The diastereomers of ketones 2 and 3 are shown to exhibit distinct photochemical reactivities due to conformational preferences; while the anti isomers of 2 and 3 undergo efficient Yang cyclization in 75−90% yields with a remarkable diastereoselectivity (> 90%), the syn isomers predominantly undergo Norrish Type II elimination. The differences in the product profiles of the diastereomers are consistent with a mechanistic picture involving the formation of precursor diastereomeric triplet 1,4-biradicals in which the substituents at α and β-positions stabilize the cisoid (cyclization) or transoid (elimination) geometry. The fact that such a diastereomeric relationship does indeed ensue at the triplet-excited-state itself is demonstrated via the nanosecond laser-flash photolysis of model ketones 1. The diastereomeric discrimination in the product profiles observed for ketones 2 and 3 as well as in the triplet lifetimes observed for ketones 1 can both be mechanistically traced back to different conformational preferences of the ground-state diastereomeric ketones and the intermediary 1,4-biradicals. Additionally, it emerges from the present study that the syn and anti diastereomers of ketones 2 and 3 represent two extremes of a broad range of widely examined butyrophenones, which lead to varying degrees of Yang photocyclization depending on the alkyl substitution pattern.

Abstract Liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) were applied to characterize drug metabolites. Although these two methods have overcome the identification and structural characterization of metabolites analysis, they remain time‐consuming processes. In this study, a novel multiple‐stage tandem mass spectrometric method (MS n ) was evaluated for identification and characterization of new minor metabolism profiling of penicillin G, one of the β‐lactam antibiotics, in human serum. Seven minor metabolites including five phase I metabolites and two phase II metabolites of penicillin G were identified by using data‐dependent LC/MS n screening in one chromatographic run. The accuracy masses of seven identified metabolites of penicillin G were also confirmed by mass spectral calibration software (MassWorks™). The proposed data‐dependent LC/MS n method is a powerful tool to provide large amounts of the necessary structural information to characterize minor metabolite in metabolism profiling.

Abstract A practical method for separation of the methyl esters of two diastereomeric, α-methylated, 2-azetidinon-4-ylacetic acid derivatives by selective dissolution using two solvents in which their relative solubilities are distinctly different is described. The less soluble diastereomer was first isolated from isopropanol in which the solubility of the more soluble diastereomer is 1.65 times that of the less soluble diastereomer. The more soluble diastereomer was then isolated from the mother liquor after a solvent switch to toluene in which the solubility of the more soluble diastereomer is only 1.15 times that of the less soluble diastereomer. The isolation cycle was then repeated to separate more of the diastereomers. This method is particularly useful for isolation of the more soluble component. A proposed explanation of the solubility differences suggests that the approach may be widely applicable to the separation of other structurally similar compounds.

Abstract The catecholamines adrenaline, noradrenaline, dopamine, dopa and isoprenaline were oxidized into their respective aminochromes: adrenochrome, noradrenochrome, dopaminochrome, dopachrome and isoprenochrome. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) fragmentation patterns were examined for the five aminochromes in order to establish a general structural assignment of these oxidation products by electrospray mass spectrometry. Although protonated aminochromes undergo similar fragmentation patterns with a characteristic consecutive loss of two carbonyl groups, the presence of different substituents in the parent compounds led to significant changes in the CID spectra. This feature is more evident for isoprenochrome and dopachrome, especially for the latter where the MS/MS spectrum is dominated by the loss of formic acid. A general pattern of fragmentation for aminochromes is proposed, which should provide a suitable basis to aid their characterization in studies in vivo or in vitro .

Human pancreatic polypeptide (HPP) is a 36 amino acid peptide hormone that plays a role in the bidirectional communication between the digestive system and the brain. HPP measurements are used to assess vagal nerve function following sham feeding and to detect gastroenteropancreatic-neuroendocrine tumors. These tests have historically been conducted by radioimmunoassays, but liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has several advantages such as improved specificity and elimination of radioactive molecules. Here, we present our LC-MS/MS method. Initially, samples were immunopurified and subjected to LC-high resolution accurate mass tandem mass spectrometry (HRAM-MS/MS) to identify circulating forms of the peptide in human plasma. We identified 23 forms of HPP, including several glycosylated forms. The most abundant peptides then were used for targeted LC-MS/MS measurements. LC-MS/MS performance for precision, accuracy, linearity, recovery, limit of detection, and carryover met our acceptance criteria based on CLIA regulations. Additionally, we observed the expected physiological rise in HPP in response to sham feeding. Our results indicate that HPP measurement by LC-MS/MS produces clinically equivalent results to our established immunoassay when several peptides are monitored, making it a suitable replacement. The measurement of peptide fragments, including modified species, might have additional clinical value.
