Gamma-cyclodextrin on enhancement of water solubility and store stability of nystatin

The water solubility of nystatin was found enhanced by forming inclusion complex with gamma-cyclodextrin (γ-CD). Further discovery of a pleased surprise showed that the phase solubility curves of nystatin in β- and γ-CD aqueous solution were A_L type, while B_S type for α-CD, indicating 1:1 inclusion complexes were formed between β-CD, γ-CD and nystatin, but no inclusion complexes for α-CD, in addition, CDs with much larger ring would be more suitable for forming inclusion complexes with macrolide antibiotics. The aqueous solubility of nystatin in γ-CD solution was investigated increased with γ-CD concentration increasing. At the concentration of 24 g/100 ml for γ-CD aqueous solution, which is near to the saturated solution, water solubility of nystatin was found to be 104 μg/ml, which was 103 folds over original nystatin. Inclusion constants for γ-CD–nystatin complexes were 0.539 l/mmol, which is larger than that of β-CD–nystatin complex (0.375 l/mmol). The inclusion complex of γ-CD with nystatin was prepared and detected by infrared spectrum, results showing that the ester linkage and diene were included in the cavity of CDs, while conjugate arachidonic, carboxyl and amino group were left outside of CDs. Storing experiment showed that forming of the inclusion complexes greatly enhanced the stability of nystatin against light and oxygen.     

Effects of water and alcohol on the formation of inclusion complexes of d-limonene and cyclodextrins

Abstract

Systematic studies have been carried out on the role of water and alcohol in the formation of inclusion complexes between d-limonene and α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrin (CD) by a micro-aqueous method. The inclusion complex was barely formed at zero water content for all CDs. Above the specific water content for each CD, formation of the inclusion complex correlated well with an equation which was derived on the autocatalytic assumption for the inclusion phenomenon. The inclusion complex correlated well with an equation which was derived on the autocatalytic assumption for the inclusion phrnomenon. The minimum water content, which was defined as 1% of the maximum concentration of the inclusion complex formed, coincided with the number of water molecules inside the cavity of the CD. In the presence of ethanol, a significant amount of the inclusion complex was formed for β- and γ-CD/limonene systems, particularly at lower moisture content. However, for α-CD the inclusion fraction decreased significantly in the presence of ethanol. This means that ethanol inhibits the formation of the inclusion complex between x-CD and d-limonene. For other linear alcohols, the formation of the inclusion complex between d-limonene and β-CD increased with decreasing alkyl chain length. This suggests that the more hydrophilic and the smaller (in molecular size) the alcohol is, the more enhanced is the inclusion of d-limonene to β-CD.     

Investigation of the complexation of essential oil components with cyclodextrins

The formation of inclusion complexes of six essential oil (EO) components (β-caryophyllene, cis-ocimene, trans-ocimene, sabinene hydrate (thujanol), γ-terpinene and α-terpineol) with six cyclodextrins (CDs) (α-CD, β-CD, γ-CD, HP-β-CD, RAMEB and CRYSMEB) was investigated by using static headspace-gas chromatography and UV–visible spectroscopy. Retention studies showed that CDs could efficiently reduce the volatility of EO components except for β-caryophyllene with α-CD. In this case, no inclusion complex was detected while for other compounds the formation of 1:1 inclusion complexes was observed. Results revealed that the inclusion stability mainly depends on geometric complementarity between encapsulated molecule and CD's cavity. Molecular modelling was used to investigate the complementarities between host and guest. Thus, CDs could efficiently be regarded as promising encapsulants for EO components leading to improve their application in cosmetic, pharmaceutical and agriculture fields.     

Complex Formation of Hematoporphyrin with Cyclodextrins and 1,1′-Diheptyl-4,4′-bipyridinium Dibromide in Aqueous Solutions

