RESUMEN
(RS)-Etodolac was isolated from commercial tablets and was purified and characterized to be used as racemic standard. A pair of diastereomeric derivatives was synthesized using (S)-levofloxacin as a chiral derivatizing reagent. The derivatization reaction was carried out under conditions of stirring at room temperature (30°C for 1.5 h) as well as under microwave irradiation; the derivatives obtained by the two methods were compared. Reaction conditions for derivatization were optimized with respect to mole ratio of chiral derivatizing reagent and (RS)-etodolac. No racemization was observed throughout the study. Separation of diastereomeric derivatives was successful using C18 column and a binary mixture of methanol and triethyl ammonium phosphate buffer of pH 4.5 (80:20, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL min-1 and UV detection at 223 nm. An efficient approach for recognizing chirality and determining the absolute configuration of the diastereomeric derivatives of (RS)-etodolac is described, which in turn is a measure of the enantiomeric purity of (RS)-etodolac since the diastereomeric derivatives were separated and isolated using preparative thin-layer chromatography.

Separation of racemic mixture of (RS)-bupropion, (RS)-baclofen and (RS)-etodolac, commonly marketed racemic drugs, has been achieved by modifying the conventional ligand exchange approach. The Cu(II) complexes were first prepared with a few l-amino acids, namely, l-proline, l-histidine, l-phenylalanine and l-tryptophan, and to these was introduced a mixture of the enantiomer pair of (RS)-bupropion, or (RS)-baclofen or (RS)-etodolac. As a result, formation of a pair of diastereomeric complexes occurred by 'chiral ligand exchange' via the competition between the chelating l-amino acid and each of the two enantiomers from a given pair. The diastereomeric mixture formed in the pre-column process was loaded onto HPLC column. Thus, both the phases during chromatographic separation process were achiral (i.e. neither the stationary phase had any chiral structural feature of its own nor did the mobile phase have any chiral additive). Separation of diastereomers was successful using a C18 column and a binary mixture of MeCN and TEAP buffer of pH 4.0 (60:40, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection at 230 nm for (RS)-Bup, 220 nm for (RS)-Bac and 223 nm for (RS)-Etd. Baseline separation of the two enantiomers was obtained with a resolution of 6.63 in <15 min. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Pure enantiomers are of large interest for several industries. This study was aimed to establish a method for separation of etodolac enantiomers by preferential crystallization after a conglomerate formation of its derivatives. S-(+)-etodolac and R-(-)-etodolac enantiomers were both prepared by classical resolution via crystallization of diastereoisomeric salt with (-)-brucine and (-)-cinchonidine. Enantiomeric purity of etodolac was determined by HPLC method using Chiralcel OD-H column. The pure diastereomeric salt collected from repeated recrystallization was further fractionated by liquid-liquid extraction to pure enantiomers. Etodolac enantiomers were recovered with overall yield more than 20% and the purities were over 99.9%.

The resolution of etodolac by reversed phase HPLC applied in the European Pharmacopeia (EP) was found to be greatly affected by using methanol as the injection solvent and the system of gradient elution, which leads to peak broadening as well as poor separation of etodolac from the impurities such as 2-(7-ethylindol-3-yl) ethanol respectively. Changing the type of injection solvent (methanol) by the mobile phase, which is a mixture of methanol, buffer (KH2PO4, PH = 7), and acetonitril as well as monitoring the gradient program (increasing the polarity) leads to enhance the selectivity and efficiency of the analysis of etodolac by eliminating the peak broadening and markedly improving the separation of etodolac from 2-(7-ethylindol-3-yl) ethanol. The method was validated by parameters such as selectivity, repeatability, and intermediate precision.

Separation of etodolac enantiomers, which exhibit different biological activity and pharmacokinetic profiles, has been achieved using the randomly substituted (2-hydroxy)propyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD) as chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis. The selection of this CD was made after screening of different CD derivatives of neutral and anionic nature. The effect on the enantioresolution of the buffer concentration and of the degree of substitution (DS) and concentration of the CD as well as of instrumental parameters, such as the capillary temperature and the separation voltage, were studied. The highest resolution of etodolac enantiomers was around 2.5 using 100 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) with 20 mM HP-beta-CD (DS approximately 4.2) and UV detection at 225 (10) nm with a reference wavelength at 360 (50) nm. Validation of the chiral method in terms of selectivity, linearity, precision (instrumental repeatability, method repeatability, intermediate precision), and the limits of detection and quantitation allowed to evaluate its quality to the analysis of etodolac enantiomers in different pharmaceutical preparations containing racemic etodolac.

The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug etodolac is extensively metabolized in the liver. Renal elimination of etodolac mainly as glucuronide and its other phase I and phase II metabolites is the primary route of excretion. High-performance liquid chromatography assays of human urine after application of etodolac indicated the existence of a further monohydroxylated metabolite (metabolite X) that was identified as 5-hydroxy etodolac. For the identification, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) as well as 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) and 13C-NMR spectroscopy have been used.

Capillary high-performance liquid chromatography (capillary HPLC), pressure-assisted capillary electrochromatography (pCEC) and capillary electrochromatography (CEC) were performed in the same capillary packed with 5 microm octadecylsilica (C18) as stationary phase. These three separation modes were compared from the viewpoint of peak efficiency and separation selectivity in order to critically evaluate the advantages which CEC may offer compared to capillary HPLC for the solution of practical biomedical problems. The separation of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug etodolac (ET, 1) and its phase I metabolites, 6-hydroxy etodolac (6-OH-ET, 2), 7-hydroxy etodolac (7-OH-ET, 3) and 8-(1'-hydroxyethyl) etodolac (8-OH-ET, 4) was selected as an example. Baseline separation of all compounds was achieved in different modes and conditions. The effect of pure electrophoretic separation mechanism on the overall separation selectivity observed in CEC has been shown. A high electroosmotic flow (EOF) was observed in C18 packed capillary even at pH 2.5 in various buffers. Furthermore, these separations were coupled on-line with electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and the parent drug and its metabolites were identified in urine. For the coupling of CEC with ESI-MS a laboratory-made electrophoretic device was used in order to overcome some technical disadvantages of commercial instrumentation.

The enantiomers of the antiinflammatory drug Etodolac were separated without derivatization on Chiralcel OD and Pirkle (R)-DNBPG columns. Enantiomeric purity can be determined in less than 10 min. Optimization of separation was evaluated using various concentrations of 2-propanol (doped with TFA) in hexane as the mobile phase.
