Study on the inclusion compound of β-cyclodextrin with (η5-cyclopentadienyl)tricarbonylmanganese(0)

The supramolecular inclusion compound of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD, host) with (η5-cyclopentadienyl)tricarbonylmanganese [MnCp(CO)3, guest] was obtained in a crystalline state. The host-guest compound is thermally stable and do not liberate the guest on heating at 100$ in vacuum. It was characteried by elemental analysis,1H NMR, differential scanning thermal (DSC) analysis and TLC. Continueous variation plot by NMR method shows that β-CD formed 1:1 inclusion compound with MnCp(CO)3. On the basis of 1H NMR spectra and the model building with Corey Pauling Koltum (CPK) models, the most probable inclusion mode is proposed.     

Using PVP/SDS Complex as a Probe to Study the Inclusion Complex of β-cyclodextrin with SDS in Aqueous Solution

PVP/SDS complex was applied as a probe to study the interaction between β-cyclodextrin （β-CD） and sodium dodecyl sulfate （SDS） in aqueous solution. It has been found that a critical concentration, namely cs, exists in the relative viscosity of solution containing PVP/SDS complex versus β-CD concentration plot. As the β-CD concentration is less than cs, the relative viscosity of solution decreases sharply by adding β-CD into solution successively. On the other hand, as the β-CD concentration is greater than cs, the relative viscosity of solution increases gradually by adding β-CD into solution. The decrease of the relative viscosity of solution containing PVP/SDS in the presence of β-CD is just due to the inclusion complex of β-CD with the guest molecule SDS. And, this inclusion interaction takes down SDS from the PVP chains in solution. The ratio of the host molecule β-CD to the guest molecule SDS can be calculated from Cs. In our experiment the inclusion ratio of β-CD to SDS is 1/1. The further experimental results indicate that cs is associated with SDS but free from PVP in PVP/SDS complex. However, the inclusion ratio of β-CD to SDS has proved to be independent of either SDS or PVP in PVP/SDS complex.     

Spectroscopic Study on Interaction of β-Cyclodextrin with Triprolidine Hydrochloride

The complexation of triprolidine hydrochloride （TRP） and β-cyclodextrin （β-CD） in deuterium oxide was investigated by 400 MHz 1^H NMR spectroscopy. The 800 MHz 2D ROESY data revealed that two 1 ：1 and one 2 ： 1 β-CD-TRP inclusion complexes were formed. Both aromatic moieties （p-tolyl and pyridyl ring） has entered into the β-CD cavity, confirming the existence of two different equilibria for 1 ： 1 inclusion complexes in which p-tolyl ring of the guest is more tightly held by the host cavity. The ROE intermolecular interactions provided the plausible structures of these 1 ： 1 and 2 ： 1 stoichiometric inclusion complexes of β-CD-triprolidine hydrochloride in solu- tion.     

The structural analysis of the inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin with m-nitrophenoxyacetic acid

The inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin with m-nitrophenoxyacetic acid was studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction,2D NMR spectroscopy and semi-empirical methods AMI.The crystallographic study shows that two β-cyclodextrins are held together by hydrogen bonds to form head-to-head dimers.The disordered guest molecule adjusts itself to attain the most stable accommodation into the cavity in which the nitro group is located at the dimer interface while the carboxyl group is buried in the primary hydroxyl groups of β-cyclodextrin.The guest inside the cavity is disordered over two sites and exhibits mobility.Moreover,2D NMR spectroscopy and theoretical study show the same inclusion behavior.In comparison to the inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin with p-nitrophenoxyacetic acid,the host-guest stoichiometries are different,i.e.,2:1 for m-nitrophenoxyacetic acid and 1:1 for p-nitrophenoxyacetic acid,while the inclusion orientation and the packing pattern of the host are similar in both complexes.     

