Amylose effect

Derivatized amylose is the basis for the Chiralpak AD CSP. This CSP has been utilized for the resolution of ibuprofen and flurbiprofen, as well as other members of the family of nonsteroidal inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) [39, 61]. Ibuprofen was not resolved on the Chiralpak AD CSP in LC. Pressure-related effects on stereoselectivity were observed by Bargmann-Leyder et al. on a Chiralpak AD CSP [58]. No corresponding effect of pressure on selectivity was observed with a Chiralcel OD CSP. The authors speculated that the helical conformation of the amylose-based CSP is more flexible than that of the cellulose-based CSP. 

Changes in pressure typically have a greater impact on retention than on selectivity. Most studies of CSPs have indicated little effect of pressure on stereoselectivity [28, 31]. However, Bargmann-Leyder et al. reported pressure-related changes in selectivity for an amylose-based CSP, though the magnitude of the pressure effect was not the same for all the compounds studied [58]. Pressures in the range of 15-20 MPa are common for chiral SFC.

Okamoto et al [85] performed the optical resolution of primaquine and other racemic drugs by high performance liquid chromatography using cellulose and amylose tris-(phenylcarbamate) derivatives as chiral stationary phases. Primaquine and other compounds were effectively resolved by cellulose and/or amylose derivatives having substituents such as methyl, tertiary butyl, or halogen, on the phenyl groups. 

An early report from Shukla et al.129 showed efficient hydrolysis and isomerization reactions of disaccharides, including cellobiose, maltose, and lactose, over zeolites type A, X, and Y. Abbadi et al.130 studied the hydrolysis of maltose, amylose, and starch over the zeolitic materials H-mordenite, H-beta, and mesoporous MCM-41. The effect of temperature and pressure, as well as that of the Si/Al ratio of H-mordenite and H-beta zeolites, on their catalytic activity was investigated for the... 

The effect of chain length on the ability of degraded amylose to form complexes was studied by Whistler and associates.63 When amylose is hydrolyzed to a degree of polymerization of 20 to 40, it no longer forms insoluble complexes with nitrobenzene, n-pentyl acetate and 2-heptanone, although it still does with 1-butanol and 2-nitropropane.

It has not yet been possible to obtain samples of amylopectin which do not show some slight evidence of uptake of iodine by linear material in the early stages of an accurate potentiometric titration. Although this effect is presumably due to contaminating amylose, the presence of some long branches in the amylopectin cannot be excluded. Anderson and Greenwood190 have shown that in 0.01 M iodide solution, for concentrations of total free iodine less than 1 X 10-6 M, the amount of iodine bound by...

From the positive Cotton effect observed in the amylose case and the negative Cotton effect in the SPG case, it is clear that the oligosilane adopts opposite screw sense helical conformations in the two cases.337 It now appears possible to associate an d/-screw sense helix with a positive sign Cotton effect (and vice versa), although other experimental confirmations of this are desirable. 

Exhaustive studies on well-defined systems are rather scarce (4) nevertheless 3 systems thoroughly analyzed by independant research groups are of outstanding interest a) the quaternization of polyvinylpyridines by alkyl halogenides (20-25) b) the chlorination of polyethylene (13,26-28) c) the basic or acid hydrolysis of PMMA (29-31). On the other hand, neighbouring groups effects have been quantitatively taken into account for the kinetic analysis of periodate oxidation of amylose (32,33).
