Abstract
In this study, we present the development of a loop-based two-dimensional supercritical fluid system in multiple heart-cutting modes (mSFC-SFC), with diode-array and mass spectrometric detection. The instrument design was developed to be as simple as possible, based on a single SFC instrument, with the sole addition of three external 2-port 6-position valves. The objective was to achieve the most complete transfer of a peak from the first to the second dimension, whatever the composition of the mobile phase, i.e., whatever the proportion of carbon dioxide and methanol cosolvent along a wide gradient elution. Thanks to fine adjustment of the valve switching times, the first-dimension peaks were parked in 50 μL or 100 μL loops and later discharged to the second dimension. The interest of this instrument was then demonstrated with a sample application on a natural product: an extract of Citrus aurantium L. bark was analyzed, with a particular focus on chiral flavonoids, neohesperidin, and naringin. In this system, the first dimension was an achiral separation of the flavonoids, based on a polar diethylamine-bonded silica stationary phase (ACQUITY Torus DEA), while the second dimension used a stereoselective polysaccharide stationary phase (CHIRALPAK IB-3) to resolve flavonoid diastereomers. Excellent repeatability was demonstrated, with relative standard deviation values on retention times and peak areas all below 2%, together with excellent peak capacity and peak shapes (no distortion observed), making it possible to quantify diastereomers in the second-dimension separation. This good repeatability was also shown for the transfer rate between the two dimensions, which reached a value of 83%. Finally, transferring a compressible sample from the first to the second dimension is demonstrated to yield excellent performance, despite the large loop volume.

Abstract
The key role of chiral small molecules in drug discovery programs has been deeply investigated throughout last decades. In this context, our previous studies highlighted the influence of the absolute configuration of different stereocenters on the pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and functional properties of promising Sigma receptor (SR) modulators. Thus, starting from the racemic SR ligand RC752, we report herein the isolation of the enantiomers via enantioselective separation with both HPLC and SFC. After optimization of the eco-sustainable chiral SFC method, both enantiomers were obtained in sufficient amount (tens of mg) and purity (ee up to 95%) to allow their characterization and initial biological investigation. Both enantiomers a) displayed a high affinity for the S1R subtype (Ki = 15.0 ± 1.7 and 6.0 ± 1.2 nM for the (S)- and (R)-enantiomer, respectively), but only negligible affinity toward the S2R (> 350 nM), and b) were rapidly metabolized when incubated with mouse and human hepatic microsomes. Furthermore, the activity on AQP-mediated water permeability indicated a different functional profile for the enantiomers in terms of modulatory effect on the peroxiporins gating.

Controlling the elution order of insulin and its analogs in sub-/supercritical fluid chromatography using methanesulfonic acid and 18-crown-6 as mobile phase additives. J Sep Sci 2023; 46:e2300520.

Abstract
The purity analysis of therapeutic peptides can often be challenging, demanding the application of more than a single analytical technique. Supercritical fluid chromatography nowadays is a promising alternative to reversed-phase liquid chromatography, providing orthogonal and complementary information. This study investigated its applicability for the separation of human insulin, its analogs and degradation products. A previously published method development protocol for peptides up to 2000 Da was successfully applied to the higher molecular weight insulins (6 kDa). A single gradient method was optimized for all insulins using a Torus DEA column (100 × 3.0 mm, 1.7 μm), carbon dioxide and a modifier consisting of methanol/acetonitrile/water/methanesulfonic acid (65:35:2:0.1, v/v/v/v). Consecutively, the crown ether 18-crown-6, which is well known to complex charged lysine sidechains and other amino functionalities, was added to the modifier to evaluate its impact on selectivity. A decreased retention and a shift in the elution order for the insulins were observed. An inverse effect on retention was found when combined with a neutral stationary phase chemistry (Viridis BEH).

Abstract
Correlation of elution performance between reversed phase countercurrent chromatography and liquid chromatography was investigated using five selected natural components. Theoretical guidance for orthogonality of two-dimensional countercurrent chromatography and liquid chromatography was proposed. The difference in retention behavior between countercurrent chromatography and liquid chromatography was studied when the mobile phase was composed of methanol and water by measuring the partition behavior of five selected compounds in two typical biphasic solvent systems composed of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water and chloroform-methanol-water. An orthogonal diagram between countercurrent chromatography and liquid chromatography was obtained by normalized treatment of the measured partition coefficients and capacity factors. The experimental results showed that each biphasic solvent system used for countercurrent chromatography had a high orthogonality with liquid chromatography when a specific volume ratio was used.

