Chiral resolution of α,α′‐bis[3‐(N,N‐diethylcarbamoyl)piperidino]‐p‐xylene, a novel antiplatelet compound

Abstract
α,α′-Bis[3-(N,N-diethylcarbamoyl)piperidino]-p-xylene dihydrobromide, a novel antiplatelet agent, was resolved into three isomers A, B, and C, on a chiral α1-acid glycoprotein analytical column using a mobile phase of 0.025 M phosphate buffer containing 0.025 M tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate, at a pH of 6.5. The effect of molarity, temperature, pH, flow rate, and organic modifiers on the enantioselectivity was examined. Based on circular dichroic spectra at 220 nm, A and C appear to be the (−)- and (+)-enantiomers, respectively, and B the meso diastereomer. Attempts at resolution using Pirkle type columns gave unsatisfactory results. It appears that both hydrophobic and polar interactions between the compound and the stationary phase are important determinants of resolution.
