Dobó M, Dombi G, Köteles I, Fiser B, Kis C, Szabó ZI, Tóth G. Simultaneous Determination of Enantiomeric Purity and Organic Impurities of Dexketoprofen Using Reversed-Phase Liquid Chromatography-Enhancing Enantioselectivity through Hysteretic Behavior and Temperature-Dependent Enantiomer Elution Order Reversal on Polysaccharide Chiral Stationary Phases. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2697. [PMID: 38473945 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25052697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the potential impurities of dexketoprofen, including the distomer R-ketoprofen. After screening the separation capability of four polysaccharide columns (Lux Amylose-1, Lux Amylose-2, Lux Cellulose-1 and Lux Cellulose-2) in polar organic and in reversed-phase modes, appropriate enantioseparation was observed only on the Lux Amylose-2 column in an acidified acetonitrile/water mixture. A detailed investigation of the mobile phase composition and temperature for enantio- and chemoselectivity showed many unexpected observations. It was observed that both the resolution and the enantiomer elution order can be fine-tuned by varying the temperature and mobile phase composition. Moreover, hysteresis of the retention times and enantioselectivity was also observed in reversed-phase mode using methanol/water mixtures on amylose-type columns. This could indicate that the three-dimensional structure of the amylose column can change by transitioning from a polar organic to a reversed-phase mode, which affects the enantioseparation process. Temperature-dependent enantiomer elution order and rare enthalpic/entropic controlled enantioseparation in the operative temperature range were also observed in reversed-phase mode. To find the best methodological conditions for the determination of dexketoprofen impurities, a full factorial optimization design was performed. Using the optimized parameters (Lux Amylose-2 column with water/acetonitrile/acetic acid 50/50/0.1 (v/v/v) at a 1 mL/min flow rate at 20 °C), baseline separations were achieved between all compounds within 15 min. Our newly developed HPLC method was validated according to the current guidelines, and its application was tested on commercially available pharmaceutical formulations. According to the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to report hysteretic behavior on polysaccharide columns in reversed-phase mode.

The Applicability of Chromatographic Retention Modeling on Chiral Stationary Phases in Reverse-Phase Mode: A Case Study for Ezetimibe and Its Impurities. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:16097. [PMID: 38003286 PMCID: PMC10671152 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242216097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Mechanistic modeling is useful for predicting and modulating selectivity even in early chromatographic method development. This approach is also in accordance with current analytical quality using design principles and is highly welcomed by the authorities. The aim of this study was to investigate the separation behavior of two different types of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for the separation of ezetimibe and its related substances using the mechanistic retention modeling approach offered by the Drylab software (version 4.5) package. Based on the obtained results, both CSPs presented with chemoselectivity towards the impurities of ezetimibe. The cyclodextrin-based CSP displayed a higher separation capacity and was able to separate seven related substances from the active pharmaceutical ingredient, while the cellulose-based column enabled the baseline resolution of six impurities from ezetimibe. Generally, the accuracy of predicted retention times was lower for the polysaccharide CSP, which could indicate the presence of additional secondary interactions between the analytes and the CSP. It was also demonstrated that the combination of mechanistic modeling and an experimental design approach can be applied to method development on CSPs in reverse-phase mode. The applicability of the methods was tested on spiked artificial placebo samples, while intraday and long-term (2 years) method repeatability was also challenged through comparing the obtained retention times and resolution values. The results indicated the excellent robustness of the selected setpoints. Overall, our findings indicate that the chiral columns could offer orthogonal selectivity to traditional reverse-phase columns for the separation of structurally similar compounds.

Abstract
Chirality is a common phenomenon in nature. Different enantiomers of chiral drug compounds have obvious differences in their effects on the human body. Therefore, the separation of chiral drugs plays an extremely important role in the safe utilization of drugs. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is an effective tool for the separation and analysis of compounds, in which the chromatographic packing plays a key role in the separation. Chiral pharmaceutical separation and analysis in HPLC rely on chiral stationary phases (CSPs). Thus, various CSPs are being developed to meet the needs of chiral drug separation and analysis. In this review, recent developments in CSPs, including saccharides (cyclodextrin, cellulose, amylose and chitosan), macrocycles (macrocyclic glycopeptides, pillar[n]arene and polyamide) and porous organic materials (metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, and porous organic cages), for pharmaceutical analysis in HPLC were summarized, the advantages and disadvantages of various stationary phases were introduced, and their development prospects were discussed.