Abstract
Nanospraying supercritical fluids coupled to a mass spectrometer (nSF-MS) using a 90% supercritical fluid CO2 carrier (sCO2) has shown an enhanced desolvation compared to traditional liquid eluents. Capillaries of 25, 50, and 75 μm internal diameter (i.d.) with pulled emitter tips provided high MS detection sensitivity. Presented here is an evaluation of the effect of proton affinity, hydrophobicity, and nanoemitter tip size on the nSF-MS signal. This was done using a set of primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary amines with butyl, hexyl, octyl, and decyl chains as analytes. Each amine class was analyzed individually to evaluate hydrophobicity and proton affinity effects on signal intensity. The system has shown a mass sensitive detection on a linear dynamic range of 0.1-100 μM. Results indicate that hydrophobicity has a larger effect on the signal response than proton affinity. Nanospraying a mixture of all amine classes using the 75 μm emitter has shown a quaternary amine signal not suppressed by competing analytes. Competing ionization was observed for primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. The 75 and 50 μm emitters demonstrated increased signal with increasing hydrophobicity. Surprisingly, the 25 μm i.d. emitter yielded a signal decrease as the alkyl chain length increased, contrary to conventional understanding. Nanospraying the evaporative fluid in a sub-500 nm emitter likely resulted in differences in the ionization mechanism. Results suggest that 90% sCO2 with 9.99% methanol and 0.01% formic acid yielded fast desolvation, high ionization efficiency, and low matrix effect, which could benefit complex biological matrix analysis.

Two-dimensional reversed phase-normal phase liquid chromatography for simultaneous achiral-chiral analysis to support high-throughput experimentation. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1692:463820.

Abstract
Typical chromatographic analysis of chiral compounds requires the use of achiral methods to evaluate impurities or related substances along with separate methods to evaluate chiral purity. The use of two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) to support simultaneous achiral-chiral analysis has become increasingly advantageous in the field of high-throughput experimentation where low reaction yields or side reactions can lead to challenging direct chiral analysis. Advancements in multi-dimensional chromatography have led to the development of robust 2D-LC instrumentation with reversed phase solvent systems (RPLC-RPLC) enabling this simultaneous analysis, eliminating the need to purify crude reaction mixtures to determine stereoselectivity. However, when chiral RPLC cannot separate a chiral impurity from the desired product, there are few viable commercial options. The coupling of NPLC to RPLC (RPLC-NPLC) continues to remain elusive due to solvent immiscibility between the two solvent systems. This solvent incompatibility leads to lack of retention, band broadening, poor resolution, poor peak shapes, and baseline issues in the second dimension. A study was conducted to understand the effect of various water-containing injections on NPLC and applied to the development of robust RPLC-NPLC methods. Following thoughtful consideration and modifications to the design of a 2D-LC system in regards to mobile phase selection, sample loop sizing, targeted mixing, and solvent compatibility, proof of concept has been demonstrated with the development of reproducible RPLC-NPLC 2D-LC methods to perform simultaneous achiral-chiral analysis. Second dimension NPLC method performance proved comparable to corresponding 1D-NPLC methods with excellent percent difference in enantiomeric excess results ≤ 1.09% and adequate limits of quantitation down to 0.0025 mg/mL for injection volumes of 2 µL, or 5 ng on-column.

Abstract
An off-line multidimensional method involving liquid chromatography combined with supercritical fluid chromatography was developed for the characterization of the wastewater of hydrothermal liquefaction of microalgae Chlorella sorokiniana. The first dimension consisted of a phenyl hexyl column operated in reversed-phase mode, whereas the second dimension was performed on a diol stationary phase. Optimization of the kinetic parameters of the first and second dimensions were performed, taking into account the fraction collection system. The beneficial effect of working at high flow rate in both dimensions, as well as the need to work with short columns (50 mm) in the second dimension was evidenced. Injection volume was also optimized in both dimensions. The first dimension benefited from on-column focusing, while in the second dimension, untreated water-rich fractions could be injected without peak deformation. The performances of offline LCxSFC were compared to LC-HRMS, SFC-HRMS and LCxLC-HRMS for the analysis of the wastewater. Despite a long analysis time of 3.3h, the off-line separation coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry exhibited a very large orthogonality with 75 % occupation rate of the separation space, reaching an effective peak capacity of 1050. While other evaluated techniques were faster, one-dimensional techniques failed to separate the numerous isomers while LCxLC exhibited lower orthogonality (45% occupation rate).