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF INCLUSION COMPLEXES OF TWO-ARM LINEAR AND FOUR-ARM STAR-SHAPED POLY(ε-CAPROLACTONE)S WITH α-CYCLODEXTRIN

Both four-arm star-shaped poly(ε-caprolactone) (4sPCL) and two-arm linear PCL (2LPCL) were synthesized and their inclusion complexation with α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) were studied. The inclusion complexes (ICs) formed between the PCL polymers and α-CD were characterized by 1H-NMR, DSC, TGA, WAXD, and FT-IR, respectively. Both branch arm number and molecular weight of the PCL polymers have apparent effect on the stoichiometry (CL:CD, mol:mol) of these ICs. All these analytical results indicate that the branch arms of the PCL polymers are incorporated into the hydrophobicα-CD cavities and their original crystalline properties are completely suppressed. Moreover, the inclusion complexation between two-arm linear or four-arm star-shaped PCL polymers and α-CD not only enhances the thermal stability of the guest PCL polymers but also improves that of α-CD.     

Construction of photoresponsive supramolecular micelles based on ethyl cellulose graft copolymer

In this work, a UV-Visible light controlled supramolecular system based on ethyl cellulose(EC) was constructed, combining the host-guest interaction of β-cyclodextrin(β-CD) group and trans-isomer of azobenzene(tAzo) group. To link β-CD to the hydrophobic section, renewable EC was used as macroinitiator to initiate the polymerization of ε-caprolactone(ε-CL) to form biocompatible and biodegradable comb copolymer EC-g-PCL, and β-CD was attached to the end of PCL side chain via click reaction. Meanwhile, hydrophilic PEG-tAzo was obtained by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide(DCC) coupling. Then, the structures of the products were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) and gel permeation chromatography(GPC). Subsequently, with the formation of inclusion complexes by β-CD and tAzo groups, the obtained EC-g-PCL-β-CD/PEG-tAzo supramolecular system self-assembled in water with hydrophobic EC-g-PCL-β-CD as core and hydrophilic PEG-tAzo as shell. Furthermore, dynamic light scattering(DLS) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) were utilized to investigate the particle size and size distribution, while NMR and UV-Vis spectra were applied to explore the UV-Visible light stimuli-responsiveness of the micelles.     

A hybrid hydrogel based on clay nanoplatelets and host–guest inclusion complexes

In this work,a monomer with double bond was introduced to the surface of clay nanosheets via inclusion complexation between cyclodextrin(CD)host and azobenzene(Azo)guest,as well as electrostatic interaction between clay nanoplatelets and cations of azobenzene derivatives.The obtained suprastructure acts as a supramolecular cross-linker in its copolymerization with macromonomer PEG resulting in a hybrid supramolecular hydrogel.Only viscous liquid was obtained in the absence of clay nanoplatelets,revealing the supramolecular cross-linker played an important role in the hydrogel formation.Such hybrid supramolecular hydrogel exhibited good stability and shear thinning property.     

Theoretical Study on the Inclusion Complex of β-Cyclodextrin and Nitrobenzene

Quantum chemical calculations were carried out to investigate the structures and properties for the inclusion complexes of nitrobenzene (NB) into β-cyclodextrin. Two low-energy conformations of β-cyclodextrin (A and B) in the gas phase were initially investigated by the PM3 and B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) calculations, respectively. Three different orientations were considered in the inclusion process of A and B with NB to form 1:1 complexes. Potential energy scan by PM3 calculations indicated that the phenyl orientation Ab for conformation A and the equator orientation Bc for conformation B are more favorable in energy, respectively. We also considered the 2:1 inclusion complexes of host A or B with guest NB in the gas phase. PM3 calculation indicated that the host-guest interaction energies to form 1:1 complexes are more negative than those to form 2:1 NB/B complexes. Finally, we studied the solvent effect of NB/CD complex, and PM3 results show that the influence of water molecules on the inclusion process is very important. The driving forces for the inclusion process and the geometries of complexes were discussed in detail.

