Synthesis of dendrimer-type chiral stationary phases based on the selector of (1S,2R)-(+)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol derivate and their enantioseparation evaluation by HPLC.

In our recent work, a series of dendritic chiral stationary phases (CSPs) were synthesized, in which the chiral selector was L-2-(p-toluenesulfonamido)-3-phenylpropionyl chloride (selector I), and the CSP derived from three-generation dendrimer showed the best separation ability. To further investigate the influence of the structures of dendrimer and chiral selector on enantioseparation ability, in this work, another series CSPs (CSPs 1-4) were prepared by immobilizing (1S,2R)-1,2-diphenyl-2-(3-phenylureido)ethyl 4-isocyanatophenylcarbamate (selector II) on one- to four-generation dendrimers that were prepared in previous work. CSPs 1 and 4 demonstrated the equivalent enantioseparation ability. CSPs 2 and 3 showed the best and poorest enantioseparation ability respectively. Basically, these two series of CSPs exhibited the equivalent enantioseparation ability although the chiral selectors were different. Considering the enantioseparation ability of the CSP derived from aminated silica gel and selector II is much better than that of the one derived from aminated silica gel and selector I, it is believed that the dendrimer conformation essentially impacts enantioseparation.

Immobilization of (1S,2R)-(+)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol derivates on aminated silica gel with different linkages as chiral stationary phases and their enantioseparation evaluation by HPLC.

A chiral selector was prepared through the reaction between (1S,2R)-(+)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol and phenyl isocyanate. This selector was immobilized on aminated silica gel, respectively, with bifunctional group linkers of 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate, methylene-di-p-phenyl diisocyanate, and terephthaloyl chloride to produce corresponding three chiral stationary phases. The prepared compounds and chiral stationary phases were characterized by FT-IR, elemental analysis, (1)H NMR, and solid-state (1)H NMR. The enantioseparation ability of these chiral stationary phases was evaluated with structurally various chiral compounds. The chiral stationary phase prepared with 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate as linker showed excellent enantioseparation ability. The influence of different linkages on the enantioseparation was discussed.

Synthesis of dendritic stationary phases with surface-bonded L-phenylalanine derivate as chiral selector and their evaluation in HPLC resolution of racemic compounds.

Four dendrimers were synthesized on aminopropyl-modified silica gel using methyl acrylate and ethylene diamine as building blocks by divergent method. Four generations of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) were prepared by coupling of L-2-(p-toluenesulfonamido)-3-phenylpropionyl chloride to corresponding dendrimers. The derivatives prepared on silica gel were characterized by FT-IR, (1)H NMR, and elemental analysis. The selector loadings of these four generations of CSPs generally showed a decrease tendency with the increase of generation numbers of dendrimers. The enantioseparation properties of these CSPs were preliminarily investigated by high-performance liquid chromatography. The CSP derived from the three-generation dendrimer exhibited the best enantioseparation capability. Effects of the mobile phase composition and molecular structures of racemic mixtures on enantioseparation were further studied.
