RESUMO
The enantioseparation of carboxylic acids, including amino acid dansyl-derivatives, 2-arylpropionic acids and 2-aryloxypropionic acids, was tested by CEC on a porous silica sol-gel monolithic column that was prepared by polycondensation of tetramethoxysilane in acidic conditions and post-gelation heat treatment (120 degrees C for 3 h) in the presence of urea, and successively, by anchoring to the silica (+)-1-allyl-(5R,8S,10R)-terguride as the chiral selector. The bimodal structure of the sorbent showed through pores with a median value of 1.39 mum and a mesopore size distribution ranging between 6 and 12 nm (average pore size of 9.9 nm). To attain optimum separation conditions, the influence of the pH and the concentration of the buffer solution in the mobile phase on resolution were investigated. The monolithic column showed: (i) for the compounds studied resolution values two or three times higher in comparison with previously developed separation systems where the same chiral selector was used. For example, on the monolithic column Dns-serine enantiomers were much better separated (8 min with a selectivity factor of 1.34) than by HPLC (20 min, alpha=1.17); (ii) high chemical and mechanical stability as demonstrated by the use of such column for hundreds of analysis along about 1 year without significant variations of the resolution and the retention parameters.

For the study of the stereoselective degradation of the herbicide 2-aryloxipropionic acid dichlorprop (DCPP) in soil, a porous monolithic chiral column (100 microm id) was prepared by in situ copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate in the presence of formamide and 1-propanol as the porogen solvents. Subsequently, the epoxide groups at the surface of the monolith were reacted with (+)-1-(4-aminobutyl)-(5R,8S,10R)-terguride as the chiral selector. Optimum conditions for the herbicide resolution by CEC were found using mobile phases consisting of acetic acid/triethylamine mixtures in ACN-methanol (9:1 v/v). Under these conditions fully separation of DCPP enantiomers in the presence of clofibric acid (internal standard) was achieved in about 5 min. Experiments on the incubation of rac-DCPP in soil at room temperature showed the herbicide undergone during 23 incubation days to a degradation to levels =20% of the initial concentration, with rates for (R)-DCPP slower than (S)-DCPP. More interesting results were observed when herbicide enantiomers were individually incubated. In both the experiments, the formation of the opposite isomer in the presence of the initial one, and reversed enantiomeric interconversion in the case of (S)-DCPP was observed. (R)-DCPP was found to be the most persistent isomer after incubation.

The chiral selector vancomycin was used either as mobile phase additive or bound as a chiral stationary phase (CSP) for the stereoselective separation of seven racemic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), fenoprofen, carprofen, flurbiprofen, indoprofen, flobufen, ketoprofen, and suprofen, by capillary liquid chromatography. The effect of the type of stationary phase, the chiral column Chirobiotic V or the achiral stationary phases Nucleosil 100 C8 HD and Nucleosil 100 C18 HD, and the concentration of vancomycin in the mobile phase on separation of the drug enantiomers were evaluated. All the drugs, except flobufen, were successfully enantioseparated on Nucleosil 100 C8 HD with 4 mM vancomycin present in the mobile phase (composed of methanol and buffer) in the reversed phase mode. On the vancomycin-bonded chiral stationary phase, it was difficult to get enantioseparations of the profen NSAIDs. However, flobufen gave better enantioseparation on the vancomycin CSP. The better enantioresolution of the majority of profen derivatives on the achiral columns with vancomycin added to the mobile phase can be attributed in particular to the higher separation efficiency of this capillary chromatographic system. In addition, vancomycin dimers, formed in the mobile phase, seem to offer a better steric arrangement for stereoselective interaction to these analytes than the vancomycin bonded on the CSP. These substantial differences in the CS structure significantly influence the chiral discrimination mechanism.

