Abstract
The present study investigates the utilization of a supramolecular deep eutectic solvent (SUPRADES), consisting of sulfated-β-cyclodextrin (S-β-CD) and citric acid (CA), as a chiral selector (CS) in capillary electrophoresis for the enantiomeric separation of nefopam (NEF) and five cathinone derivatives (3-methylmethcathinone [3-MMC], 4-methylmethcathinone [4-MMC], 3,4-dimethylmethcathinone [3,4-DMMC], 4-methylethcathinone [4-MEC], and 3,4-methylendioxycathinone [MDMC]). A significant improvement in enantiomeric separation of the target analytes was observed upon the addition of S-β-CD-CA to the background electrolyte (BGE), leading to a baseline separation of all analytes. In particular, the optimum percentage of S-β-CD-CA, added to the BGE, was determined to be 0.075% v/v for NEF (Rs = 1.5) and 0.050% v/v for three out of five cathinone derivatives (Rs = 1.5, 1.6, and 2.4 for 3-MMC, 4-MEC, and 3,4-DMMC, respectively). In the case of 4-MMC and MDMC, a higher percentage of the CS, equal to 0.075% and 0.10% v/v, respectively, was required to achieve baseline separation (Rs = 1.5, 1.9 for MDMC and 4-MMC, respectively). The outcomes of the present study highlight the potential effectiveness of using SUPRADES as a CS in electrophoretic enantioseparations.
期刊介绍:
ELECTROPHORESIS is an international journal that publishes original manuscripts on all aspects of electrophoresis, and liquid phase separations (e.g., HPLC, micro- and nano-LC, UHPLC, micro- and nano-fluidics, liquid-phase micro-extractions, etc.).
Topics include new or improved analytical and preparative methods, sample preparation, development of theory, and innovative applications of electrophoretic and liquid phase separations methods in the study of nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates natural products, pharmaceuticals, food analysis, environmental species and other compounds of importance to the life sciences.
Papers in the areas of microfluidics and proteomics, which are not limited to electrophoresis-based methods, will also be accepted for publication. Contributions focused on hyphenated and omics techniques are also of interest. Proteomics is within the scope, if related to its fundamentals and new technical approaches. Proteomics applications are only considered in particular cases.
Papers describing the application of standard electrophoretic methods will not be considered.
Papers on nanoanalysis intended for publication in ELECTROPHORESIS should focus on one or more of the following topics:
• Nanoscale electrokinetics and phenomena related to electric double layer and/or confinement in nano-sized geometry
• Single cell and subcellular analysis
• Nanosensors and ultrasensitive detection aspects (e.g., involving quantum dots, "nanoelectrodes" or nanospray MS)
• Nanoscale/nanopore DNA sequencing (next generation sequencing)
• Micro- and nanoscale sample preparation
• Nanoparticles and cells analyses by dielectrophoresis
• Separation-based analysis using nanoparticles, nanotubes and nanowires.
