Polymorphism of Inclusion Complexes and Unsolvated Hosts. II. Structure of the β-Dimorph of the Host-Guest Complex of Dianilinegossypol with Ethylacetate

Depending on crystallization conditions, dianilinegossypol and ethylacetate form low (ambient temperature, -phase) and high temperature (t = 35°C, -phase) clathrate modifications. The structure of the -phase has been discussed earlier [1]. Crystals of the 1 : 1 -phase complex, C42H40O6N2·C4O2H8, are monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 11.362(6), b = 19.479(9), c = 19.085(9) Å, = 103.21(4)°, V = 4112(3)Å3, Z = 4, R = 0.084 for 3210 observed reflections.In these complexes centrosymmetric dimers of dianilinegossypol molecules formed via O(5)—H···O(3) hydrogen bonds are associated into columns by a weak O(8)—H···O(7) H-bond. A difference in the structure of these two phases is in the packing mode of the columns. The angle formed by intersecting host columns is about 126° for the -phase and 104° for the -modification. Guest molecules are hydrogen bonded to the host molecules via an O(1)—H···O(10) bond and are accommodated in channels in -phase complex and in cavities in -phase complex.     

Polymorphism of Inclusion Complexes and Unsolvated Hosts. IV. Dimorphism of the Acetone Host–Guest Complex of Dianilinegossypol. Structures of the α- and β-Phase Complexes

Crystal structures of the - and -phase inclusion complexes of dianilinegossypol with acetone obtained at 20° and 30 °C, respectively, have been determined by X-ray structure analysis. Crystal data of the -phase complex are: C₄₂H₄₀O₆N₂2C₃H₆O, orthorhombic, space group Pccn, a = 29.501(9), b = 10.866(2), c = 13.756(3) Å, V = 4409(1) ų, Z = 4, D _x = 1.18 g cm^-3. The structure has been refined to a final R value of 0.117 for 1401 observed reflections. The host–guest ratio for the -phase complex is the same (1 : 2) and the crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 28.352(6), b = 11.836(2), c = 13.196(1) Å, = 93.05(1)°, V = 4422(2) Å3, Z = 4, D _x =1.18 g cm^-3. The structure has been refined to a final R value of 0.077 for 1414 observed reflections.In both phases molecules of dianilinegossypol form hydrogen-bondedribbons by O(4)–-HO(3) H-bonds. Phases are determined by the same structural motif. In the -phase complex the cages are in the form of prisms but in the -phase clathrate they undergo a modification by shrinking in two directions and widening in one. Molecules of acetone are hydrogen bonded to the host molecules via aO(1)–-HO(G) bond and are accommodated in cavities for both complexes, i.e. both phases are cryptate-type inclusion complexes.Supplementary data relevant to this publicationhave been deposited with the British Library,No. SUP 82227 (24 pages).     

Polymorphism of Inclusion Complexes and Unsolvated Hosts. I. Trimorphism of the Host-Guest Complex of Gossypol with Dichloromethane. The Structure of the β-Phase

The formation of host-guest complexes of gossypol at different temperatures has been investigated for the same pressure and concentration. Gossypol forms three different clathrates with dichloromethane within the temperature interval of 22-36 °C. Single crystals of these three modifications (phases) were obtained and their crystallographic parameters measured. The structure of the -phase has been determined previously and the -phase is isostructural to the inclusion complex of gossypol with benzene, while the structure of the -phase has been solved during the present research. Crystals of C30H30O8·CH2Cl2 are triclinic, space group P1, a = 8.604(1), b = 11.858(2), c = 14.405(2) (Å), = 84.60(1), = 89.14(1), = 89.73(1)°, V = 1463(1) Å3, Z = 2, R = 0.089 for 2419 observed reflections.Under ambient conditions gossypol forms unstable tubulates of the -phase; the -phase is a stable cage-type clathrate (cryptate) and the host-guest complex of the -phase is a clathrate of intermediate tubulato-cryptate type.     

Stoichiometry, Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Host–Guest Interactions between Cryptand C222 and Iodine in 1,2-Dichloroethane. Formation of a C222.I+ Inclusion Cryptate

The host–guest molecular complexationreaction between cryptand C222 and iodine has beenstudied spectrophotometrically in 1,2-dichloroethanesolution. The resulting 1 : 1 and 2 : 1 (I₂ to C222)complexes were formulated as (C222 I⁺)I^-and (C222 I⁺)I₃ ^-, respectively. Theenthalpy and entropy of the complex formationreactions were evaluated from the temperaturedependence of the formation constants. The resultingcomplexes are both enthalpy and entropy stabilized.The spectrophotometric, NMR, conductometric andpotentiometric results emphasize that the complexesare positive iodine cryptates. The rate constants forthe formation and proton-assisted dissociation of the(C222 I⁺)I₃ ^- complex at varioustemperatures and the corresponding activationparameters were evaluated. Based on the results thusobtained, possible pathways for the complexationreaction are proposed.

A Comparison of the Host–Guest Inclusion Complexes of 1,8-ANS and 2,6-ANS in Parent and Modified Cyclodextrins

The fluorescent molecules1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate (1,8-ANS) and2-anilinonaphthalene-6-sulfonate (2,6-ANS) areextremely sensitive to the polarity of their localenvironment, making them excellent probes for thestudy of heterogeneous systems, including cyclodextrin(CD) solutions. Both are only weakly fluorescent in ahighly polar medium, such as water, but are extremelyfluorescent in a relatively nonpolar medium, such aswithin a CD cavity. These two probes are isomers, withmajor structural differences: 1,8-ANS is much bulkierand more spherical, whereas 2,6-ANS is much morestreamlined and rod-shaped. Thus, they show majordifferences in their formation of CD inclusioncomplexes. This is reflected both in the magnitude ofthe observed fluorescence enhancement upon CDinclusion, as well as in the value of the associationconstant for complex formation. The creation of ascale for each probe for their fluorescence in CDsrelative to that in ethanol allows for directcomparisons to be made between the two probes. Theseresults are obtained and compared for the host-guestinclusion complexes of 1,8-ANS and 2,6-ANS with sixCDs: , , , and theirhydroxypropylated analogs.     

