Photochemically cross-linked polysaccharide derivatives as supports for the chromatographic separation of enantiomers

This is a 371 of International Application PCT/EP 96/00773, filed Feb. 24, 1996.
The invention relates to substantially photochemically cross-linked polysaccharide derivatives that are used as supports in the chromatographic separation of enantiomers.
DE-A-2 422 365 describes polymers that are suitable for photopolymerisation, having anhydride-containing groups, that are converted by means of mechanically active light into resistant substances that are suitable as protective printing compositions or also for the manufacture of protective printing screens for printing plates.
N. R. Bertoniere et al. describe in J. Appl. Polymer Sci., Vol. 15, (1971) 1743 woven cotton fabrics having as substituents cinnamic acid esters (cinnamoyl radicals) which when irradiated with light of a specific wavelength (2573 .ANG.) first isomerise and then dimerise to truxillic and truxinic acid derivatives, the photochemical reaction taking place mainly on the surface of the fabric.
The two U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,682,481 and 2,682,482 describe methods by which soluble carbohydrates, especially cellulose derivatives, that carry unsaturated functional groups are converted by heating with peroxide catalysts and dimerisation or further cross-linking into shaped articles having an insoluble surface.
E. Yashima et al. describe in J. Chromatography A, 677(1994), 11-19 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamates of cellulose and amylose that are bonded at specifically selected sites to silica gel and are used as a chiral stationary phase for HPL chromatography (high-pressure liquid chromatography). The 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamates of cellulose and amylose are bonded to the 3-aminopropyl silica gel via 4,4'-diphenylmethane isocyanate as intermediate members. Since those chemically bonded phases are not damaged by polar solvents, such as CHCl.sub.3 (chloroform), a small amount of CHCl.sub.3 can be added to the eluant for effective separation of racemates and of enantiomers.
Y. Okamoto et al. describe in J. Liquid Chromatography 10, 1613-1698 (1987), cellulose-tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamates) and -tris(3,5-dichlorophenylcarbamates) that are chemically bonded to 3-aminopropyl silica gel via 4,4'-diphenylmethane isocyanate.
As the first process step for the preparation, first the cellulose is bonded via the diisocyanate to the 3-aminopropyl silica gel. The reaction product is then treated with a large excess of 3,5-dimethylphenyl isocyanate or 3,5-dichlorophenyl isocyanate to produce the corresponding carbamates of cellulose.
The optical separating power of the chiral stationary phase is compared to that obtained by coating silica gel with cellulose triphenyl carbamates, it being possible to vary the chiral separating capacity of the stationary phase by heat treatment.
In a poster exhibited at the 5th Intern. Symposium "On Chiral Discrimination" in Stockholm in October, 1994, L. Oliveros et al. describe stationary phases consisting of 3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate cellulose that have been immobilised on a support. It is not clear from the data given on the poster whether the chiral material has been immobilised and has any particular advantages over known materials from the prior art.

R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently lower alkyl or unsubstituted or substituted aryl,
X is a direct bond or phenylene,

