Preparation of Optically Pure (R)-(+)-Nicotine. Studies on the Microbial Degradation of Nicotinoids
Edwards, William B.,McCuen, R.
, p. 2484 - 2487 (1983)
(R)-(+)-Nicotine (1a) of high optical purity (average 99.6percent) has been obtained from (R,S)-nicotine by stereoselective microbial degradation of the (S)-(-)-nicotine with use of the microorganism Pseudomonas putida.Liquid culture results indicated that the organism growing on (S)-(-)-nicotine can utilize 1a but at a slower rate.Studies on related nicotinoids showed the microorganism to be primarily specific for (S)-(-)-nicotine.

Brunner, Henri,Kuerzinger, Alfred,Mahboobi, Siavosh,Wiegrebe, Wolfgang
, p. 73 - 76 (1988)
Enantioselective hydrosilylations of the 3,4-dihydropyrrole derivatives 1a-c and 5 with in-situ catalysts consisting of 2 and optically active phosphines yield the N-silyl compounds 2a-c and 6 in up to 66.1percent ee.The N-silyl derivatives were treated with acetic formic anhydride or trifluoroacetic anhydride to give the N-formyl and N-trifluoroacetyl compounds 3a-c, 4a-c, 7, and 8.The alkaloids nicotine and macrostomine were synthesized with 63.3 and 33percent ee by reduction of the N-formyl compounds 8 and 12.Enantioselective hydrogenations of the N-formyl and N-trifluoroacetyl-2-phenylpyrrolines 14 and 15 with the same in-situ catalysts produce the cyclic amides 3a and 4a in up to 36.1percent ee.
The pyrolysis of (-)-(S)-nicotine: Racemization and decomposition
Clayton, Peter,Lu, Annhelen,Bishop, Louise
, p. 442 - 446 (2010)
The pyrolytic behaviour of (1)-(S)-nicotine in methanol was investigated using on-line pyrolysis GC/MS to establish whether racemization to the R(+) antipode occurs and to identify other products of pyrolysis. The conditions used included pyrolysing the sample for 15 seconds in an atmosphere of 9% oxygen in nitrogen (275ml/min total flow) across the temperature range of 200°C-1000°C. A chiral Cyclodex-B analytical column (30m × 0.25mm i.d. × 0.25 μm film thickness) was used to separate the enantiomers of nicotine, although the two enantiomer peaks were not baseline resolved. The results of the experiment shows that there is no increase in (+)-(R)-nicotine levels across a wide temperature range. This suggests that the elevated levels of (+)-R-nicotine observed in tobacco smoke (compared to tobacco leaf material) are not due to the pyrolytic auto-racemization of (1)-(S)-nicotine but are a result of more complex interactions between (-)-(S)-nicotine and other smoke components. The pyrolysis of isotopically labelled nicotine established that nicotine undergoes thermal decomposition to β-nicotyrine which in turn may decompose to other products. Chirality 22:442-446, 2010.
Asymmetric preparation method of nicotine
-
, (2021/10/27)
The invention relates to a preparation method of nicotine, in particular to a preparation method of nicotine from nicotinic acid ester as a starting material through five-step reaction. The method comprises the following specific steps: (1) a condensation reaction of the nicotinate with N - methylpyrrolidinone in a suitable reaction vessel, and adding a strong acid to react to obtain 4 - methylamino -1 - (3 - pyridine) - butanone hydrochloride after the reaction is finished. (2) The amino group is protected with a suitable amino protecting reagent to give an intermediate (4). (3) The chiral alcohol intermediate (5) is obtained by asymmetric reduction. (4) The chiral alcohol intermediate can be converted into nicotine through two-step conversion. The asymmetric reduction reaction of metal catalysis is a key step of the method, so that the chiral alcohol intermediate with high optical activity can be obtained, and nicotine can be prepared through two-step conversion. The nicotine preparation method provided by the invention is simple to operate, low in cost, mild in reaction condition and suitable for industrial production.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Nicotine via an Iodine-Mediated Hofmann-L?ffler Reaction
Del Castillo, Estefanía,Mu?iz, Kilian
, p. 705 - 708 (2019/02/07)
An iodine-mediated Hofmann-L?ffler reaction has been developed that enables the first enantioselective synthesis of nicotine based on this synthetic methodology. The effect of the free pyridine core on the involved electrophilic iodine reagents was explored in detail. The final synthesis proceeds under moderate reaction conditions that tolerate the free pyridine core. The same synthetic sequence is also applicable to a number of derivatives with higher substituted pyridine cores, including bipyridine derivatives.
Evaluation of the Edman degradation product of vancomycin bonded to core-shell particles as a new HPLC chiral stationary phase
Hellinghausen, Garrett,Lopez, Diego A.,Lee, Jauh T.,Wang, Yadi,Weatherly, Choyce A.,Portillo, Abiud E.,Berthod, Alain,Armstrong, Daniel W.
, p. 1067 - 1078 (2018/08/01)
A modified macrocyclic glycopeptide-based chiral stationary phase (CSP), prepared via Edman degradation of vancomycin, was evaluated as a chiral selector for the first time. Its applicability was compared with other macrocyclic glycopeptide-based CSPs: TeicoShell and VancoShell. In addition, another modified macrocyclic glycopeptide-based CSP, NicoShell, was further examined. Initial evaluation was focused on the complementary behavior with these glycopeptides. A screening procedure was used based on previous work for the enantiomeric separation of 50 chiral compounds including amino acids, pesticides, stimulants, and a variety of pharmaceuticals. Fast and efficient chiral separations resulted by using superficially porous (core-shell) particle supports. Overall, the vancomycin Edman degradation product (EDP) resembled TeicoShell with high enantioselectivity for acidic compounds in the polar ionic mode. The simultaneous enantiomeric separation of 5 racemic profens using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry with EDP was performed in approximately 3?minutes. Other highlights include simultaneous liquid chromatography separations of rac-amphetamine and rac-methamphetamine with VancoShell, rac-pseudoephedrine and rac-ephedrine with NicoShell, and rac-dichlorprop and rac-haloxyfop with TeicoShell.