Abstract
A new, reversed-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the dipeptidyl-peptidase-IV-inhibitor antidiabetic drug vildagliptin (VIL) enantiomeric impurity and four other achiral related impurities. An initial screening was performed on five polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phases (Lux Amylose-1, Lux Amylose-2, Lux-Cellulose-1, Lux-Cellulose-2, Lux-Cellulose-3) in polar organic mode with methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, or acetonitrile containing 0,1% diethylamine as mobile phase to identify the best conditions for the separation of VIL enantiomers. Lux-Cellulose-2 column was found to provide the best chiral resolution for VIL enantiomers. Further experiments were conducted using different aqueous-organic mobile phases to achieve the simultaneous chiral-achiral separation of the selected compounds. Experimental design-based optimization was performed by using a face-centered central composite design. The optimal separation conditions (Lux Cellulose-2 stationary phase, 45 °C, mobile phase consisting of methanol/water/diethylamine 80:20:0.2 (v/v/v), and 0.45 mL/min flow rate) provided baseline separation for all 6 compounds. The optimized method was validated according to the ICH guideline and proved to be reliable, specific, linear, precise, and accurate for the determination of at least 0.1% for all impurities in VIL samples. The validated method was applied for determinations from a commercially available drug formulation and proved to be suitable for routine quality control of both enantiomeric and organic impurities of VIL.

Abstract
The chiral separation capability of Chiral-CD-Ph column, containing phenylcarbamate-β-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector in polar organic mode was investigated. A total of twenty-five compounds with different structures and acid-base properties were evaluated, and twenty of them were separated using acetonitrile or methanol as eluent. The effects of various chromatographic parameters, such as the type and proportion of organic modifier, flow rate, and column temperature were analyzed in detail in relation to chromatographic performance. A U-shape retention curve was observed when a mixture of acetonitrile and methanol was used as the eluent, indicating different types of interactions in different solvent mixtures. Van 't Hoff analysis was used for calculation of thermodynamic parameters which revealed that the enantioseparation is mainly enthalpy controlled; however, entropic control was also observed. The enantiomer recognition ability at the atomic level was also investigated through a molecular docking study, which revealed surface binding in polar organic mode instead of inclusion complexation. Our work proves that the phenylcarbamate-β-cyclodextrin-based chiral stationary phase can be effectively used in polar organic mode for the chiral separation of structurally diverse compounds. Furthermore, it is important to note that our study demonstrated that surface binding is responsible for the formation of supramolecular complexes in certain cyclodextrin derivatives.

Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the related substances-three potential synthesis-related chemical impurities and the distomer-of escitalopram. The separation capacity of seven different polysaccharide-type chiral columns, including three amylose-based (Lux Amylose-1, Lux i-Amylose-1, Lux Amylose-2) and four cellulose-based columns (Lux Cellulose-1, Lux Cellulose-2, Lux Cellulose-3, and Lux Cellulose-4) were screened in the polar organic and reversed-phase modes. Lux Cellulose-1, based on cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) as the chiral selector with an acetonitrile-water mixture containing 0.1% diethylamine was identified as the most promising separation system. Using the "one factor at a time" optimization approach, the effect of column temperature, flow rate, and mobile phase constituents on separation performance was evaluated, and the critical resolution values were determined. A U-shaped retention pattern was obtained when plotting the retention factors of the citalopram enantiomers versus the water content of the binary mobile phases on the Lux Cellulose-1 column. A thermodynamic analysis revealed enthalpy-driven enantioseparation in both the polar organic and reversed-phase modes. For further method optimizations, an L9 orthogonal array table was employed. Using the optimized parameters (Lux Cellulose-1 column with 0.1% (v/v) diethylamine in water/acetonitrile 55/45 (v/v); 0.8 mL/min flow rate at 25 °C), baseline separations were achieved between all compounds. Our newly developed HPLC method was validated according to the ICH guidelines and its application was tested with a commercially available pharmaceutical formulation. The method proved to be suitable for routine quality control of related substances and the enantiomeric purity of escitalopram.

Abstract
Ivabradine (S-ivabradine) is a contemporary antihypertensive drug designed and commercialized for cardiovascular diseases treatment over the world. In this work the enantiomer-specific stability and acute toxicity of ivabradine to the marine bacterium Vibrio fischeri as well as the potential mechanism of action were investigated for the first time. With this aim, real concentrations of ivabradine enantiomers under abiotic and biotic conditions were determined by Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) with cyclodextrins (CDs) as chiral selectors. A moderate chiral stability without enantiomeric interconversion was observed for ivabradine. The bioluminescence inhibition method revealed an enantioselective toxicity of ivabradine to marine bacterium. The order of ecotoxicity was R-ivabradine < racemic ivabradine < S-ivabradine with EC50 (t = 5 min) values about 75.98, 11.11 and 7.93 mg/L, respectively. Confocal Live/Dead stained images showed that bacterial envelops cells were seriously damaged after exposure to S-ivabradine. S-ivabradine also disturbed the esterase activity and significantly increased the ROS level compared with the control. Thus, oxidative stress originating membrane cells damage and enzymatic activity changes was shown to be the primary mechanism of S-ivabradine toxicity to marine bacterium. Our results highlight the need for more eco-toxicological evaluations of the cardiovascular drug S-ivabradine on other aquatic organisms to establish the risk on the environment.

