β-propiolactone is a common inactivator agent used in vaccines. Due to β-propiolactone carcinogenicity, complete hydrolysis of it is necessary to prevent cytotoxicity in mammalian cells. As a result, more attention should be paid to it at the clinic, and it is important to measure its trace amounts.

Article Synopsis
  • * A new High-Performance Liquid Chromatography-Ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) method was developed using Rhodamine B hydrazide (RBH) as a derivatizing agent, optimized in weak acidic conditions, and successfully separated on a C8 column.
  • * The method showed high linearity (r2 > 0.99), low detection limits (0.17 µg/mL), and was applied to analyze BPL residues in inactivated COVID-19 vaccines, promising for quality control and regulatory

β-Propiolactone (BPL) is an organic compound widely used as an inactivating agent in vaccine development and production, for example for SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza viruses. Inactivation of pathogens by BPL is based on an irreversible alkylation of nucleic acids but also on acetylation and cross-linking between proteins, DNA or RNA. However, the protocols for BPL inactivation of viruses vary widely.

Department of Chemistry, 207 Pleasant Street, SE, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455, United States.

We report here the synthesis of poly(4-ketovalerolactone) () via ring-opening transesterification polymerization (ROTEP) of the monomer 4-ketovalerolactone (, two steps from levulinic acid). The polymerization of proceeds to high equilibrium monomer conversion (up to 96% in the melt) to give the semicrystalline polyketoester with low dispersity. displays glass transition temperatures of 7 °C and two melting temperatures at 132 and 148 °C.
