       TECHNICAL FIELD 
       [0002]    The following disclosure relates to a novel ligand, a chiral metal complex including the same, and a use of the chiral metal complex for analyzing chirality of a charged compound by  1 H NMR spectroscopy. The chiral metal complex of the present invention may be used as a chiral solvating agent to conveniently analyze an optical purity of charged compounds such as various amine derivatives, carboxylic acid derivatives, cyanohydrin derivatives, and charged metal complexes by  1 H NMR spectroscopy. 
       BACKGROUND 
       [0003]    Numerous compounds representing a physiological activity have chirality, and thus, are optically active, and it is known in the art that in many cases, two optical isomers in an enantiomeric relationship with each other represent different physiological activities from each other in a human body. In the past, these compounds were commercialized as a racemic mixture form, but nowadays, since a more selective activity is required, technique to separate two enantiomers forming a racemic mixture, and to measure an optical purity of an optically active compound is significantly needed. 
         [0004]    Such a difference of the physiological activity is shown as a pharmacological effect in chiral medicine, and thus, more important. Therefore, there is needed the development of technique to separate an optically pure optical isomer by an asymmetric synthesis or optical resolution, and to accurately measure an optical purity, in the course of the development of new medicines. 
         [0005]    The separation of the optical isomers includes all methods of separating racemates into pure optical isomers (optical resolution), and of classifying two optical isomers (measurement of optical purity). 
         [0006]    As the method for measuring the optical purity of the compound having chirality, chromatographic methods such as gas chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) have been developed. Particularly, the Proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H-NMR) spectroscopy has received recent attention, for the reasons that an NMR instrument is widespread, as well as an analyte may be recovered, and also since an experiment in a solution state is possible with a small amount of a sample, analysis of both solid and liquid samples is possible. In a method of measuring an optical purity using NMR, the optical purity may be determined by converting a chiral analyte to two diastereomeric compounds using a chiral derivatizing agent (CDA), a chiral lanthanide shift reagent (CLSR), a chiral solvating agent (CSA), or the like, and carrying out analysis through NMR. 
         [0007]    Among such methods, a chiral derivatizing agent method has disadvantages in that a derivatization process should be carried out once, and a functional group capable of being derivatized should be present, and a chiral lanthanide shift reagent method has a disadvantage in that a line broadening effect in a spectrum occurs. However, a chiral solvating agent has an advantage in that a non-destructive analysis is directly carried out in an NMR tube so that peak separation of a diastereomeric pairs may be seen, thereby conveniently showing an optical activity, and two diastereomers in an  1 H NMR spectrum represent different chemical shifts (δ) from each other, and the optical purity of a chiral compound may be determined using the difference between the integrated values thereof. 
         [0008]    Until now, though various chiral solvating agents have been developed, most of them may be used in the measurement of the optical purity of only specific chiral analytes, and thus, they are difficult to be applied to the measurement of the optical purity of a wider range of chiral analytes.

         [0073]    In still another general aspect, a use of a chiral metal complex of the Chemical Formula 2 is for analyzing chirality of a charged compound by spectroscopy, and more specifically, a chiral metal complex of the Chemical Formula 2 is used as a chiral solvating agent to provide a method of measuring an optical purity of various chiral compounds by  1 H NMR spectroscopy. 
         [0074]    In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the spectroscopy is nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and a method of measuring an optical purity of a chiral analyte using  1 H NMR is specifically as follows. 
         [0075]    An analyte for measuring the optical purity thereof is dissolved in an NMR solvent, and placed in an NMR tube to measure NMR, thereafter, the analyte and the chiral metal complex of the present invention (Chemical Formula 2) are mixed and dissolved in the same NMR solvent as the above, and placed in an NMR tube to measure NMR. As the chiral metal complex of the present invention is added, diastereomeric non-equilibrium appears, and the peak shift values of two isomers are shown differently, and the classified two peaks are integrated, thereby measuring the optical purity of the analyte. 
         [0076]    The analyte for measuring the optical purity thereof is a charged compound such as various amine derivatives, carboxylic acid derivatives, cyanohydrin derivatives and charged metal complexes, and includes even a commercial racemic drug which is difficult to be subjected to chromatography analysis due to high polarity and low solubility in an organic solvent. 
         [0077]    The NMR solvent which is an organic solvent capable of dissolving the analyte and the chiral metal complex may be used in an NMR analysis, and include a polar or a non-polar organic solvent substituted by deuterium. The polar solvent may be exemplified by CD 3 CN, CD 3 OD, (CD 3 ) 2 CO 3  (CD 3 ) 2 SO or D 2 O, and the non-polar solvent may be exemplified by CDCl 3 , C 6 D 6  or CD 2 Cl 2 . 
         [0078]    It was confirmed that as an added amount of the chiral metal complex of the present invention (Chemical Formula 2) is increased, the peak separation distance of the analyte is getting wider, and the chiral metal complex of the present invention (Chemical Formula 2) is added in 0.1 equivalent or more, preferably in 0.5 to 10 equivalents relative to the analyte, but even in the case of being added in a small amount relative to the analyte, NMR peaks are sufficiently separated. 
         [0079]    Traditionally only the non-polar solvent was used so that the range of the analyte was extremely limited, however, in the present invention, the polar solvent as well as the non-polar solvent may be used, and thus, even the analyte which has high polarity and was not able to be previously used as the analyte may be used.

         [0127]    It was confirmed that two enantiomers were separated only in the case of using the chiral solvating agent of the present invention (Example 11), as compared with the existing solvating agents (Comparative Examples 13 to 18). 
         [0128]    When the metal complex of the present invention H[Al-1b] is used as the chiral solvating agent, peak separation was observed in a polar protic solvent such as CD 3 OD or CD 3 CN, differently from the case of using the chiral solvating agents conventionally known in the art, from the Examples and Comparative Examples.

