Determinations of the inclusion complex between gossypol and beta-cyclodextrin

Features of the inclusion complex between gossypol (Gos) and beta-cyclodextrin (CD), such as its aqueous solubility, association constant, characteristics in the solid state and crystalline morphology, as well as the stoichiometry of this complex have been determined.

The thermodynamics associated with the complex formation between dulcin and beta-cyclodextrin in aqueous solution has been studied. The obtained value of DeltaG(0) = -13.7 kJ/mole at 21 degrees , together with DeltaH(0) = -33.6 +/- 2.3 kJ/mole and DeltaS(0) = -67.2 +/-8.3 Jmole(-1) K(-1) indicate that dulcin has a very marked tendency to associate with beta-cyclodextrin in water.

An antitumor agent of beta-cyclodextrin-modified titanocene complex: synthesis and characterization

The complex of a derivative of beta-cyclodextrin, that is mono[6-deoxy-6-(2-butenedinitrile-2,3-dimercapto sodium salt)]-beta-cyclodextrin (6-mnt-beta-CD), with titanocene (titanocene di[mono[6-deoxy-6-(2-butenedinitrile-2,3-dimercapto)]-beta-cyclodextrin], Cp2Ti[6-mnt-beta-CD]2) has been synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, UV spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetry, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy.

Noncovalent binding of sensitizers for lanthanide(III) luminescence in an EDTA-bis(beta-cyclodextrin) ligand

EDTA-linked beta-cyclodextrin dimer 3 was synthesized from EDTA bis(anhydride) 1 and mono(propylamino)-appended beta-cyclodextrin 2. p-tert-butylbenzoate 5, bound by the beta-cyclodextrin cavities of 3 with an association constant of 10(4) M(-1) in water, acts as a sensitizer for the Eu(III) and Tb(III) complexes of 3. Luminescence spectroscopy, microcalorimetry, and Gd(III)-induced NMR relaxation rate measurements prove that 3 forms a 1:2 complex with 5 and that one of the beta-cyclodextrin-bound sensitizers coordinates to the EDTA-encapsulated Ln(III) ion. The Eu(III) complex of 3 forms strong 1:1 complexes (K approximately 10(7) M(-1)) with bis(propylamido adamantyl)-functionalized biphenyl sensitizers 7 and 8 in water. Both beta-cyclodextrins of 3 are involved in the binding of these guests. The amide functionality adjacent to the biphenyl unit in 7 and 8 coordinates to the EDTA-encapsulated Ln(III) ion. For these biphenyl-based antennae both binding to beta-cyclodextrin and coordination to the Ln(III) center are crucial for efficient sensitization.

Thermal behaviour, biological activity and conformational study of a [methoprene/beta-cyclodextrin] complex in a smoke generating formulation

Methoprene, an insect growth regulator, was complexed with beta-cyclodextrin, yielding a stable inclusion complex. TGA, X-ray powder diffraction and conformational analysis have been used to confirm the nature of this inclusion complex. The interaction between methoprene and beta-cyclodextrin was investigated by means of Molecular Mechanics. The results account for the formation of a 1:1 inclusion complex stabilised by Van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. The [methoprene-beta-cyclodextrin] complex included in smoke generating formulations and protected from thermal decomposition by the foaming agent azodicarbonamide was shown to be stable enough to release methoprene in fumes with good yields. The improved stabilty of the methoprene complex showed a correlation with increased biological activity against Musca domestica.     

Silica-gadolinium particles loaded with gossypol for simultaneous therapeutic effect and MRI contrast enhancement

Gossypol is a polyphenolic compound with a wide range of therapeutic properties. The incorporation of gossypol in a porous gadolinium-silica matrix was considered for both therapeutic effect and contrast in magnetic resonance imaging. The purpose of the study was to evaluate gossypol loading in silica-gadolinium particles prepared at different pH values, as a first step in designing new theranostic (therapeutic and diagnostic) compounds. Silica-gadolinium particles of 98SiO₂·2Gd₂O₃ (mol%) composition were prepared following the sol–gel route. The structure of the particles and their loading with gossypol were investigated by X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis, differential thermal analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. All results confirmed the highest loading of gossypol on the surface of the particles synthesised at lower pH. The potential application in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of silica-gadolinium particles loaded with gossypol was tested through MRI measurements that showed improved contrast properties compared with the pristine silica-gadolinium particles.

