High‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a powerful method in the area of chiral separation. In this study, a method of HPLC using carboxymethyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (CM‐β‐CD) as chiral selector was developed for enantioseparation of nine indanone and tetralone derivatives. The separation was performed on a conventional C18 column. The optimal mobile phase was a mixture of methanol and 0.05 mol/L...
The cover image, by SIMONE K. SCHMIDT et al., is based on the Article Determination of Enantiomeric Excess of Nipecotic Acid as 1‐(7‐Nitrobenzo[c][1,2,5]oxadiazol‐4‐yl) Derivatives, DOI: 10.1002/chir.22670. Supported by Chiral Technologies Europe.
Amyloid beta‐protein 42 plays an important role in the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease. Familial mutations have identified the glutamate residue 22 as a hotspot with regard to peptide neurotoxicity. We introduce an approach to study the influence of systematic sidechain modification at this residue, employing chirality as a structural probe. Circular dichroism experiments reveal that...
For the enantiopure synthesis of novel chiral GABA uptake inhibitors, nipecotic acid (1) is an important key precursor. To characterize accurately the pharmacological activity of these interesting target compounds, the determination of the correct enantiomeric purity of nipecotic acid as the starting material is indispensable. In this report, a sensitive high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)...
Dehydrative cyclization of 4‐(D‐altro‐pentitol‐1‐yl)2‐phenyl‐2H‐1,2,3‐triazole in basic medium with one moler equivalent of p‐toluene sulfonyl chloride in pyridine solution gave the homo‐C‐nucleoside 4‐(2,5‐anhydro‐D‐altro‐1‐yl)‐2‐phenyl‐2H‐1,2,3‐triazole. The structure and anomeric configuration was determined by acylation, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and mass spectroscopy. The stereochemistry...
The enantiomer ratios of chiral volatile organic compounds in fruit distillates were determined by multidimensional gas chromatography using solid‐phase microextraction (SPME) as a sample treatment procedure. Linalool and its oxides, limonene, α‐terpineol, and nerolidol, were present at the highest concentration levels, while significantly lower amounts of β‐citronellol and lactones were found in...
The elevated activity of fatty acid synthase has been reported in a number of cancer types. Inhibition of this enzyme has been demonstrated to induce cancer cell death and reduce tumor growth. In addition, the fatty acid synthase inhibitor drug C75 has been reported to synergistically enhance the cancer‐killing ability of ionizing radiation. However, clinical use of C75 has been limited due to its...
The purpose of this study was to compare intestinal permeability between enantiomers of 2‐(2‐hydroxypropanamido) benzoic acid ((R)‐/(S)‐HPABA), a marine‐derived antiinflammatory drug, using an in situ single‐pass intestinal perfusion (SPIP) model in rats. Concentrations, isolated regions of small intestine, and p‐glycoprotein (P‐gp) inhibitor were performed to investigate their influences on the intestinal...
The enantiomeric separation of the enantiomers of three phenylpyrazole pesticides (fipronil, flufiprole, ethiprole) and two fipronil metabolites (amide‐fipronil and acid‐fipronil) were investigated by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a CHIRALPAK® IB chiral column. The mobile phase was n‐hexane or petroleum ether with 2‐propanol or ethanol as modifier at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min...
In this study the stereoselective bioaccumulation and transformation of triadimefon and the toxicity of triadimefon and its metabolite triadimenol to the green algae Scenedesmus obliquus were studied. In growth inhibition experiments, triadimenol was more toxic than triadimefon, and (1S,2R)‐triadimenol, which has the largest fungicidal activity, presented the highest toxicity to the algae. In bioaccumulation...
The diastereomer diketopiperazine (DKP) peptides built on phenylalanine, namely, cyclo diphenylalanine LPhe‐LPhe and LPhe‐DPhe, were studied in the solid phase by vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) coupled to quantum chemical calculations. The unit structure of cyclo LPhe‐LPhe in KBr pellets is a dimer bridged by two strong NH…O hydrogen bonds. The intense bisignate signature in the CO stretch region...
Chiral objects in shear flow experience a chirality‐specific lift force. Shear flows past helices in a low Reynolds number regime were studied using slender‐body theory. The chirality‐specific lift forces in the vorticity direction experienced by helices are dominated by a set of helix geometry parameters: helix radius, pitch length, number of turns, and helix phase angle. Its analytical formula is...
The chirality issues in the essential oils (EOs) of leaves and flowers from Bubonium graveolens were addressed by chiral high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with polarimetric detection and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD). The chemical compositions of the crude oils of three samples were established by gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The well‐known cis‐chrysanthenyl acetate...
A simple and efficient high‐performance thin‐layer chromatographic method was developed for chiral separation of rac‐bupropion (BUP) and its active metabolite rac‐hydroxybupropion (HBUP). Design of experiment (DoE)‐based optimization was adopted instead of a conventional trial‐and‐error approach. The Box–Behnken design surface response model was used and the operating variables were optimized based...
Conjugated homopolymer poly(9,9‐bis(3‐((S)‐2‐methylbutylpropanoate))fluorene) (PSF) with chiral pendants was synthesized and characterized. Dissolution experiments show that PSF is well dissolved in racemic limonene at high temperature and begins aggregating upon sequential cooling treatment. The corresponding assemblies were transferred to quartz plate by the spin‐coating method. Comparably, film...
Separations of six dihydropyridine enantiomers on three commercially available cellulose‐based chiral stationary phases (Chiralcel OD‐RH, Chiralpak IB, and Chiralpak IC) were evaluated with high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The best enantioseparation of the six chiral drugs was obtained with a Chiralpak IC (250 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 μm) column. Then the influence of the mobile phase including...
Trichlorfon (TF), an organophosphorus insecticide, has been widely used in seawater aquaculture; it is easily degraded to the highly toxic insecticide, dichlorvos (DDVP). In this study, the enantioseparation of TF enantiomers, as well as their degradation behavior and product (DDVP) formation in mariculture pond sediments, was investigated. The results show that both TF enantiomers degrade into DDVP,...
