Preparative Enantioselective Chromatography


Book Description

The development of chiral liquid chromatography, facilitating thestraightforward separation of enantiomers, was a significantadvance in chromatography, leading to widespread application inanalytical chemistry. Application in preparative chromatography hasbeen less rapid, but with the development of single enantiomerpharmaceuticals its use is increasingly common in chemicalsynthesis at laboratory, pilot plant and even full productionscale. Brings non-experts up to speed quickly and comprehensively,facilitating the rapid development of effective separations ofenantiomeric mixtures on a range of process scales Presents case studies drawn from within the pharmaceuticalindustry to clearly illustrate the utility and value of preparativescale enantioselective chromatography in chemical research,development and production Key reference source and entry to the literature so the readerdoes not have to engage in expensive and time consuming literaturesearching




Chiral Separation Techniques


Book Description

This is a completely revised and updated sequel to 'A Practical Approach to Chiral Separations by Liquid Chromatography' by the same editor. The scope has been extended to further chiral separation techniques like electrophoresis, membrane separations, or biological assays. More emphasis is put on preparative separation techniques. From reviews of the previous edition: 'A team of experts from academic and industrial laboratories throughout the world have compiled their findings and experience to make this book an exceptionally timely and unique contribution to the field' European Journal of Drug Metabolism 'The dense mass of information contained in this book will make it a valuable resource ...' Chemical Engineering Research '... this is a worthwhile addition to the expanding chiral literature and the book should be of value to those working in this field' The Analyst




Chiral Liquid Chromatography


Book Description

While working as a chromatographer in the pharmaceutical industry, it became apparent to the editor that there was a pressing need for a comprehensive reference text for analysts working on the resolution of enantiomers by liquid chromatography (LC). This need arises from the fact that, whereas previously it was very difficult to determine enantiomers by direct means, there is now a wide choice of direct LC methods. At the same time, regulatory authorities have been changing their attitudes towards the administration of pharmaceuticals as racemates, partly because it is now possible to study the individual enantiomers. Clearly this abundance of new information needs to be rationalized. More importantly, the chiral LC systems which are commercially available or readily accessible to the practising chromatographer needed to be reviewed and, to a much greater extent than in existing reviews or books, discussed in terms of their practical application. Accordingly this book is very much orientated towards the practical aspects of these commercially available and readily accessible chiral LC systems. To this end, it is written for practising chromatographers by a team of practising, experienced chromatographers who have spent many years tackling the problems presented by resolving enantiomers by LC. The practical aspects of common chiral LC systems cannot be fully understood if discussed in isolation.




Preparative Chromatography


Book Description

Completely revised and substantially extended to reflect the developments in this fast-changing field. It retains the interdisciplinary approach that elegantly combines the chemistry and engineering involved to describe the conception and improvement of chromatographic processes. It also covers recent advances in preparative chromatographic processes for the separation of "smaller" molecules using standard laboratory equipment as well as the detailed conception of industrial chemical plants. The increase in biopharmaceutical substances is reflected by new and revised chapters on different modifications of continuous chromatography as well as ion-exchange chromatography and other separation principles widely used in biochromatography. Following an introductory section on the history of chromatography, the current state of research and the design of chromatographic processes, the book goes on to define the general terminology. There then follow sections on stationary phases, selection of chromatographic systems and process concepts. A completely new chapter deals with engineering and operation of chromatographic equipment. Final chapters on modeling and determination of model parameters as well as model based design, optimization and control of preparative chromatographic processes allow for optimal selection of chromatographic processes. Essential for chemists and chemical engineers in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries.




Enantiomer Separation


Book Description

In spite of important advances in asymmetric synthesis, chiral compounds cannot all be obtained in a pure state by asymmetric synthesis. As a result, enantiomer separation remains an important technique for obtaining optically active materials. Although asymmetric synthesis is a once-only procedure, an enantiomer separation process can be repeated until the optically pure sample is obtained. This book discusses several new enantiomer separation methods using modern techniques developed by experts in the field. These methods consist mainly of the following three types: 1) Enantiomer separation by inclusion complexation with a chiral host compound 2) Enantiomer separation using biological methods 3) Enantiomer separation by HPLC chromatography using a column containing a chiral stationary phase. Separation of a racemic compound has been called “optical resolution” or simply “resolution”. Nowadays, the descriptions “enantiomer resolution” or “enantiomer separation” are also commonly used. Accordingly, “Enantiomer Separation” is used in the title of this book. The editor and all chapter contributors hope that this book is helpful for scientists and engineers working in this field.
