Impact of Substituent Position in Monosubstituted -Cyclodextrins on Enantioselectivity in Capillary Electrophoresis Michal Řezanka, Pavel Řezanka, David Sýkora*, Jindřich Jindřich, Vladimír Král Supporting Information Experimental – additional supporiting data 1. Equipment NMR spectra were recorded with a Bruker Avance III (600 MHz) (1H at 600.17 MHz, 13C NMR at 150.04 MHz) with solutions in deuterated solvents and referenced to residual solvent peak. Chemical shifts are given in δ-scale, coupling constants J in Hz. Numbering of atoms for NMR spectra transcription was done according to Fig. S1. Position numbers of glucose unit bearing an alkyl substituent are tagged with “I” symbol where the assignment is unambiguous. Positions corresponding to all other glucose signals are numbered indiscriminately. Position numbers of atoms in alkyl substituent are tagged with “ ´ ” symbol. The assignment of the 1H and 13C signals was based on 2D NMR techniques (1H-1H COSY, HSQC, HMBC) and APT. Fig. S1. Numbering of atoms in -cyclodextrin derivatives 2. Synthesis of monosubstituted carboxymethyl derivatives of -CD 2I-O-, 3I-O-, and 6I-O-carboxymethyl--cyclodextrins (2I-O-, 3I-O-, and 6I-O-CMACD) were synthesized by Zemplen deacetylation of previously described per-O-acetyl-2I-O-, 3I-O-, and 6I-Ocarboxymethyl--cyclodextrins (per-Ac-2I-O-, 3I-O-, and 6I-O-CMACD) by Jindrich’s group [Řezanka, M., Jindřich, J., Carbohydr. Res. 2011, 15, 2374-2379.] (Scheme S1). The purity of CMACD was determined by NMR and for all derivatives was > 95 %. 1 AcO O O AcO HO O HO COOH O O OAc a OAc O 96 % O OAc 5 Per-Ac-2I-O-CMACD AcO HOOC O COOH O OH OH O OH 5 2I-O-CMACD O HO O O HOOC O O O AcO HO OAc OH a OAc O 99 % O OAc 5 Per-Ac-3I-O-CMACD HOOC OH O OH 5 3I-O-CMACD O HOOC O O O O HO O AcO O AcO OAc HO a OAc O 97 % OAc 5 Per-Ac-6I-O-CMACD O OH OH O OH 5 6I-O-CMACD O a = CH3ONa/CH3OH Scheme S1. Preparation of monosubstituted carboxymethyl--cyclodextrins 2I-O-Carboxymethyl--cyclodextrin (2I-O-CMACD). A solution of MeONa in MeOH (20 mL, 0.1 mol/L, 2.0 mmol) was added to per-Ac-2I-O-CMACD (851 mg, 0.49 mmol) under Ar atmosphere. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h, quenched by addition of water (15 mL). The reaction mixture was evaporated and the residue was dissolved in water (10 mL). The solution was stirred with DOWEX 50Wx2 in H+ form (10 g) for 15 minutes and DOWEX was filtered out. Evaporation of the solution afforded 482 mg (96 %) of the title compound as a white powder. Spectral characteristics were in agreement with the published data [Hanessian, S., Benalil, A., Laferriere, C., J. Org. Chem. 1995, 60, 4786-4797]. 3I-O-Carboxymethyl--cyclodextrin (3I-O-CMACD). A solution of MeONa in MeOH (16 mL, 0.1 mol/L, 1.6 mmol) was added to per-Ac-3I-O-CMACD (704 mg, 0.40 mmol) under Ar atmosphere. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h, quenched by addition of water (10 mL). The reaction mixture was evaporated and the residue was dissolved in water (8 mL). The solution was stirred with DOWEX 50Wx2 in H+ form (8 g) for 15 minutes and DOWEX was filtered out. Evaporation of the solution afforded 410 mg (99 %) of the title compound as a white powder: 1H NMR (600 MHz, D2O): δ 5.15–5.01 (m, 6 H, 6 × H-1), 4.71 (d, 1 H, Jgem 16.9 Hz, H-1´), 4.48 (d, 1 2 H, Jgem 16.9 Hz, H-1´), 4.06–3.53 (m, 36 H, 6 × H-2, 6 × H-3, 6 × H-4, 6 × H-5, 12 × H-6) ppm. 13C NMR (151 MHz, D2O): δ 176.91 (C-2´), 103.58 (C-1), 103.39 (C-1), 103.36 (C-1), 103.30 (C-1), 103.28 (C-1), 103.23 (C-1), 83.54–73.04 (6 × C-2, 6 × C-3, 6 × C-4, 6 × C-5), 71.15 (C-1´), 62.48– 61.96 (6 × C-6) ppm.
