Self-assembly behavior of inclusion complex formed by β-cyclodextrin with α-aminopyridine

An inclusion complex (1) has been prepared by β-cyclodextrin with α-aminopyridine. The result of X-ray crystallographic analyses showed that the α-aminopyridine molecules in the β-cyclodextrin cavities possess two opposite orientations, i.e. the amine group of α-aminopyridine pointing to the primary side (1a, occupancy: 41.2%) or the secondary side (1b, occupancy: 58.8%) of β-cyclodextrin, forming two scalelike supramolecular aggregations. The studies of 2D NMR and circular dichroism spectra indicated that the α-aminopyridine molecule is deeply embedded in the β-cyclodextrin cavity to form host-guest inclusion complex, showing a circular dichroism spectrum induced by the chiral cavity of cyclodextrin. The results obtained are helpful for understanding the molecular recognition and aggregation mechanism between the host and guest.

Effects of inclusion of cetirizine hydrochloride in β-cyclodextrin

Following the preparation of inclusion complex of cetirizine (CTZ) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), the compound was investigated to assess the possibility of modifying the physicochemical properties (solubility, release, stability, permeability) of CTZ after complexation that are vital for subsequent formulation studies involving the said complex. Changes in FT-IR/Raman spectra, DSC thermograms and XRD diffractograms confirmed the formation of a CTZ–β-CD system. Hydrophilic interaction chromatography with a DAD detector was employed to determine alterations of the CTZ concentration during studies following complexation. An analysis of a phase-solubility diagram of c_CTZ?=?fc_β-CD indicated a linear rise in the solubility of CTZ as the concentration of β-CD increased. The inclusion of CTZ in a system with β-CD significantly reduced the instability of CTZ in the presence of oxidizing factors. It was also found that regardless of the pH of the acceptor fluids used in the release studies an increase was observed in the concentration of CTZ in CD system compared to its free form. The ability to permeate artificial biological membranes manifested by CTZ after complexation was enhanced as well. In summary, CD has significant potential to mask the bitter taste of CTZ and to counter the instability induced by oxidizing factors.     

Complexation of inorganic anions by β-cyclodextrin studied by polarography and 1H NMR

Abstract

Complexation of o-chloronitrobenzene with β-cyclodextrin has been studied in 0.1 M aqueous solutions containing PF₆ ^?, ClO₄ ^?, C₂O₄ ^2-, SCN^?, SO₄ ^2- and F^? anions by a polarographic method. Using an equation which takes account of the change in the cyclodextrin concentration due to the simultaneous complexation of the anion, both stability constants have been calculated. Interaction of the ClO₄ ^? anion with β-cyclodextrin has been confirmed by ¹H NMR techniques. It has been found that the ClO₄ ^? anion is trapped in the β-cyclodextrin cavity. The stability constant has been calculated. Results of polarographic and ¹H NMR studies have been compared.     

Synthesis and characterization of inclusion complex of the vasodilator drug minoxidil with β-cyclodextrin

The inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin and minoxidil (2,4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine 3-oxide) was synthesized using two methods—kneading and freeze-drying—and characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry, differential scanning calorimetry, thermal gravimetric analysis, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. These techniques have demonstrated the existence of inclusion compound formation between the host and guest with a molar ratio of 1:1. The studies of solubility and the data obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy showed a weak interaction between the guest and the cyclodextrin molecules in solution.     

Preparation and evaluation of inclusion complexes of diacerein with β-cyclodextrin and hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin

The objective of this research was to improve the aqueous solubility, dissolution rate and, consequently, bioavailability of diacerein, along with avoiding its side effect of diarrhea, by complexation with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and HP-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD). Phase solubility curve was classified as an A_N type for both the CDs, which indicated formation of complex of diacerein with β-CD and HP-β-CD in 1:1 stoichiometry and demonstrating that both CDs are proportionally less effective at higher concentrations. The complexes were prepared by kneading method and were evaluated to study the effect of complexation on aqueous solubility and rate of dissolution in phosphate buffer (pH 6.8). Based on the dissolution profile HP-β-CD was selected for preparing fast disintegrating tablet of diacerein which was compared with marketed formulation (MF-J). The HP-β-CD complex was probed for Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and powder X-ray diffraction studies which evidenced stable complex formation and increase in amorphousness of diacerein in complex. In brief, the characterization studies confirmed the inclusion of diacerein within the non-polar cavity of HP-β-CD. HP-β-CD complex showed improved in vitro drug release profile compared to pure drug and similar to that of marketed formulation respectively.     

Characterization of the inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin with sorbic acid in the solid state and in aqueous solution

Crystal structure of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) complexes with sorbic acid, usually as food preservative, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 113 K. The space group of β-cyclodextrin-sorbic acid complex is P1 with unit cell dimensions of a = 15.284(3) Å, b = 15.402(3) Å, c = 17.981(4) Å, α = 99.67(3)°, β = 112.83(3)°, γ = 102.48(3)° and Z = 1. The result indicates that the β-CD molecules form head-to-head dimers which pack in the intermediate mode. Each dimer contains two guest molecules whose methyl groups are located at the dimer interface while the carboxyl groups protrude from the β-CD primary faces. Water molecules (25.5) are distributed outside the cyclodextrin cavity over 31 sites. Furthermore, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H NMR) has been employed to investigate the inclusion behavior between the host β-CD and guest sorbic acid in aqueous solution. The results obtained enabled us to structurally characterize the β-CD inclusion complex with sorbic acid.     

Spectroscopic studies of inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin and benzidine diammonium dipicrate

Formation of inclusion complex between benzidine diammonium dipicrate and β-cyclodextrin with stoichiometry 1:2 (guest–host) has been established by UV, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR spectra and powder X-ray diffractometry. ¹H NMR studies are used to confirm the inclusion and to provide information on the geometry of dipicrate inside the cavity of β-cyclodextrin.     

