We present a method for the enantioselective analysis of propafenone in human plasma for application in clinical pharmacokinetic studies. Propafenone enantiomers were resolved on a 10-microm Chiralcel OD-R column (250 x 4.6 mm I.D.) after solid-phase extraction using disposable solid-phase extraction tubes (RP-18). The mobile phase used for the resolution of propafenone enantiomers and the internal standard propranolol was 0.25 M sodium perchlorate (pH 4.0)-acetonitrile (60:40, v/v), at a flow-rate of 0.7 ml/min. The method showed a mean recovery of 99.9% for (S)-propafenone and 100.5% for (R)-propafenone, and the coefficients of variation obtained in the precision and accuracy study were below 10%. The proposed method presented quantitation limits of 25 ng/ml and was linear up to a concentration of 5000 ng/ml of each enantiomer.

Benzo-fused γ-lactams are fundamental in medicinal chemistry, acting as essential elements for various therapeutic agents due to their structural adaptability and capability to enhance biological activity. In their synthesis, transition metals play a pivotal role as catalysts, offering more efficient alternatives to traditional methods by facilitating C-N bond formation through mechanisms like intramolecular coupling. Recent advances have especially spotlighted transition-metal-catalyzed C-H amination reactions for directly converting C(sp)-H to C(sp)-N bonds, streamlining the creation of these compounds.

A deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying transition metal-catalyzed transformation is crucial for developing innovative strategies to synthesize chiral organoselenium compounds. In this study, we developed and investigated a three-layer chirality relay model for the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroselenation of alkenes through density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In the back layer of this model, the four bulky substituents on the phosphorus atom of the bidentate chiral MeO-BIPHEP ligand were positioned on axial and equatorial bonds, thereby influencing the configuration of the middle layer.

Members of the genus are well known for their medicinal properties, which can be attributed to their essential oils. In this work, we have examined the leaf essential oils of five understudied species collected from various locations in western North America. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatographic methods, including enantioselective gas chromatography.

In organic synthesis, the solvent is the chemical compound that represents the largest proportion of the process. However, conventional solvents are often toxic and dangerous for the environment, and an interesting alternative is to replace them by water. In this context, catalyst surfactants allow both organic reagents in water to be solubilized and organic reactions to be catalyzed.

Chiral synthesis of single chiral drugs offers high efficiency, controllable costs, and excellent enantioselectivity, making it crucial in the pharmaceutical industry. A significant number of studies on chiral drug synthesis primarily focuses on the design and synthesis of innovative chiral catalysts and ligands with extremely high selectivity, as well as the development of new methods and strategies. Nonetheless, the on-line monitoring of chiral drug synthesis and its underlying mechanisms remain obscure.