     Measurement of Optical Purities of 
       [0129]    Amine or Positively Charged Compounds by  1 H NMR Using the Metal Complex H[Al-1b] of the Present Invention as a Chiral Solvating Agent 
         [0130]    In order to confirm the chiral solvation degree of the metal complex of the present invention, a 1:1 mixture of the metal complex H[Al-1b] of the present invention and a chiral analyte was dissolved in an NMR solvent to 20 mM at 25° C., and then measurement of  1 H NMR spectrum was carried out. The results are illustrated in  FIG. 4 . 
         [0131]    As the chiral analyte, an amine compound or positively charged compounds were used, and as the amine compound, rac-1-phenylethylamine (a), rac-3,3-dimethylbutan-2-amine (b), rac-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine (c), rac-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-amine (d), rac-2-methylbutylamine (e), rac-2-phenyl-1-propanamine (f), rac-2-methylbutan-1-amine (g), 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-methylpentan-1-amine (h), rac-2-methylpiperidine (i), 3-methylpiperidine (j), rac-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (k), rac-N,N-dimethyl-1-phenylethylamine (l), DL-alanine (m), DL-phenylalanine (n), DL-valinol (o), DL-alaninol (p), and N-methyl-1-(2-(methylamino)naphthalen-1-yl)naphthalen-2-amine (q) were used, as the positively charged compound, [Fe(dmbp) 3 ] +2  (dmbp=4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine) was used, and as the NMR solvent, CD 3 OD(a-d, i-n), CD 3 CN(e-h, o-q) or CDCl 3  (r) was used.

     Measurement of Optical Purities of Carboxylic Acid Compounds by  1 H NMR Using the Metal Complex Na[Al-1b] of the Present Invention as a Chiral Solvating Agent 
       [0132]    In order to confirm the chiral solvation degree of the metal complex of the present invention, a 1:1 mixture of the metal complex Na[Al-1b] of the present invention and a carboxylic acid compound as a chiral analyte was dissolved in an NMR solvent to 20 mM at 25° C., and then measurement of  1 H NMR spectrum was carried out. The results are illustrated in  FIG. 5 . 
         [0133]    As the carboxylic acid compound, rac-2-Phenylpropionic acid (a), rac-2-methoxy-2-phenylacetic acid (b), rac-2-bromopropionic acid (c), rac-2-bromo-3-methylbutanoic acid (d), rac-2-methylbutanoic acid (e), rac-3-phenylbutanoic acid (f), rac-mandelic acid (g), rac-3-chlorophenyl-2-hydroxyacetic acid (h), rac-2-(methylsulfinyl)benzoic acid (i), and rac-2-hydroxy-2-phenylacetonitrile (j) were used, and as the NMR solvent, CDCl 3  (a-f), CD 3 CN (g, h, j) or CD 3 OD (i) was used.

     Measurement of Optical Purities of Commercial Drugs by  1 H NMR Using the Metal Complex M[Al-1b] (M=H +  or Na) of the Present Invention as a Chiral Solvating Agent 
       [0134]    In order to confirm the chiral solvation degree of the metal complex of the present invention, a 1:1 mixture of the metal complex M[Al-1b] (M=H +  or Na) of the present invention and a commercial drug as a chiral analyte was dissolved in an NMR solvent to 20 mM at 25° C., and then measurement of  1 H NMR spectrum was carried out. The results are illustrated in  FIG. 6 . 
         [0135]    The commercial drugs are difficult to be subjected to chromatography analysis due to high polarity and low solubility in an organic solvent, and the commercial racemic drugs were used as the chiral analyte, and their structures are as follows: 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0136]    For the commercial drugs a-d, H[Al-1b] was used as the chiral solvating agent, and for the commercial drugs e-I, Na[Al-1b] was used as the chiral solvating agent. In addition, as the NMR solvent, CD 3 CN (a-c, h), CDCl 3  (e, f), C 6 D 6  (d, i) or CD 3 OD (g) was used. 
         [0137]    It is seen from the above Examples that the chirality of various chiral compounds such as various amine derivatives, carboxylic acid derivatives, cyanohydrin derivatives, charged metal complexes, and commercial racemic drugs may be analyzed by  1 H NMR, in the case of using the metal complex of the present invention as the chiral solvating agent. 
         [0138]    The chiral metal complex of the present invention is a chiral octahedral complex having a A or A configuration at a metal center due to the binding of the ligand of the Chemical formula 1, and it is possible to stereoselectively control Δ or Λ chirality at the metal center. 
         [0139]    Further, the chiral metal complex of the present invention may be used as a highly efficient and practical chiral solvating agent in the measurement of the optical purity of all compounds charged with chiral charge which was regarded as being difficult to be subjected to chromatography analysis, such as a commercial racemic drug which is difficult to be subjected to chromatography analysis due to high polarity and low solubility in an organic solvent. Traditionally only the non-polar solvent was used so that the range of the analyte was extremely limited, however, in the present invention, the chiral metal complex is used as the chiral solvating agent, thereby allowing the polar solvent as well as the non-polar solvent to be used, and thus, even the analyte which has high polarity and was not able to be previously used as the analyte may be used. 
         [0140]    Further, the chiral metal complex of the present invention may show sufficient peak separation to measure an optical purity in a polar solvent for measuring  1 H NMR with only a sub-stoichiometric amount, and extend the stereocenter of the analyte from a charged functional group to δ position. 
         [0141]    Accordingly, the chiral metal complex of the present invention may be used as a widely used chiral solvating agent for charged chiral compounds.