At around 5×10^-6?mol?dm^-3 of hematoporphyrin (HP), an HP dimer exists as well as an HP monomer. The equilibrium constant for the dimerization of HP in pH 10.0 buffer has been evaluated to be 1.70×10⁵?mol^-1?dm³ from the HP concentration dependence of the absorption spectrum. In aqueous solution, HP forms 1:1 inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD), and heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin (TM-β-CD). The fluorescence of HP is significantly enhanced by the addition of CDs. From simulations of the fluorescence intensity changes, the equilibrium constants for the formation of the CD–HP inclusion complexes have been estimated to be 200, 95.7, and 938?mol^-1?dm³ for β-CD, γ-CD, and TM-β-CD, respectively. HP forms a 1:1 complex with 1,1′-diheptyl-4,4′-bipyridinium dibromide (DHB) in aqueous solution. In contrast to the addition of CDs, the HP fluorescence is significantly quenched by the addition of DHB. The equilibrium constant for the formation of the HP–DHB complex has been evaluated to be 1.98×10⁵?mol^-1?dm³ from the fluorescence intensity change of HP. The addition of DHB to an HP solution containing β-CD induces a circular dichroism signal of negative sign, indicating the formation of a ternary inclusion complex involving β-CD, HP, and DHB. In contrast, there is no evidence for the formation of a ternary inclusion complex of HP with DHB and TM-β-CD.     

Study of inclusion complex formation between a cationic surfactant, two cyclodextrins and a drug

In this study inclusion of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HTAB) with α-, and β-cyclodextrin (CD) in the presence and the absence of bromhexine (BH) was investigated using ion-selective electrode method. The association constants of HTAB with CDs were determined by potentiometry and were close to literature values. The obtained results indicated that α-CD formed 1:1 and 1:2 inclusion complexes, but β-CD formed only a 1:1 inclusion complex. In the presence of drug, the interaction between CDs and HTAB decreased, because both drug and HTAB could interact with CDs. The results showed that the interaction between drug and CDs are greater than HTAB and CDs. The stoichiometry of the inclusion complexes, the critical aggregation concentration (CAC), the monomer surfactant concentration of HTAB, [HTAB]_f, and also the effect of the inclusion complex on the micellization process of the HTAB were determined by conductivity measurements.     

Inclusion complexes of cyclodextrins with 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimides (part 2)

Fluorescence spectroscopy was used to characterize inclusion compounds between 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimides (ANI) derivatives and different cyclodextrins (CDs). The ANI derivatives employed were N-(12-aminododecyl)-4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (mono-C₁₂ANI) and N,N′-(1,12-dodecanediyl)bis-4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (bis-C₁₂ANI). The CDs used here were α-CD, β-CD, γ-CD, HP-α-CD, HP-β-CD and HP-γ-CD. The presence of CDs resulted in pronounced blue-shifts in the emission spectra of the ANI derivatives, with increases in emission intensity. This behavior was parallel to that observed for the dyes in apolar solvents, indicating that inclusion complexes were formed between the ANI and the CDs. Mono-C₁₂ANI formed inclusion complexes of 1:1 stoichiometry with all the CDs studied. Complexes with the larger CDs (HP-β-CD, HP-γ-CD and γ-CD) were formed by inclusion of the chromophoric ANI ring system, whereas the smaller CDs (α-CD, HP-α-CD and β-CD) formed complexes with mono-C₁₂ANI by inclusion of the dodecyl chain. Bis-C₁₂ANI formed inclusion complexes of 1:2 stoichiometry with HP-β-CD, HP-γ-CD and γ-CD, but did not form inclusion complexes with α-CD, HP-α-CD and β-CD. The data were treated in the case of the large CDs using a Benesi-Hildebrand like equation, giving the following equilibrium constants: mono-C₁₂ANI:HP-β-CD (K ₁₁ = 50 M^?1), mono-C₁₂ANI:HP-γ-CD (K ₁₁ = 180 M^?1), bis-C₁₂ANI:HP-β-CD (K ₁₂ = 146 M^?2), bis-C₁₂ANI:HP-γ-CD (K ₁₂ = 280 M^?2).     

Spectral modulation of a charge transfer reaction of 2-methoxy-4-(N,N-dimethylamino)benzaldehyde inside cyclodextrin nanocage

This article reports modulation of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) reaction of 2-methoxy-4-(N,N-dimethylamino)benzaldehyde (2-MDMABA) encapsulated within the cyclodextrin nanocavities investigated by steady state and time resolved measurements. The ICT emission, absent in bulk water, originates in the presence of α-, β- and γ-CD with the huge enhancement of local emission. From the Benesi–Hildebrand plot, the stoichiometry of the host–guest inclusion complex is found to be 1:1 for β- and γ-CD whereas 1:1 and 1:2 guest to host complexation occur at low and high concentration of α-CD, respectively. The association constants of the inclusion complexes have also been estimated from the Benesi–Hildebrand plot. The greater binding capability of 2-MDMABA with β-CD than that of other two CDs is further supplemented by time resolved study.     