Abstract
Most molecules with therapeutic value have at least one chiral center, requiring resolution of both achiral and chiral impurities. Separate achiral and chiral methods are the most used methodologies, but two-dimensional (2D) methods and columns in series have also been implemented. Having a mixed-mode column that can provide both achiral and chiral resolution in one-dimension (1D) would significantly improve impurity profile understanding and reduce testing workload.

Abstract
A novel, validated, reversed-phase (RP), chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for the enantiopurity control analysis of naproxen, a frequently used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent using polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phase (CSP). In the screening phase of method development, seven columns were tested in polar organic (PO) mode using mobile phases consisting of 0.1% acetic acid in methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, and acetonitrile. Enantiorecognition was observed only in five cases. The best enantioseparation was observed on a Lux Amylose-1 column with 0.1% (v/v) acetic acid in ethanol with a resolution (Rs) of 1.24. The enantiomer elution order was unfavorable, as the distomer eluted after the eutomer. When the ethanolic mobile phase was supplemented with water, enantiomer elution order reversal was observed, indicating a difference in the enantiorecognition mechanism upon switching from PO to RP mode. Furthermore, by changing ethanol to methanol, not only lower backpressure, but also higher resolution was obtained. Subsequent method optimization was performed using a face-centered central composite design (FCCD) to achieve higher chiral resolution in a shorter analysis time. Optimized parameters offering baseline separation were as follows: Lux Amylose-1 stationary phase, thermostated at 40 °C, and a mobile phase consisting of methanol:water:acetic acid 85:15:0.1 (v/v/v), delivered with 0.65 mL/min flow rate. Using these optimized parameters, a Rs = 3.21 ± 0.03 was achieved within seven minutes. The optimized method was validated according to the ICH guidelines and successfully applied for the analysis of different pharmaceutical preparations, such as film-coated tablets and gel, as well as fixed-dose combination tablets, containing both naproxen and esomeprazole.

Comparative Chiral Separation of Thalidomide Class of Drugs Using Polysaccharide-Type Stationary Phases with Emphasis on Elution Order and Hysteresis in Polar Organic Mode. Molecules 2021; 27:molecules27010111. [PMID: 35011343 PMCID: PMC8746373 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27010111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Revised: 12/16/2021] [Accepted: 12/22/2021] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The enantioseparation of four phthalimide derivatives (thalidomide, pomalidomide, lenalidomide and apremilast) was investigated on five different polysaccharide-type stationary phases (Chiralpak AD, Chiralpak AS, Lux Amylose-2, Chiralcel OD and Chiralcel OJ-H) using neat methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH), 1-propanol (PROP), 2-propanol (IPA) and acetonitrile (ACN) as polar organic mobile phases and also in combination. Along with the separation capacity of the applied systems, our study also focuses on the elution sequences, the effect of mobile phase mixtures and the hysteresis of retention and selectivity. Although on several cases extremely high resolutions (Rs > 10) were observed for certain compounds, among the tested conditions only Chiralcel OJ-H column with MeOH was successful for baseline-separation of all investigated drugs. Chiral selector- and mobile-phase-dependent reversals of elution order were observed. Reversal of elution order and hysteresis of retention and enantioselectivity were further investigated using different eluent mixtures on Chiralpak AD, Chiralcel OD and Lux Amylose-2 column. In an IPA/MeOH mixture, enantiomer elution-order reversal was observed depending on the eluent composition. Furthermore, in eluent mixtures, enantioselectivity depends on the direction from which the composition of the eluent is approached, regardless of the eluent pair used on amylose-based columns. Using a mixture of polar alcohols not only the selectivities but the enantiomer elution order can also be fine-tuned on Chiralpak AD column, which opens up the possibility of a new type of chiral screening strategy.

Abstract
Current pharmaceutical research directions tend to follow a systematic approach in the field of applied research and development. The concept of quality-by-design (QbD) has been the focus of the current progress of pharmaceutical sciences. It is based on, but not limited, to risk assessment, design of experiments and other computational methods and process analytical technology. These tools offer a well-organized methodology, both to identify and analyse the hazards that should be handled as critical, and are therefore applicable in the control strategy. Once implemented, the QbD approach will augment the comprehension of experts concerning the developed analytical technique or manufacturing process. The main activities are oriented towards the identification of the quality target product profiles, along with the critical quality attributes, the risk management of these and their analysis through in silico aided methods. This review aims to offer an overview of the current standpoints and general applications of QbD methods in pharmaceutical development.

