Cyclic amines (including local anesthetic drugs) and amides were among the first classes of chiral compounds investigated in the early stages of the application of macrocyclic antibiotics as chiral selectors therefore, they were screened on vancomycin [7], teicoplanin [30], and ristocetin A [33] CSPs, under RPmode systems. Cyclic imides (including barbiturates, piperidine-2,6-diones, and mephenytoin) have been separated on a vancomycin CSP [157], under NP and RP mobile phase conditions. 

The [ -adrenoreceptors antagonists (also called [)-blockers) comprise a group of chiral drugs that are mostly used in the treatment of cardiovascular disorders such as hypertension, cardiac arrhythmia, or ischemic heart disease. Teicoplanin is the chiral selector most exploited for the enantioseparation of this class of compounds, followed by vancomycin. Several P-blockers have been analyzed, particularly in the...

Armstrong et al. ° first introduced chiral stationary phases based on macrocyclic antibiotics. Vancomycin, ristocetin A, teicoplanin, avoparcin, rifamycin B and thiostrepton are used as chiral selectors. They posses a broad enantiorecognition range, similar to protein based CSPs. However, CSPs based on macrocyclic antibiotics show higher stability and capacities.Underivatized amino acids, N-derivatized amino-acids, acidic compounds, neutrals, amides, esters and amines can be separated.The first four of the above-mentioned chiral selectors appear to have the largest enantiorecognition range.The selectors can also be derivatized to obtain different enantioselectivities.

Brush-type, proteins, CDs, natural molecular imprint-based polymers (MIP), and macrocyclic antibiotics have been immobilized as chiral selectors on packed-CEC columns. Zheng and Shamsi demonstrated the possibility of using chiral CEC—ESI/MS with a commercially packed column for the determination of warfarin enantiomers in human plasma using coumachlor as an internal standard (IS). Robustness of this chiral CEC capillary was recently improved by a novel procedure and applied for the simultaneous enantiosepara-tion of height /1-blockers with multimodal CSP using different combinations of vancomycin and teicoplanin, as presented in Figure 5. ... 

The use of macrocyclic antibiotics as chiral selectors for HPLC was first proposed by Armstrong et al. [50] in 1994. The most successful of the CSPs are based on the glycopeptide antibiotics vancomycin, teicoplanin and ristocetin A and are commercially available through Advanced Separation Technologies Inc. (Astec Inc.) as Chirobiotic V , Chirobiotic 1 and Chirobiotic R , respectively. More recently, a number of other derivatives of these antibiotics have also been developed offering different stereoselectivities. A comprehensive handbook is now available from Astec Inc. [51 ] alongside a number of recent review articles... 

The application of antibiotics as chiral selectors has resulted in the successful resolution of almost all types of neutral, acidic, and basic racemic molecule. These antibiotics have been used for the enantiomeric resolution of amino acids, their derivatives, peptides, alcohols, and other pharmaceuticals. The selectivities of the most commonly used antibiotic-based (vancomycin, teicoplanin, and ristocetin A) CSPs varied from one racemate to another and are given in Table 1. Vancomycin was used for the chiral resolution of amino acids, amines, amides, imides, cyclic amines, amino alcohols, hydantoins, barbiturates, oxazolidinones, acids, profens, and other pharmaceuticals. Teicoplanin was found to be excellent chiral selector for the enantiomeric resolution of amino acids, amino alcohols, imides, peptides, hydantoins, a-hydroxy and halo acids, and oxazolidinones, whereas ristocetin A is capable of chiral resolution of amino acids, imides, amino... 

In addition to the common use of vancomycin and teicoplanin, the use of other antibiotics as chiral selectors in HPLC were limited. Only a few reports are available in the literature dealing with these antibiotics as HPLC CSPs. Armstrong et al. [42] resolved about 230 racemates on the ristocetin A antibiotic covalently bonded to silica gel. The resolution was carried out using the three modes of mobile phases. The results were complimentary to those obtained on vancomycin and teicoplanin CSPs. In another study, the effect of selector coverage and mobile phase composition on enantiomeric resolution with ristocetin A CSP was carried out by Armstrong et al. [43]. Thiostrepton-based CSP was also used to resolve the enantiomers of thioridazine, 2,2,2-trifluoro-l-... 

