Chiral separation of new sulfonamide derivatives and evaluation of their enantioselective affinity for human carbonic anhydrase II by microscale thermophoresis and surface plasmon resonance.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a method combining chiral separation and biophysical techniques to evaluate the enantioselective affinity of original sulfonamide derivatives towards their therapeutic target, the human carbonic anhydrase II (hACII). The first step consisted in the preparation of the enantiomers by chromatographic separation. The performances of HPLC and Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) were studied at the analytical scale by optimization of various experimental conditions using adsorbed polysaccharide chiral stationary phases (amylose AD-H and cellulose OD-H). Since SFC allowed obtaining higher enantioresolutions per time unit, it was selected for the semi-preparative scale and successfully used to isolate each enantiomer with a satisfactory enantiomeric purity (>98%). Secondly, microscale thermophoresis (MST) method and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) used as reference method were developed to measure potential enantioselective affinities of these enantiomers towards the hACII. The optimizations of both methods were performed using a reference compound, i.e. acetazolamide, which affinity for hCAII has previously been demonstrated. For all compounds, KD values obtained using MST and SPR were in good agreement, leading to similar affinity scales despite both approaches totally differ (labeling for MST versus immobilization of the protein for SPR). The equilibrium dissociation constants of our original compounds for the hCAII were in the range 100-1000nM and an enantioselectivity was observed using the MST and SPR methods for the diarylpyrazole 2. Finally, by comparing the MST and SPR techniques, MST appears especially adapted for further screening of a series of sulfonamide derivatives due to the lower time required to estimate a binding constant while consuming as little hCAII as SPR.

Abstract
The SSR and SFC techniques were used for the enantiomeric resolution of three pharmaceutical intermediates at various sample scales. The separation conditions, the sample purities and yields, the productivities and the solvent consumptions were discussed in three case studies in this paper. In case (I), the SSR process was used for a low selectivity resolution of 2.0 kg of pharmaceutical intermediate. By using this separation process, a productivity of 750 g racemate/kg stationary phase/day was achieved, while solvent usage was minimized ( approximately 200 l/kg racemate). Case (II) pertained to the effectiveness of the SSR process. Productivity using SSR techniques increased by a factor of 4.5, while solvent usage decreased by a factor of 4.1 when compared to the productivity and solvent usage of batch HPLC. Case (III) compared SFC purification to HPLC purification. The SFC process was more effective in terms of an increase in productivity and a reduction in solvent usage. Based on these results, it appears that SSR and SFC are very useful choices at the early stage of the drug development for a high throughput and a rapid turn around of samples.

Abstract
The prediction of optimal conditions of the preparative HPLC separation of the enantiomers of a pharmaceutical intermediate was accomplished by employing analytical chromatographic data, i.e. sample injections at low concentrations. Various temperatures and mobile phase conditions were studied. It was assumed that the sample loadability of the stationary phase is constant for a constant value of the separation factor and different mobile phase conditions and temperatures. Using this assumption, possible production rates can be compared for different method conditions. Overloading experiments were carried out to verify that the procedure employed is adequate. It was found that the optimization approach used, changing the mobile phase composition and temperature to achieve the shortest cycle time while keeping the separation factor constant, could be applied to improve the production rate of the separation.

Abstract
Preparative HPLC and simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography were used to resolve significant quantities of a racemic pharmaceutical intermediate. In addition, smaller scale studies using closed-loop recycling and steady state recycling (SSR) were performed so that a meaningful comparison of all these techniques could be made using the same real world separation. A highly optimized, six-column SMB process was clearly the superior technique and was used for the process-scale (247 kg of racemate) resolution. At the more moderate lab-scale (33 kg of racemate and 19 kg of racemate), a frequently used but less optimized eight-column SMB process was used. It was found that SSR was comparable to the lab-scale SMB process in productivity and solvent consumption. Thus, it appears that SSR can be a useful choice at such moderate scales. Finally, at moderate scales when neither SSR nor SMB is available, it was found that acceptable results were obtained with both closed-loop recycling and with a two-step preparative process.

Abstract
The potential of the chromatographic separation of enantiomers on a preparative scale as a tool for the isolation of optically pure compounds is gaining increasing recognition. This review surveys the different chiral stationary phases (CSPs) used for preparative chromatography, emphasizing the advantages and drawbacks of each. The strategy to be followed for preparative separations is discussed and tables summarizing separations reported in the literature give an overview of practical applications. Cellulose triacetate has been used most frequently, probably because of its broad application range and its low production costs in comparison with more recently introduced CSPs. Nevertheless, the high efficiency of some of the novel CSPs is likely to contribute to the further development and expansion of the method.

Abstract
Analytical methods were developed for the separation of the enantiomers of four cyclopentenone precursors of prostaglandins. The resolution obtained is correlated with the chemical environment around the chiral center of the cyclopentenones. The analytical methods were scaled up to preparative loadings and the chromatographic parameters were varied to determine their effect on the preparative separations. The correlation between analytical resolution and preparative resolution was also investigated. In addition to the precursors, the preparative resolution of the enantiomers of a synthetic prostaglandin analogue was investigated.
