive polymers based on poly(N -(N, -alkylcarbamido)propyl methacrylamide) analogues were designed with increased hydrophobic content to facilitate temperature-dependent chromatographic separations of peptides and proteins from aqueous mobile phases. These polymer solution exhibited a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) when the alkyl group is methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, propyl, butyl, and isobutyl. However, larger alkyl groups such as hexyl and phenyl were not soluble in aqueous solutions at any temperature. Phase transition temperatures were lower for larger alkyl groups and increased with decreasing polymer molecular weight and concentration in solution. LCST dependence on polymer molecular weight and concentration is more significant compared with well-studied poly(N -isopropylacrylamide) (PIPAAm). Partition coefficient (log P) values for N -(N, -butylcarbamide)propylmethacrylamide and N -(N, -isobutylcarbamide)propyl methacrylamide (iBuCPMA) monomers are larger than that for IPAAm monomer, suggesting higher hydrophobicity than IPAAm. Chromatographic evaluation of poly(N -(N, -isobutylcarbamide)propyl methacrylamide) (PiBuCPMA) grafted silica particles in aqueous separations revealed larger k, values for peptides, insulin, insulin chain B, and angiotensin I than PIPAAm-grafted silica beads. In particular, k, values for insulin obtained from PiBuCPMA-grafted silica separations were much larger than those from PIPAAm-grafted surface separations, indicating that PiBuCPMA should be more hydrophobic than PIPAAm. These results support the introduction of alkylcarbamido groups to efficiently increase thermoresponsive polymer hydrophobicity of poly(N -alkylacrylamides) and poly(N -alkylmethacrylamides). Consequently, poly(N -(N, -alkylcarbamido)propyl methacrylamide) analogues such as PiBuCPMA and poly(N -(N, -alkylcarbamido)alkylmehacrylamide) are new thermoresponsive polymers with appropriate hydrophobic partitioning properties for protein and peptide separations in aqueous media, depending on selection of their alkyl groups. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation of a stationary phase with s -triazine ring embedded group for reversed phase high-performance LC

JOURNAL OF SEPARATION SCIENCE, JSS, Issue 19 2010

Abstract This paper describes the synthesis and chromatographic evaluation of a new polar-embedded stationary phase, which utilized 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine as the spacer. The resulting materials were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and solid-state 13C NMR. Empirical test mixtures were utilized to evaluate the column, and showed that it had good performance for basic compounds and high selectivity for polyaromatic hydrocarbons. Moreover, the novel stationary phase has unique property, especially in the separation of "homologous alkaloids" from natural products. [source]


Novel cinchona carbamate selectors with complementary enantioseparation characteristics for N-acylated amino acids

CHIRALITY, Issue S1 2003
Karl Heinz Krawinkler
Abstract The synthesis and chromatographic evaluation of the enantiomer separation capabilities of covalently immobilized calix[4]arene-cinchona carbamate hybrid type receptors derived from quinine (QN) and its corresponding C9-epimer (eQN) in different solvents are reported. The receptors display complementary enantiomer separation profiles in terms of elution order, chiral substrate specificity, and mobile phase characteristics, indicating the existence of two distinct chiral recognition mechanisms. The QN-derived receptor binds the (S)-enantiomers of N-acylated amino acids more strongly, shows preferential recognition of open-chained amino acids, and superior enantioselectivity in polar media such as methanol/acetic acid. In contrast, the eQN congener preferentially recognizes the corresponding (R)-enantiomers, displays good enantioselectivity (, up to 1.74) for cyclic amino acids, and enhanced stereodiscriminating properties in apolar mobile phases, e.g., chloroform/acetic acid. A comparison of the enantiomer separation profiles with those of the corresponding QN and eQN tert -butyl carbamate congeners indicates no significant level of cooperativity between the calix[4]arene module and the cinchona units in terms of overall chiral recognition, most probably as a consequence of residual conformational flexibility of the calixarene module and the carbamate linkage.
