Enantiomeric separation of nefopam and cathinone derivatives using a supramolecular deep eutectic solvent as a chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis.

The present study investigates the utilization of a supramolecular deep eutectic solvent (SUPRADES), consisting of sulfated-β-cyclodextrin (S-β-CD) and citric acid (CA), as a chiral selector (CS) in capillary electrophoresis for the enantiomeric separation of nefopam (NEF) and five cathinone derivatives (3-methylmethcathinone [3-MMC], 4-methylmethcathinone [4-MMC], 3,4-dimethylmethcathinone [3,4-DMMC], 4-methylethcathinone [4-MEC], and 3,4-methylendioxycathinone [MDMC]). A significant improvement in enantiomeric separation of the target analytes was observed upon the addition of S-β-CD-CA to the background electrolyte (BGE), leading to a baseline separation of all analytes. In particular, the optimum percentage of S-β-CD-CA, added to the BGE, was determined to be 0.

The Utilization of an Aloe Vera Rind By-Product: Deep Eutectic Solvents as Eco-Friendly and Recyclable Extraction Media of Polyphenolic Compounds.

In this study, an optimized environmentally friendly procedure was employed to enhance the sustainable utilization of phenolic antioxidants derived from aloe vera rind by-products. The procedure involved the application of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) in combination with deep eutectic solvents (DESs). Eleven different DESs and three conventional solvents were employed as extraction media for polyphenolic compounds.

Novel supramolecular deep eutectic solvent (SUPRADES) as a sole chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis for the enantiomeric separation of fluorine-substituted amphetamine analogs.

In this study, a novel supramolecular deep eutectic solvent consisting of sulfated-β-CD and citric acid (S-β-CD-CA) is reported for the first time. This innovative system was evaluated as a sole chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis for the enantioseparation of six fluorine-substituted amphetamine analogs, yielding remarkable outcomes. Baseline separations of all amphetamine analogs under study were achieved in less than 21.

Stereoselective separation of psychoactive substances: Multivariate optimization and validation of a capillary electrophoresis method using carboxymethyl-β-CD/deep eutectic solvent dual system.

A comprehensive study was performed to determine an optimum enantioseparation method for fluorine-substituted amphetamine and cathinone derivatives (fluor-amphetamine and fluor-cathinone derivatives), using a binary system consisting of carboxymethyl-β-CD (CM-β-CD) and a deep eutectic solvent (DES), namely choline chloride-ethylene glycol (ChCl-EG). Under this framework, the optimization and modeling of the separation conditions in a binary system were performed with the objective of maximizing resolution and minimizing analysis time. This was achieved through the application of response surface methodology.

The potential of the use of deep eutectic solvents and amino acid-based ionic liquids to enhance the chiral discrimination ability of different chiral selectors in capillary electrophoresis.

The effect of the combined use of amino acid-based ionic liquids (AAILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) with either cyclodextrin- (CD) or cyclofructan- (CF) based chiral selectors for the chiral separation of amphetamine derivatives was investigated in the present study. A non-significant improvement in enantiomeric separation of target analytes was observed when AAILs were combined with either CF or CD. On the other side, a markedly improved chiral separation of enantiomers was obtained using the dual carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin/DES system, highlighting the existence of a synergistic effect.

Evaluation of cyclodextrin- and cyclofructan-based chiral selectors for the enantioseparation of psychoactive substances in capillary electrophoresis.

During this study, a simple and easy-to-prepare electrophoretic method was developed for the enantioseparation of amphetamine and cathinone derivatives. Different types of β-cyclodextrin and cyclofructan-based chiral selectors (CSs), both native and derivatized, were utilized, and the most effective ones, in terms of resolution and analysis time, were identified. In addition, several electrophoretic parameters, such as background electrolyte concentration and pH, and CS concentration, were examined to optimize the separation conditions.
