A various ${\alpha}$-arylmethylpropionic acids(profen) have been widely used as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for the relief of acute and chronic rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, as well as for other connective tissue disorders and pains. Example is fenoprofen, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, and naproxen. All are chiral and, except for naproxen and ibuprofen, are marketed in racemic form. Enantioseparations of profens have been of considerable interest becaus their anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects have been attirbuted almost exclusively to their (S)-enantiomer. (omitted)

It has been well known for the stereoselectivity in pharmacodynamic effects of many xenobiotics including therapeutic agents, which have lead to the development of enantiomer drugs. Compared to pharmacodynamic stereoselectivity, stereoselective pharmacokinetics of each enantiomer has not been seriously considered in the development of enantiomer drugs although many reports have been demonstrated the stereoselective absorption and metabolism of racemic drug (e.g verapamil).

Reductases convert some achiral ketone compounds into chiral alcohols, which are important materials for the synthesis of chiral drugs. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae reductase YOR120W converts ethyl-4-chloro-3-oxobutanoate (ECOB) enantioselectively into (R)-ethyl-4-chloro-3-hydroxybutanoate ((R)-ECHB), an intermediate of a pharmaceutical. As YOR120W requires NADPH as a cofactor for the reduction reaction, a cofactor recycling system using Bacillus subtilis glucose dehydrogenase was employed. Using this coupling reaction system, 100 mM ECOB was converted to (R)-ECHB. A homology modeling and site-directed mutagenesis experiment were performed to determine the NADPH-binding site of YOR120W. Four residues (Q29, K264, N267, and R270) were suggested by homology and docking modeling to interact directly with 2'-phosphate of NADPH. Among them, two positively charged residues (K264 and R270) were experimentally demonstrated to be necessary for NADPH 2'-phosphate binding. A mutant enzyme (Q29E) showed an enhanced enantiomeric excess value compared with that of the wild-type enzyme.

In the group of commonly prescribed β-blocker drugs, one of the enantiomers is generally relatively more active than the others. This study aims to develop a technique for the chiral analysis of select β-blockers based on proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectrometry. (S)-2-Tert-butyl-2-methyl-1,3-benzodioxole-4-carboxylic acid ((S)-TBMB) was synthesized and utilized as a chiral derivatizing agent. Pure β-blocker enantiomers were isolated from racemates by semi-preparative liquid chromatography prior to derivatization. The reaction time and concentration of (S)-TBMB were controlled to improve the derivatization procedure. No racemization was found during the analysis. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis was also performed for comparative purposes. High agreement between the NMR and HPLC methods was achieved in the determination of (R)-metoprolol in a standard solution of the (S) isomer.

A new liquid chromatographic chiral stationary phase based on (2S,3S)-O,O'-bis-(10-undecenoyl)-N,N'-bis-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)-2,3-diamino-1,4-butandiol was prepared starting from (2R,3R)-1,4-bis(benzyloxy)-2,3-butanediol. The new chiral stationary phase was applied to the resolution of racemic anilide derivatives of N-acetyl-a-amino acids, 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol and 3,3'-diaryl-1,1'-bi-2-naphthols. The CSP was also applied to the resolution of some chiral drugs including a diuretic, bendroflumethiazide, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents such naproxen and alminoprofen. In every case, the chiral recognition efficiency of the new CSP was quite excellent.

This study was performed to investigate the current regulatory guidances of safety and efficacy evaluation for the development and approval of stereoisomeric drugs in US, EU, Canada and Japan. The important categories for the development of stereoisomeric drugs are classified as 1) development of a single enantiomer as a new active substance 2) development of a racemate as a new active substance 3) development of a new single enantiomer from an approved racemate. The regulatory documents adopted in major countries for the safety and efficacy evaluation of stereoisomeric drugs were investigated with the focus on three major categories mentioned above. For the regulatory approval of stereoisomeric drugs in Korea, it is expected that the investigated results obtained in this study will be useful for the basic materials to ensure the safety and efficacy of stereoisomeric drugs as well as the stereochemical issues in chiral drug development in domestic pharmaceutical company.

A thermostable esterase from the hyper thermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus was partially purified 590-fold with $16.2\%$ recovery. The partially purified esterase had a specific activity of $29.5\;{\mu}mol\;min^{-1}mg^{-1}$ when the enzyme activity was determined using p-nitrophenyl butyrate as a substrate. The apparent molecular weight was about 100 kDa, while the optimum temperature and pH for esterase were $75^{\circ}C$ and 8.0, respectively. The enzyme showed high thermal stability and solvent tolerance in comparison to its mesophilic counterpart. The enzyme also showed chiral resolution activity for (S)-ibuprofen, indicating that S. solfataricus esterase can be used for the production of commercially important chiral drugs.

In order to improve physico-chemical properties and to enhance stability of drugs, amino acid salt has been widely adoptd in pharmaceutical synthesis. Acetylsalicylic acid lysinate is one of the widely used analgesics and it is a good example of t5his synthesis. In the case of bacetylsalicylic acid lysinate synthesis, racemization of natrually occurred lysine is esential because the racemic lysine salt of the drug shows better yield, crystallinity and dryness than that of the L-lysine salt. To esatablish a simple, practical and economical process for L-lysine racemization, L-lysine treatments with phosphoric acid and with acetic acid were compared and the optimum conditions for its process and derivatization were investigated by chiral separation methods using GC_MS spectroscopy.