The inclusion compounds of beta-cyclodextrin with 4-substituted benzoic acid and benzaldehyde drugs studied by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Inclusion compounds of some 4-substituted benzoic acid and benzaldehyde drugs with beta-cyclodextrin were prepared and characterized by IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The thermal stability and chemical stability of these drugs were strikingly improved after inclusion. The effect of inclusion on the chemical-shifts of protons H-3 and H-5 in the NMR spectroscopy is discussed. Using the relative shift theory, the preferred inclusion mode was proposed. The center of the aromatic ring of the drug molecule was considered to be located in the cavity 1.2 A inside from the H-5 plane of beta-cyclodextrin.     

Inorganic nanocrystal self-assembly via the inclusion interaction of beta-cyclodextrins: toward 3D spherical magnetite

Synthesis and three-dimensional (3D) assembly of magnetite nanocrystals were realized by a one-pot procedure, in which Fe(acac)3 (acac = acetylacetonate) was partly reduced by hydrazine accompanied with ethylene glycol and spontaneously assembled into spherical nanostructures in the presence of surfactants including beta-cyclodextrin, oleic acid, and oleylamine. The size of the assembled spheres can coarsely be controlled in a limited range (100 nm to 2 microm) by changing the reaction temperature and the concentration of beta-cyclodextrin. X-ray diffraction and far Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were employed to clarify the structures of magnetite in the assembled spheres. Electron diffraction pattern in a selected-area exhibits a high-crystallinity characteristic of cubic structure magnetite. We found that the formation of spherical magnetite aggregates highly depends on the presence of beta-cyclodextrin, while oleic acid and oleylamine improve the morphology of individual magnetite nanoparticles in the assembled spheres. In addition, the thermal gravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis were applied to determine the content of magnetite in the products. Magnetic properties were also studied by using a superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer.     

Characterization of silk fibroin based films loaded with rutin–β-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes

In this study, cyclodextrin inclusion complexes with rutin were prepared via co-precipitation method. Stability constant and solubility energy of beta-cyclodextrin complex were calculated as 262 M^?1 and 1,737 kJ mol^?1, respectively. Aqueous solubility of rutin was increased with inclusion complex of beta-cyclodextrin. The effect of temperature on both aqueous solubility of free rutin, and its inclusion complex was also studied. Characterization of cyclodextrin complexes were conducted with UV–Vis spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, differential scanning calorimetry, thermal gravimetric analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Characterization results supported formation of inclusion complexes. Dissolution profiles of rutin, physical mixture and inclusion complex of rutin were observed at 37 °C. Dissolution results proved the effect of cyclodextrin addition on solubility rate of rutin. After loading rutin and its complexes into silk fibroin based films, release tests were performed at 37 °C in neutral pH conditions for 24 h. Most of the rutin were released from silk fibroin films within the first 5 h and the rest of it was released slowly (sustained release). Electron microscope analyses showed that films had homogenous and dense morphologies. These results revealed that silk fibroin is useful for preparing bioactive films loaded with natural compounds and for modifying their release behaviour at physiological conditions.     

Thermodynamics of molecular recognition of bile salts by 3,6'-(oligoethylenediamino-bridged) beta-cyclodextrin dimers

