Process for purifying glycopeptide phosphonate derivatives
View Patent ↗Disclosed are methods of purifying glycopeptides that are substituted with one or more substituents each comprising one or more phosphono groups that are useful as antibacterial agents. The methods include contacting a solution of the glycopeptide derivatives with a polystyrene-containing resin, eluting the resin with an aqueous solution, and isolating the purified glycopeptide derivative.
1. A process for purifying a compound of the formula:
or a salt thereof; the process comprising eluting the compound or a salt thereof from a polystyrene divinyl benzene resin using an acidified aqueous solution containing a polar organic solvent.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polystyrene divinyl benzene resin has a pore size of from about 50 Å to about 1000 Å.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polystyrene divinyl benzene resin has a particle bead size in the range of between about 20 μm to about 800 μm.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polar organic solvent is ethanol.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polar organic solvent is acetonitrile.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the acidified aqueous solution contains acetic acid.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the acidified aqueous solution contains hydrochloric acid.
