The Enantiomeric Discrimination of 5-Hexyl-2-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole by Sulfobutyl ether-β-cyclodextrin: A Case Study
1-Pyrrolines are important intermediates of active natural products, such as the 2,5-dialkyl-1-pyrroline derivatives found in fire ant venoms. Here, 5-hexyl-2-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole was synthesized by the enzymatic transamination/cyclization of 2,5-undecadione, and enantiodifferenciation was successfully achieved by capillary electrophoresis with sulfobutyl ether-β-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector. The rationale of the enantiomeric discrimination was based on the results of a docking simulation that revealed the higher affinity of (S)-5-hexyl-2-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole for the sulfobutyl ether-β-cyclodextrin.
