The first total syntheses of (+)- and (-)-subereamollines A and B are reported. The enantiomeric forms of the natural products were obtained by preparative chiral HPLC separation of the corresponding racemates.

Herein, we report a short, three-step synthesis of d-[1-(14) C]-serine (4) in high enantiomeric purity. Starting from [(14) C]-KCN and 2-(benzyloxy)acetaldehyde, Strecker reaction using (R)-1-phenylethylamine as the chiral auxiliary gave two diastereomeric aminonitriles 1 and 2 in the ratio of 4:3, which were conveniently separated and purified chromatographically. Following hydrolysis and subs...

The synthesis and resolution of a class of chiral organic fluorophores, axially chiral 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacenes (Ax*-BODIPY), is described. Ax*-BODIPYs were prepared through a modular synthesis combined with a late stage Heck functionalisation. Resolution was achieved by preparative chiral HPLC. Absolute stereochemical assignment was performed by comparison of experimental EC...

The isomerization of lisinopril has been investigated using chromatographic, NMR spectroscopic, and theoretical calculations. The NMR data, particularly the NOEDIFF experiments, show that the major species that was eluted first is the trans form. The proportion was 77% and 23% for the trans and cis, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG) were determined by varying the tempe...

BACKGROUND Urinary albumin detection by immunonephelometry is decreased by approximately 30% in samples that have been frozen at -20 degrees C. An HPLC method for assessment of urinary albumin that detects immunoreactive and immunochemically nonreactive albumin has been introduced as an alternative to immunonephelometry. We investigated whether this technique is affected by sample temperature, ...

A 1,8-naphthalimide with [6]helicene derivative scaffold has been designed and synthesized. The (P)- and (M)-enantiomers of the [6]helicene derivative were resolved by HPLC on a chiral column. The single crystal of the [6]helicene derivative exhibits an intermolecular interactions of the 1,8-naphthalimide units.

A new cyclohexenone compound was isolated as a mixture of enantiomers from a culture filtrate of Lasiodiplodia theobromae. The relative structure was determined to be 4,5-dihydroxy-3-methyl-cyclohex-2-enone on the basis of MS, (1)H-NMR, and (13)C-NMR spectroscopic analyses, including 2D-NMR experiments. Resolution of the enantiomers was conducted by a coupling reaction with (S)-MTPA-Cl followed...
