Abstract
Controlling the enantiomeric purity of chiral drugs is of paramount importance in pharmaceutical chemistry. Isotropic 1H NMR spectroscopy involving chiral agents is a widely used method for discriminating enantiomers and quantifying their relative proportions. However, the relatively weak spectral separation of enantiomers (1H Δδiso(R, S)) in frequency units at low and moderate magnetic fields, as well as the lack of versatility of a majority of those agents with respect to different chemical functions, may limit the general use of this approach. In this article, we investigate the analytical potential of 19F NMR in anisotropic chiral media for the enantiomeric analysis of fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) via two residual anisotropic NMR interactions: the chemical shift anisotropy (19F-RCSA) and dipolar coupling ((19F-19F)-RDC). Lyotropic chiral liquid crystals (CLC) based on poly-γ-benzyl-L-glutamate (PBLG) show an interesting versatility and adaptability to enantiodiscrimination as illustrated for two chiral drugs, Flurbiprofen® (FLU) and Efavirenz® (EFA), which have very different chemical functions. The approach has been tested on a routine 300 MHz NMR spectrometer equipped with a standard probe (5 mm BBFO probe) in a high-throughput context (i.e., ≈10 s of NMR experiments) while the performance for enantiomeric excess (ee) measurement is evaluated in terms of trueness and precision. The limits of detection (LOD) determined were 0.17 and 0.16 μmol ml-1 for FLU and EFA, respectively, allow working in dilute conditions even with such a short experimental duration. The enantiodiscrimination capabilities are also discussed with respect to experimental features such as CLC composition and temperature.

Abstract
Background:
Mexiletine belongs to the β-amino-aryl-ether group of pharmaceutical and applied in the diagnosis of antiarrhythmics, allodynia, and myotonic disorders. In its chemical structure, it possesses a chiral center and practiced in the form of the racemic mixture. The production and accessibility of mexiletine have accompanied with a meaningful development in awareness of its pharmacologic actions. But in clinical arrhythmias and binding experiments on cardiac sodium channels, the (R)-enantiomer of mexiletine is more potent than the (S)-enantiomer. Also, (S)-enantiomer is further active in the diagnosis of allodynia than the (R)-enantiomer.
Methods:
During the last two decades, chromatographic techniques such as HPLC, and GC coupled with mass spectrometry or field ionization detector was used for the stereoselective analysis of MEX enantiomers.
Results:
The direct enantioresolution deal with the use of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) with or no pre-derivatization which depend on a chromophoric entity in the racemates whereas indirect HPLC process involved the use of chiral derivatization reagents (CDR) for the synthesis of diastereomeric derivatives of racemates. Different techniques have their strengths and weaknesses.
Conclusion:
Regulation of enantiomeric purity and estimation of particular enantiomers of drug molecules stays an essential topic for therapeutic, diagnostic, and regulatory uses and to promote a precise assessment of the hazards to human health by false enantiomers. This review aims to offer a systematic survey of the analytical methods (chromatography based) used in the enantioselective analysis of MEX developed in the last two decades (the year 2000 onwards).

Abstract
Chiral organic pollutants including pharmaceuticals, pesticides, herbicides, flame retardants, and polycyclic musk cause significant risks to both the environment and human health. Chiral pharmaceuticals (CPs) are among the significant class of pseudo-persistent substances that have been observed in the concentration level from nanomolar to micromolar quantities and cause bad impacts on nontargeted species and direct or indirect human health issues due to water and foodborne contamination. The CPs may contain one or more chiral centers in their structural framework and thus enantiomers of CPs often possess different distribution, fate, bioaccumulation potential, and toxicity. The enantioselective chromatographic techniques have been extensively applied to detect drug enantiomers during the last few years. Bioremediation techniques offer unique characteristics above conventional remediation procedures as these could be cost-effective and accomplish total organic pollutant decomposition without causing collateral damage to the site material or native flora and fauna. This review describes the impacts of chiral pharmaceuticals on the environment; detection technologies (particularly liquid chromatography), and important remedial measures for safer disposal of such pollutants.

