Introduction More than half of the currently approved drugs are chiral molecules. Develop single enantiomer drugs • Reducing the required dose • Increasing the potency • Improving the safety profile 7 of the 10 best-selling US pharmaceutical products are single enantiomer. Asymmetric synthesis (Catalysts screening) Mass Spectrometry Chiral Recognition Chiral analysis (Quality control) Ranking of the top 10 best-selling US pharmaceutical products in 2011 was obtained from webpage: http://www.imshealth.com/.
Introduction Traditionally, MS has been considered a “chiral-blind” technique Enantiomers: Same mass and show identical mass spectra Two strategies to differentiate a pair of enantiomers with MS • 1. Coupling of chiral sensitive analytical tools with MS • Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) • Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) • … • 2. MS is used solely in chiral analysis based on different methods of chiral recognition • Host-Guest (H-G) Associations • Guest Exchange Ion-Molecule Reactions • Chiral Recognition Based on Complex Dissociation H. Awad, A. EI-Aneed, Mass Spectrom Rev, 2013, 32, 466–483
Hyphenated MS techniques Coupling of chiral sensitive analytical tools with MS • Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) • Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) • Capillary Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometry (CE-MS) • Capillary Electrochromatography-Mass Spectrometry (CEC-MS) • Supercritical Fluid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (SFC-MS) New detector: Mass Spectrometer (MS) Advantages: Limitations: • Nonpolar solvents were incompatible with ESI or APCI • Salts and other nonvolatile compounds in the mobile phase were incompatible with ESI • Choosing chiral stationary phase is a daunting task • Sensitive • Accurate • Speed • High throughput H. Awad, A. EI-Aneed, Mass Spectrom Rev, 2013, 32, 466–483
Hyphenated MS techniques Two options for chiral analysis using hyphenated MS techniques: • Indirect approach: • Analysis of covalent diastereomeric complexes • Separated by conventional methods • Direct approach: • Analysis of noncovalentdiastereomeric complexes Direct approach is preferred Indirect approach: Need more time for the reaction step Derivatized by the CS to form covalent complexes Form transient bond with CS CS: chiral derivatization reagent CS: chiral mobile phase additives (CMPAs) chiral stationary phases (CSPs) H.

Chiral Recognition Mechanisms 1. Host-Guest (H-G) Associations Ion abundance ratio: The affinity of each enantiomer towards the CS One of the two enantiomers (guest) tagged with deuterium atoms CS (host) J. Kim, et al, Bull. Korean. Chem. Soc. 2008, 29, 1069-1072.
Chiral Recognition Mechanisms 2. Guest Exchange Ion-Molecule Reactions Unlabeled analyte enantiomers (guest) react with the CS (host) forming identical diastereomeric complexes Principle: Depends on the different exchange behavior of enantiomers with a foreign reagent Can’t be separated in a single stage MS Different intensity ratio R The complex ions are mass selected and allowed to react with a neutral gas-phase reagent R J.
