Simple, Efficient FLASH Optimization Jeff Horsman

Outline

• Factors influencing FLASH purification • Optimizing isocratic purification • Optimizing gradient purification

Factors Influencing FLASH Purification

• Purity goals • Yield goals

Influencing Purification Goals • TLC – Surface chemistry – Resolution (DCV) – Elution solvents

• Sample solvent • Impurities – Excess starting materials – Synthetic by-products

• Elution conditions – Isocratic – Gradient

Optimizing Isocratic Purification Use TLC to determine: • Optimal solvent conditions – Solvent selectivity – Solvent strength

• Sample load factors – Resolution (CV) – The CV / Rf relationship – Sample mass effects

• Sample load – Discovery – scale – Development – scale – Use Biotage loading chart

Determining Loading Capacity • Compound resolution key to good loading capacity • TLC data measured in Rf (retention factor) - Rf not a useful term

• Rf values are inversely proportional to FLASH column volumes (CV)

Rf = 1/CV or CV = 1/Rf • Resolution (CV) determines load for any size cartridge: CV = CV1 - CV2 • FLASH separations and loading capacity governed by CV, not Rf

• Lower Rf values mean larger CV and CV values • Equal changes in Rf (Rf) do not translate to equal changes in CV (CV) • Optimal Rf range(0.15 – 0.35) – For compound of interest with isocratic elution – Maximum resolution – Maximum loading capacity – Minimal solvent consumption

Why use Column Volumes • Easy scale-up – Optimization work on TLC – Quick and cost effective – Test many solvent systems at the same time – Direct scale up to any cartridge size

– Direct relationship between cartridge sizes – Using CV is independent of flowrate – Scale up based on flowrate requires column diameter ratio calculations

Sample Load Factors • Resolution (CV) – Larger CV = larger loads

• Mass ratios – Beware of overload – Total loadable mass based on amount of crude, not amount of product

• Required purity – Higher purity requirements = lower loads, lower yields

• Required yield – Higher yield requirements = lower purity

• Cartridge size – Larger cartridges = larger loads

Optimizing Gradient Purification

TLC Scouting TLC: Use binary solvent mixture to develop TLC method – Rf~ 0.4 for target component

FLASH Gradient: Initial %B - Use ¼ of the polar solvent composition from TLC 1CV Final %B – Twice polar concentration of TLC system over 10 CV, hold 2 CV

• Generic gradient designed to elute compound of interest last • Use steeper gradient to elute more retained

Optimizing Gradient Purification • Always TLC Sample Biotage Algorithms set gradient according to the following rules – Measure Rf – Try for compound of interest Rf = 0.4 – Gradient conditions – Initial = ¼ polar solvent concentration from TLC – Final = Twice polar solvent concentration from TLC – Segment 1 = 1 CV @ initial conditions – Segment 2 = 10 CV, Initial to Final conditions – Segment 3 = 2 CV @ final conditions – Segment 4 = 3CV Final conditions to 100% polar solvent (may not be required)

• Difficult samples are no problem

TLC to Gradient Example • TLC 80:20 Hexane:Ethylacetate (20% EtOAc) – Segment 1, – Segment 2, 10CV’s – Segment 3, – Segment 4, over 3CV’s

Initial Segment 5% EtOAc Increase from 5% to 40% EtOAc over Hold for 2CV’s at 40% EtOAc If required increase to 100% EtOAc

• Above example is for initial work – If the same or similar sample is run again vary slightly based on earlier separation – Remove segment 3 or 4 if not required – Use 8CV’s instead of 10 for main gradient

FLASH Optimization Summary • Optimize solvent systems for maximum separation performance – Adjust selectivity first – Adjust solvent strength for Rf between 0.15 0.35 (CV = 6 - 3) for isocratic elution – Adjust solvent strength for Rf = 0.4 (CV = 2.5) for gradient elution

• Calculate CV and CV from Rf data • Use Biotage loading charts for initial load