Solid state characterization of the inclusion complex of valsartan with methyl β-cyclodextrin

In this work, we illustrate the usefulness of cyclodextrins, namely, methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD), an amorphous, methylated derivative of the natural β-cyclodextrin, as a tool to form an inclusion complex with Valsartan (VAL), a poorly water soluble drug. The phase solubility study showed A_L type of curve with slope less than one indicating the formation of complexes in 1:1 molar ratio of drug and CD. The stability constant was found to be 538.14 ± 5.4 Mole^?1. Solid binary systems between VAL and MβCD were prepared experimentally in a stoichiometry 1:1 by different techniques (physical mixing, kneading, co-evaporation). Afterward these products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ¹H Nuclear magnetic resonance study (¹H NMR). The results obtained suggested that co-evaporation methods yield a higher degree of amorphous entities suggesting the formation of inclusion complex between VAL and MβCD. The dissolution of VAL from the binary systems was studied to select the most appropriate system for the formulation development. It was concluded that the preparation technique played an important role in the dissolution behavior of the drug and the inclusion complex between VAL and MβCD obtained by co-evaporation method allowed better performance.     

Antibacterial modification of cellulose fibers by grafting β-cyclodextrin and inclusion with ciprofloxacin

Antibacterial-modified cellulose fiber was prepared by covalently bonding β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) with cellulose fiber via citric acid (CA) as crosslinking agent, followed by the inclusion of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CipHCl) as antibiotic. Effects of reaction time, temperature, concentration of β-cyclodextrin citrate (CA-β-CD) and pH on the grafting reaction were investigated, and the grafting ratio of β-CD onto cellulose fibers was 9.7 % at optimal conditions; the loading and releasing behaviors of CipHCl into/from β-CD grafted cellulose fibers were also revealed, the load amount of CipHCl into grafted cellulose fibers increased remarkably, and the release of CipHCl from the grafted cellulose fibers was prolonged. The microstructure, phase and thermal stability of modified cellulose fibers were characterized by FT-IR, ¹³C CPMAS NMR, X-ray diffraction and TGA. Considerably longer bacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus was observed for grafted fibers loading CipHCl compared to virgin ones. Optical and mechanical properties of the paper sheets decreased generally with more antibacterial-modified fibers added.     

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.     

Investigation of the inclusion complex of tolfenamic acid with β-cyclodextrin: Geometry and NBO analysis

Quantum chemical calculations were carried out to investigate geometry and driving forces for inclusion complexes of tolfenamic acid (TA) into β-CD (at 1:1 stoichiometry). Two possible orientations of TA in the β-CD cavity were considered. Both PM3MM and ONIOM2 method evidence that TA is encapsulated in the β-CD cavity for A and B orientation. Finally, charge transfer between the donor and acceptor orbitals of each TA and β-CD play an important role to stabilize the inclusion complex.

¹H NMR spectroscopy was used to probe the formation of inclusion compounds of permethylated and peracetylated ß-cyclodextrins as host molecules and a variety of electronically very different guest molecules. Complexation, obtained only in water, was estimated quantitatively by means of chemical shift/concentration curves of relevant protons, and the intermolecular forces involved are criticially discussed.     

Study of inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin and diphenylamine: photophysical and electrochemical behaviors

The photophysical, electrochemical and photoprototropic behaviors of diphenylamine (DPA) in aqueous β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) solution have been investigated using absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetric techniques. Absorption of the neutral and cationic form of DPA is enhanced due to the formation of a 1:1 complex with β-CD. The formation of this complex has been confirmed by Benesi-Hildebrand plot and docking studies by RasMol tool methods. The solid complex of β-CD with DPA is investigated by FT-IR, XRD and AFM methods. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) of inclusion process are also determined. The pK(a) values of neutral-monocation equilibria have been determined with absorption (conjugate acid-base) titrations. A mechanism is proposed to explain the inclusion process.

Inclusion complex formation between pyridoxine and - and -cyclodextrins in aqueous solution has been investigated by¹H NMR and UV spectroscopy. Both complexes exhibited a 1:1 stoichiometry and the inclusion process has been shown to perturb the equilibrium between the lactim and the lactam tautomer of pyridoxine, with a preferential inclusion of the former, less polar tautomer.     

Quantum chemical study of the host-guest inclusion complexes of the local anaesthetic drugs, procaine hydrochloride and butacaine hydrochloride, with α- and β-cyclodextrins

Quantum mechanical (QM) calculations were carried out in order to study the host-guest inclusion complexes of procaine hydrochloride (Pro-H) and butacaine hydrochloride (But-H) with α- and β-cyclodextrins (α- and β-CDs) by PM3 and AM1 methods. The systems were studied by a 1:1 (α-CD/Pro-H, α-CD/But-H, β-CD/Pro-H, and β-CD/But-H) stoichiometric ratio. In this work we calculated the energy of complex formation in vacuo, and this investigation was carried out on the basis of the host-guest approach. The stabilization energy results for the 1:1 host-guest inclusion complexes indicate that the β-CD/Pro-H complex is more stable than the α-CD/Pro-H complex. Furthermore, stabilization energy for the 1:1 inclusion complex of α-CD with But-H is lower than that for the 1:1 inclusion complex of β-CD with But-H. The calculation results show that all complexation processes for the four complexes are exothermic. Enthalpy changes for the α-CD/But-H and β-CD/Pro-H host-guest inclusion complexes are more negative than those for the other ones. ΔG ^o values for both the β-CD/Pro-H and α-CD/But-H complexes are negative. Correspondence: S. M.
