Photolysis of Tertiary Amines in the Presence of CO2: The Paths to Formic Acid, α-Amino Acids, and 1,2-Diamines
2017
The photolysis of triethylamine (1a) in the presence of carbon dioxide leads to the hydrogenation of CO2, the α-C-C coupling of triethylamine (1a), and the CO2-insertion into the α-C-H σ-bond of amine 1a. This reaction is proposed to proceed through the radical ion pair [R3N·+·CO2·-] generated by the photoionization of amine 1a and the electron capture by CO2. The presence of lithium tetrafluoroborate in the reaction medium promotes the efficient and stereoselective α-C-C coupling of 1a by enhancing the production of α-dialkylamino radicals and the isomerization of N,N,N',N'-tetraethylbutane-2,3-diamine (4a).
Performance of a Chromolith RP-18e column for the screening of β-blockers
2009
The chromatographic performance of a monolithic column (Chromolith RP-18e) was comprehensively examined in the isocratic separation of ten beta-blockers, using ACN-water mobile phases, and compared with the performance of three microparticulate RP columns manufactured with different types of silica: Spherisorb ODS-2, Kromasil C18 and XTerra MS C18. The comparison considered the analysis time, selectivity, peak shape (column efficiency and asymmetry) and resolution, and was extended to a wide range of mobile phase compositions. The Chromolith column showed good performance for the analysis of beta-blockers with regard to the packed columns. In terms of selectivity and analysis time, the grea…
Micellar Liquid Chromatography: A Worthy Technique for the Determination of β-Antagonists in Urine Samples
1998
Several beta-antagonists (acebutolol, atenolol, celiprolol, labetalol, metoprolol, nadolol, propranolol) were determined in urine samples with fluorometric detection after direct injection, in less than 15 min, with a micellar mobile phase of 0.1 M sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 15% propanol, and 1% triethylamine at pH 3. The limits of detection (38 criterion) were usually between 3 and 30 ng/mL. The addition of propanol and triethylamine and the reduction of the pH of the mobile phase improved the efficiency of the chromatographic peaks that was rather low in pure micellar eluents. The selection of the composition of the mobile phase was easily performed through the use of an interpretive p…
Ring splitting of azetidin-2-ones via radical anions
2012
The radical anions of azetidin-2-ones, generated by UV-irradiation in the presence of triethylamine, undergo ring-splitting via N-C4 or C3-C4 bond breaking, leading to open-chain amides. This reactivity diverges from that found for the neutral excited states, which is characterised by alpha-cleavage. The preference for beta-cleavage is supported by DFT theoretical calculations on the energy barriers associated with the involved transition states. Thus, injection of one electron into the azetidin-2-one moiety constitutes a complementary activation strategy which may be exploited to produce new chemistry.
Chromatographic separation of chlorthalidone enantiomers using β-cyclodextrins as chiral additives
2000
Different beta-cyclodextrins have been tested as chiral additives in the mobile phase for the chromatographic analysis of chlorthalidone enantiomers in a C18 LiChrospher (125 x 4 mm I.D.) column. The effect on enantioresolution of different parameters was studied: composition of the mobile phase (percentage of organic solvent, type of buffer and pH), mobile phase flow-rate, and type and concentration of beta-cyclodextrin. A 25:75 mixture of methanol and 0.1 M phosphate buffer, pH 4, containing 2% triethylamine (v/v), and 12.5 mM beta-cyclodextrin, at a flow-rate of 0.8 ml/min, was found to be the best option for the resolution of chlorthalidone enantiomers. Under such conditions, linear cal…
Amine basicity: measurements of ion pair stability in ionic liquid media
2007
Abstract The stability constants relevant to the formation of amine/p-nitrophenol ion pairs have been determined in [bmim][BF4] solution, in the presence of butylamine, piperidine, and triethylamine, by using spectrophotometric measurements. In order to evaluate how the ion pair stability is affected by ionic liquid structure, piperidine has been chosen as model amine for studies in [bmim][PF6], [bmim][NTf2], [bm2im][NTf2] and in several [bmim][BF4]/1,4-dioxane binary mixtures. Data obtained in ionic liquid solutions have been compared with those previously reported in conventional organic solvents.
Synthesis, Characterization, and Properties of Some Copper( II ) Complexes of 2‐Pyridineformamide Thiosemicarbazone (HAm4DH)
2006
Reactions between different copper(II) salts and 2-pyridineformamide thiosemicarbazone (HAm4DH) in neutral ethanolic media led to the formation of complexes with the formulae [Cu(HAm4DH)X2] (X = Cl or Br) (1, 2) and [Cu(HAm4DH)2]X2 (X = NO3 or ClO4) (3, 4). The same reactions carried out in the presence of triethylamine gave rise to new complexes with the general formulae [Cu(Am4DH)X] (X = Cl, Br, AcO, or NO3) (5–8), [Cu(H2O)(Am4DH)](ClO4) (9), and [Cu(Am4DH)2] (10), many of which were isolated with different molecules of crystallization and contain a deprotonated thiosemicarbazone (Am4DH). These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, and different spectroscopic and magnetic te…
Gaining insight in the behaviour of imidazolium-based ionic liquids as additives in reversed-phase liquid chromatography for the analysis of basic co…
2015
In reversed-phase liquid chromatography in the absence of additives, cationic basic compounds give rise to broad and asymmetrical peaks as a result of ionic interactions with residual free silanols on silica-based stationary phases. Ionic liquids (ILs), added to the mobile phase, have been suggested as alternatives to amines to block the activity of silanols. However, the dual character of ILs should be considered: both cation and anion may be adsorbed on the stationary phase, thereby creating a double asymmetrical layer positively or negatively charged, depending on the relative adsorption of both ions. In this work, a study of the performance of six imidazolium-based ILs (the chlorides an…
Improvement of peak shape and separation performance of beta-blockers in conventional reversed-phase columns using solvent modifiers.
2003
A comparative study of peak shape, elution behavior, and resolution of 16 beta-blockers (acebutolol, alprenolol, atenolol, bisoprolol, carteolol, celiprolol, esmolol, labetalol, metoprolol, nadolol, oxprenolol, pindolol, practolol, propranolol, sotalol, and timolol) chromatographed with hybrid mobile phases of triethylamine (TEA)-acetonitrile and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-propanol is performed using conventional reversed-phase columns and isocratic elution. Both solvent modifiers (TEA and SDS) prevent the interaction of the basic drugs with the alkyl-bonded phase. However, the protection mechanisms of silanols on the packing are different. Whereas TEA associates with the silanol sites (b…
Micellar-organic versus aqueous-organic mobile phases for the screening of β-blockers
2002
A comparative study of the performance of reversed-phase liquid chromatography with micellar-organic (MLC) and aqueous-organic (RPLC) mobile phases is reported for the separation of 16 -blockers (acebutolol, alprenolol, atenolol, bisoprolol, carteolol, celiprolol, esmolol, labetalol, metoprolol, nadolol, oxprenolol, pindolol, practolol, propranolol, sotalol, and timolol). MLC with hybrid mobile phases of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and propanol is revealed as a very competitive technique for the screening of these drugs. Using a conventional Spherisorb C18 column, the theoretical plates ( N) and asymmetry factors (B/A) for the optimal mobile phase compositions were in the ranges N = 2200–4…
