title: Chiral capillary electrophoretic determination of the enantiomeric purity of tetrahydronaphthalenic derivatives, melatoninergic ligands, using highly sulfated beta-cyclodextrins.
abstract: Using cyclodextrin capillary zone electrophoresis (CD-CZE), baseline separation of synthetic tetrahydronaphthalenic derivatives, potential melatoninergic compounds, was achieved. A method for the enantioresolution of these tetralins and determination of their enantiomeric purity was developed using anionic CDs (highly sulfated-CD or highly S-CD) as chiral selectors and capillaries dynamically coated with polyethylene oxide (PEO). Operational parameters such as the nature and concentration of the chiral selectors, buffer pH, organic modifiers, temperature and applied voltage were investigated. The use of charged CDs provides a driving force for our neutral compounds in the running buffer and enantiomeric resolution by inclusion of compounds in the CD cavity. The highly S-beta-CD was found to be the most effective complexing agent, allowing good enantiomeric resolution. The complete resolution of three tetralin compounds was obtained using 25 mM phosphate buffer at pH 2.5 containing 2.5% w/v of highly S-beta-CD at 25 degrees C with an applied field of 0.25 kV/cm. The apparent association constants of the inclusion complexes were calculated. This optimized method was validated in terms of linearity, sensitivity, accuracy and recovery. The enantiomeric purity for the three molecules was determined and the detection limit of enantiomer impurities is about 0.3-0.6%.
