Összefoglaló szövege

Introduction: With the growing emphasis on environmentally friendly analytical
practices, green approaches to chiral separation—particularly high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) —have gained increasing attention as essential tools for determining the enantiomeric composition of chiral pharmaceutical compounds.

Aims: To develop a green and efficient HPLC method for the enantioseparation of
crizotinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting anaplastic lymphoma kinase.

Methods: The enantioselective performance of seven polysaccharide-based chiral
stationary phases was evaluated, including three amylose-derived (Lux Amylose-1, Lux
i-Amylose-1, Lux Amylose-2) and four cellulose-derived columns (Lux Cellulose-1, Lux
Cellulose-2, Lux Cellulose-3, and Lux Cellulose-4), under both polar organic and
reversed-phase modes.

Results: Among these, Lux Cellulose-3, which incorporates cellulose tris(4-methylbenzoate) as the chiral selector, demonstrated the best resolution using an
ethanol–water mixture with 0.1% diethylamine as the mobile phase. Chromatographic
parameters (mobile phase composition, flow rate, and temperature) were optimized using a full factorial screening design. Under optimal conditions (Lux Cellulose-3 column, ethanol/water/diethylamine 92/8/0.1 v/v/v, 0.5 mL/min flow rate at 40 °C column temperature), baseline enantioseparation was achieved. The method was validated in accordance with current guidelines. The greenness of the proposed method was confirmed through Analytical Eco-Scale, Complex GAPI, and AGREE metrics, showing superior environmental performance compared to a previously published method.

Conclusion: These findings highlight the method's reduced solvent hazards and waste generation, supporting its classification as a green analytical procedure.

Fundings: This work was funded by the National Research, Development, and Innovation Office, Hungary (grant: NKFIH FK 146930).
