    Notes: Abstract Genetic linkage studies of families with earlyonset type 2 diabetes have facilitated the identification of diabetes-susceptibility genes. In order to assess the feasibility of using linkage approaches to identify genes responsible for the development of type 2 diabetes in Japanese subjects, we examined our clinical records for multigenerational families suitable for genetic studies. We identified 16 families in which at least one subject was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes before 25 years of age. Seven of these families had a pattern of inheritance consistent with a diagnosis of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and nine families showed a complex pattern of inheritance of type 2 diabetes with transmission of diabetes-susceptibility genes from both parents. The glucokinase and mitochondrial tRNALeu(UUR) genes were screened for mutations in at least one affected subject from each family in order to assess the contribution of mutations in these genes to the development of the diabetes. No mutations were found, which suggests that the diabetes in these families resulted from mutations in other genes.

    Notes: Abstract The objective of this study was to use restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) to determine the genetic location and effects of genomic regions controlling plant height in sorghum. F2 plants (152) from the cross CK60 x PI229828 were used. Genomic and cDNA clones (106) identified 111 loci distributed among ten linkage groups covering 1299 cM. Interval mapping identified four regions, each in a separate linkage group. These regions may correspond to loci (dw) previously identified by alleles with qualitative effects. Also, these regions identified in sorghum may be orthologous to those previously reported for plant height in maize. Gene effects and gene action varied among genomic regions. In each region, PI229828 alleles resulted in increased plant height. Each region accounted for 9.2–28.7% of the phenotypic variation. Positive, additive effects ranged from 15 to 32cm. Tallness was dominant or overdominant and conferred by alleles from PI229828 for three quantitative trait loci (QTL). At the fourth QTL, PI229828 contributed to increased plant height, but short stature was partially dominant. One digenic interaction was significant. The presence of a PI229828 allele at one region diminished the effects of the other region. A multiple model indicated that these four regions collectively accounted for 63.4% of the total phenotypic variation. The utility of this information for germplasm conversion through backcross breeding is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract We describe a case of a desmoplastic brain tumor which was initially resected from the right fronto-temporal region in a 2 year-old boy. This nodular, calcified tumor was vascularized by the internal carotid artery and the middle meningeal artery branches. Grossly, it contained several mucoid cysts. Light microscopy showed cords or nests of small cuboidal cells surrounded by a loose connective tissue and desmoplasic areas containing fibers and spindle cells. The cuboidal cells expressed epithelial, neuronal and neuroendocrine markers. Some foci of spindle cells showed glial differentiation. The tumor recurred 16 months later and displayed some characteristics of the small cell neuroepithelial component, mitoses being conspicuous. Electron microscopy revealed undifferentiated clear cells, some containing neurosecretory granules. Karyotyping demonstrated the following formula: 〈 15 〉 46, t(8;11) (a13; q11). The chromosome 11 breakpoint was different from that described in Ewing's sarcoma. This isolated translocation has not been previously reported to our knowledge. These unusual features lead us to report this case and to discuss its pathogenesis.

    Notes: Abstract We report two female siblings with the fetal brain disruption sequence. Extensive investigation of both children failed to define a definitive aetiology but clinical and laboratory findings are consistent with a hitherto unknown storage disease. We postulate that the accumulation of a neurotoxic metabolite may be responsible for the disease phenotype observed. This is the first report of recurrence of the fetal brain disruption sequence and supports the existence of a genetic form of this condition. Previous reports have emphasized possible environmental aetiologies. Infants with fetal brain disruption sequence should be investigated exhaustively and, in the absence of definitive evidence of an environmental cause, the possibility of a genetic aetiology should be considered. In some families the recurrence risk may be as high as one in four.

    Notes: Abstract The Floating-Harbor syndrome is a growth retardation syndrome with delayed bone age, speech development, and typical facial features. The face is triangular with deep-set eyes, long eyelashes, bulbous nose, wide columella, short philtrum, and thin lips. We present an additional patient and review 16 cases from the literature. The possible phenotype in the patient's mother suggests a dominant mode of inheritance for the syndrome. Conclusion The Floating Harbor syndrome is a growth deficiency syndrome characterized by proportionate short stature, characteristic face and delayed speech development. Inheritance is possibly autosomal dominant.

    Notes: Abstract Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a dominantly inherited connective tissue disorder, is usually caused by defects in collagen I. There is growing evidence for parental mosaicism that results in affected children born to unaffected parents. This situation poses a difficult task for the geneticist because a mosaic parent may appear clinically healthy while carrying the mutation in a fraction of her or his gonadal cells. To illustrate this problem, we report a Swiss couple whose first child was affected with severe OI. The unexpected recurrence of the disorder in the second child raised the suspicion of a recessive trait or, rather, of parental mosaicism. We identified the responsible collagen mutation in the COL1A2 gene (Gly688Ser in the α2(I)-chain) in both children and demonstrated the father to be a somatic mosaic for this mutation and to have subtle clinical signs such as soft skin and short stature that may be a result of his mosaic state.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Exposure of the skin to ultraviolet irradiation is an important risk factor for the development of malignant melanoma, with UVA possibly playing an important role. Hereditary factors are also relevant. In the dysplastic nevus syndrome a genetic instability has been shown by different methods. In xeroderma pigmentosum the DNA repair defect is thought to be responsible for the high incidence of malignant melanoma. Frequent and non-random changes in certain chromosomes have been demonstrated in melanoma cells. These might contain sequences that control melanoma growth or melanoma suppressor genes. Especially the short arm of chromosome 9 is thought to contain one of these genes. This hypothesis is supported by a genetic linkage analysis in melanoma families and the demonstration of a germ line deletion of the locus 9p21 in a patient with eight primary melanomas. Changes in known tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes have also been reported in melanoma, but no consistent sequence of genetic events is known.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Exposition der Haut mit ultravioletten Strahlen ist ein wichtiger Risikofaktor für die Entwicklung eines malignen Melanoms. Möglicherweise spielt hierbei UVA-A eine besondere Rolle. Daneben sind hereditäre Faktoren von Bedeutung. Während beim Syndrom der dysplastischen Nävi eine genetische Instabilität mit verschiedenen Methoden nachgewiesen wurde, wird bei Xeroderma pigmentosum der DNA-Reparaturdefekt für die hohe Melanominzidenz verantwortlich gemacht. In Melanomzellen sind überzufällig häufig karyotypische Veränderungen in bestimmten Chromosomen gefunden worden. Diese enthalten möglicherweise Melanomwachstumsregulierende Sequenzen oder Melanom-Suppressorgene. Insbesondere der kurze Arm des Chromosoms 9 steht in Verdacht, eines dieser Gene zu enthalten. Diese Hypothese wird auch unterstützt durch eine genetische Kopplungsanalyse an Melanomfamilien und dem Nachweis einer Keimbahndeletion des Lokus 9p21 bei einer Patientin mit 8 primären Melanomen. Veränderungen an bereits bekannten Tumorsuppressorgenen oder Onkogenen sind ebenfalls in Melanomen beschrieben worden, ohne daß jedoch eine konsistente Reihenfolge von genetischen Ereignissen bekannt wäre.

    Notes: Abstract Pepper (Capsicum chinense Jacq.) has been reported to be an important reservoir of resistance genes to tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). The genes for TSWV resistance present in three C. chinense lines (‘PI 152225’, ‘PI 159236’ and ‘Panca’) were investigated for allelism. All resistant lines were crossed with each other. Parents, F1, backcrosses and F2 populations (including reciprocals) developed from those crosses were mechanically inoculated with a highly virulent TSWV isolate. Susceptible C. annuum cv ‘Magda’ was used to check inoculum virulence. Fifty plants of the F1 hybrids; ‘Magda’ x ‘PI 152225’, ‘Magda’ x ‘PI 159236’, and ‘Magda’ x 'Panca, were also inoculated with the TSWV isolate. The resistance response in all C. chinense sources was associated with a localized, hypersensitive-like reaction that was phenotypically expressed as a prompt formation of large local lesions accompanied by premature leaf abscission. All F1 generations presented a final score of resistant; indicating that the expression of resistance to TSWV is conditioned by a dominant gene regardless of the source. The absence of segregation for resistance to TSWV that was observed in all generations of the crosses between C. chinense lines indicated that either a tightly linked group of genes exists or that the resistance is governed by the same single major gene (probably the already described Tsw gene). Previous reports have indicated that the Tsw gene is not effective against tospovirus members of serogroup II, i.e. tomato chlorotic spot virus (TCSV) and groundnut ring spot virus (GRSV). In the assay described here, all of the C. chinense lines showed, after mechanical inoculation, an identical susceptibility response to the TCSV and GRSV isolates.

    Notes: Abstract The Brazilian tropical adapted soybeans contains, in addition to superior morphological characters, genetic factors for tolerance to cultivation in acidic, mineral-stressed soils. However, the selection process for these hindrances has been empirical, and information on the genetics of mineral element uptake by the plant is necessary. The objective of this investigation was to identify the mode of inheritance for the absorption of phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, aluminium, manganese, zinc and copper in a 9 × 9 diallel cross. General combining ability (GCA) was higher than specific combining ability (SCA), with the exception of copper, manganese and zinc, indicating predominantly additive effects. The ratios of GCA/SCA varied between 3.4 (calcium) and 8.5 (magnesium). The regression of covariance (Wr) on variance (Vr) showed that the additive-dominance model explained the genetic differences in this germ plasm. However, the detection of overdominance could be related to possible heterozygosity in the parental varieties for mineral absorption. Broad-sense heritability values were higher than narrow sense heritability values for aluminium, iron, potassium, calcium and magnesium, being in the range of 67.9–86.9% and 42.0–56.6%, respectively. This is an indication that soybeans can be further improved to efficient utilisation of nutrients and to tolerate toxic factors in the soil.

