Separation and simultaneous estimation of enantiomers and Diastereomers of muscarinic receptor antagonist Solifenacin using stability-indicating Normal-phase HPLC technique with chiral stationary phase amylose tris-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)

Chirality. 2023 Nov 23. doi: 10.1002/chir.23632. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe R,S-enantiomer impurity and diastereomer impurities (S,S-isomer and R,R-isomer) of the solifenacin (S,R-enantiomer) were effectively separated and quantified simultaneously utilizing normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with a chiral stationary phase consisting of amylose tris (3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) coated on silica-gel (Chiralpak, AD-H). The enantiomeric and stereo-selective separation was achieved within a run time of 35 minutes using a mobile phase of 'n-hexane, ethanol, and diethylamine' in an isocratic elution mode with a detection wavelength of 220 nm. The validation attributes assessed were accuracy (which showed excellent recoveries between 97.5% and 100.4%) and linearity (which was proven in the range of 0.081-1.275 μg.mL-1 , with a linear regression of 0.999). The stress testing experiments proved that the developed methodology by the HPLC technique has stability-indicating characteristics, as all closely eluting peak pairs were separated well with a resolution of 2.3 and without any interference. The proposed methodology was highly efficient in separating and simultaneously determining the chiral impurities (enantiomers and diastereomers) of the solifenacin in the release and stability sample analyses of drug substances and tablets in pharmaceutical formulations.PMID:37994273 | DOI:10.1002/chir.23632
