Composition and properties of freeze-dried products of nicotinic acid withβ-cyclodextrin and heptakis (2,6-0-dimethyl)-β-cyclodextrin

The purpose of the study was to examine the formation of inclusion compounds in the freeze-dried products obtained from aqueous solutions of nicotinic acid and -cyclodextrin (-CD), or heptakis (2,6-0-dimethyl)--cyclodextrin (DIMEB). The molar ratios used were 1:1 and 2:1. In addition two freezing temperatures (–40 and –196°C) and different secondary drying temperatures (+50 and +80°C) were used. Freeze-dried products with -CD obtained after low temperature freezing are of the same crystallographic structure as seen in a pure inclusion compound prepared by coprecipitation. Amorphous products were formed after fast freezing. The molar ratios of included nicotinic acid in the freeze-dried products vary — dependent on the preparation conditions — between 0.75:1 and 1:1. A factorial design proves that the included drug amount can be increased by enhancement of the amount of nicotinic acid used, by faster freezing, and by the combination of these two factors. The proof of inclusion formation was given by a combination of X-ray diffractography, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry and thermofractography.The freeze-dried preparations obtained with DIMEB were amorphous mixtures of the two components. No proof for inclusion of the nicotinic acid in the cyclodextrin cavity could be given. Higher (–40°C) or lower (–196°C) freezing temperatures and the running of the secondary drying process could not influence these results. The very low stability constant of the complex and steric reasons are responsible for this behavior.     

Complex formation of some nonionic surfactants with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and with heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin

The interaction of six nonionic surfactants -[4-(1,1,3,3-tetra-methylbutyl)phenyl]--hydroxypoly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl) with hydroxypropyl--cyclodextrin (HPCD) and dimethyl--cyclodextrin (DIMEB) was studied by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography in the presence and absence of sodium chloride. Each surfactant formed complexes with both cyclodextrin derivatives; however, the strength of interaction varied considerably. DIMEB formed more stable inclusion complexes with the surfactants than did HPCD. A longer ethyleneoxide chain decreased the strength of interaction, whereas sodium chloride exerted a negligible impact. Principal component analysis indicated that both the hydrophobicity and the specific hydrophobic surface are of the surfactant influenced the complex formation indicating the hydrophobic character of the interaction.Dedicated to Professor József Szejtli.     

Thermal behavior of ground mixtures of heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin and benzoic acid

Characterization of an inclusion complex prepared from amorphous ground mixtures of heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)--cyclodextrin (DMCD) and benzoic acid was carried out by a sealed heating method. The formation of the crystalline inclusion complex and the variation in physicochemical properties of the ground mixture were investigated as a function of heating temperature. On the basis of X-ray diffractometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the crystallization of the ground mixture was confirmed to take place at about 135°C. The crystallization temperature was shifted to lower temperatures and the bound molar ratio of benzoic acid to DMCD increased as the mixing molar ratio of benzoic acid to DMCD was raised.Tsumura & Co., 3586 Yoshiwara, Amimachi, Inashikigun, Ibaraki 300-11, Japan.     

Inclusion interaction of chloramphenicol and heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin: phase solubility and spectroscopic methods

The inclusion interaction between chloramphenicol and heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin (DMBCD) had been investigated by phase solubility and spectroscopic methods such as UV-vis spectroscopy, circular dichroism, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H NMR) as well as 2D-ROESY spectra. Phase solubility analysis showed A(L)-type diagram with DMBCD, which suggested the formation of 1:1 inclusion complex of DMBCD with chloramphenicol. The estimated stability constant (K(s)) of the inclusion complex of chloramphenicol with DMBCD is 493 M(-1) at 293 K. The solubility enhancement of chloramphenicol in the presence of DMBCD is stronger than that in the presence of β-CD, HP-β-CD and M-β-CD. The results obtained by spectroscopic methods showed that the nitrophenyl moiety of chloramphenicol is deeply inserted into inner cavity of DMBCD from the narrow rim of DMBCD, which the inclusion model of chloramphenicol with DMBCD differs from that with β-CD.     

