A simple and accurate method for the separation and determination of ofloxacin enantiomers was developed by ionic liquid-assisted ligand-exchange high performance liquid chromatography. Both achiral and chiral ionic liquids were tested for their efficiency of ofloxacin enantiomeric separation. The effects of ligands, concentration of metal ion, organic modifier, pH of the mobile phase, and temperature were also investigated and evaluated. Optimal conditions were obtained on a conventional C(18) column, where the mobile phase consisted of methanol/water (20 : 80, v/v) (containing 4.0 mmol L(-1) amino acid ionic liquid and 3.0 mmol L(-1) copper sulfate) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL min(-1). Under this condition, the ofloxacin enantiomers could be baseline separated within 14 minutes; the proposed method was used to analyze different commercial ofloxacin medicines.

Article Synopsis
  • - Ofloxacin (OFL) and levofloxacin (LEV) are fluoroquinolone antibiotics effective against a wide range of bacteria by inhibiting DNA replication through binding to DNA gyrase.
  • - The study investigated how these antibiotics interact with calf thymus DNA using UV spectrophotometry and spectrofluorimetry, confirming their binding to DNA with specific binding constants.
  • - Thermodynamic properties, including Gibbs free energy, entropy, and enthalpy, were calculated to assess the spontaneity of the interactions, with results showing that both LEV-DNA and OFL-DNA interactions are spontaneous.

The synthesis of optically active compounds requires determination of ee, er, and enantiomeric purity. The aim of the present paper is to review the synthesis of several chiral derivatizing reagents (CDRs) in a rational manner, which were successful for the separation and isolation of enantiomers of a variety of active pharmaceutical ingredients and other important and useful racemates. Besides, the application of (i) certain enantiomerically pure amines, either directly or by incorporating each of them as chiral auxiliary in difluorodinitrobenzene or cyanuric chloride moieties to construct the CDR, (ii) (S)-ketoprofen and (S)-levofloxacin as chiral platforms, and (iii) a few isothiocyanates, have been suitably included.

A capillary electrochromatography (CEC) synergistic enantioseparation system based on a novel nanomaterial synthesized by chiral molecularly imprinted polymers (CMIPs) and chiral metal organic frameworks (CMOFs) was developed. Compared with CMIPs and CMOFs alone, the enantioseparation performance of ofloxacin (OFL) of the CEC with the novel nanomaterial as stationary phases was greatly improved. CMOFs with chiral recognition ability have synergize with CMIPs to greatly improve the chiral selectivity of the novel stationary phases in CEC.

The key to developing sensors for chiral drug determination is to exclude interference from enantiomers. In this study, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) were introduced to prepare a chiral sensor for levofloxacin detection. The MIP was electropolymerised on the surface of the Cu/Fe-benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate MOF (Cu/Fe-BTC)-modified Au electrode using levofloxacin as a template molecule.