Comparative Study on the Inclusion Interaction between meso-Tetrakis（4-N-ethylpyridiniurmyl） porphyrin and β-Cyclodextrin Derivatives

The interaction of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and the modified cyclodextrins, hydroxy propyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) and synthesized meso-tetrakis(4-N-ethylpyridiniurmyl)porphyrin (TEPyP) in aqueous solution has been studied by spectroscopic methods systematically. A significant change in fluorescence and absorption properties has been observed in the presence of β-CD, HP-β-CD and SBE-β-CD. The stoichiometry and formation constants have been determined by the steady-state fluorescence technique. The results showed that the β-CD derivatives were prior to the native β-CD and the hydrogen bonding and static electric forces played important roles in the formation of the inclusion complexes. The conformation was further confirmed by NMR spectroscopy.

The properties of these compounds were studied by nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry(NMR), differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Experimental results indicate that barbiturates form the inclusion compounds with β-CD by hydrogen bonds. The results also suggest that FTIR is a valuable tool to investigate the inclusion complex system.

Studies on Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex by Fluorescence Anisotropy

An equation for determining the equilibrium association constant (KA) of cyclodextrin inclusion complex with fluorescence anisotropy is derived and used to determine KA of pyrene-B-cyclodextrin inclusion complex. The existing forms of cyclodextrin inclusion complex in solution, the interaction type of host with guest, and the possibility of application of B-cyclodextrin in the analysis of metal ions using naphthalene derivative as a ligand are discussed based on the equation derived along with the curve of fluorescence anisotropy versus cyclodextrin concentration of guest/cyclodextrin system.     

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF INCLUSION COMPLEXES OF TWO-ARM LINEAR AND FOUR-ARM STAR-SHAPED POLY（ε-CAPROLACTONE）S WITH α-CYCLODEXTRIN

Both four-ann star-shaped poly（ε-caprolactone） （4sPCL） and two-ann linear PCL （2LPCL） were synthesized and their inclusion complexation with α-cyclodextrin （α-CD） were studied. The inclusion complexes （ICs） formed between the PCL polymers and α-CD were characterized by ^1H-NMR, DSC, TGA, WAXD, and FT-1R, respectively. Both branch ann number and molecular weight of the PCL polymers have apparent effect on the stoichiometry （CL：CD, mol：mol） of these ICs. All these analytical results indicate that the branch arms of the PCL polymers are incorporated into the hydrophobic α-CD cavities and their original crystalline properties are completely suppressed. Moreover, the inclusion complexation between two-ann linear or four-ann star-shaped PCL polymers and α-CD not only enhances the thermal stability of the guest PCL polymers but also improves that of α-CD.     

Study on the inclusion behavior and solid inclusion complex of 5-amino-6-methyl-2-benzimidazolone with cyclodextrins

The inclusion behaviors of three native or modified CDs including p-CD,2-hydroxypropyl-β-CD(2-Hp-β-CD) and 2,6-dimethyl-β-CD(Me-β-CD) toward 5-amino-6-methyl-2-benzimidazolone(AMBI) were comparatively investigated by NMR and fluorescence titration in combination with IR spectra,X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microphotographs.The experimental results jointly demonstrated that the phenyl ring of AMBI entered into the cavity of the CDs and located close to the narrow rims accompanied by the formation of the 1:1 inclusion complex with large stability constant in aqueous solution.The introduction of the hydroxypropyl unit to the host improved the solubility,ultimately effecting an obvious promoting in the fluorescence intensity and the stability constant     

LASER FLASH SPECTROSCOPY STUDIES OF THE ANTHRACENEN,N-DIETHYLANILINE EXCIPLEX FORMATION IN γ-CYCLODEXTRIN

Gamma-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) was used to induce the formationof N,N-diethylaniline (DEA) exciplex in 15:85{φ=0.15)v/v EtOH-H_2Obinary mixture.Measurements of the fluorescence spectra of anthracene inthe presence or absence of DEA and γ-CD show that γ-CD can form 1:1:1host/guest-Ⅰ/guest-Ⅱ inclusion complex with anthracene and DEA.     