The molecular recognition behaviors of some representative bile salts by three 3,6'-bridged beta-cyclodextrin dimers with oligo(ethylenediamino) linkers in different lengths, i.e. 3,6'-(ethylenediamino-bridged) beta-cyclodextrin dimer (1), 3,6'-(diethylenetriamino-bridged) beta-cyclodextrin dimer (2), and 3,6'-(triethylenetetraamino-bridged) beta-cyclodextrin dimer (3), were investigated in aqueous phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.20) at 25 degrees C by means of 2D NMR spectroscopy and isothermal titration microcalorimetry. Owing to the cooperative host-linker-guest binding mode between host and guest, these 3,6'-bridged beta-cyclodextrin dimers showed significantly enhanced binding abilities and molecular selectivities as compared with native beta-cyclodextrin through the simultaneous contributions of hydrophobic, hydrogen bond, and electrostatic interactions. Thermodynamically, the inclusion complexations of these beta-cyclodextrin dimers with bile salts were mainly driven by large enthalpic gain, accompanied by slight to moderate entropic loss. An enthalpy-entropy compensation analysis demonstrated that these beta-cyclodextrin dimers experienced large conformational changes and extensive desolvation effect upon inclusion complexation with guest molecules.     

Complexes of Schiff base of gossypol with n-butylamine and some monovalent or bivalent cations studied by ESI MS, NMR, FT-IR as well as PM5 semiempirical methods

A Schiff base of gossypol with n-butylamine [GSBN] was shown to be capable of complexation of 2H⁺, Li⁺, Ca²⁺ and Ba²⁺ cations. This process of complex formation was studied by ESI mass spectrometry, ¹H and ¹³C NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy as well as by PM5 semiempirical method. It was found that gossypol Schiff base can form a 1:2 complex with H⁺ and 1:1 complexes with Li⁺, Ca²⁺ and Ba²⁺ cations. In all complexes the Schiff base of gossypol with metal cations exists in enamine-enamine tautomer, whereas in the 1:2 complex with H⁺ the imine-imine tautomer was found. The metal cations are coordinated through oxygen atoms of the O₁H(O₁,H) hydroxyl groups and a lone pair of an N-atom. The structures of these complexes were calculated by PM5 semiempirical method and discussed.     

Spectroscopic investigations and crystal structure from synchrotron powder data of the inclusion complex of beta-cyclodextrin with atenolol

Inclusion complexes of atenolol with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) in aqueous solution have been investigated with (1)H NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The stoichiometry of this inclusion complex was established to be equimolar (1:1) and its stability constant was determined by UV-vis spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the beta-CD-atenolol (1:1) inclusion compound has been solved from synchrotron powder diffraction data using direct-space search techniques. The crystal structure model and (1)H NMR data are in good agreement and, with support of Hyperchem MM+ molecular dynamics results, suggest which protons are likely to be involved in the inclusion process that leads to the supramolecular architecture of this guest-host complex.     

Synthesis of novel bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s and metallobridged bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s with 2,2'-diselenobis(benzoyl) tethers and their molecular multiple recognition with model substrates

To investigate quantitatively the cooperative binding ability of beta-cyclodextrin dimers, a series of bridged bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s with 2,2'-diselenobis(benzoyl) spacer connected by different lengths of oligo(ethylenediamine)s (2-5) and their platinum(IV) complexes (6-9) have been synthesized and their inclusion complexation behavior with selected substrates, such as Acridine Red, Neutral Red, Brilliant Green, Rhodamine B, ammonium 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate, and 6-p-toluidino-2-naphthalenesulfonic acid, were investigated by means of ultraviolet, fluorescence, fluorescence lifetime, circular dichroism, and 2D-NMR spectroscopy. The spectral titrations have been performed in aqueous phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.20) at 25 degrees C to give the complex stability constants (K(S)) and Gibbs free energy changes (-DeltaG degrees ) for the inclusion complexation of hosts 2-9 with organic dyes and other thermodynamic parameters (DeltaH degrees and TDeltaS degrees ) for the inclusion complexation of 2-5with fluorescent dyes ANS and TNS. The results obtained indicate that beta-cyclodextrin dimers 2-5 can coordinate with one or two platinum(IV) ions to form 1:1 or 1:2 stoichiometry metallobridged bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s. As compared with parent beta-cyclodextrin (1) and bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s 2-5, metallobridged bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s 6-9 can further switch the original molecular binding ability through the coordinating metal to orientate two beta-cyclodextrin cavities and an additional binding site upon the inclusion complexation with model substrates, giving the enhanced binding constants K(S) for both ANS and TNS. The tether length between two cyclodextrin units plays a crucial role in the molecular recognition with guest dyes. The binding constants for TNS decrease linearly with an increase in the tether length of dimeric beta-cyclodextrins. The Gibbs free energy change (-DeltaG degrees ) for the unit increment per ethylene is 0.32 kJ.mol(-)(1) for TNS. Thermodynamically, the higher complex stabilities of both ANS and TNS upon the inclusion complexation with 2-5 are mainly contributed to the favorable enthalpic gain (-DeltaH degrees ) by the cooperative binding of one guest molecule in the closely located two beta-cyclodextrin cavities as compared with parent beta-cyclodextrin. The molecular binding ability and selectivity of organic dyes by hosts 1-9 are discussed from the viewpoints of the multiple recognition mechanism and the size/shape-fitting relationship between host and guest.     

