The enantiomers of 1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline have been directly separated on polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases (CSPs). The normal phase separation of (S)-and (R)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline was accomplished by screening of the immobilized Chiralpak IC column with different eluents. The effect of mobile phase type on retention, selectivity and resolution was studied. 2-Propanol or ethanol/n-hexane/ ethanolamine mixtures were applied as mobile phases by screening of following polysaccharide-based immobilized (Chiralpak IA, Chiralpak IC) and coated (Lux Cellulose-1, Lux Cellulose-2, Lux Amylose-2) CSPs. Polar organic and reversed-phase conditions were also tested for direct enantioseparation of 1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline.
The chromatographic behavior of tegafur and its impurities on a naphthalene Cosmosil piNAP column under reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography conditions was examined. A good description of the retention was achieved through the application of statistical weights to the widely used quadratic relationships between the logarithm of the retention factor (log k) and the organic solvent concentration in the mobile phase. Optimum conditions for isocratic separation of the compounds were found with acetonitrile concentration of 10-30% in the mobile phase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