Spectroscopic study and antioxidant activity of the inclusion complexes of cyclodextrins and amlodipine besylate drug

The aim of the study was to synthesize and characterization the inclusion complexes of amlodipine besylate (AML) drug with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) which has antioxidating activity property. The guest/host interaction of AML with β-CD and γ-CD in order to complexation drug in β-CD and γ-CD were investigated. The interaction inclusion complexes was characterized by fourier transform infrared and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopies. The formation constant was calculated by using a modified Benesi–Hildebrand equation at 25 °C. The stoichiometry of inclusion complexes was found to be 1:1 for β-CD and γ-CD with AML drug. The antioxidant activity of AML drug and its inclusion complexes were determined by the scavenging of stable radical 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH^·). Kinetic studies of DPPH^· with AML and CDs complexes were done. The experimental results confirmed the forming of AML complexes with CDs also these indicated that the AML/β-CD and AML/γ-CD inclusion complexes was the most reactive than its free form into antioxidant activity.     

Photophysics of a cyanine dye within cyclodextrin cavity

The modulated photophysical and dynamical behavior of a potent anti-tumor photosensitizer 3,3^/-diethyloxadicarbocyanine iodide (DODCI) following host-guest inclusion complex formation with α-, β- and γ-Cyclodextrins (CDs) has been studied using steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopic methods. The cavity size of the CDs (α-CD <β-CD <γ-CD) is argued to play an instrumental role underlying the formation of the host-guest inclusion complex. While negligible interaction with α-CD is found to be succeeded by prominent quenching of monomeric fluorescence of the dye within β-CD and γ-CD with the degree of quenching being greater within γ-CD. The most appealing fact attained from the experimental results is the anticipation of dimer formation of DODCI within the large cavity of γ-CD which can entrap more than one molecule of DODCI. The steady-state results are found to be adequately corroborated by time-resolved fluorescence decay studies. Such encapsulation of the cyanine dye within the carrier cargo can be designed for targeted delivery inside biological systems.     

Investigation on the inclusion behaviour of baicalein with β-cyclodextrin and derivatives and their antioxidant ability study

The formation of the complexes of baicalein (Ba) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and β-CD derivatives (HP-β-CD and Me-β-CD) was studied by UV–vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence method, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and phase-solubility measurement. The solid–inclusion complexes of Ba with CDs were synthesised by the co-precipitation method. The characterisations of the solid–inclusion complexes have been proved by infrared spectra and differential scanning calorimetry. Experimental conditions including the concentration of various CDs and media acidity were investigated in detail. The results suggested that the inclusion ratio of HP-β-CD with Ba was the highest among the three kinds of CDs. The binding constants (Ks) of the inclusion complexes were determined by fluorescence method and phase-solubility measurement. Kinetic studies of DPPH√ with Ba and CDs complexes were also done. The results indicated that the Ba/HP-β-CD complex was the most reactive form.     

Investigation of the inclusion of the herbicide cycluron in native cyclodextrins by X-ray diffraction,nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry

The formation of inclusion complexes between the native cyclodextrins (CDs) and the urea herbicide cycluron has been investigated both in solution and in the solid state. Single-crystal X-ray structures of both the uncomplexed guest and the β-CD·cycluron complex were determined while powder X-ray diffraction was used to confirm complexation between γ-CD and cycluron in the solid state. Solution-state complexation between the herbicide and α-, β- and γ-CD was established using ¹H NMR spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). From the ¹H NMR spectroscopic studies 1:1 complex stoichiometry was indicated in all cases and association constant values (K) were determined as 228, 3254 and 155 for the complexes α-CD·cycluron, β-CD·cycluron and γ-CD·cycluron, respectively. Assigning a 1:1 host–guest ratio, the ITC technique produced K values of the same order as those determined using the spectroscopic method. The thermodynamic parameters ΔH, ΔS and ΔG obtained using ITC provide insights into the driving forces involved during complex formation.     

Separation of terbutaline enantiomers in capillary electrophoresis with neutral cyclodextrin-type chiral selectors and investigation of the structure of selector-selectand complexes using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

The major goal of this study was to determine the affinity pattern of the terbutaline (TB) enantiomers toward α-, β-, γ-, and heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetyl)-β-cyclodextrins and using NMR spectroscopy for the understanding of the fine mechanisms of interaction between the cyclodextrins (CD) and TB enantiomers. It was shown once again that CE in combination with NMR spectroscopy represents a sensitive tool to study the affinity patterns and structure of CD complexes with chiral guests. Opposite affinity patterns of TB enantiomers toward native α- and β-CDs were associated with significant differences between the structure of the related complexes in solution. In particular, the complex between TB enantiomers and α-CD was of the external type, whereas an inclusion complex was formed between TB enantiomers and β-CD. One of the possible structures of the complex between TB and heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetyl)-β-CD (HDA-β-CD) was quite similar to that of TB and β-CD, although the chiral recognition pattern and enantioselectivity of TB complexation with these two CDs were very different.     

