Normal-Phase Automated Mass-Directed HPLC Purification of a Pyrrolobenzodiazepine Library with Vasopressin Agonist Activity
2009
A 23-member library of pyrrolobenzodiazepine derivatives with vasopressin agonist activity was purified on a 100-mg per injection scale using normal-phase (NP) automated mass-directed HPLC. Analytical NP APCI-LC/MS on an experimental monolith silica CN column utilizing gradients of methanol in ethoxynonafluorobutane (hexane-like solvent) was used to provide data on chromatographic purity and ionization of the solutes. The analytical data collected were used to program a preparative LC/MS instrument for “smart” fraction collection based on the protonated molecular ion of the component of interest. Preparative HPLC was carried out on a preparative cyano column with gradients of polar organic solvents in heptane containing n-propylamine as a basic additive. Flow rates twice as high as conventional ones were used for purification of library compounds. Small aliquots of the preparative flow were mixed with makeup solvent and introduced into an APCI source of a quadrupole mass spectrometer, which triggered coll...