    Notes: Abstract It is commonly thought thatμ-receptors play an important role in the reinforcing effects of opioids. In the present study, inbred strains widely divergent in CNS opiate receptor densities were used to investigate the influence of genetic variation in receptor concentration on opioid-reinforced behavior. In particular, the CXBK/ByJ mice were used as an investigative tool because of their significantly lower number of CNSμ opioid receptors. The behavioral pharmacology of opioids in theμ-deficient CXBK/ByJ mice was compared to other commonly used inbred mouse strains, C57BL/6J and BALB/cJ, and the opiate receptor rich CXBH/ByJ mice. Operant opioid reinforced behavior, opioid-induced locomotor stimulation, analgesia and respiratory depression were investigated in all four inbred strains. To assess the acquisition and maintenance of opioid reinforced behavior, oral self-administration of the potent benzimidazole opioid, etonitazene, was determined using an operant fixed-ratio schedule of reinforcement (FR 8). Acquisition of etonitazene-reinforced behavior was established in all four strains including theμ-deficient CXBK/ByJ mice. However, there were significant genetic differences in the amount of drug intake during the maintenance of opioid-reinforced behavior and extinction behavior following vehicle substitution. For example, drug intake was significantly greater in the BK versus BH mice during the maintenance phase and an extinction burst was seen in the BH but not the BK mice following vehicle substitution. Thus,μ-receptor density may not account for individual variability in the acquisition of opioid-reinforced behavior under these conditions. Sensitivity to etonitazene-induced respiratory depression, stimulation of locomotor activity and analgesia were unrelated to drug intake during self-administration sessions across these four inbred strains. These data indicate that inherited differences in CNSμ-opiate receptor concentrations do not affect acquisition of etonitazene-reinforced behavior.

    Notes: Abstract Among inbred mice, genetic factors mediate differences in sensitivity to the convulsant properties of cocaine; however, the gene(s) underlying cocaine's effects have not been identified. To help elucidate the gene(s) responsible for cocaine seizure susceptibility, we used recombinant inbred-quantitative trait loci (RI-QTL) analyses to identify chromosomal loci associated with cocaine-induced seizures. RI-QTL analyses seek to identify associations between a quantitative measure of a particular phenotype and one or more previously mapped marker genes across a panel of RI strains. This report describes an RI-QTL analysis of cocaine seizure susceptibility among 26 BXD RI strains. These strains showed a skewed, bimodal range of seizure susceptibility which could be the result of one or more modifying genes acting in concert with a major gene to influence cocaine sensitivity. Correlating the percent seizures displayed by each strain following 60 mg/kg cocaine with chromosomal marker data for these strains revealed a number of significant correlations clustered in two regions on chromosomes 12 and 6. This is the first identification of putative chromosomal loci associated with a cocaine-related phenotype and should facilitate identification of the gene(s) underlying cocaine toxicity and other cocaine-related phenotypes.

    Notes: Abstract The sex segregation ratio was checked in bi-parental families of Actinidia deliciosa (2n=6x=174) obtained by crossing four females (A12, Mo3, Br4, Hw1) with two males (T2, M1) and one fruiting male (M3h, subandroecious) according to a factorial mating design. The M3h fruiting male was also selfed. The sex ratio was checked in maternal families of A. kolomikta (2n=2x) and A. chinensis (2n=2x) as well as in A. deliciosa. Seedlings of both diploid species took 3–4 years to progress beyond juvenility, whereas a noticeable number of seedlings from biparental crosses of A. deliciosa involving A12 and Hw1 as seed parents were still non-flowering after seven growing seasons. Open-pollinated families of both diploid and hexaploid species as well as most families from biparental crosses showed a sex segregation ratio approaching 1∶1. Subandroecious lines with different degrees of ovary and pistil development appeared in proportions of 0–4.2%, depending on the cross, but only 6 of the 2567 male vines checked were capable of setting fruit. No case of self-fertility or apomixis was detected among 1866 bagged female vines. Selfed M3h progenies gave only female and male phenotypes in a ratio of 1 female to 3 males. No off-type vines were found among these progenies. The same disomic sex segregation ratio seems to be operating at different ploidy levels in the genus Actinidia. Since selfed fruiting males produced both female and male individuals, the male sex appears to be the heterogametic one. Such evidence indicates that a monofactorial system based on one or more linked genes or on an X/Y chromosome set must be controlling sex expression. How a monofactorial sex-determining mechanism could operate in polyploids to give a 1∶1 female: male ratio is discussed. Minor modifying gene(s) seem to be responsible for the feminization of males, and their expression appears enhanced by environmental conditions. Masculinizing gene(s) seem to be lacking in female genotypes.

    Notes: Abstract We have genetically mapped the genes encoding four human adrenergic receptors (ARs) of subtypes α1C, α2A, α2B, and β1, which are prototypic G protein coupled receptors that mediate the physiological effects of neurotransmitters, hormones, and drugs. We placed these genes onto the Cooperative Human Linkage Center (CHLC) and Genethon framework maps, within confidence intervals with greater than 1000∶1 odds. With multipoint analysis the α1C gene (locus ADRA1C) mapped to the interval between NEFL and D8S283; α2-C4, the gene encoding the α2C AR (locus ADRA2C), mapped to the interval between D4S126 and D4S62; and the α2-C10 (α2A AR)/β1 haplotype (loci ADRA2A/ ADRB1) mapped to the interval between D10S259 and D10S187. A fifth AR gene, β2, yielded significant LOD scores with markers on the long arm of chromosome 5; however, this locus (ADRB2) could not be mapped to any specific interval with odds of greater than 1000∶1. The two AR genes that are completely linked, α2-C10 and β1, were oriented on their shared 225-kb genomic fragment relative to the direction of transcription, with β1 being 5′ to α2-C10. The positioning of these genes on high-density framework maps allows them to be tested as candidates in a spectrum of diseases that might involve AR dysfunction.

    Notes: Abstract In the search for new risk factors for diabetic macroangiopathy the insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene was studied in 237 consecutive patients (125 men and 112 women) with non-insulin-dependent diabetes. The female population showed an excess of ischemic electro-cardiographic changes or definite myocardial infarctions in the patients homozygous for the deletion [D/D; odds ratio (OR) 2.8; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.4–5.3] and in the insertion/deletion heterozygotes (I/D; OR 1.8; CI 1.1–3.1) compared with the patients homozygous for the insertion (I/I). In the total series coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and claudication were more often observed in the patients with I/D (OR 1.5; CI 1.0–2.2) or the D/D genotype patients (OR 1.7; CI 1.1–2.6) than in those with the genotype I/I. The systolic blood pressure was lower in patients with genotype I/I (138±19 mmHg) than in those with the genotype I/D (149±22 mmHg) or D/D (150±21 mmHg; P〈0.02). The prevalence of hypertension and the median urinary albumin excretion rate also tended to be lowest in the I/I genotype patients. Multiple logistic analysis revealed that in women the angiotensin-converting enzyme D/D genotype is independently associated with coronary heart disease. Our findings suggest that variation at the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene locus is one of the factors involved in the predisposition of diabetic patients to the development of arterial disease and hypertension.

    Notes: Abstract The inheritance of focal dystonias was investigated in 43 families containing 43 index cases with torticollis (n = 21), blepharospasm (n = 18) and writer's cramp (n = 4). They generated a potential population of 235 first-degree relatives, and 168 out of 179 living first-degree relatives were examined. Ten relatives with dystonia were identified in ten families. Another two parents from two of the same group of ten families were affected according to the family history. The majority of the secondary cases (six patients, five siblings, and one child) were not aware of any dystonia. The tendency for affected relatives to have the same type of dystonia as index patients was observed only for torticollis. Overall, 23% of index patients had relatives with dystonia. Segregation analysis suggested the presence of an autosomal dominant gene or genes with reduced penetrante underlying focal dystonia.

    Notes: Abstract Epstein-Barr-virus (EBV)-transformed lymphoblastoid B-cell lines were generated from peripheral blood lymphocytes of 55 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and 44 healthy relatives. All donors have previously been extensively characterized with regard to clinical, serologic, and genetic parameters. Here, peripheral blood lymphocytes and lines were characterized for cell surface antigens. Furthermore, autoantibody production and proliferation rate of the cell lines were monitored. A significant difference between patients and relatives was the lower proliferation rate of EBV-transformed cell lines of the SLE patients. All SLE cell lines are available for interested researches and can be obtained from the European Cell Bank, Salisbury, UK.

