Case of enantiomer impurity identification by normal-phase chiral high-performance liquid chromatography with optical rotation and mass spectrometric detection

An impurity produced in the synthesis of compound I is separated and identified as its enantiomer II using normal-phase chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV absorbance, optical rotation (OR) and mass spectrometric (MS) detection. The results show that the impurity II and comp...

Zusammenfassung:An impurity produced in the synthesis of compound I is separated and identified as its enantiomer II using normal-phase chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV absorbance, optical rotation (OR) and mass spectrometric (MS) detection. The results show that the impurity II and compound I have equal and opposite specific rotations, identical MS spectra and the same MS–MS fragmentation pattern, as required for enantiomers. The procedures presented demonstrate a novel combination of methods for enantiomer identification and characterization that do not require the preparation of individual enantiomer markers or even the racemic mixture, thus reducing the need for additional synthetic work.
