✦ Synopsis
The diastereomeric (-)-dimenthoxyacetate derivatives of (t)-tram-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene were efficiently resolved by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) on silica gel. Treatment with methanolic ammonia under mild conditions removed the menthoxyacetate groups to furnish the optically pure (+) and (-) enantiomers of the trans-dihydrodiol.
Epoxidation of each of the latter with m-chloroperbenzoic acid gave the corresponding (-) and (+) antidiolepoxides. The speed and efficiency of resolution of these relatively sensitive compounds by HPLC demonstrates the potential utility of this technique for resolution of all types of carcinogen-derived arene dihydrodiols.
