Abstract
pH-biased isoelectric trapping separations are hindered by the lack of suitable isoelectric buffers with pI values in the 5.8 < pI range. Two generic approaches are described here for the cost-effective synthesis of a family of diamino sulfate buffers that have high buffering capacities in their isoelectric state: the first approach relies on the sulfation of existing, commercially available diamino alcohol intermediates, the second approach calls for the synthesis of diamino alcohols from epichlorohydrin and widely available secondary amines, and subsequent sulfation of the new diamino alcohol. The diamino sulfate buffers are recovered in isoelectric state, in high purity. Four members of the family having pI values in the 5.8 < pI < 8.9 range have been synthesized, analytically characterized by capillary electrophoresis (CE), electrospray ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (ESI-TOF-MS), 1-D and 2-D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. All four diamino sulfates have been successfully used as pH biasers in the receiving stream in preparative-scale pH-biased isoelectric trapping protein separations.