    Notes: Summary The genetic investigation of fungi has been extended substantially by DNA-mediated transformation, providing a supplement to more conventional genetic approaches based upon sexual and parasexual processes. Initial transformation studies with the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae provided the model for transformation systems in other fungi with regard to methodology, vector construction and selection strategies. There are, however, certain differences betweenS. cerevisiae and filamentous fungi with regard to type of genomic insertion and the availability of shuttle vectors. Single-site linked insertions are common in yeast due to the high level of homology required for recombination between vectored and genomic sequences, whereas mycelial fungi often show a high frequency of heterologous and unlinked insertions, often in the form of random and multiple-site integrations. While extrachromosomally-maintained or replicative vectors are readily available for use with yeasts, such vectors have been difficult to construct for use with filamentous fungi. The development of vectors for replicative transformation with these fungi awaits further study. It is proposed that replicative vectors may be inherently less efficient for use with mycelial fungi relative to yeasts, since the mycelium, as an extended and semicontinuous network of cells, may delimit an adequate diffusion of the vector carrying the selectable gene, thus leading to a high frequency of abortive or unstable transformants.

    Notes: Abstract The participation of adolescents in genetic research engenders unusual problems concerning the nature of their informed consent. In this study we analyze 70 consent documents collected from genetics investigators in the United States who conduct research with children and adolescents. We find that many consent documents do not reflect either the current or the developing ethical and legal standards for research with adolescents and that in many cases the documents are simply confusing or unclear. We make recommendations for change to reflect more adequately the changing perspective concerning the autonomous decision-making capacity of adolescents.

    Notes: Synopsis The conservation status and factors threatening fishes worldwide are reviewed in order to introduce a series of one-page articles on ‘Threatened fishes of the world’, and to encourage the incorporation of information on threatened fishes into international conservation programmes. Information on fish extinction and threat rates are compared with those of other animal groups, and the unique characteristics of fish conservation problems are highlighted. At present 979 species of fishes are listed as threatened in the IUCN Red List and at least 36 species and three subspecies are listed as recently extinct. It is argued that these figures are probably gross underestimates and that they may mislead conservation authorities and resource users about the seriousness of the situation. Freshwater fishes may be the most threatened group of vertebrates after the Amphibia. Urgent action is required to save many narrowly endemic, stenotopic species from extinction, especially in Africa, Asia and South America. The conservation of common species that drive essential ecological processes is also important. Anthropogenic pressures, especially habitat degradation, the introduction of invasive species and pollution, on inland and coastal waters are particularly severe and many major fish communities are threatened with elimination throughout the world. The conservation of marine fishes is complicated by the fact that it is difficult to ascertain their rarity. The importance of the retention of genetic variation is highlighted, and both orthodox and innovative conservation measures are encouraged. Further research on minimum viable populations, genetics, and the factors that cause fishes to become vulnerable to extinction, is urgently required.

    Notes: Abstract The wild tetraploid (2n=28) oat species Avena magna and A. murphyi have been domesticated by having been transferred from the common oat, A sativa (2n=42), the characteristics of non-shedding spikelets glabrous and yellow lemma, and reduced awn formation. Domestication has been achieved by crossing the common oat with either of the tetraploid species and then backcrossing the pentaploid hybrids with pollen of the tetraploid wild parent. Among the BC plants obtained only a few produced some seeds. Fertile tetraploids exhibiting the domesticated syndrome have been selected for in the F2 generation. Although morphologically they were almost indistinguishable from the common oat, they were tetraploids. Wild x domesticated A. magna hybrids were vigorous and fertile. They retained their spikelets at maturity, lemma color and pubescence were intermediate between the parental lines, and awns were formed only on the lower floret of the spikelet. Each of these characteristics segregated in a 3∶1 fashion, indicating single gene control, as in the common oat. These four characteristics formed a linkage group in one F2 family and two linkage groups in the other two families. The usefulness of the domesticated tetraploids for oat research and production has been discussed. Taxonomically, the domesticated tetraploids were ranked as subspecies: A. magna ssp. domestica, and A. murphyi ssp. rigida.