Effect of the ring size and asymmetry of cyclodextrins on their inclusion ability: a theoretical study

Effect of the ring size and asymmetry upon methylation of cyclodextrins (CDs) on their inclusion ability has been demonstrated for the inclusion complexes of native α-, β-, γ-CDs, dimethylated β-CD (DIMEB) and trimethylated β-CD (TRIMEB) with piperazine (PIZ) by PM3 and ONIOM calculations. In all complexes, PIZ prefers residing mostly in the central CD cavity. The complex stability in the order TRIMEB–PIZ > DIMEB–PIZ > α-CD–PIZ > γ-CD–PIZ > β-CD–PIZ indicates that the CD-ring asymmetry promotes the macrocycle deformation and inclusion ability. Our calculation results suggest that the inclusion complexes of both native and methylated CDs with PIZ in the gas phase are energetically stable, in addition to the β-CD–PIZ inclusion complex that has been evidenced thus far by X-ray crystallographic and spectroscopic analyses. Further calculations in the presence of water and adjacent CD molecules show that the increased intermolecular hydrogen bond interactions enhance the stability of β-CD–PIZ complex.     

Inclusion of Paracetamol into β-cyclodextrin nanocavities in solution and in the solid state

We report on steady-state UV-visible absorption and emission characteristics of Paracetamol, drug used as antipyretic agent, in water and within cyclodextrins (CDs): β-CD, 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CD (HP-β-CD) and 2,6-dimethyl-β-CD (Me-β-CD). The results reveal that Paracetamol forms a 1:1 inclusion complex with CD. Upon encapsulation, the emission intensity enhances, indicating a confinement effect of the nanocages on the photophysical behavior of the drug. Due to its methyl groups, the Me-β-CD shows the largest effect for the drug. The observed binding constant showing the following trend: Me-β-CD>HP-β-CD>β-CD. The less complexing effectiveness of HP-β-CD is due to the steric effect of the hydroxypropyl-substituents, which can hamper the inclusion of the guest molecules. The solid state inclusion complex was prepared by co-precipitation method and its characterization was investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H NMR and X-ray diffractometry. These approaches indicated that Paracetamol was able to form an inclusion complex with CDs, and the inclusion compounds exhibited different spectroscopic features and properties from Paracetamol.     

Studies on α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes of isoquinoline alkaloids berberine, palmatine and coralyne

The complexation of three isoquinoline alkaloids berberine, palmatine and coralyne with α-, β-, and γ-CDs were studied by absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism, NMR spectroscopy and microcalorimetric assay techniques. Their binding constant (K _BH) values were determined by Benesi–Hildebrand equation. All the alkaloids formed 1:1 stoichiometry complexes with the cyclodextrins (CDs). The binding affinity is largest in β-CD followed by γ-, and α-CD for coralyne, followed by berberine and then palmatine. The thermodynamic parameters of the complexation were determined by calorimetry. The stoichiometry of complex formation and the variation of the apparent binding constant from spectroscopic studies were confirmed by calorimetry. The formation of the inclusion complexes was entropy driven in almost all the systems. Coralyne formed the strongest complex with all the CDs, followed by berberine and palmatine in that order. Coralyne-β-CD complex was studied through NMR, indicating more than one interaction mode.     

Complexation of triptolide and its succinate derivative with cyclodextrins: affinity capillary electrophoresis, isothermal titration calorimetry and 1H NMR studies

