Development and validation of a nonaqueous capillary electrophoretic method for the enantiomeric purity determination of a synthetic intermediate of new 3,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H-1-benzopyrans using a single-isomer anionic cyclodextrin derivative and an ionic liquid

摘要

The enantiomeric purity determination of a synthetic intermediate of new 3,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H- -benzopyrans, i.e. 4-amino-2,2-dimethyl-6-ethoxycarbonylamino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran, was successfully carried out using an anionic cyclodextrin (CD) derivative combined with a chiral ionic liquid (IL). In order to obtain high resolution and efficiency values, the addition of a chiral IL, i.e. ethylcholine bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (EtChol NTf_2), to the background electrolyte containing heptakis(2,3-di-O-methyl-6-O-sulfo)-β-CD (HDMS-β-CD) was found to be essential. A simultaneous increase in separation selectivity and enantioresolution seems to indicate a synergistic effect of HDMS-β-CD and EtChol NTf_2. The best enantioseparation of the key intermediate was achieved using a methanolic solution of 0.75M formic acid, 10mM ammonium formate, 1.5mM HDMS-β-CD and 5mM EtChol NTf_2. Levamisole was selected as internal standard. The optimized conditions allowed the determination of 0.1% of each enantiomer in the presence of its stereoisomer using the method of standard additions. The NACE method was then fully validated with respect to selectivity, response function, trueness, precision, accuracy, linearity and limits of detection and quantification.