    Notes: A retention model for the chiral separation of an uncharged solute, felodipine, on CHIRAL-AGP, using a micellar mobile phase is proposed. The model assumes the presence of two stereoselective sites and each enantiomer was found to interact with different sites. Addition of a chiral aliphatic alcohol, (+)-(S)-2-octanol, preferentially interacted with the binding site for (-)-(S)-felodipine. The monomeric form of the micellar agent (Tween® 20) competed with the enantiomers for the adsorption sites, and the formation of a 1:1 complex between the enantiomers and the micelles was assumed. The retention of the solutes was effectively controlled by adding small quantities (〈1.63 × 10-3 M) of the nonionic detergent Tween 20 to the mobile phase. Baseline separation was achieved by addition of 1.0 mM n-octylamine to the mobile phase; 8.14 × 10-4 M Tween 20 in phosphate buffer pH 7.0. The separation factor (α = 1.74) was unaffected by the detergent concentration in the presence of 1.0 mM n-octylamine. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A widely utilized pig liver esterase preparation has been found to be derived essentially exclusively from the cytosolic fraction of pig livers. Esterases in cytosol and microsomes prepared from a fresh pig liver hydrolyzed the S- and R-enantiomers of racemic oxazepam 3-acetate (rac-OXA) with specific activity ratios of approximately 2.3:1 and 1:62, respectively. Product formations were analyzed by chiral stationary phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The commercial pig liver esterase preparation showed greater activity toward S-OXA than did the esterases in the cytosolic fraction prepared from fresh pig liver. The results established that (i) esterases contained in microsomes and cytosol of pig liver have opposite enantioselectivity in the hydrolysis of rac-OXA and (ii) the commercial pig liver esterase preparation has a cytosolic origin. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Chiral symmetry breaking can be realized in stirred crystallization of Na-ClO3. We present experimental and theoretical studies of the random distribution of crystal enantiomeric excess (cee) for various stirring and solvent evaporation rates. For a fixed solvent evaporation rate, as the stirring RPM is increased, the probability distribution of cee initially broadens and subsequently develops a sharp peak close to cee = 1. On further increase of stirring rate, the probability distribution once again broadens. This broad probability distribution becomes narrow, with a sharp peak near cee = 1, if the solvent evaporation rate is decreased. Thus we show some ways in which the probability distribution of cee can be controlled in stirred crystallization. In particular, our study shows that the stirring rate and the solvent evaporation rate can be adjusted to maximize crystal enantiomeric excess. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The circular dichroism (CD) spectra of a series of oxygenated 2-(dipropylamino)tetralin derivatives are reported. On the basis of known absolute configurations and conformational preferences of the compounds, the validity of published correlations between the sign of the 1Lb Cotton effect and the three-dimensional structure was examined. Contrary to predictions, substitution in position 6 or 7 of the tetralin moiety did not change the sign of the 1Lb Cotton effect. An unexpected sign inversion was, however, observed in some of the compounds containing methyl substituents in the nonaromatic ring. The occurrence of this inversion was not correlated with a change in conformational behaviour and varied depending on the position and nature of the aromatic substituent. No correlations were obvious between the sign of the 1Lb Cotton effect and the absolute configuration and conformational preferences of the compounds. Therefore, at present, CD spectroscopy does not appear to be useful in assignments of the absolute configurations of 2-(dipropylamino)tetralin derivatives. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The diastereofacial selectivity of both inter- and intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions with dienes having an allylic stereogenic center has been studied by varying the allylic oxygen protective group. Four different hydroxy protective groups were investigated including benzyl, t-butyldiphenylsilyl, triethylsilyl, and t-butyldimethylsilyl ethers. For intermolecular reactions, the benzyl ether derivative gave the highest sπ-facial selectivity through a transition state in which the allylic stereocenter favors the CH eclipsed conformation. For intramolecular cycloadditions, the t-butyldimethylsilyl group gave a slightly higher selectivity than the benzyl ether derivative through a transition state in which the allylic stereocenter favors the CO eclipsed conformation. The opposite diastereofacial selectivity observed for inter- and intramolecular reactions is explained by considering both steric and electronic effects. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The hydroformylation of (+)-(R)-limonene (1), (+)-(1R)-isolimonene (2), camphene (3), and (+)-β-cedrene (4) resulted in the regiospecific formation of the corresponding linear aldehyde in the presence of homogeneous platinum and, in some cases, rhodium catalysts. The epimeric composition could be influenced slightly by optically active catalysts formed with chiral bidentate phosphines. The relative configurations of newly formed stereogenic centers were analyzed by 1H and 13C NMR. The primarily formed aldehydes of (+)-8(15)-cedren-9-ol (5) and γ-gurjunene (6) underwent cyclization, giving a mixture of epimers of tetracyclic terpenes. Despite the moderate diastereoselection, the products are of practical importance due to their highly regioselective formation. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Assessing the reactivity of optical antipodes is of central importance in drug research. Using the model of 2-methoxy-2-phenylacetic acid-4-nitrophenylester (MPE), the rate of hydrolysis in the presence of β-cyclodextrin (CD), hydroxyethyl- and hydroxypropyl-β-CD, as well as methyl-β-CD is studied photometrically and by means of HPLC (Chiralcel-OD-R-column). Both β-CD and hydroxyalkylated-β-CD catalyze (-)-(R)-enantiomers to a larger extent than (+)-(S)-enantiomers, resulting in an enrichment of the latter. Methyl-β-CD stabilizes the ester trifold, thus abolishing chiral discrimination. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The conformational equilibrium of aminosuccinyl peptides between extended conformations and an intramolecularly hydrogen bonded type II′ β-turn conformation has been studied on the peptide Boc-L-Asu-Gly-L-Ala-OMe (Asu = aminosuccinyl residue) by means of temperature dependence of circular dichroism spectra.Owing to the peculiar chiroptical and conformational properties of the Asu residue, this technique proved to be very useful for deriving thermodynamic data for the above folding process. The value of ΔH0 (-6.6 kJ mol-1), obtained for the peptide studied in a chloroformacetonitrile mixture, shows that the lower energy of the folded conformer is primarily due to the characteristic intramolecular hydrogen bond of the β turns. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: This paper presents a systematic comparison of liquid chromatography (LC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) for Chiralcel OD and Chiralpak AD chiral stationary phases (CSPs), performed using various chiral compounds having a known or potential pharmaceutical activity. The chiral recognition mechanisms involved in LC and SFC for the enantiomeric separation of β-blockers have been studied more particularly. As a general rule, it appears that the presence of polar functions, like primary or secondary hydroxyl or amine functions, may result in marked discrepancies in selectivity between LC and SFC. This result is peculiar to cellulose- and amylose-derived CSPs, for which the interactions involved in chiral recognition mechanism are not always well balanced, contrary to what happens for independent CSPs. In the case of chiral resolution of polar solutes or polymer-type CSPs, the analyst should try both the LC and SFC techniques to be able to choose the more stereoselective one. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: We have previously shown that (R)-5-amino-4-hydroxyvaleric acid [(R)-4-OH-DAVA] and (S)-2-OH-DAVA bind to GABAB receptor sites and antagonize GABAB receptor-mediated function in a stereoselective manner. Furthermore, we have identified energy-minimized superimposable conformations of (R)-4-OH- and (S)-2-OH-DAVA which are assumed to reflect the receptor-active conformations of these compounds. This paper describes the in vitro enantiopharmacology of 5-amino-4-hydroxy-2-methylvaleric acid (2-Me-4-OH-DAVA). Whereas none of the four stereoisomers showed significant affinity for GABAA receptor sites or GABA uptake mechanisms in rat brain synaptic membranes, (2R,4R)-2-Me-4-OH-DAVA was shown to inhibit stereoselectively the binding of [3H]GABA to rat brain GABAB receptor sites (IC50 = 14 ± 4 μM). (2R,4R)-2-Me-4-OH-DAVA (Ki = 36 μM) and, with much lower potency, (2S,4R)-2-Me-4-OH-DAVA (Ki = 370 μM) stereoselectively antagonized GABAB receptor-mediated function in the isolated guinea pig ileum. The structure of the eutomer, (2R,4R)-2-Me-4-OH-DAVA, was established by an X-ray crystallographic analysis, and the solid-state conformation of (2R,4R)-2-Me-4-OH-DAVA was compared with the proposed receptor-active conformations of (R)-4-OH-DAVA and (S)-2-OH-DAVA. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A high-performance liquid chromatography and molecular modelling study is presented for the diastereomeric adducts of a series of chiral thiol compounds and chiral amine compounds after reaction with o-phthalaldehyde (OPA). It is shown that the possibility of hydrogen bonds forming between the thiol and amino residues in the diastereomeric adducts is an important factor for obtaining good selectivity. The experimental elution orders were explained on the basis of the strength of the interaction between the polar groups of the thiol and amine constituents; it was found that the diastereomeric form having the largest distance between these groups always eluted first. Moreover, within a series of OPA derivatives, the differences between the Boltzmann weighted averages of the distances between the polar groups of the two diastereomers show a good correlation with the experimental selectivities. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Racemic hydroxychloroquine-sulfate (HCQ-sulfate) was administered to rats orally. Groups of 9 male and 9 female rats received doses of 0, 8, 16, or 24 mg/kg/day for 6 weeks, followed by a reduction of the higher doses to 8 mg/kg/day for the duration of the study. Whole blood samples were collected at 0, 3, 6, 8, and 10 weeks, and eleven tissues were harvested after the tenth week. The concentrations and enantiomer ratios of the parent drug and three metabolites, desethylhydroxychloroquine (DHCQ), desethylchloroquine (DCQ), and bisdesethylchloroquine (BDCQ), were determined. The highest concentration of HCQ was found in the intestinal smooth muscle, and the lowest in the brain and adipose tissue. The highest concentrations of the metabolites were found in the liver, adrenals, and lung tissue.The metabolism of HCQ in the rats was found to be stereoselective with R/S 〉 1 for the drug and 〈 1 for the metabolites. Gender-specific differences in the proportions of the drug and its metabolites and their enantiomers in blood and tissue were found. Varying dosages appeared to have only a temporary influence on blood concentrations and not to effect the enantiomer ratios in blood. Only a limited number of tissues exhibited significant differences between dose groups. There were no observed differences in enantiomer ratios among the blood collection times. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The influence of endotoxin-induced inflammation was studied on the pharmacokinetics of the enantiomers of the racemic drugs oxprenolol, propranolol, and verapamil in rabbits and dogs. Enantioselective pharmacokinetics were seen for oxprenolol and propranolol in the rabbit and for propranolol and verapamil in the dog. In the dog, the enantioselective differences in plasma concentrations are due to differences in both protein binding and metabolism, whereas in the rabbit the differences are due solely to differences in metabolism. In both species endotoxin treatment increases the plasma concentrations of the enantiomers of the three drugs; both protein binding and metabolism are influenced. In rabbits and in dogs, the influence of endotoxin on the disposition of the three drugs is less enantioselective than was previously observed in the rat. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A direct, isocratic, and simple reversed-phase HPLC method was described for the separation of enantiomers of the proton pump inhibitor, rac-pantoprazole (PAN) using cellulose-based chiral stationary phases (Chiralcel OD-R and Chiralcel OJ-R). Some structurally related chiral benzimidazole sulfoxides, rac-omeprazole (OME) and raclansoprazole (LAN), were also studied. Chiralcel OJ-R was successful in the resolution of enantiomers of rac-PAN and rac-OME, while Chiralcel OD-R was most suitable for resolving the enantiomers of rac-LAN. Highest enantioselectivity to rac-PAN and rac-OME was achieved on Chiralcel OJ-R by using acetonitrile as an organic modifier, whereas methanol afforded better resolution of rac-LAN on Chiralcel OD-R than acetonitrile. Increases in buffer concentration and column temperature decreased retention and did not improve the resolution of the enantiomers on both columns. Using a mixture of 50 mM sodium perchlorate solution and acetonitrile as a mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min, maximum separation factors of 1.26 and 1.13 were obtained for the enantiomers of rac-PAN and rac-OME using a Chiralcel OJ-R column, while maximum separation factor of 1.16 was obtained for the enantiomers of rac-LAN using a Chiralcel OD-R column. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Three endocyclic sulfoximides of the 1-aryl- and 1-alkyl-3-oxo-benzo[d]-isothia (IV)-azole 1-oxide type (1-substituent = 2′-carboxyphenyl, 2′-carbethoxyphenyl, and octyl, respectively) were found to be well resolved on a chiral phase derived from bovine serum albumin (BSA). Selectivities (α) of 1.74, 1.12, and 1.44, respectively, were obtained. The retention behaviour of 1-octyl-3-oxo-benzo[d]isothia(IV)-azole 1-oxide was further investigated in some detail as a function of the mobile phase composition and the elution order was established from optically active material obtained from the enantiopure sulfoxide precursor. An enantiomeric excess of 85.4% was obtained in the cyclocondensation reaction of the octyl-substituted sulfoxide precursor with hydrazoic acid to the corresponding endocyclic sulfoximide. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The chromatographic quantitation of very low amounts of an enantiomer in the presence of its antipode can be an extraordinary challenge. If resolution of the peaks is not complete even at extreme mass ratios an integrator will yield inaccurate results due to geometric effects. A given resolution can be adequate for peaks of similar size but result in severe overlap if one of the signals is markedly smaller. If tailing occurs, which is more the rule than the exception, the problem is especially severe for last eluted small peaks. Additional obstacles are detector nonlinearity and other sources of unsatisfactory calibration curves, overloading phenomena, and the possible lack of standards of highest optical purity. These problems have been studied by computer simulations and the liquid chromatographic separation of (R,S)-phenylethyl naphthoic acid amide on a chiral stationary phase. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The enantiomers of rac-2,2′-diiodobiphenyl were separated by liquid chromatography on microcrystalline triacetylcellulose. The conformational lability, a large separation factor α, and a suitable capacity factor k′(+) of this biphenyl allowed us to convert the racemate into 90% of enantiomerically pure (-)-2,2′-diiodobiphenyl and 10% of pure (+)-2,2′-diiodobiphenyl, respectively, by a series of in situ racemization-elution cycles. The much better retained (+)-enantiomer was racemized on the chromatographic column at 50°C after the less retained (-)-enantiomer has already been eluted at 8°C. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of (S)- and (R)- ketoprofen (KTP) enantiomers were studied in calves after intravenous administration of each enantiomer at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg. Pharmacodynamic properties were evaluated using a model of acute inflammation, comprising subcutaneously implanted tissue cages stimulated by intracaveal injection of carrageenan.Chiral inversion of (R)-KTP to the (S)-antipode occurred. The R:S ratio in plasma was 33:15 min after administration, decreasing to 1:1 at 8 h. The calculated extent of inversion was 31 ± 7%. The R:S ratio in inflammatory exudate was of the order 3:1 at all the sampling times and the ratio in transudate was approximately 2:1 for 6 h, declining to 1:1 at 30 h. Only (S)-KTP was detected in biological fluids after administration of this enantiomer. Elimination half-life was longer for the (S) (2.19 h) than the (R)-enantiomer (1.30 h) and volume of distribution was also somewhat higher for the (S)-enantiomer. Body clearance values were 0.119 1/kg/h for (S)-KTP and 0.151 1/kg/h for the (R)-antipode. For (R)-KTP effects obtained were considered as a hybrid, since they potentially reflect the actions of both enantiomers. Concentrations of LTB4 and the cytokines interleukin-1, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha, in exudate were not significantly affected by either (R)- or (S)-KTP treatments. Inhibition of ex vivo thromboxane B2 (TxB2) synthesis, exudate prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis, β-glucuronidase release (β-glu), and bradykinin-induced skin swelling was significant in both treated groups. PK/PD modelling was applied to the (S)-KTP treatment only. EC50 values for inhibition of serum TxB2, exudate PGE2 and β-glu and BK-induced swelling were 0.047, 0.042, 0.101, and 0.038 μg/ml, respectively. It is concluded that the low EC50 values for inhibition of TxB2 and PGE2 by (S)-KTP are likely to explain the effects produced by (R)-KTP administration, since concentrations of (S)-KTP in exudate of these calves following chiral inversion were at least 5 times higher than the EC50 at all sampling times. The data for β-glu and bradykinin-induced swelling inhibition indicate possible inhibitory actions of (R)-KTP as well as (S)-KTP. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: An alternative method based on linear systems analysis is presented for the analysis of concentration-time data for the enantiomers of the 2-arylpropionic acids. This approach uses deconvolution to estimate the rate and extent of chiral inversion with respect to time, assuming linear pharmacokinetics and time invariance, without the need for complicated modelling procedures. Application to data for the chiral inversion of ibuprofen in the rat indicates that this approach provides a valid alternative to previous procedures for the analysis of chiral inversion data. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Binary diastereomeric (-) (1R,2S)-ephedrine salts of various mandelic acids obtained from 95% ethanol show considerable differences in solubility. Structures and some properties of the less-soluble (L) and more-soluble (M) solid phases of (-)-ephedrine with unsubstituted mandelic acid, 2-, 3-, and 4-monosubstituted halo (F, Cl, Br) mandelic acids, and 3- and 4-methylmandelic acids have been determined. Salts were found to be binary, without solvent of crystallization, and composed of double-layered arrays of alternating anions and cations linked by H-bonds normal to the layers. H-bonding links charged donors and acceptors usually along a crystallographic 2-fold screw axis. A striking discrimination is evident in that the (2R)-mandelate salts typically display a compact four-atom chain as the H-bonding repeating unit [+N - H…O( - C- - O)…H-N′, C21(4)] while the (2S)-mandelate salts adopt a more dimensionally variable six-atom chain repeating unit [+N - H…O - C- - O…H - N′, C22(6)]. Two distinct packing schemes display the shorter H-bonding chain of the (2R)-mandelates which always occurs with ephedrinium ions in the fully extended conformation. Slightly greater packing efficiency and H-bonding energies of the (2R)-mandelate salts correlates with increased fusion points, lower solubilities (95% ethanol), and higher heats of fusion relative to the phase adopted by their diastereoisomers. In contrast, (2S)-mandelate salts exhibit considerably more structural variability involving all three major ephedrinium conformations, and at least four distinct packing motifs. Mandelates with larger 3′-substituents (Cl, Br, methyl) show similar property discriminations, but these occur with an opposing trend, that is, between phases in which the less-soluble salts contain (2S)-mandelates. Salts with 2-bromomandelate do not show property disparities and their structures are dissimilar to the other phases. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: An optical resolution of the amide derivatives of ibuprofen and the carbamate-alkylester derivatives of the trans-alcohol metabolite of loxoprofen and an analogous compound, CS-670, was studied by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The chiral columns SUMIPAX OA-4000 and OA-4100 were used to investigate the enantiomeric separation behavior of these derivatives using both reversed and normal mobile phases. A better separation factor (α) of the amide and the carbamate ester derivatives was obtained in the normal mobile phase than in the reversed mobile phase HPLC. In addition, the recognition mechanisms of both amide and carbamate ester enantiomers were investigated by 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). It is suggested that the important driving forces for the enantiomeric separation are the formation of hydrogen bonding and the charge transfer complex between these derivatives and an active site of the chiral stationary phase. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Kinetics of acid-catalyzed heteronucleophilic substitution and racemization of enantiomeric MeOX in ethanol and enantiomeric EtOX in methanol were studied by quenching reaction products at various times by neutralization. Enantiomeric contents of remaining substrate and reaction product were determined by chiral stationary phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The experimental procedure allowed the determination of the stereoselectivity (i.e., the enantiomeric ratio of a substitution product formed from an enantiomerically pure substrate) involved in the heteronucleophilic substitution reactions. The stereoselectivity was found to vary between 58:42 and 87:13, depending on the acid concentration, substrate, solvent, and temperature. The enantiomeric purity of remaining substrates was identical to that of the starting substrate, indicating that the enantiomeric substrates did not undergo a ring-opening reaction. The results provided additional evidence supporting the mechanism proposed earlier in acid-catalyzed stereoselective heteronucleophilic and homonucleophilic substitutions and the resulting racemization of enantiomeric 3-alkoxy-1,4-benzodiazepines in alcoholic solvents. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The solubility behaviour of praziquantel enantiomeric system at -15°C, 4°C, and 15°C is presented. This system exhibits both a pseudoracemate behaviour and one which leads to the formation of enantiomerically pure crystals. For solutions with lower enantiomeric purity, the pseudoracemate behaviour is more prominent. Solid solutions are formed when the mixtures of the enantiomers are crystallised. The phase diagram shows a complete absence of a eutetic. For mixtures with higher enantiomeric purity, pure crystals of the excess enantiomer are obtained when the solution is crystallised. Temperature dependency of this polymorphism is not significant. With these phase diagrams, a method is suggested to obtain enantiomerically pure isomers of praziquantel from a partially resolved mixture. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The chiral recognition property of poly[(1→6)-2,5-anhydro-3,4-di-O-alkyl-D-glucitol] (1) toward racemic RCH (CO2CH3)NH3+ · PF6- (2 · HPF6) has been studied using a transport system involving an aqueous source and receiving phases separated by a chloroform phase containing 1. Transport rates for aromatic guests 2a (R = Ph) and 2b (R = CH2Ph) were faster than those for aliphatic guests, 2c (R = CH(CH3)2) and 2d (R = CH2CH(CH3)2), using the polymer substituted with methyl groups (1a). The enantiomeric excess (e.e.) was 10.9% for 2a as a maximum value and decreased in the order of 2a 〉 2c 〉 2b = 2d. When the transport of 2a · HPF6 was carried out using the polymers with 3,4-di-O-methyl (1a), ethyl (1b), allyl (1c), and pentyl (1d) groups, the e.e. was 22.0% for 1d as a maximum value and increased in the order of 1a 〈 1b 〈 1c 〈 1d. The formation of a complex between 1a and 2a · HPF6 was confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR spectral measurements. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The effect of structural features of six pairs of enantiomers of cannabimimetic compounds on their chromatographic resolution on an amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phase was studied using various compositions of n-hexane with 2-propanol and ethanol. Structural analysis by molecular mechanics was also performed to verify that the 3D conformation within this family of compounds was preserved with substitution. The homologous enantiomeric pairs showed better resolution when there was an additional OH group near the chiral centers (position 7 on the cannabinoid structure). Better resolution was observed also for the enantiomeric pair that had the smaller alkyl side chain. These differences indicated that the additional OH group contributed to a better discrimination of the enantiomers by the chiral sites of the stationary phase and that the bulkier alkyl side chain reduced it. The chromatographic resolution of two enantiomeric pairs of nonclassical cannabinoids HU-249 and HU-250, HU-255 and HU-256, was compared both in ethanol and 2-propanol. Both enantiomeric pairs showed relatively high resolution and selectivity, but the rigid benzofuran analogs (HU-249 and HU-250) exhibited better resolution using 2-propanol, in spite of the flexibility of the open chain analog (HU-255 and HU-256) and its additional OH group. The elution order of all the cannabinoids was (+)/(-) using both solvents. Unusual solvent effects were displayed by one enantiomeric pair, Δ6-THC, which was resolved easily using 2-propanol, but whose elution order reversed with 1% ethanol in the mobile phase. Partial separation was obtained at 5% ethanol [elution order (+)/(-)] and full separation was obtained at 0.5% ethanol [elution order (-)/(+)]. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: CD spectra of flexible organic molecules in solution are normally very sensitive to conformation. In a system composed of two or more chromophores joined by one or more single bonds and with one fixed or strongly preferred conformation, it is often possible to reproduce the CD spectrum by semiempirical calculations based on interactions between the electronic transitions in the respective chromophores. In a system containing two or more conformations of appreciable weight, the observed CD spectrum is the superposition of those of the individual conformations and has to be analyzed in terms of the individual calculated spectra and the relative energies of the respective conformations. The effect of temperature variation on conformational equilibria and on the composite CD spectra will be discussed and exemplified. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Intramolecular overcrowding in bistricyclic enes (1) requires out-of-plane deformations in order to accommodate the sterically demanding tricyclic moieties without prohibitively close contacts of nonbonded atoms. The nonplanarity of 1 introduces the notion of chirality to the arena of overcrowded aromatic enes. Deviation from coplanarity occurs by twisting around the double bond and out-of-plane bending (hence pyramidalization). The bending is realized by folding of the tricyclic moieties. The conformations of homomerous (1, × = Y) and heteromerous (1, × ≠ Y) bistricyclic enes and their mono- and disubstituted derivatives are analyzed along with their point group symmetries and chirality. The implications are illustrated using the structures of characteristic examples calculated with the semiempirical method PM3. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Systematic optimisation with central composite design offers an efficient route for rapid optimisation of resolution with multiple interacting parameters in chiral CE. This is illustrated by separations of amlodipine with α-CD as chiral selector in the running buffer, for which the predicted performance of central composite design is assessed. The utility of response surface methodology for locating optimum ruggedness in CE is also described. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Oxazepam (OX), 3-O-methyloxazepam, 3-O-ethyloxazepam, temazepam (TMZ), 3-O-methyltemazepam, and 3-O-ethyltemazepam underwent acid-catalyzed nucleophilic substitution reaction (hydrolysis) in an acetonitrile-oxygen-18 water mixture to form either OX or TMZ in which the 3-hydroxyl group was either partially or fully labeled with an oxygen-18 atom. The dependence of the hydrolysis rates on solvent composition, temperature, ionic strength, and in deuterated solvent was studied by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The rates of racemization of enantiomeric compounds in acidic aqueous solutions were studied by both spectropolarimetry and chiral stationary phase HPLC. In acetonitrile: 2.5 M H2SO4 (4:1, v/v) at 50°C, enantiomers of OX and TMZ underwent racemization at rates ≥40-fold faster than the rates of hydrolysis. Enantiomeric 3-O-alkyl derivatives of OX and TMZ in acidic aqueous solutions did not themselves undergo racemization and it was their hydrolysis products (either OX or TMZ) that underwent racemization. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A new method is described for the enrichment of enantiomeric mixtures having an enantiomeric ratio other than 1:1. The method is based on partial salt formation of the enantiomeric mixture with an achiral substance followed by the distillation of the free enantiomer. The distillate has a different enantiomeric composition than the starting mixture. The method was performed on enantiomeric mixtures of α-phenylethylamine using four different dicarboxilic acids. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Chiral stationary phases (CSPs) prepared by mixing together two different cellulose derivatives, before or after being coated on macroporous silica gel, were developed in order to determine the mutual influence of two different polymers on global chiral recognition capacity. The chromatographic properties of these CSPs were evaluated using a wide range of racemic test solutes. The mixing method does not significantly affect the enantioselectivities. The composite CSPs obtained by cocoating of two different cellulose derivatives on silica generally exhibit chiral recognition capacities intermediate between those of the two individual phases, and thus broadening the application range of a single column. These results indicate that the simultaneous coating of two different cellulose derivatives does not significantly alter the optical resolution power of each chiral material and are discussed in relationship with the supramolecular structure of the polymeric stationary phases. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A chiral separation of 5,6- and 6,7-dihydroxy-2-aminotetralin and of the corresponding dimethoxy analogues can be achieved by high-performance capillary electrophoresis using cyclodextrins as chiral selector. The selectivity of a number of native and derivatized cyclodextrins was screened and hydroxylalkyl-β-cyclodextrins turned out to be the most effective. Optimization of hydroxyethylcyclodextrin and hydroxypropylcyclodextrin concentration for each compound led to baseline separation (resolution factors from 1.7 to 2.3) resulting in a detection limit of 0.1% for the enantiomer present as impurity. Modifiers of the electroendosmotic flow, such as hydroxypropylcellulose and hexadecyltrimethylammoniun bromide, must be added to the background electrolyte to obtain such results. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The absolute configurations of the enantiomers of the opiod picenadol [cis-1,3-dimethyl-4-propyl-4-propyl-4-(3-hydroxyphenyl)piperidine; cis-3-methyl, 4-propyl] have been determined by an X-ray crystallographic study of the chloride salt of the (+)-enantiomer. The agonist (+)-enantiomer and the antagonist (-)-enantiomer were found to have the 3R, 4R and 3S, 4S absolute configurations, respectively. The conformational properties of the enantiomers were also examined with MM2-87 calculations. There was good agreement between the computed global minimum and the crystallographic structure with the phenyl ring approximately bisecting the piperidine ring by both methods. This orientation of the phenyl ring differs from that of related opioids such as the phenylmorphans, prodines, meperidine, and ketobemidone in which the phenyl ring tends to eclipse one edge of the piperidine ring. Because the phenyl ring bisects the piperidine ring in picenadol, there is little difference in the three-dimensional orientations of the phenyl rings of the two enantiomers when one superimposes the piperidine rings. The agonist (+)-enantiomer is ambiguous with respect to an opioid ligand model, which suggests that agonist activity requires a specific range of dihedral angles for the phenyl ring. While the global minimum of the agonist is not consistent with the model, a second conformer that is only 1.2 kcal/mol above the global minimum is consistent. An alternative explanation is that agonist or antagonist activity is solely due to the presence of the 3-methyl group on the different edges of the piperidine ring. MM2-87 calculations were also performed on the opioid agonist des-3-methyl analog of picenadol and the closely related trans-1,3,4-trimethyl-4-(3-hydroxyphenyl)piperidines (trans-3-methyl, 4-methyl) in which both enantiomers are opioid antagonists. The conformational properties of these compounds are consistent with the ligand model. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A direct chiral chromatographic reversed phase method for the determination of the enantiomers of felodipine is described. The influence of charged and uncharged modifiers as well as the effect of the mobile phase pH on the enantiomeric resolution is discussed. A high mobile phase pH and the addition of 2-propanol as organic modifier gave the highest separation factor (α = 1.3). The high mobile phase pH (pH = 7.6) is outside the recommended pH limit of silica based columns but was necessary to achieve baseline resolution of (R)- and (S)-felodipine. Improvement of column efficiency by increasing column temperature was utilized for optimization of the enantiomeric resolution (Rs = 1.7). The enantiomers of felodipine and three related compounds were separated within 15 min. The enantiomeric purity of (R)- and (S)-felodipine in injections and (R)-felodipine in bulk substance was higher than 99.5% and no racemization was observed after storage at accelerated conditions. A poor Chiral-AGP® column used for a long period was restored using a simple wash step together with repacking the top of the chromatographic column. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The perchlorotriphenylmethyl radical (PTM) shows enantiomerism due to restricted internal rotations. Several chiral stationary phases have been tested in different conditions for the resolution of PTM by HPLC. Only poly(triphenylmethyl methacrylate) provided sufficient resolution for carrying out a micropreparative scale separation. Racemization of (+)- and (-)-PTM was monitored polarimetrically as a function of time. The process was found to follow strict first-order kinetics. The value of ΔG#303.8 = 23.6 Kcal · mol-1 agrees with that determined previously by HPLC with the stopped flux technique (Crespo, Doctoral Thesis, CETS Institut Químic de Sarrià, 1991). Following the helicity rules in the circular dichroism spectrum, (+)-PTM can be assumed to have (P) configuration and (-)-PTM (M) configuration. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The extent of myocardial accumulation of tocainide, administered as single enantiomers and as well as racemate, was determined in the isolated, spontaneous beating rabbit heart. The heart was retrogradely perfused at a constant rate and fractions of the perfusate were collected during and after infusion. Kinetic parameters for myocardial accumulation and disposition of tocainide were indirectly determined from drug concentration/time course in the outflow perfusate. No stereoselectivity in myocardial accumulation was observed. A two compartment model with mean half-lives for distribution and elimination of 0.60 and 3.78 min, respectively, was fitted to the accumulation and disposition data. At steady-state, tocainide enantiomers were accumulated about three times in the myocardium relative to the perfusion liquid. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Ethosuximide is a chiral drug substance primarily indicated for the treatment of absence seizures. This drug is used clinically as the racemate. The urinary metabolites of ethosuximide (following i.p. administration of the racemate or individual enantiomers to rats) have been studied using chiral gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GCMS). The metabolites identified were unchanged ethosuximide enantiomers, all four stereoisomers of 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-2-methylsuccinimide, and a single stereoisomer of 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylsuccinimide [derived from (R)-ethosuximide]. Preliminary quantitative studies indicate a degree of stereoselectivity in the fate of ethosuximide since the ratio of (R)- to (S)-ethosuximide in the urine was found to be 0.77:1 (0-24 h sample), 0.64:1 (24-48 h sample), and 0.83:1 (48-72 h sample). This would suggest that the (R)-isomer is preferentially metabolised. Results obtained following the administration of individual enantiomers of ethosuximide indicate that the 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-2-methylsuccinimide diastereoisomers derived from (R)-ethosuximide are produced in approximately equal proportions [ratio 1.05:1 (0-24 h sample), 1.10:1 (24-48 h sample)], whilst those from (S)-ethosuximide are produced in unequal proportions [ratio 1.65:1 (0-24 h sample), 1.74:1 (24-48 h sample)]. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Three bis(p-vinylbenzoate) monomers, 2,3-O-isopropylidene-1,4-bis-O-(p-vinylbenzoyl)-L-threitol (BIT), methyl 4,6-O-isopropylidene-2,3-bis-O-(p-vinylbenzoyl)-α,D-glucopyranoside (BIG), and 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3,4-bis-O(p-vinylbenzoyl)-D-mannitol (BIM), were prepared and cyclocopolymerized with styrene. The resulting copolymers were hydrolyzed with KOH to remove the chiral template, and treated with diazomethane to give poly[(methyl p-vinylbenzoate)-co-styrene] [poly(MVB-co-St)]. All the poly(MVB-co-St) had a specific rotation and their CD spectra exhibit a split Cotton effect. Poly(MVB-co-St) derived from poly(BIT-co-St) showed a positive Cotton effect at 255 nm and a negative one at 235 nm. According to the exciton chirality method, poly(MVB-co-St) possessed negative chirality, and the stereochemistry of the carbon atom attached to the 4-benzoyl group had the S configuration. The absolute configuration of poly(MVB-co-St) was determined as R for the BIG/St system and S for the BIM/St system. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Separation of racemic amino drugs (α-methylbenzeneethanamine, 6-amino-2-methyl-2-heptanol and 1-aminoethyl-benzenemethanol) and thiol drugs [N-(2-mercapto-1-oxopropyl) glycine, 2-mercaptopropanoic acid, and N-acetyl-3-mercaptovaline] has been evaluated after derivatization. ortho-Phthalaldehyde (OPA) and naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (NDA) were used with either homochiral thiols (N-acetyl-L-cysteine and N-acetyl-D-penicillamine) or amines [(-)-(1R,2S)-norephedrine, L-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine, and 3-hydroxy-L-tyrosine] as chiral selectors according to the analyte reactive group. The resulting 36 diastereoisomeric derivatives were studied using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). Of the CE modes, micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant, β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-modified capillary zone electrophoresis (β-CD-CZE), and β-CD-MEKC were applied. Results highlight respective performance of the reagents and separative techniques. All OPA derivatives of racemic amino drugs were resolved either by MEKC or β-CD-MEKC. In the case of racemic thiol drugs, 10 of the 12 OPA derivatives were resolved in β-CD-CZE. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A β-cyclodextrin-bonded phase has been used to investigate the separation of the enantiomers of atenolol, oxprenolol, celiprolol, tertatolol, terbutaline, fluoxetine, norfluoxetine, and zopiclone, focusing on the importance of solvent selectivity. With cyclodextrin (CD)-bonded phases, chiral discrimination occurs because the two enantiomers of a racemate form inclusion complexes of different strengths within the CD cavity. The organic modifier molecules tend to compete with solutes for a definite number of adsorption sites on the stationary phase. Moreover, the ternary complex formation may play an important role in chiral recognition. In this study, it was of interest to estimate the influence of mobile phase modifiers with respect to solvent type (i.e., ACN, MeOH, EtOH, THF, i-PrOH, PrOH and t-BuOH), size and shape, and concentration. Solvent selectivity has been investigated by using different organic modifiers in mobile phases with the same polarity, and relationships were established between the logarithm of solvent partition coefficient (log Ps) and the three most important chromatographic parameters: retention time (t), resolution (R), and enantioselectivity (α). Thus, it seems that the hydrophobicity of the organic modifier becomes one of the dominant factors affecting the inclusion process phenomena. Further, the apparent partition coefficients of the compounds under study have been determined and a comparison has been attempted regarding the degree of their enantiomeric resolution. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Reboxetine, (RS)-2-[(RS)-α-(2-ethoxyphenoxy)benzyl]morpholine methanesulphonate, is a racemic compound and consists of a mixture of the (R,R)- and (S,S)-enantiomers. In this study, brain and plasma levels of both enantiomers were determined in mice and rats after oral administration of reboxetine at doses (1.1 mg/kg, mouse; 20 mg/kg, rat) twice the respective ED50 values in the antireserpine test. Plasma and brain concentrations of each enantiomer were measured up to 6 h postdosing using an HPLC method with fluorimetric detection after derivatization with a chiral agent (FLEC). In mice and rats, brain and plasma levels of the (R,R)-enantiomer were always higher than those of the (S,S)-enantiomer. After normalization for dose, the mean AUC0-tz values of both the (R,R)- and (S,S)-enantiomers in mouse brain were about 23 and 32 times higher than in rat brain, respectively. In plasma, the corrected mean AUC0-tz values were about 5 (R,R) and 10 (S,S) times higher in mice than in rats. These results provide evidence for the higher bioavailability and/or lower clearance of both enantiomers in mice than in rats, and for a higher penetration of both enantiomers into mouse brain compared to rat brain. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Stereoselectivity in the hydrolysis of racemic ethyl 2-phenylacetate derivatives by cultured cells of noncancerous cell lines from rat liver (BRL, BRL 3A, Clone 9, and ARLJ301-3), spontaneously or oncogene transformed rat liver cell lines (ARLJ301-3TR1, Anr4, Anr9-1, and Anr13-1), and cancer cell lines from rat hepatoma (H4-II-E, McA-RH7777, and MH1C1) and sarcoma (XC) was studied. A strong (R)-enantiomer preference was found in the hydrolysis of ethyl 2-hydroxy- (2c) and 2-methoxy-2-phenylacetate (3c) by the noncancerous and oncogene-transformed cells and an (S)-enantiomer preference for ethyl N-acylphenylalaninates with all the present cell lines. These inclinations were, however, not recognized with ethyl 2-methoxy-2-phenylpropanoate and ethyl N-difluoroacetyl-or N-trifluoroacetylphenylalaninate. Moreover, the R preference for 3c was reversed in the reaction by hepatoma cells. Thus, the stereoselectivity is influenced by both structure of acyl group and species of cell lines. The hepatoma cells were considerably different from the noncancerous or oncogene-transformed cells in stereoselectivity. This fact was consistent with the order of colony formation in soft agar cultures (index of malignancy) and the resemblance in actively stained esterase patterns in gel electrophoresis. The stereoselective hydrolysis leads to cell-specific activation of anticancer prodrugs. This has been confirmed for the first time by the stereoselectivity of Anr4 and H4-II-E cells in the hydrolysis of a chiral mustard ester, bis(2-chloroethyl)aminophenyl 2-methoxy-2-phenylacetate (14) and by the difference of IC50 values of (R)- and (S)-14 against the two cell lines. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The haloalkane 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP), an environmental pollutant that was widely used as a soil fumigant, is a carcinogen and a mutagen and displays target-organ toxicity to the testes and the kidneys. Because little is known about effects of stereochemistry on the metabolism and toxicity of halogenated alkyl compounds and because DBCP, which has a chiral center at C-2, may show enantioselectivity in its metabolism and/or toxicities, the optically pure enantiomers of DBCP were tested in vivo in rats for organ toxicity as well as for bacterial mutagenicity. Organ toxicity studies showed that (S)-DBCP was slightly more renal toxic than (R)-DBCP but was not significantly more toxic than the racemate, and that no significant differences were observed in the extents of testicular necrosis and atrophy caused by either enantiomer or the racemate. In contrast, (R)-DBCP was more mutagenic than either (S)-DBCP or the racemate to Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) strains TA 100 and TA104. However, there was little or no enantioselectivity in glutathione S-transferase (GST)-catalyzed conjugation reactions of glutathione with DBCP based on the lack of selectivity in the rates of disappearance of the enantiomers of DBCP in the presence of glutathione (GSH) and GSTs as monitored by chiral gas chromatography (GC). © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A stereoselective HPLC assay has been developed to analyze the enantiomers of citalopram and of its three main metabolites in plasma after their separation on a Chiracel OD column. Using a fluorescence detector, the limit of quantification in plasma samples was 15, 4, 5, and 2 ng/ml for the enantiomers of citalopram (CIT), desmethylcitalopram (DCIT), didesmethylcitalopram (DDCIT), and for the citalopram propionic acid derivative (CIT-PROP), respectively. Except for CIT, all metabolites were derivatized with achiral reagents. Identification of the enantiomers was realized with an optical rotation detector which showed that the enantiomers invert their rotation depending on the polarity and nature of the solvent. Under varying conditions, a racemization study has shown that the pure enantiomers of CIT and its demethylated metabolites are configurationally stable. Preliminary results obtained with five patients treated with CIT show a mean S/R ratio of 0.7 for both CIT and its active metabolite DCIT and of 3.6 for CIT-PROP in plasma. This suggests that the pharmacologically relevant (+)-(S)-isomers of CIT and DCIT could be preferentially and steroselectively metabolized to CIT-PROP. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The enantiomers of 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol, 1,1′-binaphthyl diyl hydrogen phosphate, and 1,1′-binaphthyldicarboxylic acid are separated using capillary electrophoresis with cyclodextrins added to the running buffer. It is demonstrated that the type and concentration of cyclodextrin employed are critical for maximum enantiomeric resolution. A modified version of a previously described model of enantiomeric separations in capillary electrophoresis is shown to support the observed separation behavior. Molecular modeling is employed to calculate interaction energies between the various enantiomers and cyclodextrins. A reasonable correlation between these computationally derived interaction energies and separation behavior resulted from a statistical mechanical treatment of the molecular modeling data. The importance of hydrogen bonding in inclusion complex formation was probed and the effects of minimization and solvation in molecular modeling calculations are also discussed. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The configurational lability of enantiomers can be characterized by different terms, each defining a specific process. Racemization relates to the macroscopic and statistical process of the irreversible transformation of one of the enantiomers into the racemic mixture. Enantiomerization refers to the microscopic and molecule process of the reversible conversion of one enantiomer into the other. Methods allowing the experimental determination of rate constants of racemization (krac) and enantiomerization (kenant) are discussed, and it is shown that kenant = 1/2 krac. Neglect of this fact is a source of some confusion in the literature. When two or more elements of chirality are present in a molecule and one of them is configurationally labile, epimerization occurs, a particular case of diastereomerization. These processes of interconversion between diastereomers are kinetically more complicated than racemization and enantiomerization since the rate constants of the forward and reverse reactions are always different (kdiast/A-to-B ≠ kdiast/B-to-A), however small the difference. An important aspect of the configurational lability of stereoisomeric drugs is the time scale of the phenomenon. When interconversion occurs to a significant extent during the residence time of a drug in the body, a pharmacological time scale is implied. In contrast, the pharmaceutical time scale refers to slower rates of interconversion that affect the configurational purity of a drug during its shelf-life. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Chiral separation methods development using conventional techniques such as GC or HPLC requires a lot of experience, effort, and expense, due to the wide diversity of the optically active solutes and their possible chiral selectors. Capillary electrophoresis has received increased attention as an alternative technique for chiral separation due to its inherent high efficiencies and ease of methods development. However, due to the wide variety of chiral selectors available in CE, the benefits of this technique might be diminished without an appropriate methods development scheme. In this paper detailed examples are shown for fast, efficient, and predictable chiral capillary electrophoresis separation methods development based on a new and systematic theory. Optimized separations and their parameters are presented for several enantiomeric acids and bases. All the three possible cases, such as the use of low and high pH, as well as pH = pK buffer systems are thoroughly discussed. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Intact and fragmented cellobiohydrolase II (CBH II) were immobilized to silica and used as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for liquid chromatographic separations of enantiomers. Both acidic and basic chiral compounds could be resolved into their enantiomers on these phases. The enantioselectivities obtained on intact CBH II and its core were almost equivalent. Comparisons were also made with CBH I silica. It was found that the new materials show quite different chiral and chromatographic properties. The enzymatic activity of the CBH II in free solution was influenced by alprenolol and mexiletine, both separated on the corresponding CSP. It indicates that the sites for catalysis and for chiral recognition overlap. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: (3SR,4RS)-3,4-Epoxypiperidine-4-carboxylic acid (isoguvacine oxide) is a potent and specific GABAA receptor agonist. Isoguvacine oxide, originally designed as a potentially alkylating agonist, turned out to interact with the GABAA receptor in a fully reversible manner. The protected form of isoguvacine oxide, benzyl (3SR,4RS)-1-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-3,4-epoxypiperidine-4-carboxylate (1) (Scheme 1), has now been resolved by chiral chromatography using cellulose triacetate as a chiral stationary phase. The enantiomers of 1 (ee ≥ 98.8%) were subsequently deprotected by hydrogenolysis. Whereas both enantiomers of isoguvacine oxide were inactive as inhibitors of the binding of [3H]GABA to GABAB receptor sites (IC50 〉 100 μM), (+)-isoguvacine oxide (IC50 = 0.20 ± 0.03 μM) and (-)-isoguvacine oxide (IC50 = 0.32 ± 0.05 μM) showed comparable potencies as inhibitors of the binding of [3H]GABA to GABAA receptor sites. Furthermore, (+)-isoguvacine oxide (EC50 = 6 μM; 33% relative efficacy) and (-)-isoguvacine oxide (EC50 = 5 μM; 38% efficacy relative to 10 μM muscimol) were approximately equipotent and equiefficacious as stimulators of the binding of [3H]diazepam to the GABAA receptor-associated benzodiazepine site. This latter effect is an in vitro estimate of GABAA agonist efficacy. These pharmacological data for isoguvacine oxide and its enantiomers do not seem to support our earlier conception of the topography of the GABAA recognition site(s), derived from extensive structure - activity studies on GABAA agonists. Thus, the model of the GABAA recognition site(s) comprising a narrow cleft or pocket, in which the anionic moiety of the zwitterionic GABAA agonists is assumed to be embedded during receptor activation, may have to be revised. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The low configurational stability of two model compounds, the anorectic drug amfepramone and one of its basic metabolites, rac-cathinone, was examined for its mechanism and kinetics. Assuming a common intermediate for chiral inversion and deuteration, the rates of racemization were determined by the indirect method of proton-deuterium substitution monitored by 1H-NMR. The rate of racemization increased linearily with increasing pD. At a pD of 7.4, the rate of racemization of both aminoketones was markedly dependent on buffer concentration, indicating a mechanism of general-base catalysis. The reactions were some five to six times faster in phosphate buffers than in hydroxylamine buffers of identical molarity. Amfepramone racemized about five times faster than the primary amine cathinone. One implication of these findings is that amfepramone and cathinone may be subject in vivo to chiral inversion catalyzed by numerous endogenous bases. As a result, it will be misleading to extrapolate rates of inversion expected in plasma from those measured in buffer solutions. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: In vitro coenzyme A thioester formation from (-)-(R)-fenoprofen (FPF) and palmitic acid has been studied using liver microsomes from rat, guinea pig, sheep, and dog. In every species with both palmitic acid or (-)-(R)-fenoprofen, the Lineweaver-Burk plot was linear in the substrate concentration range used and as a consequence agrees with the involvement of only one isoenzyme (or different isoenzymes of similar Km values). The Vmax values for the thioesterification of (-)-(R)-fenoprofen present large species variations from 2.1 ± 1.0 with sheep liver microsomes to 60.6 ± 11 nmol/min/mg with dog liver microsomes. These values statistically significantly correlate (r = 0.94) to the Vmax values observed when palmitic acid was used as a substrate. Furthermore palmitic acid inhibited (-)-(R)-fenoprofen-CoA formation in the same extent in all animal species. The stereoselectivity of the thioesterification was also species dependent. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A strategy based on the use of homo bi- and multifunctional building blocks for the synthesis of a new class of network-polymeric chiral stationary phases has been evaluated. The key steps comprise acylation of N,N′-diallyl-L-tartardiamide (DATD) and reaction with a multifunctional hydrosilane, yielding a network polymer incorporating the bifunctional C2-symmetric chiral selector. Covalent bonding to a functionalized silica takes place during the latter process. Many of these chiral sorbents show interesting enantioselective properties toward a wide variety of racemic solutes under normal-phase (hexane-based) conditions. The retention is mainly caused by the hydrogen-bonding ability of the analyte, which is regulated by mobile phase additives like alcohol or ether cosolvents. The most interesting chiral stationary phases, in terms of broad enantioselectivity, were obtained from O,O′-diaryol-DATD-derivatives, particularly those containing the 3,5-dimethylbenzoyl and the 4-(tert-butyl)benzoyl moieties. Since high column efficiencies can be obtained with these chiral sorbents, an α-value of ca. 1.2 is usually sufficient to produce baseline separation. A large number of neutral as well as acidic or basic drug racemates are resolved without derivatization. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Ropivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate (ropivacaine) is a new local anaesthetic agent which is administered exclusively as the (-)-(S)-form. The aim of the study was to determine whether metabolic racemisation of (-)-(S)-ropivacaine occurs. This was tested in man, rat, dog, and sheep after different routes of administration. The enantiomers of ropivacaine and two of the major metabolites, 3-hydroxy-ropivacaine and 2′,6′-pipecoloxylidide (PPX), were determined in urine samples by liquid chromatography on a Chiral AGP column after liquid-liquid extraction. It was possible to detect 〈1% of the (+)-(R)-enantiomer of both ropivacaine and the two major metabolites. In the samples examined, no trace of metabolic racemisation was observed. In pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, toxicological, and metabolic studies, therefore, nonchiral assays are considered to be adequate. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The enantiomers of alprenolol, metoprolol, and propranolol have been separated on an enantioselective cellulase column and analysed using a fully automated HPLC system involving coupled column chromatography and fluorescence detection. The assays had sufficient selectivity and sensitivity to investigate the disposition of these β2-receptor antagonists in blood and brain extracellular fluid of rats. A cellulase column was used as the first column to separate the enantiomers giving separation factors between 2.9 and 4.3. After the separation, the enantiomers were trapped on two small precolumns by the use of a switching valve and were then introduced on an achiral C18 analytical column by eluting the small columns backward. The enantiomers in blood and brain tissue dialysates were analysed by direct injection of 8 μl samples. The limit of quantitation was 0.025-0.4 μg/ml of the different enantiomers. Plasma samples were analysed after a simple extraction procedure. The intraassay precision of the lowest quality control plasma samples (0.2-0.8 μg rac drug/ml) was 4-8% for the different enantiomers. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