The complexation of the triptolide PG490 and its succinate derivative PG490-88Na with various cyclodextrins was studied using three complementary techniques: affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE), isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The apparent binding constants of the complexes formed between the drugs and 8 CDs (α-CD, β-CD, γ-CD, HP-α-CD, HP-β-CD, HP-γ-CD, CM-β-CD and amino-β-CD) were determined by ACE through linear Scott's plots. The apparent and averaged binding constants of the complexes formed between PG490-88 and β-CD, γ-CD, HP-α-CD, HP-β-CD or HP-γ-CD are contained in the narrow range 135-167 M(-1). For the anionic CM-β-CD and cationic amino-β-CD, these constants are 38 and 278 M(-1), respectively, which is in accordance with electrostatic repulsions or attractions with the succinate moiety. ITC and NMR investigations for the binding constants determinations were performed for 2 CDs allowing high complexation: HP-β-CD and amino-β-CD. The three techniques provided similar results. ITC and NMR, in contrast to ACE, allowed to study the complexes formed between the neutral compound PG490 and neutral cyclodextrins. A more advanced characterization of the PG 490-88Na/amino-β-CD complex, which displays the highest apparent binding constant, was undertaken using NMR spectroscopy. The 1:1 stoichiometry of the complex was established by (1)H NMR 1D and selective 1D TOCSY experiments using the continuous variation method. Moreover, the 1D and 2D ROESY experiments revealed the inclusion of the isopropyl moiety of the triptolide derivative in the hydrophobic CD cavity. Altogether, the data provide strong evidences that the two triptolide compounds can be efficiently complexed with CD.     

Interaction of cyclodextrins with 1,3-di(1-naphthyl)propane and the additive effects of ionic surfactants

The interaction between cyclodextrins (CDs) and 1,3-di(1-naphthyl)propane (1) in aqueous methanol (V:V=1:1) has been investigated by means of fluorescence emission and UV absorption. Fluorescence enhancement and absorption spectra reveal that β- or γ-CD can form inclusion complexes with 1, but a-CD cannot. One of these complexes is identified as ground state complex (2:1), i.e. the eclipsed conformer of 1 is included. Molecule 1 can be driven out of the CD cavity by sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) molecule, but cannot by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) or sodium cetylsulfate (SCS) molecules due to their alkyl chain coiling.     

Study on the Supramolecular System of TAPP and Cyclodextrins by Spectroscopy

The ability of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), γ-CD, hydroxypropyl-β-CD (HP-β-CD), trimethyl-β-CD (TM-β-CD), sulfurbutylether-β-CD (SBE-β-CD) and carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin (CM-β-CD) to break the aggregate of the meso-tetrakis(4-N-trimethylaminobenzyl)porphyrin (TAPP) and to form 2:1 inclusion complexes has been studied by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The formation constants are calculated, respectively, by fluorimetry, from which the inclusion capacity of different CDs is compared and the inclusion mechanism of charged-β-CD (SBE-β-CD and CM-β-CD) is quite different from that of the parent β-CD. At lower pH, the complexation between TM-β-CD and H²TAPP²⁺ (the form of the diprotonated TAPP) hampers the continuous protonation of the pyrrole nitrogen of TAPP and the hydrophobic cavity may prefer to bind an apolar neutral porphyrin molecule. ¹HNMR data support the inclusion conformation of the porphyrin–cyclodextrin supramolecular system, indicating the interaction of the meso-phenyl groups of TAPP with the cavity of CDs. For this host–guest inclusion model, cyclodextrin being regarded as the protein component, which acts as a carrier enveloping the active site of heme prosthetic group within its hydrophobic environment, provides a protective sheath for the porphyrin, creating artificial analogues of heme-containing proteins. However, for TAPP, encapsulated within this saccharide-coated barrier, its photophysical and photochemical properties changed strongly.     

Study on the inclusion interaction of ethyl violet with cyclodextrins by MWNTs/Nafion modified glassy carbon electrode

The interactions of ethyl violet (EV) with cyclodextrins (CDs) were investigated by Multi-wall carbon nanotubes/Nafion composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (MWNTs/Nafion/GCE). It was found that the MWNTs/Nafion composite film can effectively catalyze the electrode reaction of EV. The variation of the electrochemical behavior of EV upon the addition of CDs indicated the formation of the inclusion complexes of EV with β-CD, heptakis (2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-CD (TM-β-CD), heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-CD (DM-β-CD), hydroxypropyl-β-CD (HP-β-CD), and carboxymethyl-β-CD (CM-β-CD). The stoichiometry ratios of EV and the above five CDs were found to be 1:1. The inclusion ability obeyed the order: CM-β-CD > HP-β-CD > TM-β-CD > DM-β-CD > β-CD. The results showed that the modified β-CDs exhibited stronger binding ability than native β-CD, especially the charged CM-β-CD, which implied that the inclusion capacity depends on not only size matching and hydrophobicity but also electrostatic interaction. ¹HNMR spectra and molecule mechanics calculations suggested that EV was included into the cavity of β-CD from the wider side.
