Notes:
A new glycopeptide antibiotic, MDL 63,246 (Hepta-tyr), of the teicoplanin family, has been evaluated in capillary electrophoresis for the resolution of chiral compounds of pharmaceutical and environmental interest. Electrophoretic separations were carried out in a polyacrylamide-coated capillary using the partial filling-counter current mode with aqueous-organic buffers in the pH range 4-6. Experimental parameters affecting resolution, such as antibiotic concentration, buffer pH, organic modifier type and capillary temperature, were studied. The Hepta-tyr antibiotic exhibited a high enantiorecognition capability towards the studied compounds at very low concentrations (1-2 mg/mL). The optimum experimental conditions were achieved by using a buffer at pH 5 containing acetonitrile at 25°C.