Apart from the above-discussed parameters for HPLC optimization of chiral resolution on antibiotic CSPs, some other HPLC conditions may be controlled to improve chiral resolution on these CSPs. The effect of the concentrations of antibiotics (on stationary phase) on enantioresolution varied depending on the type of racemates. The effect of the concentrations of teicoplanin has been studied on the retention (k), enantioselectivity (a), resolution (Rs), and theoretical plate number (N) for five racemates [21]. An increase in the concentration of teicoplanin resulted in an increase of a and Rs values. The most surprising fact is that the theoretical plate number (N) increases with the increase in the concentration of teicoplanin. It may be the result of the resistance of mass transfer resulting from analyte interaction with free silanol and/or the linkage chains (antibiotics linked with silica gel). This would tend to trap an analyte between the silica surface and the bulky chiral selector adhered to it. This is somewhat... 

EPMEs based on antibiotics are proposed for the enantioanalysis of L-vesamicol [51]. A carbon paste was modified with antibiotics (vancomycin, teicoplanin and teicoplanin modified with acetonitrile), as chiral selectors. The EPMEs based on antibiotics were reliably used for enantiopurity tests of L-vesamicol using the direct potentiometric technique. The following linear concentration ranges 1.0 x 10-6 - 1.0 x 10 4,... 

The macrocyclic antibiotics vancomycin [51,52] and teicoplanin [53] were successfully employed as chiral selectors for enantiomer separation in p-CEC. Warfarin,... 

There are literally hundreds of glycopeptide antibiotics, from which vancomycin, teicoplanin, and subsequently risuxretin A (for structures see Fig. 9.18) have been commercialized by Astec as Chirobiotic V, ChiiX)biotic T. and Chirobiotic R. More recently, avoparcin (see Fig. 9.18) has also been successfully applied as a chiral selector [280],... 

Tesarova and Bosakova [58] proposed an HPLC method for the enantio-selective separation of some phenothiazine and benzodiazepine derivatives on six different chiral stationary phases (CSPs). These selected CSPs, with respect to the structure of the separated compounds, were either based on b-CD chiral selectors (underivatized (J>-CD and hydroxypropyl ether (3-CD) or on macrocyclic antibiotics (vancomycin, teicoplanin, teicoplanin aglycon and ristocetin A). Measurements were carried out in a reversed-phase separation mode. The influence of mobile phase composition on retention and enantio-selective separation was studied. Enantioselective separation of phenothiazine derivatives, including levopromazine (LPZ), promethazine and thioridazine, was relatively difficult to achieve, but it was at least partly successful with both types of CSPs used in this work (CD-based and glycopeptide-based CSP), except for levomepromazine for which only the [CCD-based CSP was suitable. 

Glycopeptide antibiotics have been found to be very effective chiral selectors in the enantiomeric separation of racemic pharmaceutical compounds. Vancomycin, ristocetin A, rifamycins, teicoplanin, kanamycin, streptomycin, and avoparcin have been added to the running buffer to obtain enantioseparation (161,203— 207). A few technical modifications, such as coated capillaries and separation conditions in the reverse polarity mode (as opposed to normal polarity mode, where the flow is from anode to cathode) were found to improve sensitivity and increase efficiency (116,208).

Since first demonstration in 1994 of the potential use of macrocyclic antibiotics as chiral selectors in analysis, glycopeptide antibiotics have been successfully applied for enantiomer separations by liquid chromatography, as recognition components of chiral stationary phases, and by capillary electrophoresis (CE) as soluble chiral selec-tors. Four chiral stationary phases for chromatography with the selectors vancomycin, ristocetin, teicoplanin, and the teicoplanin aglycone are commercialized under the trade name Chirobiotic by Astec and Supelco. Various aspects of analytical applications of glycopeptide antibiotics have been extensively covered in the recent reviews cited above. As an example. Table 2 shows some representative results for CE enantioseparations with vancomycin, ristocetin A, and teicoplanin, which were taken from Ref. 39. 

CEC has also been used for the chiral analysis of pollutants, using a variety of chiral mobile phase additives. Cyclodextrin chiral selectors have been used for the chiral resolution of ibuprofen [49], 2-phenylpropionic acid and warfarin [50]. Other chiral selectors that have been resolved include warfarin on human semm albumin [51], ibuprofen on avidin [52], dichloroprop, ibuprofen, warfarin and thalidomide on vancomycin [53], ibuprofen and warfarin on teicoplanin [54], thalidomide and warfarin on...