Abstract
The de-novo approach of mixing chirally pure reagents or Cu(II)-L-amino acid complexes in the slurry of silica gel for preparing TLC plates was reported from author's laboratory and was successful for separation and isolation of enantiomers. Using high molar absorptivity molecules, e. g., 1,5-difluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and cyanuric chloride, more than 38 new chiral derivatizing reagents were synthesized in our laboratory by straightforward nucleophilic substitution with simple chiral auxiliaries. Besides, (S)-naproxen, (S)-ketoprofen, and (S)-levofloxacin were used as chiral platforms. A conceptual approach using both achiral phases in chromatography for enantioseparation was also adopted. 1 H NMR and DFT based software were used to explain structures of non-covalent and covalent diastereomeric pairs and determination of configuration and separation mechanism. The methods can be easily used to determine and control enantiomeric purity with advantages over a variety of commercial chiral phases.

Abstract
Betaxolol is a relatively cardioselective β-adrenoceptor blocking drug, with no partial agonist (intrinsic sympathomimetic) activity and weak membrane-stabilizing (local anesthetic) activity. Betaxolol selectively and competitively binds to and blocks beta-1 (β1) adrenergic receptors in the heart, thereby decreasing cardiac contractility and rate. This leads to a reduction in cardiac output and lowers blood pressure. When applied topically in the eye, this agent reduces aqueous humor secretion and lowers the intraocular pressure (IOP). In addition, betaxolol prevents the release of renin, a hormone secreted by the kidneys that causes constriction of blood vessels. Betaxolol (S)-(-)-enantiomer shows higher pharmacological activity. This chapter provides a complete review of nomenclature, physiochemical properties, methods of preparation, identification techniques and various qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques as well as pharmacology of betaxolol. In addition, the chapter also includes review of several methods for enantiomeric separation betaxolol using chromatographic techniques.

Abstract
Fourteen amino acids protected at the N-terminal and at their side chains were screened for resolving the enantiomers of V-agents by NMR. While none of the shift reagents tested showed really effective separation in proton NMR, two of them (BOC-Gln(Xan)-OH, 16, and Z-Arg(Z)2-OH), 21, with 16 superior to 21) were found suitable to separate the enantiomers of all V-agent homologues involved in the test by 31P-NMR. Molar ratios investigated were 1:0.5, 1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2, and 1:3 with the V-agent set to 1 throughout the experiments. All these ratios were more or less effective, but 1:3 was found to separate the V-agents the most reliable way. It is postulated that three chiral solvating molecules are then coordinated around the organophosphate: ion pair formation with the amino nitrogen of the V agent side chain, hydrogen bonding provided by the PO unit, and extension of coordination at the phosphorus atom itself. After chiral separation of VX by semi-preparative LC-MS the enantiomers were examined with both configurations of 16 releasing four different 31P NMR peaks which correspond to four different complexes: R-S3, R-R3, S-R3, and S-S3. Comparing these results with literature data it is assumed that (+)-VX corresponds to the RP configuration and (-)-VX to the SP-configuration.

Abstract
Enantioseparation of four commonly used β-adrenolytics (bisoprolol, salbutamol, and carvedilol, marketed as racemic mixtures) has been achieved by both TLC and RPHPLC via an indirect approach. A new chiral reagent, (S)-naproxen benzotriazole ester, was synthesized and it was characterized by UV, IR, 1HNMR, elemental analysis and polarimetry. It was used to synthesize diastereomeric derivatives of the three β-adrenolytics under microwave irradiation. TLC separation of diastereomeric derivatives was achieved which were then isolated by preparative approach; these were characterized and were used as standard reference for determining absolute configuration of diastereomeric derivatives and for establishing validated HPLC method for enantioseparation and sensitive detection of the three β-adrenolytics in human plasma. Mobile phase in gradient mode containing methanol and aqueous triethylaminephosphate (TEAP) was successful for HPLC separation; conditions with respect to pH, flow rate, and buffer concentration were optimized. The method is capable to accurately quantitate β-adrenolytics in human plasma with minimal sample clean-up and rapid separation by TLC and RPHPLC. The limit of detection values were 0.97 and 0.87ng/mL for diastereomeric derivatives of (S)- and (R)-bisoprolol, respectively, which are very low in comparison to literature reports.