Inclusion of ibuprofen by heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin: An X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis study

Inclusion of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen by permethylated-cyclodextrin (TRIMEB) was investigated by thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction. Reaction between racemic ibuprofen and TRIMEB yielded a mixture of isomorphous crystals of TRIMEB - (R)-ibuprofen and TRIMEB — (S)-ibuprofen. The single crystal chosen for X-ray analysis was found to contain the (S)-isomer of the drug. The crystal is orthorhombic, space groupP2₁2₁2₁, witha = 15. 232(7) Å,b = 21.327(7) Å,c = 27.597(7) Å andZ = 4. The structure was solved using the coordinates for the rigid portion of the cyclodextrin molecule of the isomorphous complex with (S)-naproxen. Refinement by full-matrix least-squares techniques gave a finalR factor of 0.079 for 7473 unique observed reflections. The isobutyl group of (S)-ibuprofen is included in the cyclodextrin cavity through hydrophobic forces, with the propionic acid group protruding from theO(2),O(3) face. The lack of chiral discrimination of the host TRIMEB towards ibuprofen as guest was confirmed by a combination of X-ray diffraction methods, thermal analysis and polarimetry.     

NMR as a tool for simultaneous study of diastereoisomeric inclusion complexes formed by racemic mixture of 4′-hydroxyflavanone and heptakis-(2,6-O-dimethyl)-β-cyclodextrin

The complexes formed by (±)-4′-hydroxyflavanone (OHFL) and heptakis-(2,6-O-dimethyl)-β-cyclodextrin (DM-β-CD) were obtained using the racemic mixture of OHFL. These complexes were able to be studied due to their enantiodifferentiation by ¹H-NMR spectroscopy. Stoichiometry, association constants and thermodynamic parameters were obtained from these NMR data, and inclusion geometries were proposed from ROESY and docking experiments. The results show that diastereoisomeric complexes can be studied even when they are formed by enantiomeric mixtures.

Stereoselective reduction with sodium dithionite of conjugated enones in the presence ofβ-cyclodextrin and its heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl) derivative as host compounds or phase transfer agents

The reduction with sodium dithionite in aqueous alkaline solution of the conjugated carbon-carbon double bond of carbonyl compounds1–5 as inclusion compounds in-cyclodextrin (CD) and its heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl) derivative (DMCD) has been investigated. These results are compared with those obtained under phase transfer conditions (1 : 1 water-toluene) using methyltrioctylammonium chloride or DMCD as transfer agents. Remarkable kinetic effects as well as regio-and stereoselectivities were observed, depending on the nature of the host molecule and of the substrate.     

In situ Raman and UV-vis spectroscopic studies of polypyrrole and poly(pyrrole-2,6-dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin)

Polypyrrole (PPy) and poly(pyrrole-2,6-dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin) [P(Py-β-DMCD)] films prepared by potential cycling in aqueous acidic solutions on indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass and gold electrodes were studied by in situ UV-vis and Raman spectroscopy. Characteristic UV-vis and Raman bands were identified and their dependencies on the electrode potential have been discussed. Spectroelectrochemical results reveal differences both in the position of the spectral bands and their potential dependence for PPy and P(Py-β-DMCD) films indicating interactions between polymer chains and CDs during electropolymerization process. The films were also characterized by cyclic voltammetry and FT-IR spectroscopy.     