The enantioseparation of 2-aryloxypropionic acids by capillary electrochromatography was tested on columns with a monolithic stationary phase prepared from silanized fused-silica capillaries (100 microm I.D.) by in situ copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and methyl methacrylate in the presence of formamide and 1-propanol as the porogen solvents. The porous chiral monolithic stationary phases were prepared by reaction of the epoxy-groups at the surface of the monolith with (+)-1-(4-aminobutyl)-(5R,8S,10R)-terguride. To attain the minimum HETP values for the enantiodiscrimination of 2-phenoxypropionic acid, the influence of the composition of polymerization solution on column total porosity and efficiency was investigated. Optimum mobile phase conditions were found for all analytes tested using acetonitrile-methanol mixtures containing triethylamine and acetic acid as the buffer components. Furthermore, the chemical and mechanical stabilities of the columns were satisfactory, allowing hundreds of analyses.

The separation of the major flavanone-7-O-glycoside constituents of Citrus was carried out by isocratic reversed phase capillary electrochromatography using a 75 microm i.d. silica fused column packed with 5 microm ODS silica gel. In comparison to HPLC mode, capillary electrochromatography resolution of flavanone glycosides was obtained with a high selectivity factor. Optimum separation conditions were found using a mixture of ammonium formate (pH 2.5)--acetonitrile (8:2, v/v) as the mobile phase by the short-end injection mode. Under these conditions all the investigated flavanones were baseline-resolved within short analysis time (i.e. between 5 and 10 min). A study, evaluating the intra- and inter-day repeatability as well as limit of detection and method linearity, was developed in accordance with the analytical procedures for method validation. The developed method was applied for the quantitative analysis of flavanone glycosides in commercial fruit juices (sweet orange, lemon and grapefruit).

The major flavanone-7-O-glycoside constituents in citrus fruit juices (naringin, hesperidin, neohesperidin, narirutin, and eriocitrin) were separated as diastereomers by multidimensional liquid chromatography. The method consisted of coupling two HPLC columns: a reversed-phase (RP(18)) column was used for the separation of flavanone glycosides, which were, then, individually switched into a carboxymethylated beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)-based column and resolved as the corresponding stereoisomers. The method was used for the full analysis of flavanone glycosides in fresh hand-squeezed and commercial fruit juices by combining the quantitative estimation with the diastereomeric analysis. Quantitative data were in general consistent with previously reported data in this field. CC-LC isomer analysis was carried out by coupling the beta-CD column with a mass spectrometer operated with negative ion electrospray ionization (ESI-MS). The results showed that hesperidin was present in orange juices almost exclusively as the 2S isomer, whereas narirutin had mainly the 2R configuration. In grapefruit juices (2S)-naringin prevailed with the respect to the 2R isomer, whereas the opposite was true for narirutin. Lemon juices contained eriocitrin stereoisomers in equal amount (50% each), but hesperidin was almost exclusively found as the 2S isomer. Significant differences of the diastereomeric ratios were observed between freshly squeezed juices and juices from commercial sources.

The indirect resolution of five beta-adrenoreceptor blocking agents (propranolol, oxprenolol, pindolol, metoprolol, and atenolol) using precolumn derivatization with (+)-1-(9-fluorenyl)ethyl chloroformate (FLEC), and capillary electrochromatography (CEC) is reported. Three octadecylsilanized (ODS) silica gel-based stationary phases, differing in particle diameter and carbon surface density for suitability of determination of the enantiomeric composition of these substances in drugs and biological fluids, were studied. Under optimum separation conditions, all the investigated compounds were baseline-resolved within acceptable analysis times (i.e., between 10-16 min). The resolution values ranged between 1.80 and 1.14, and the separation factors were in no case less than 1.07. The possible use of the developed CEC method for the determination of enantiomeric composition of beta-adrenoreceptor blocking agents in drug substances was investigated. A study, in which the enantiomers of metoprolol were examined regarding specificity, reproducibility, limit of detection, and ruggedness, was developed in accordance with some analytical procedures for method validation.

Enantiomer separation of synthetic pyrethroids was carried out on different chiral HPLC columns. In particular, the study provided useful information on the direct resolution of pyrethroids with and without alpha-ciano groups. The study indicated that polymeric chiral stationary phases based on cellulose derivatives are the most appropriate for the stereoisomer separation of cis-Biphenthrin, Resmethrin and (1R)-Phenothrin, whereas multiple-interaction CSPs, like (S)-1-(alpha-naphthyl)-ethylamine/(S)-tert-leucine, are more selective for Cyfluthrin.