Resonance Rayleigh scattering technology as a new method for the determination of the inclusion constant of beta-cyclodextrin

The interaction of procaine hydrochloride and beta-cyclodextrin in aqueous solution was studied using resonance Rayleigh scattering technology. The molar ratio of the inclusion complex was 1:1 established by spectrophotometry. The resonance Rayleigh scattering technology was first applied in the determination of the beta-cyclodextrin inclusion constant. The inclusion constant of procaine hydrochloride beta-cyclodextrin complex Kf is 1.23 x 10(2) and 1.27 x 10(2) l mol(-1) for method I and 1.15 x 10(2) and 1.21 x 10(2) l mol(-1) for method II. These determination results were in correspondence with the results of the spectrophotometric and fluorescence methods. Therefore, the resonance Rayleigh scattering method can be used as a new technology for the determination of the inclusion constant.     

Dendritic galactosides based on a beta-cyclodextrin core for the construction of site-specific molecular delivery systems: synthesis and molecular recognition studies

In order to evaluate the ability of multivalent glycosides based on a beta-cyclodextrin core as site-specific molecular carriers, a study on both the inclusion complexation behaviour and lectin binding affinity of branched and hyperbranched beta-cyclodextrins is presented. A series of cluster galactosides constructed on beta-cyclodextrin scaffolds containing seven 1-thio-beta-lactose or beta-lactosylamine bound to the macrocyclic core through different spacer arms were synthesised. In addition, the first synthesis of three first-order dendrimers based on a beta-cyclodextrin core containing fourteen 1-thio-beta-D-galactose, 1-thio-beta-lactose and 1-thio-beta-melibiose residues was performed. Calorimetric titrations performed at 25 degrees C in buffered aqueous solution (pH 7.4) gave the affinity constants and the thermodynamic parameters for the complex formation of these beta-cyclodextrin derivatives with guests sodium 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS) and 2-naphthalenesulfonate, and lectin from peanut (Arachis hypogaea) (PNA). The persubstitution of the primary face of the beta-cyclodextrin with saccharides led to a slight increase of the binding constant values for the inclusion complexation with ANS relative to the native beta-cyclodextrin. However, the increase of the steric congestion due to the presence of the saccharide residues on the narrow rim of the beta-cyclodextrin may cause a decrease of the binding ability as shown for sodium 2-naphthalenesulfonate. The spacer arms are not passive elements and influence the host binding ability according to their chemical nature. PNA forms soluble cross-linked complexes with cluster galactosides and lactosides scaffolded on beta-cyclodextrin but not with cluster galactopyranosylamines or melibiose. Both, perbranched and hyperbranched beta-cyclodextrins, form stronger complexes with PNA than the monomeric analogues. However, the use of hyperbranched CDs does not contribute to the improvement of the complex stability relative to heptakis-glycocyclodextrin derivatives. Finally, a titration experiment with PNA and a complex formed by a heptakis lactose beta-cyclodextrin derivative with sodium 2-naphthalenesulfonate showed the formation of a soluble cross-linked complex with stronger affinity constant and higher stoichiometry than those observed for the complex formation of PNA with the same heptakis-lactose beta-cyclodextrin derivative, suggesting the formation of a three component complex.