Matrix effect on the enantiorecognition ability of adsorbents based on heptakis(6-amino-6-deoxy)-β-cyclodextrin

Four adsorbents were synthesized by immobilizing a chiral selector, heptakis(6-amino-6-deoxy)-β-cyclodextrin, on different silica matrices, such as LiChrosorb Si 100, 10 μm; Silasorb SPH Amin, 5 μm; Kromasil 100-5-Sil, 5 μm; and Kromasil 300-5-Sil, 5 μm. The surface of adsorbents was examined by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, and the structural properties of substrates and adsorbents were studied by electron microscopy. A matrix effect on the enantiorecognition ability of adsorbents was studied in the reversed-phase and polar-organic modes of high performance liquid chromatography using some amino acid derivatives (N-carbobenzyloxy-and tert-butoxycarbonyl-) and profens as examples. The adsorbent based on Kromasil 100-5-Sil possesses the best chromatographic properties. It was shown that the enantiomeric composition and the concentration of the active component in Ibuprofen can be determined.     

Inclusion of (aminostyryl)-1-methylpyridinium dyes byβ-cyclodextrin and its use for fluorescent-probe studies on association of cationic and neutral molecules withβ-cyclodextrin

An inclusion complex between TRIMEB and (S)-naproxen has been crystallised and characterised by physicochemical methods including X-ray analysis. The complex crystallises in the orthorhombic crystal system, space groupP2₁2₁2₁, witha=15.179(4),b=21.407(5),c=27.67(1) Å andZ=4. The structure was solved using published coordinates for the skeleton atoms of TRIMEB in an isomorphous complex. Refinement by full-matrix least-squares analysis yieldedR=0.0571 for 6573 unique observed reflections. Hydrophobic forces are responsible for the inclusion of the drug, which has its methoxy group buried in the cavity of the host and its propionic acid moiety protruding from the O(2), O(3) side of the TRIMEB molecule. Both host and guest undergo conformational changes on complexation relative to their conformations observed in the TRIMEB monohydrate and naproxen crystal structures respectively. Complex units pack in a screw-channel mode in a head-to-tail fashion with their axes almost parallel to theb-axis.     

Synthesis of A novel Bridged Bis(β-cyclodextrin)s Possessing Phenanthroline Tether and Its Molecular Binding Ability with Dyes

A novel β-cyclodextrin dimer bearing 2,9-diformyl-1,10-phenanthroline tether 4 has been synthesized and its inclusion complexation behavior with two triangular model substrates (RhB and BG) has been investigated through fluorescence and ultraviolet spectrometry.The result obtained indicated that novel bridged bis(β-cyclodextrin)s could significantly cnhance the original molccular binding ability of native β-cyclodextrin by cooperative binding of two hydrophobic cavities.     

The Heptakis-(2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex with Acetic Acid

A novel monomer-type structure of heptakis-(2,6-di-O-methyl)--cyclodextrin in a typical monoclinic herringbone scheme has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: space group P21, Z = 2, a = 15.165(6), b = 10.613(3), c = 23.188(8) Å, = 102.02(4)°, V = 3650(3) Å3 and R = 0.094 for 2933 observed MoK reflections with I > 3(I). A unique water molecule located in the intermolecular spaces, reinforces the cohesion between the herringbone chains. The analysis of the electron density distribution suggests that an acetic acid molecule is trapped within the macrocycle cavity, alternately with a water molecule.     

Molecular Recognition and Cooperative Binding Ability of Fluorescent Dyes by Bridged Bisβ-cyclodextrin)s Tethered with Aromatic Diamine

