`380 J. HERMANSSON EXPERIMENTAL Apparatus The liquid chromatographic system consisted of a Waters Model 6000 A pump, a Waters U6K injector and a Shimadzu SPD-2A variable-wavelengh W detector operated at 215 nm. An ctl-AGP silica column (30 x 3.0 mm I.D. or 100 x 3.0 mm I.D., containing 147 mg of al-AGP per gram of solid phase) with a mean particle diameter of 10 m was usedz. This column is now available as EnantioPace from LKB Produkter AB (Bromma, Sweden). Chemicals Racemic alprenol hydrochloride, metoprolol tartrate, oxprenolol hydrochlo- ride, propranolol hydrochloride, practolol and pindolol were obtained from drug manufacturers. Mandelic acid methyl ester, mandelic acid ethyl ester and mandelic acid were purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, U.S.A.). Trans AJ 1266 was kindly supplied by Professor J. L. G. Nilsson (Apoteksbolaget AB, Central Laboratory, Solna, Sweden). The chemical structures are shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Analytical grade 2-propranol was obtained from E. Merck (Darmstadt, F.R.G.). Phosgene (20% in toluene) was purchased from Fluka (Buchs, Switzerland).

`. ’ ENANTIOMERIC RESOLUTION OF B-BLOCKERS 381 Preparation of oxazolidone of j&receptor blocking agents Racemic oxazolidone derivatives of the @eceptor blocking agents were formed by reaction with phosgene 7.8. About 1 mg of the “B-blocker” was added to a screw-cap conical test-tube. The substance was dissolved in 0.5 ml of diethyl ether and 0.05 ml of 0.5 M sodium hydroxide, and the mixture was shaken for 1 min before the addition of 50 ~1 of phosgene solution. The mixture was agitated at room tem- perature in a rotating extraction apparatus. After 1 h of reaction time the tubewas centrifuged at 500 g, and the organic phase was transferred to a new tube and evap orated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in the mobile phase. A reaction scheme is shown in Fig. 2. Acetylation of trans AJ 126 Trans AJ 126 hydrochloride (1 mg) was treated with base and extracted into diethyl ether. The diethyl ether layer was transferred to a new tube and evaporated to dryness under nitrogen. The residue was dissolved in 200 fi of methylene chloride and 50 ,~l of triethylamine. Acetic acid anhydride (250 pl) was added, and after 15 min of reaction time at WC the solution was evaporated to dryness under a stream of nitrogen. The residue was dissolved in the mobile phase, RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Many racer& drugs have been resolved using an q-acid glycoprotein column (aI-AGP column)1-3. However, it is impossible to design a chiral phase that resolves all classes of compounds with high separation factors. Therefore, it is interesting to investigate the possibilities of increasing the separation factors, of compounds giving low enantioselectivity, by the preparation of simple enantiomeric derivatives.

`Capacity factor of the first eluted enantiomer. Separation of non-proteolytic enantiomeric derivatives Phosgene derivatives. Recently, Wainer et al.’ reported the resolution of the enantiomers of the aminoalcohol norephedrine as its 2-oxazolidone derivative. They also demonstrated that oxaxolidone formation proceeds without racemization. The enantiomers of #I-receptor blocking agents have also been separated as oxazolidones by gas chromatography*. Wainer et al. resolved the enantiomers of propranolol as the 2-oxazolidone derivatives on a chiral HPLC cohmmg. They obtained a separation factor of 1.09. The present study reports the separation of the enantiomers of /I-receptor blocking agents as the enantiomeric 2-oxazolidone derivatives, using a 30-mm long aI-AGP column and a mixture of phosphate buffer (pH 7; p = 0.02) and 2-propanol as the mobile phase. Typical chromatograms are shown in Fig. 3A and B, where the enantiomers of propranolol and pindolol are separated. (R)-Propranolol is eluted with a lower capacity factor than the @)-form, therefore it is reasonable to assume that this is valid for the other /I-blockers tested. However, a reversal of the elution I

`. * ENANTIOMERIC RESOLUTION OF b-BLOCKERS 383 order of enantiomers has been observed in a series of closely related compoundslo. Table I summarizes the chromatographic data obtained using 10% (v/v) Zpropanol in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) as the mobile phase. The chiral carbon of the j&receptor blocking agents is located in the propan- olamine side-chain, which is the same in all the compounds studied. This means that these parts of the molecules are also identical after the formation of oxazolidones, and it is only the aromatic parts of the molecules that differ. From the data presented in Table I it can be seen that the aromatic part of the structure has a marked influence on the separation factor and the retention. Pro- pranolol, with an unsubstituted naphthalene ring, gives a separation factor of 5.71, whereas metoprolol, with a p-methoxyethyl-substituted benzene ring as the aromatic part, gives no resolution of the enantiomers and very low retention. However, a decrease of the 2-propanol concentration in the mobile phase markedly increases both the retention and the separation factor. A separation factor of 1.95 was obtained for the metoprolol enantiomers with a mobile phase of phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) with no addition of alcohol (Fig. 4). Alprenolol and oxprenolol, which contain a benzene ring substituted in the o&o-position, give separation factors of the same magnitude (Table I). However oxprenolol, which is more hydrophilic than alprenolol, gives capacity factors that are more than three times higher on the al-AGP column. The opposite retention order was obtained using a normal reversed-phase column (Li- Chrosorb RP-8)“. A reasonable explanation of the higher retention of oxprenolol on the al-AGP column may be that the oxygen in the allyloxy group interacts spe- cifically with the chiral phase. Ester and acetyl derivatives. Preparation of ester derivatives of acids and acetyl derivatives of amines can be an effective way of increasing the separation factors of acids and amines, respectively. This can be illustrated by the following examples: the enantiomers of mandelic acid have been separated as ester derivatives, and the en- antiomers of trans AJ 126, a primary amine (structure see Fig. l), have been separated after acetylation. The resolution of the acetylated trans AJ 126 enantiomers is shown in Fig. 5; a separation factor of 4.95 was obtained, and the peaks had capacity factors of 0.88 and 4.33. The mandelic acid enantiomers were not resolved on an al-AGP column. How- ever, the enantiomers can be separated as methyl and ethyl esters. The chromato- graphic data are summarized in Table II, and a chromatogram of the separation of TABLE II CHROMATOGRAPHIC DATA FOR MANDELIC ACID AND ITS ESTERS Conditions: column, 100 x 3.0 mm I.D., 147 mg of ai-AGP per gram of solid phase; mobile phase, phosphate buffer (pH 7.0; p = 0.02) with the addition of 2% 2-propanol.
