Chiral stationary phases consisting of axially dissymmetric 2′-substituted-1,1′-binaphthyl-2-carboxylic acids bonded to silica gel for high-performance liquid chromatographic separation of enantiomers

Cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-based chiral stationary phases as effective tools for enantioselective HPLC separation of structurally different disubstituted binaphthyls

Cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-based chiral stationary phases (CSPs) were used for a study of the HPLC retention and enantioseparation behavior of 2,2'-disubstituted or 3,2,2'-trisubstituted 1,1'-binaphthyls and 8,3'-disubstituted 1,2'-binaphthyls. The effects of the mobile phase composition in normal- (NP) and reversed-phase (RP) separation modes were investigated. The NP mobile phases contained n-hexane and propane-2-ol at various volume ratios, the RP ones were obtained by mixing acetonitrile with water or a 20 mM phosphate buffer of pH 6.0 or 3.0. The RP separation mode has been found more suitable for enantioresolution of most of the analytes. The best enantioseparation of 2,2'-diacetyl-1,1'-binaphthyl, 2-hydroxy-2'-(phenylamino)-1,1'-binaphthyl-3-carboxylic acid and 2-amino-2'-hydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyl-3-carboxylic acid was obtained in the mobile phase of ACN/20 mM phosphate buffer, pH 3.0, 40/60 (v/v), whereas N-(2'-hydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyl-2-yl)acetamide, N-(3'-methoxy-1,2'-binaphthyl-8-yl)acetamide, and N-(3'-hydroxy-1,2'-binaphthyl-8-yl)acetamide yielded better results in ACN/water at the same v/v ratio. The analyte-CSP interaction mechanism was found to be temperature independent but the enantioresolution improved at an elevated temperature. The mechanism of the enantioselective discrimination is discussed on the basis of the thermodynamic parameters obtained. Semi-preparative separation conditions have been proposed for 2-amino-2'-hydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyl-3-carboxylic acid, N-(3'-methoxy-1,2'-binaphthyl-8-yl)acetamide, and N-(3'-hydroxy-1,2'-binaphthyl-8-yl)acetamide.

Synthesis and HPLC evaluation of carboxylic acid phases on a hydride surface

Three organic moieties containing carboxylic acid functional groups are attached to a particulate silica surface through silanization/hydrosilation. Two compounds (undecylenic acid and 10-undecynoic acid) have 11 carbon chains and the other is a five-carbon acid (pentenoic acid). Bonding is confirmed through carbon elemental analysis, diffuse reflectance infrared fourier transform spectroscopy, and carbon-13 and silicon-29 CP-MAS NMR spectroscopy. The bonded phases are tested by HPLC using PTH amino acids, nucleic acids, theophylline-related compounds, anilines, benzoic acid compounds, choline, and tobramycin. The latter two compounds are used to investigate the aqueous normal phase properties of the three bonded materials.