Abstract
The greatest challenge in the analysis of herbal components lies in their variety and complexity. Therefore, efficient analytical tools for the separation and qualitative and quantitative analysis of multi-components are essential. In recent years, various emerging analytical techniques have offered significant support for complicated component analysis, with breakthroughs in selectivity, sensitivity, and rapid analysis. Among these techniques, supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has attracted much attention because of its high column efficiency and environmental protection. SFC can be used to analyze a wide range of compounds, including non-polar and polar compounds, making it a prominent analytical platform. The applicability of SFC for the separation and determination of natural products in herbal medicines is overviewed in this article. The range of applications was expanded through the selection and optimization of stationary phases and mobile phases. We also focus on the two-dimensional SFC analysis. This paper provides new insight into SFC method development for herbal medicine analysis.

Abstract
A supercritical fluid chromatography with electrochemical detection system was developed for the simultaneous determination of tocopherol and tocotrienol isomers. The supercritical fluid chromatography with electrochemical detection system was connected with an additional pump to create a flow path to add a supporting electrolyte solution. The supporting electrolyte solution was mixed with a mobile phase in a post-column fashion, enabling the independent control of the separation and detection. After optimization of the measurement conditions, vitamin E isomers and an internal standard substance (2,2,5,7,8-pentamethyl-6-hydroxychroman) were separated within 30 min using a mixture of supercritical carbon dioxide and methanol (99:1, v/v) as a mobile phase and a cyanopropyl column (4.6 mm inner diameter × 250 mm length, 5 μm). For the electrochemical detection, methanol containing 1.0 mol/L ammonium acetate was used as a supporting electrolyte solution and the applied potential was set at +0.8 V. This analytical method showed good linearity (5 to 100 μg/mL) and repeatability (less than 2.5% relative standard deviation (n = 6)) and was applicable to the determination of tocopherol and tocotrienol isomers in nutrition supplements.

Abstract
The separation of structural analogues in natural products has always been one of the challenges in separation science, where supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) with chiral stationary phases (CSPs) is an unconventional but potential solution. In this study, a preparative two-dimensional chiral SFC (2D cSFC) method that was established with two kinds of CSPs was applied in the isolation of the aliphatic acid derivatives in Piper kadsura (P. kadsura). The RPLC unseparated peaks of two samples A and B of P. kadsura were evenly scattered on the CSP-1 column while they clustered into two groups on the CSP-2 column by SFC. There was impressively complementary selectivity between CSP-1 and CSP-2, which were used for construction of 2D cSFC. The first dimension (1D) separation with CSP-1 fractionated the sample A into six parts by a heart-cutting method and the sample B into nine parts for a comprehensive 2D analysis; then 29 and 71 peaks were respectively found in these parts in the second dimension (2D) separation with CSP-2. Further through 2D preparative separation, 19 high purity components were obtained, and the chemical structures of two of them were confirmed, including a novel unsaturated aliphatic acid compound (8Z,10Z)-12-methoxyheptadeca-8,10-dienoic acid and a known octadecadienoic acid lactone Lactariolide. The 2D cSFC method presented the superiority of separating the achiral compounds of complex samples.

Abstract
The coupling of columns in sub/supercritical fluid chromatography presents a great opportunity for influencing the separation efficiency and extending the selectivity of the separation system. Combinations of different types of chiral stationary phases could positively affect the enantioresolution if single ones are complementary to each other. In this work, two superficially porous particle (2.7 μm) macrocyclic glycopeptide-based columns, namely TeicoShell and NicoShell, were serially coupled and tested in sub/supercritical fluid chromatography for the first time. The influence of the column arrangement on the enantioseparation of structurally diverse biologically active compounds was examined. The obtained results showed how the column order crucially affected the enantioresolution of compounds tested, but the retention was negligibly affected in most cases. We also demonstrated that single TeicoShell and NicoShell columns are very promising towards the development of highly efficient and fast/ultrafast sub/supercritical fluid chromatography methods for structurally different chiral compounds. The optimized methods for sub-minute enantioselective separation of certain biologically important compounds were proposed.

Abstract
Like many biological compounds, proteins are found primarily in their homochiral form. However, homochirality is not guaranteed throughout life. Determining their chiral proteinogenic sequence is a complex analytical challenge. This is because certain d-amino acids contained in proteins play a role in human health and disease. This is the case, for example, with d-Asp in elastin, β-amyloid and α-crystallin which, respectively, have an action on arteriosclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease and cataracts. Sequence-dependent and sequence-independent are the two strategies for detecting the presence and position of d-amino acids in proteins. These methods rely on enzymatic digestion by a site-specific enzyme and acid hydrolysis in a deuterium or tritium environment to limit the natural racemization of amino acids. In this review, chromatographic and electrophoretic techniques, such as LC, SFC, GC and CE, will be recently developed (2018–2020) for the enantioseparation of amino acids and peptides. For future work, the discovery and development of new chiral stationary phases and derivatization reagents could increase the resolution of chiral separations.