[PMID: 34299597 PMCID: PMC8307936 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26144322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, and their derivatives, particularly of amylose, cellulose, chitosan, and β-cyclodextrin, are well-known chiral selectors (CSs) of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in chromatography, because they can separate a wide range of enantiomers. Typically, such CSPs are prepared by physically coating, or chemically immobilizing the polysaccharide and β-cyclodextrin derivatives onto inert silica gel carriers as chromatographic support. Over the past few years, new chiral selectors have been introduced, and progressive methods to prepare CSPs have been exploited. Also, chiral recognition mechanisms, which play a crucial role in the investigation of chiral separations, have been better elucidated. Further insights into the broad functional performance of commercially available chiral column materials and/or the respective newly developed chiral phase materials on enantiomeric separation (ES) have been gained. This review summarizes the recent developments in CSs, CSP preparation, chiral recognition mechanisms, and enantiomeric separation methods, based on polysaccharides and β-cyclodextrins as CSs, with a focus on the years 2019-2020 of this rapidly developing field.

Enantioseparation of solriamfetol and its major impurity phenylalaninol by capillary electrophoresis using sulfated gamma cyclodextrin. Electrophoresis 2021; 42:1818-1825. [PMID: 34109644 DOI: 10.1002/elps.202100076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Revised: 06/01/2021] [Accepted: 06/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
R-solriamfetol is a recently approved drug used for the treatment of excessive sleepiness associated with narcolepsy and sleep apnea. Herein, a capillary electrophoretic method was developed, enabling the simultaneous analysis of the API and its S-enantiomer in addition to the enantiomers of its major impurity phenylalaninol. Twenty-nine different cyclodextrins (CDs), including native, neutral, and charged ones were screened as potential chiral selectors, and the best results were obtained with sulfated CDs. Randomly sulfated-β-CD exhibited outstanding enantioresolution, the peaks of phenylalaninol enantiomers inserted between the two peaks of solriamfetol enantiomers, while sulfated-γ-CD (S-γ-CD) showed remarkable resolution values in a much shorter analysis time with the optimal enantiomer migration order. Among the single isomer sulfated CD derivatives, substituent dependent enantiomer migration order reversal could also be observed in the case of heptakis(6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HS-β-CD) or heptakis(2,3-O-dimethyl-6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HDMS-β-CD) with R-,S-solriamfetol, and heptakis(2,3-O-diacetyl-6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HDAS-β-CD) resulting S-,R-solriamfetol migration order. The sulfated-γ-CD system was chosen for method optimization applying orthogonal experimental design. The optimized method (45 mM Tris-acetate buffer, pH 4.5, 4 mM S-γ-CD, 21°C, +19.5 kV) was capable for the baseline separation of solriamfetol and phenylalaninol enantiomers within 7 min. The optimized method was validated according to the ICH guidelines and successfully applied for the analysis of pharmaceutical preparation (Sunosi® 75 mg tablet), thus it may serve as a routine procedure for the laboratories of regulatory authorities as well as in Pharmacopoeias.

Abstract
This review provides a brief survey of chiral separation of pharmaceutically active substances published over the last 3 years (2018-2020). Chiral separation of drugs is an important area of research. The control of enantiomeric purity and determination of individual enantiomeric drug molecules is a necessity especially for clinical, analytical, and regulatory purposes. Among chromatographic resolution methods, high-performance liquid chromatography based on chiral stationary phases remains the most popular and effective method used for chiral separation of various drugs. In this review, attention is paid to several classes of chiral stationary phases that have been the most frequently used for drug enantioseparation during this period. GRAPHIC ABSTRACT

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases (CSPs) are outstandingly suitable to play a key role in chiral HPLC method selection strategies, since they provide high success rates. One reason for this ability is that they adopt a diversity of higher order structures in various eluents, resulting in versatile chiral environments. A potential to extend this versatility further was expected and examined in the present study, based on the recently discovered hysteretic behavior of a widely used chiral selector (CS), amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate). The hindered transitions of its structure, which are behind the history dependence of its separation ability, were used as a tool to identify distinct states of the chiral selector in order to exploit an extended selectivity space. The identification was carried out using a single diagnostic compound, as opposed to the common approach where testing a library of compounds is required. Eluent mixtures consisting of 2-propanol and either methanol or ethanol were scrutinized in terms of stability and robustness of the observed retentions. The solvent mixtures that were eligible for practical application in these respects were used to construct a screening sequence, including identical compositions combined with different column pretreatment. The gain achievable by using the proposed sequence was then evaluated using 15 enantiomer pairs with focus on resolution, enantiomer elution order and chemoselectivity.