Study on the Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Immobilized β-Cyclodextrin Polymer (Ⅰ)

A series of novel β-cyclodextrin polymers was synthesized by immobilization of β-cyclodextrin on the chloromethylated crosslinked polystyrene carriers. The synthetic conditions such as reaction time, temperature, molar feeding ratio of reactants, the degree of crosslinking of polystyrene and the catalysts used were studied in detail and the chemical and physical structures of the formed β-CDpolymers were characterized. Results show that the preparation method is simple and the amount of β-CD immobilized is high. As biomedical adsorbents, they were tested for removal of various endogenous and exogenous toxins such as phenols, aromatic amins, barbitals and unconjugated bilirubin. Results indicate that the adsorptión capacity for those toxins can be enhanced by the inclusion interaction among the β-CD, the substrate molecules and the β-CD polymers.     

Prominently Promoting the Formation of Poly(butylene adipate) α-Form Crystals by Coalescing from Inclusion Complex

We successfully use a co-precipitation method to prepare inclusion complex between poly(butylene adipate)(PBA) chains(guest component) and urea molecules(host component). The PBA/urea inclusion complex is confirmed to adopt a hexagonal crystal modification with lattice parameters of a = 8.14 ? and c = 10.92 ?, and the interaction between PBA chains and urea is van der Waals force. The singly isolated PBA chains are suggested to take some gauche conformation, which is different from the all-trans conformation in β-form PBA. Furthermore, we employ the isolated PBA chains which are uniformly pre-established in a specific conformation in urea channels to regulate the crystal form of PBA for the first time. After removing the host urea molecules, the coalesced PBA chains are found to solely crystallize into α-form crystals at different coalescing temperatures. By comparing the FTIR spectra, it is found that PBA chains in inclusion complex plausibly contain some similar conformers as those in α-form crystal, which is suggested to be the intrinsic reason for the sole formation of α-form crystals. This research proves that inclusion complex can be used as a very effective method to regulate polymorphism of semi-crystalline polymers.     

Using an Inhibitor to Prevent Plasticizer Migration from Polyurethane Matrix to EPDM Based Substrate

The loss of adhesion between the propellant and insulator is one of the most important problems in solid propellant motors due to migration of plasticizer to interface of propellant and insulator. In this work, the polyurethane (PU) binder containing DOP plasticizer was used as a polymeric matrix and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was applied as inhibitor agent to prevent plasticizer migration from the PU matrix into the ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) substrate. To increase the compatibility of β-CD and PU matrix, a derivative of β-CD has been synthesized using toluene diisocyanate (β-CD-TDI). The synthesized derivative was characterized by MALDI-MS and FTIR-ATR analyses. FTIR-ATR results confirmed the formation of bonding between β-CD and the polymeric network while the MALDIMS results showed that the synthesized derivative contained two β-CD and 7 TDI molecules bonded to β-CD. Investigation of the mechanical properties of PU modified by β-CD-TDI showed a decrease in tensile strength and an increase in elongation at break with increasing β-CD-TDI content. DMTA results showed a decrement in crosslinking density by increasing the β-CD-TDI content. Also, to investigate plasticizer migration, extraction of the DOP plasticizer from samples was performed using dichloromethane solvent and its concentration was measured by gas chromatography. The results of migration evaluation after four months showed that using β-CD as an inhibitor agent in the PU binder could prevent the migration of plasticizer to EPDM substrate.

The supramolecular interaction also exists in solid state as confirmed by the studies of the solid samples, which were obtained by frozen-drying the solution sampies, using FTIR spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） techniques. TEM measurement demonstrated that wire-shaped supramolecular aggregates exist in the aqueous solution of the two compounds. The lengths of the aggregates could reach micrometers.
