Packing material for liquid chromatography

The present invention relates to a packaging material for liquid chromatography useful for resolution of isomers, particularly for optical resolution of racemic compounds.
Heretofore, stationary phases constructed with various optically active amides have been known. A packing material for liquid chromatography wherein an optically active substance is introduced by an amide bond to a substrate prepared by grafting a silane treating reagent having a .gamma.-aminopropyl group to silica gel, is described in detail in e.g. J. Liq, Chromatogr., 9, 241 (1986) and J. Liq. Chromatogr., 9, 443 (1986). Optically active substances known to be used for a stationary phase include (L)-amino acids, optically active amines and optically active carboxylic acids. For example, (L)-valine, (L)-leucine, (L)-.alpha.-phenylglycine derivatives, (S)-(-)-.alpha.-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine derivatives or chrysanthemumic acid may be mentioned. The optically active stationary phase is prepared by the formation of an ionic bond or a covalent bond between an amino group in the .gamma.-aminopropyl group grafted to the silica gel surface and a carboxyl group of the optically active derivative. Such a stationary phase distinguishes a racemic compound usually by the interaction by a hydrogen bond between the amide bond and an amide bond or ester bond of the racemic compound and or by the .pi.-.pi. interaction and or by a delicate difference in the steric environment for separation, and as the eluent, it is usual to employ a hexane-dichloroethane system.
Conventional optically active stationary phases have not only various characteristics but also many problems. Namely, when a stationary phase is prepared by using an amino acid, the amino groups are protected by various acid anhydrides or acid halides and the remaining carboxyl groups are condensed with or ionically bonded to amino groups of the silica gel grafted with .gamma.-aminopropyl groups to form a stationary phase. Here, the asymmetric center of the optically active substance is active methylene, and the stationary phase tends to undergo racemization under various environments such as acidic, basic or thermal environments.
When an optically active amine is used for a stationary phase, a further spacer is required in order to condense it with or ionically bond it to an amino group of the .gamma.-aminopropyl group of the substrate. Namely, treatment of the optically active substance with a dicarboxylic acid is required for this purpose.
In the case of the optically active carboxylic acid, there is a difficulty that such a carboxylic acid is hardly available as a natural product.
Further, the separation or resolution of a racemic compound by high performance liquid chromatography has had a limitation such that on one type of packing material, the rage of the application to racemic compound samples has been restricted.
The present inventors have conducted extensive research to overcome the above-mentioned problems on the synthesis and to expand the range of the racemic samples to be resolved and as a result, have found that by using as the stationary phase an optically active compound shown by the formula I wherein the asymmetric center is not active methylene, it is possible to obtain a packing material for liquid chromatography which can readily be prepared and which is extremely effective for optical resolution of racemic compounds. The present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this discovery.
The present invention provides a packing material for liquid chromatography, which comprises an optically active compound having the formula: ##STR2## wherein Ar is a phenyl group, an .alpha.-naphthyl group or a .beta.-naphthyl group, R.sub.1 is an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a phenyl group or a 3,5-dinitrophenyl group, R.sub.2 is an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, * indicates an asymmetric carbon atom and n is an integer of 2 or 3, as a stationary phase.
Now, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments.
In the accompanying drawings, FIGS. 1 and 2 show chromatograms illustrating the separation of racemic samples by means of packing materials of the present invention.
The ##STR3## moiety constituting the asymmetric center of the formula I is derived from an optically active .alpha.-aromatic amine wherein the asymmetric center is not active methylene. Such an amine may be an .alpha.-phenylethylamine or an .alpha.-(1- or 2-naphthyl)ethylamine, such as (S)-(-)- or (R)-(+)-.alpha.-phenylethylamine, or (S)-(-)- or (R)-(+)-.alpha.-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine.
The R.sub.1 --CO-- moiety is derived from an acid halide such as acetyl chloride, benzyl chloride or 3,5-dinitrobenzyl chloride or from an acid anhydride such as acetic anhydride, and it forms an amide bond with the asymmetric center moiety.