A novel bridged bis(β-cyclodextrin),m-phenylenediimino-bridged bis(6-imino-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin) (2), was synthesized by the reaction of m-phenylenediamine and 6-deoxy-6-formyl-β-cyclodextrin. The inclusion complexation behavior of the novel bridged bis(β-cyclodextrin) 2,as well as native β-cyclodextrin (1),p-phenylenediamino-bridged bis(6-amino-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin) (3) and 4,4'-bianilino-bridged bis(6-amino-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin) (4) with representative fluorescent dye molecules, i.e., acridine red (AR), neutral red (NR), Rhodamine B (RhB), ammonium 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS) and sodium 6-toluidino-2-naphthalenesulfonate (TNS), was investigated at 25 °C in aqueous phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.20) by means of fluorescence, and circular dichroism, as well as 2D NMR spectrometry. The spectrofluorometric titrations have been performed to calculate the complex stability constants (K_S) and Gibbs free energy changes (Δ G°) for the stoichiometric 1 : 1 inclusion complexation of 1–4 with fluorescent dye molecules. The results obtained demonstrated that bis(β-cyclodextrin)s 2–4 showed much higher affinities toward these guest dyesthan native β-cyclodextrin 1. Typically, dimer 2 displayed the highest binding ability upon inclusion complexation with ANS, affording 35 times higher K_S value than native β-cyclodextrin. The significantlyenhanced binding abilities of these bis(β-cyclodextrin)s are discussed from thebinding mode and viewpoints of size/shape-fit concept and multiple recognition mechanism.     

Inclusion compounds of plant growth regulators in cyclodextrins, part VII: study of the crystal structures of 2-naphthylacetic acid encapsulated in β-cyclodextrin and heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin complexes by X-ray crystallography

The crystal structures of the β-naphthylacetic acid (2NAA)/β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and the 2NAA/heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-CD (TMβCD) complexes are reported. The 2NAA/β-CD complex crystallizes in the triclinic system forming a dimer inside the cavity of which two 2NAA molecules disordered over two sites are located. The dimers are stacked along the c axis according to the channel packing mode forming a nanotube which resembles a wireway as it contains guest molecules linked by π–π interactions inside each dimeric cavity and by H-bonds between the adjacent dimers. The 2NAA/TMβCD complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁. Its asymmetric unit contains one host, one guest distributed over two sites and one water molecule having a low occupancy factor. The complexes are packed in a head-to-tail mode forming a screw channel along the b axis. The carboxyl group of the guest protrudes towards the “free” space between the complexes and is H-bonded to the water molecule which in turn is H-bonded to the O5n atom of the host of the subsequent complex. The orientation of the guest molecule in the 2NAA/β-CD complex has been found opposite to that of the guest in the 2NAA/TMβCD complex probably due to the formation of dimers and the π–π interactions between the naphthalene moieties of the encapsulated molecules inside the dimeric cavity.     

Synthesis and characterisation of novel glycoclusters based on cell penetrating heptakis(6-aminoethylamino-6-deoxy)-??-cyclodextrin

The modification of a polyamino ??CD, heptakis(6-aminoethylamino-6-deoxy)-??CD (bpen) with several monosaccharides (Man, GlcNAc, Gal, Glc), specific for bacterial lectin targeting is described. The first synthetic approach, based on disuccinimidyl carbonate-substituted monosaccharides had moderate success, whereas the second approach, based on thiopropanoic acid-linked monosaccharides, was more efficient. Each method gave the best result with a different monosaccharide. Given that bpen is known to penetrate cells, the new products are expected to possess both lectin recognition ability and membrane crossing properties.     

Binding forces in complexation ofp-alkylphenols withβ-cyclodextrin and methylatedβ-cyclodextrins

Fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to determine the binding constants (K) for inclusion complexes of six kinds ofp-Akyphenols with-cyclodextrin (-CDx), heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)--CDx (DMe--CDxg), and heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)--CDx (TMe--CDx). The stability of the inclusion complex of each cyclodextrin increases with increasing alkyl chain length of thep-alkylphenol. TheK values decrease in the order of DMe--CDx,-CDx, and TMe--CDx for each guest. In complexation of 3-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-1-propanol (3) with-CDx as well as with DMe--CDx, negative enthalpy (H) and positive entropy changes (S) have been obtained, suggesting both van der Waals and hydrophobic interactions as binding forces. The inclusion of 3 by TMe--CDx, however, is an enthalpically favorable but entropically unfavorable process. The van der Waals interactions may be the main binding forces for complexing3 with TMe--CDx.