Inclusion of Nonopiate Analgesic Drugs in Cyclodextrins. I. X-Ray Structure of a 1 : 1 β-Cyclodextrin-p-bromoacetanilide Complex

The preparation and X-ray crystal structure of a 1 : 1 complex between -cyclodextrin (-CD) and the analgesic p-bromoacetanilide are reported. Thermogravimetric and UV spectrophotometric analyses of single crystals grown from an aqueous solution containing host and guest in 1 : 1 molar ratio yielded the composition -CD p-bromoacetanilide $ 13.5H2O. Crystals of the complex are triclinic, space group P1, with a = 15.197(3), b = 15.613(2), c = 15.743(4) Å, = 87.16(2), = 98.29(2), = 103.39(1)° and Z = 2 crystallographically independent complex units per unit cell. The -CD molecules form head-to-head dimers which pack in the channel-mode. Each dimer contains two guest molecules whose acetylamino substituents are located at the dimer interface while the bromine atoms protrude from the -CD primary faces. The acetyl residues of both guest molecules were found to be disordered but the X-ray data permitted     

X-ray Structure and Thermal Properties of a 1:1 Inclusion Complex Between Permethylated β-Cyclodextrin and Psoralen

The phytoalexin psoralen (7H-furo[3,2-g][1]benzopyran-7-one) has been included in heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin (TRIMEB) to yield a solid crystalline complex of formula TRIMEB-psoralen-H₂O. Its X-ray structural elucidation provides an accurate model for cyclodextrin–furocoumarin interaction. Thermal analysis (hot stage microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry) indicated complex dehydration in the range 40–100°C followed by melting at 137.1°C. The X-ray analysis showed that the elongated guest molecule induces elliptical distortion in the host molecule, with which it interacts via C-H ?O hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. The host molecule adopts a very similar conformation to that in the isostructural complex with l-menthol as guest. Water molecules bridge symmetry-related TRIMEB molecules by hydrogen bonding.

Changes in the Solubility of β-Cyclodextrin on Complex Formation: Guest Enforced Solubility of β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complexes

The most common native host molecule, -cyclodextrin (cycloheptaamylose) is able toform inclusion complexes with a large variety of guestmolecules (or ions) of different size and shape. Theproperties of the included guest molecule are highlyinfluenced by the host-guest interaction, and thepractical usefulness of -cyclodextrin isdependent on these effects. These changes are mainlyinvestigated from the point of view of the guest andto a lesser extent from that of the host. In spite ofthis, the kind of guests and that of the host-guestinteractions during the formation of the inclusioncomplex seem to influence the properties of thehydrophilic domain of -cyclodextrin (i.e. thatof the supramolecule itself), too, and this effect canbe well demonstrated by the change of solubility ofdifferent -cyclodextrin inclusion complexes.This change can be best correlated with the solubilityof the guest as if the guest enforced its solubilityon the supramolecule.

Fluorescent spectra show an obvious quenching of fluorescence compared with free 1,2,3-triazole ligand. The results of agarose gel electrophoresis indicate that this complex can cleave the plasmid supercoiled DNA within shorter time in the 50-folds excess of ascorbate under physiological conditions, providing a new example in the research for artificial metal nucleic acid enzyme.

Diverse Modes of Guest Inclusion in a Cyclodextrin: X-ray Structural and Thermal Characterization of a 4:3 β-cyclodextrin—Cyclizine Complex

Abstract

1-Diphenylmethyl-4-methylpiperazine (cyclizine) is an antiemetic drug which forms an inclusion complex with β-cyclodextrin of formula (β-cyclodextrin)₄ · (cyclizine)₃ · 50H₂O. This species crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁ with a = 15.246(1), b = 65.075(5), c = 15.609(1) Å, β = 102.62(1)° and Z = 2 formula units. Complex water content and the host:drug stoichiometric ratio were determined by thermogravimetry and UV spectrophotometry respectively. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that the crystals dehydrate in at least two stages and begin to decompose from approximately 250°C. The crystal structure was solved by a combination of Patterson search and direct methods. Isotropic refinement converged at R = 0.094 for 8806 reflections with I > 2σ(I). The unusual stoichiometry is accounted for as follows: the four β-cyclodextrin molecules comprising the asymmetric unit occur as two independent head-to-head dimers, each formed by O—H…O hydrogen bonding across the macro-cyclic secondary surfaces. One dimer contains two cyclizine guest molecules in head-to-tail orientation, thus accounting for two distinct modes of drug inclusion. In the second dimer, only one β-cyclodextrin molecule is significantly occupied by a cyclizine molecule (in a mode analogous to one of those in the first dimer), the other half of the dimer being largely devoid of guest. A possible mechanism for the formation of this unusual structure is proposed and the crystal packing arrangement is shown to be based on a novel disrupted tetrameric channel motif.

The complex exhibits a one-dimensional double chain structure. The adjacent chains are further connected by N–H...N hydrogen bonds which help to form a two-dimensional supramolecular architecture. Furthermore, the complex exhibits excellent thermal stability and luminescent property.
