Two analytical methodologies based on the combined use of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and two different amino acid-based chiral ionic liquids (tetrabutylammonium-L-lysine or tetrabutylammonium-L-glutamic acid) in electrokinetic chromatography were developed in this work to perform the enantioselective determination of econazole and sulconazole in pharmaceutical formulations. The influence of different experimental variables such as buffer concentration, applied voltage, nature and concentration of the ionic liquid, temperature and injection time, on the enantiomeric separation was investigated. The combination of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and tetrabutylammonium-L-lysine under the optimized conditions enabled to achieve the enantiomeric determination of both drugs with high enantiomeric resolution (3.5 for econazole and 2.4 for sulconazole). The analytical characteristics of the developed methodologies were evaluated in terms of linearity, precision, LOD, LOQ and recovery showing good performance for the determination of both drugs which were successfully quantitated in pharmaceutical formulations. This work reports the first analytical methodology enabling the enantiomeric determination of sulconazole in pharmaceutical formulations.

Chiral allyl amines are important structural components in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and chiral catalysts. Herein, we report a cobalt-catalyzed enantioselective reductive coupling of imines with internal alkynes to synthesize chiral allyl amines. The reaction is catalyzed by a cobalt complex derived from commercially available bisphosphine ligand utilizing zinc as the electron donor.

Article Synopsis
  • A new method for C-H functionalization of heteroaryl compounds is introduced, which involves a process called dearomative addition followed by hydrogen autotransfer.
  • This process starts with the hydroruthenation of dienes to create allylruthenium nucleophiles, leading to branched C-C coupling products through addition and β-hydride elimination.
  • The study also details the formation of enantiomerically enriched heteroarylethyl alcohols and amines through oxidative cleavage and dynamic kinetic asymmetric reduction, supported by density functional theory calculations linking regioselectivities to molecular factors.

Enantiomeric analysis of chiral drugs is very significant, as their enantiomers display different pharmacological or toxicological behavior towards living systems. Among these drugs, β-blockers are available as racemates, where their enantiomers display different pharmacological effects. Herein, we report enantioselective separation of two β-blockers, namely, atenolol and sotalol, using a derivatization approach.

Chemodivergent, enantio- and regioselective couplings of alkynes, aldehydes and silanes enabled by nickel/N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis.

Divergent synthesis of valuable molecules through common starting materials and metal catalysis represents a longstanding challenge and a significant research goal. We here describe chemodivergent, highly enantio- and regioselective nickel-catalyzed reductive and dehydrogenative coupling reactions of alkynes, aldehydes, and silanes. A single chiral Ni-based catalyst is leveraged to directly prepare three distinct enantioenriched products (silyl-protected trisubstituted chiral allylic alcohols, oxasilacyclopentenes, and silicon-stereogenic oxasilacyclopentenes) in a single chemical operation.

How does dopamine convert into norepinephrine? Insights on the key step of the reaction.

Context: Dopamine -monooxygenase (D M) is an essential enzyme in the organism that regioselectively converts dopamine into R-norepinephrine, the key step of the reaction, studied in this paper, is a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) from dopamine to a superoxo complex on D M, forming a hydroperoxo intermediate and dopamine radical. It was found that the formation of a hydrogen bond between dopamine and the D M catalyst strengthens the substrate-enzyme interaction and facilitates the HAT which takes place selectively to give the desired enantiomeric form of the product. Six reactions leading to the hydroperoxo intermediate were analyzed in detail using theoretical and computational tools in order to identify the most probable reaction mechanism.