The HO.sub.2 C--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --CO-- moiety is introduced for fixing to the substrate surface of the packing material, and it is derived from an acid anhydride such as succinic anhydride and has a carboxyl group.
In the formula I, R.sub.1 is preferably a methyl group, a phenyl group or a 3,5-dinitrophenyl group, and R.sub.2 are preferably a methyl group.
Now, a process for the preparation of the packing material of the present invention will be described.
The optically active compound of the formula I of the present invention may be prepared by a known method. For example, an optically active amide compound is firstly prepared by the reaction of an .alpha.-aromatic amine with an acid chloride or with an acid anhydride, and then the amide compound is reacted with an acid anhydride in methylene chloride in the presence of aluminum chloride to introduce a carboxyl group to the amide compound, whereby an optically active compound of the formula I will be obtained.
When the optically active compound of the present invention is used as a stationary phase of a packing material, the substrate may be a porous carrier such as silica gel, glass beads or diatomaceous earth, which may be spherical or in the form of pulverized particles. Preferably, the carrier is spherical particles having a particle size of from 0.1 to 1,000 .mu.m, more preferably from 1 to 100 .mu.m and a pore size of from 10 to 1,000 .ANG., more preferably from 50 to 500 .ANG..
As a method for fixing the optically active compound to the substrate carrier, there may be mentioned a method of adsorbing it to the substrate carrier, a method of fixing it by an ionic bond and a method of fixing it by an amide bond. When the conditions for liquid chromatography are taken into consideration, it is preferred to fix it by the amide bond or the ionic bond. For the formation of the amide bond or the ionic bond, an amino group-containing organosilane such as .gamma.-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane or .gamma.-aminopropyltriethoxysilane is reacted with the substrate carrier in a solvent in accordance with a conventional method to introduce amino groups to the surface of the substrate carrier. The amount of the amino groups introduced is preferably up to 2.0 meq/g dry carrier. To the amino group-containing carrier thus obtained, the optically active compound of the present invention is reacted in the presence of a condensation reagent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to fix the compound on the carrier by an amide bond. Otherwise, the compound may be fixed by an ionic bond without adding the condensation reagent. Both bonds may also be present.
When the separation factor and the number of theoretical plates as a packing material for liquid chromatography are taken into consideration, the amount of the optically active compound introduced is preferably from 0.1 to 1.0 meq/g dry carrier. If the amount of introduction is too small, the object of the present invention can not be accomplished. On the other hand, if the amount is excessive, the properties as the packing material tend to deteriorate for some reasons, whereby adequate separation factor or number of theoretical plates can hardly be obtained.
So long as the amount of the optically active compound introduced is within the above-mentioned range, an ionic bond is also formed by a usual amidation reaction for fixation, and it is effective for the improvement of the number of theoretical plates to remove the portion fixed by the ionic bond by treating with an acidic aqueous solution/containing methanol or the like.
Further, amino groups remaining on the surface of the carrier to which the optically active compound has been fixed, are likely to adversely affect the separation due to e.g. adsorption depending upon the type of the racemic sample, particularly in the case of an acidic racemic sample. In such a case, the remaining amino groups may be modified and protected, for example, by acetylation. In the packing material thus obtained, the fixation is made by a covalent bond, and various eluents ranging from an aqueous system to an organic solvent system such as hexane may suitably be selected, whereby the range of the racemic samples to be separated will accordingly be widened.
The packing method of the packing material of the present invention into a column can be conducted by a known usual method.
Now, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to Examples. However, it should be understood that the present invention is by no means restricted to such specific Examples.

As described in the foregoing, the packing material of the present invention wherein an optically active compound is used as the stationary phase, has a merit in that by the selection of an optically active aromatic amine wherein the asymmetric center is not active methylene, the range of its application can be widened to samples which used to be hardly separable by the conventional method for the separation of a racemic modification sample by an optically active compound. Further, its preparation is quite simple. Thus, it is an excellent packing material.