R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently methyl or ethyl or an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl and
X is a direct bond or phenylene,
mis 0 or 1, and
n is 0 or an integer from 1 to 12.
Of very special importance are photochemically cross-linked polysaccharide derivatives of the general formulae IA and IB, wherein
R is a cellulose radical in which the OH groups have been esterified as OR' groups or converted into a carbamate (urethane),
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are methyl and
X is a direct bond or phenylene,
m is 0 or 1 and
n is 0 or an integer from 1 to 12.
The invention relates to the compounds of formulae 1A and 1B characterised in the Examples.
Hereinbefore and hereinafter, lower radicals and compounds are to be understood, for example, as those having up to and including 7, preferably up to and including 4, carbon atoms (C atoms).
Polysaccharides are, for example, cellulose, amylose, chitosan, dextran, xylan and inulin, which are obtainable as polysaccharides in a high degree of purity. Preference is given to polysaccharides having a degree of polymerisation (number of pyranose and furanose rings) of at least 5, and especially at least 10, but 1000 should not be exceeded in order to ensure ease of handling.
Lower alkyl is, for example, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl, which may also be substituted by halogen, such as fluorine or chlorine, such as trifluoromethyl or trichloromethyl.
Aryl as such is, for example, phenyl or naphthyl, such as 1- or 2-naphthyl, or substituted phenyl or naphthyl, such as phenyl or naphthyl substituted by lower alkyl, halo-lower alkyl, hydroxy, lower alkoxy, lower alkanoyloxy, halogen, cyano and/or by nitro.
Aryl is preferably phenyl that is unsubstituted or substituted as indicated above, and is especially phenyl.
Lower alkoxy is, for example, n-propoxy, isopropoxy, n-butoxy or tert-butoxy, preferably ethoxy and especially methoxy.
Lower alkanoyloxy is, for example, propionyloxy or pivaloyloxy, preferably acetyloxy.
Halogen is, for example, chlorine or fluorine, also bromine or iodine.
Halo-lower alkyl is, for example, 2- or 3-halo-lower alkyl, such as 2-halo-lower alkyl, such as 2-halopropyl, 3-halopropyl or 3-halo-2-methyl-propyl.
The compounds of the general formulae IA and IB are prepared by cross-linking compounds of the general formula II ##STR3## wherein R is a polysaccharide radical in which the OH groups have been esterified as OR' groups or converted into a carbamate (urethane), and
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, n and m are as defined for formulae IA and IB, after previously applying them as a coating to a support or, after previously conditioning them, in the form of the pure material using an emulsion, by (hv) irradiation to form compounds of the general formulae IA and IB.
The cross-linking is effected by irradition using a submersible mercury lamp. Suitable suspension agents are, for example, inert solvents, for example hydrocarbons, such as hexane or lower alkanols, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol or isopropanol or aqueous mixtures thereof, or ethereal solvents, such as, for example, diethyl ether.
There may be used as support silicon dioxides, such as silica gel, especially aminosilanised silica gel, also aluminium oxide (alumina), graphite and zirconium oxide (zirconia).
Polysaccharide compounds of the general formula II wherein
R is a polysaccharide radical in which the OH groups have been esterified as OR' groups or converted into a carbamate (urethane), and
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, X, m and n are as defined for formulae IA and IB are novel and form part of the invention and can be prepared by methods known per se.
Of special importance are compounds of the general formula II wherein
R is a cellulose or amylose radical in which the OH groups have been esterified as OR' groups or converted into a carbamate, and
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently methyl or unsubstituted or substituted phenyl and
X, m and n are as defined for formulae IA and IB.
Of very special importance are compounds of the general formula II wherein
R is a cellulose radical in which the OH groups have been esterified as OR' groups or converted into a carbamate, and
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are methyl and
X, m and n are as defined for formulae IA and IB.
Compounds of the general formula II are prepared as follows: in compounds of the general formula III ##STR4## wherein R.sub.3 is a polysaccharide radical having free OH groups, and
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, X, m and n are as defined for formulae IA and IB,
the free OH groups are esterified as OR' groups or converted into a carbamate (urethane).
The esterification and the preparation of the carbamate are effected in a manner known per se by reaction with an isocyanate or a reactive functional carboxylic acid derivative.
For example, the esterification can be effected with unsubstituted or substituted benzoyl halides, especially benzoyl chlorides, the corresponding carboxylic acid anhydrides or also with a mixture of the corresponding carboxylic acid and a suitable dehydrating agent.
There can be used for the esterification any inert solvent that does not impede the esterification. Preference is given to the use of pyridine or also quinoline, a catalyst, for example a tertiary amine, such as 4-(N,N-dimethylarnino)pyridine, generally also being added.
The preparation of the carbamate is customarily effected by reaction with a suitable isocyanate in the presence of a suitable catalyst. There may be used as catalyst Lewis bases, such as tertiary amines, or also Lewis acids, such as a tin compound. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a tertiary base, such as in the presence of pyridine or quinoline, which at the same time serve also as solvents, although there is also preferably used as tertiary base 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine, as a reaction accelerator.
For the conversion of the OH groups into the corresponding OR' groups by esterification or the preparation of the carbamate there are used, especially, unsubstituted or substituted benzoyl chlorides or phenyl isocyanates. Preference is given to the use of chloro- or methyl-substituted, especially mono- or di-substituted chloro- and/or methyl-substituted, phenyl isocyanates or benzoyl chlorides, and the methyl groups can be in meta- or ortho-position relative to one another.
Compounds of the general formula III are novel and the invention relates also thereto.
Of special importance are polysaccharide compounds of the general formula III wherein
R.sub.3 is a cellulose or amylose radical having free OH groups and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently methyl or unsubstituted or substituted phenyl, and X, m and n are as defined for formulae IA and IB.
Of very special importance are polysaccharide compounds of the general formula III wherein R.sub.3 is a cellulose or amylose radical having free OH groups and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are methyl, and X, m and n are as defined for formulae IA and IB.
Compounds of the general formula III are obtained by converting into a carbamate or esterifying polysaccharides having free OH groups with an imidylcarboxylic acid halide or isocyanate of formula IV ##STR5## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, n and X are as defined for formulae IA and IB and Z is an isocyanate group (-N.dbd.C.dbd.O) or a carboxylic acid halide group, especially a carboxylic acid chloride group, where appropriate in the presence of a catalyst. The reactions are carried out as described hereinbefore.
For example, the reaction with an acid chloride is carried out in the presence of a basic condensation agent, for example with a tertiary organic base, such as a tri-lower alkylamine, such as triethylamine, or an organic nitrogen base, such as pyridine or quinoline, especially dimethylaminopyridine, in a temperature range of from 10 to 130.degree. C., preferably in a temperature range of from 20 to 90.degree. C.
The reaction with an imidyl isocyanate of formula IV is carried out where appropriate also in the presence of a catalyst, for example in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate in a suspension agent, for example pyridine.
Some compounds of the general formula IV wherein Z is a carboxylic acid chloride group (--COCl) are known and can be prepared by the process mentioned in CH-A-599 153. Others can be prepared in analogous manner.
From the correspondingly obtained (2,5-dihydro-3,4-(disubst.)-2,5-dioxo-pyrrol-1-yl)-carboxylic acid chlorides of formula IV there can be obtained by reaction with aqueous sodium azide solution in toluene in the presence of benzyltriethylammonium chloride the corresponding isocyanates of the general formula IV.
The photochemically cross-linked polysaccharides of the general formulae IA and IB according to the invention are, surprisingly, suitable as supports when methylene chloride (CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2), tetrahydrofuran and chloroform form a proportion of the mobile phase and are, surprisingly, far superior to the supports known hitherto from the prior art.
Separation of enantiomers with a mobile phase comprising methylene choride, or tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, can, surprisingly, be carried out advantageously.
In the case of certain racemates especially, better separation results have been achieved when using specific amounts of methylene chloride as mobile phase than with supports from the prior art. That surprising improvement in the separation results was attributable to the use of methylene chloride.
The photochemically cross-linked polysaccharides of the general formulae IA and IB in conditioned form can also be used as pure polymers for the chromatographic separation of enantiomers.
The various chromatographic separations of enantiomers are described and explained in more detail at the end of the preparation section (Examples).
The following Examples (including the preparation of the starting materials and intermediates) serve to illustrate and to provide further clarification of the invention.
Temperatures are given in degrees Celsius and pressures, unless otherwise indicated, in bars.
