Rapid Electrochemical Detection of Propranolol and Metoprolol in Pharmaceutical Preparations Using Stabilized Lipid Films

This work reports a technique for the rapid electrochemical detection of propranolol and metoprolol in pharmaceutical preparations using stabilized lipid films. Microporous filters composed of glass fibers (nominal pore sizes 0.7 and 1.0 μm) were used as supports for the formation and stabilization of these devices. The lipid film is formed on the filter by polymerization prior to its use. This stabilized after storage in air. Lipid films composed of phosphatidylcholine were used for the detection of propranolol and metoprolol in pharmaceutical preparations. The stabilized lipid membranes provided artificial ion gating events in the form of transient signals within about 60 and 34 s after exposure of the membranes to propranolol and metoprolol, respectively. The magnitude of the transient current signal was related to the concentration of propranolol and metoprolol in bulk solution in the micromolar range. The mechanism of signal generation was investigated by differential scanning calorimetric studies. These studies revealed that the adsorption of the drug is through the hydrophobic aryl terminal of the compound, whereas the hydrophilic groups were directed towards the electrolyte solution. This adsorption caused a rapid alteration of the electrochemical double layer of the lipid film (i.e., capacitance changes) that resulted in the transient ion current signal. The present technique was used for the rapid detection of propranolol and metoprolol in pharmaceutical preparations and can function for repetitive uses after storage in air. Future research is targeted to the determination of these chemicals in human biofluids such as urine of athletes.

On the interpretation of fluorescence anisotropy decays from probe molecules in lipid vesicle systems

Measurements of fluorescence depolarization decays are widely used to obtain information about the molecular order and rotational dynamics of fluorescent probe molecules in membrane systems. This information is obtained by least-squares fits of the experimental data to the predictions of physical models for motion. Here we present a critical review of the ways and means of the data analysis and address the question how and why totally different models such as Brownian rotational diffusion and wobble-in-cone provide such convincing fits to the fluorescence anistropy decay curves. We show that while these models are useful for investigating the general trends in the behavior of the probe molecules, they fail to describe the underlying motional processes. We propose to remedy this situation with a model in which the probe molecules undergo fast, though restricted local motions within a slowly rotating cage in the lipid bilayer structure. The cage may be envisaged as a free volume cavity between the lipid molecules, so that its position and orientation change with the internal conformational motions of the lipid chains. This approach may be considered to be a synthesis of the wobble-in-cone and Brownian rotational diffusion models. Importantly, this compound motion model appears to provide a consistent picture of fluorescent probe behavior in both oriented lipid bilayers and lipid vesicle systems.

Hydration and Lyotropic Melting of Amphiphilic Molecules: A Thermodynamic Study Using Humidity Titration Calorimetry

The hydration of the lipid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC) and of the cationic detergent dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) has been studied by means of isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), gravimetry, and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. During the experiments films of the amphiphiles are perfused by an inert gas of variable relative humidity. The measurement of adsorption heats using ITC represents a new adaptation of adsorption calorimetry which has been called the humidity titration technique. This method yields the partial molar enthalpy of water upon adsorption. It is found to be endothermic with respect to the molar enthalpy of water on condensation for the water molecules which interact directly with the headgroups of POPC and DTAB. Consequently, the spontaneous hydration of the amphiphiles is entropy driven in an aqueous environment. IR spectroscopy shows that hydration is accompanied by the increase in the conformational and/or motional freedom of the amphiphilic molecules upon water binding. In particular, a lyotropic chain melting transition is induced at a certain characteristic relative humidity. This event is paralleled by the adsorption of water. The corresponding exothermic adsorption heat is consumed completely (POPC) or partially (DTAB) by the hydrocarbon chains upon melting. Differential scanning calorimetry was used as an independent method to determine transition enthalpies of the amphiphiles at a definite hydration degree. Water binding onto the headgroups is discussed in terms of hydrogen bonding and polar interactions. The adsorption isotherms yield a number of 2.6 tightly bound water molecules per POPC and DTAB molecule.     

Allylic Peroxidations with Bis(2‐pyridylimino)isoindolato‐Cobalt and ‐Iron Complexes

Several novel substituted bis(2‐pyridylimino)isoindolato (BPI) cobalt(II) and iron(II) complexes [M(BPI)(OAc)(H₂O)] (M = Co: 1 ‐ 6, Fe: 7) have been synthesized by reaction of bis(2‐pyridylimino)isoindole derivatives with the corresponding metal(II) acetates. Reaction of 1‐6 with 1.5 ‐ 2 molar equivalents of t‐BuOOH gave the corresponding alkylperoxocobalt(III) complexes [Co(BPI)(OAc)(OOtBu)] (10 ‐ 15). Using an aqueous solution of t‐BuOOH (70 %), cyclohexene was selectively catalytically oxidized to the dialkylperoxide cyclohex‐2‐ene‐1‐t‐butylperoxide.
