The complexation efficiency

Studies have shown that cyclodextrins form both inclusion and non-inclusion complexes and that several different types of complexes can coexist in aqueous solutions. In addition, both cyclodextrins and cyclodextrin complexes are known to form aggregates and it is thought that these aggregates are able to solubilize drugs through micellar-type mechanism. Thus, stability constants determined from phase-solubility profiles are rarely true stability constants for of some specific drug/cyclodextrin complexes. A more precise method for evaluation of the solubilizing effects of cyclodextrins is to determine their complexation efficiency (CE). CE can be determined by measuring the solubility of a given drug at 2–3 cyclodextrin concentrations in pure water or a medium constituting the pharmaceutical formulation such as parenteral solution or aqueous eye drop formulation. Based on the CE value the drug:cyclodextrin ratio in the complexation medium can be determined as well as the increase in the formulation bulk in a solid dosage form. Determination of CE is a simple method for quick evaluating the solubilizing effects of different cyclodextrins and/or the effects of excipients on the solubilization. Here we report the CE of 43 different drugs with mainly 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin but also with randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin as well as few other cyclodextrins. Calculation of CE, drug:cyclodextrin molar ratio and the increase in the formulation bulk is discussed, as well as the influence of the intrinsic solubility and drug lipophilicity on the CE.     

Swelling behavior of amphiphilic hydrogels of copolymers of the vinyl ether of ethylene glycol and vinyl isobutyl ether,and their interaction with cationic surfactant

Amphiphilic hydrogels of copolymers of the vinyl ether of ethylene glycol and vinyl isobutyl ether were synthesized by -radiation-induced free radical polymerization. Hydrogels with certain copolymer compositions showed thermo-sensitive behavior in aqueous solutions. The swelling behavior of the hydrogels in cetylpyridinium bromide aqueous solution was studied. Increased swelling of the hydrogels was observed in the surfactant solutions. The increased swelling was more prominent for the hydrogels with a higher content of hydrophobic moiety in the copolymer composition, and with higher surfactant concentration. The reason for this phenomenon is discussed. Treatment of some hydrogels in the surfactant solutions resulted in higher swelling ability in distilled water with distinct thermo-induced contraction over a narrow temperature interval.

Permselective and Preconcentration Properties of a Surfactant‐Intercalated Clay Modified Electrode

This work is focused on the voltammetric examination of the ion exchange properties of a smectite type clay, before and after its modification by the replacement of its native interlamellar cations (Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺) by hexadecyltrimethylammonium cations (HDTMA⁺). The raw clay and its organically modified form were first characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and N₂ adsorption–desorption isotherms (BET method) that confirmed the modification via an intercalation process. These materials were subsequently coated onto glassy carbon surfaces, and the resulting modified electrodes were evaluated for the uptake of [Ru(NH₃)₆]³⁺ and [Fe(CN)₆]^3? ions used as redox probes. Some experimental parameters affecting the incorporation of the probes within the film, including the ionic strength, the surfactant loading and the solution pH are thoroughly examined, in order to highlight the mechanism of the process. The possibility of using the surfactant‐intercalated clay modified electrode as an electrochemical sensor for [Fe(CN)₆]^3? is also evaluated.     

Self‐Assembly,Spectroscopic and Electrochemical Studies of Nickel(II)‐4,8‐Diazaundecanediamide Complex

The self‐assembly of NiCl₂·6H₂O with a diaminodiamide ligand 4,8‐diazaundecanediamide (L‐2,3,2) gave a [Ni(C₉H₂₀N₄O₂)(Cl)(H₂O)] Cl·2H₂O ( 1 ). The structure of 1 was characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Structural data for 1 indicate that the Ni(II) is coordinated to two tertiary N atoms, two O atoms, one water and one chloride in a distorted octahedral geometry. Crystal data for 1: orthorhombic, space group P 21nb, a = 9.5796(3) Å, b = 12.3463(4) Å, c = 14.6305(5) Å, Z = 4. Through NH···Cl–Ni (H···Cl 2.42 Å, N···Cl 3.24 Å, NH···Cl 158°) and OH···Cl–Ni contacts (H···Cl 2.36 Å, O···Cl 3.08 Å, OH···Cl 143°), each cationic moiety [Ni(C₉H₂₀N₄O₂) (Cl)(H₂O)]⁺ in 1 is linked to neighboring ones, producing a charged hydrogen‐bonded 1D chainlike structure. Thermogrametric analysis of compound 1 is consistent with the crystallographic observations. The electronic absorption spectrum of Ni(L‐2,3,2)²⁺ in aqueous solution shows four absorption bands, which are assigned to the ³A_2g → ³T_2g, ³T_2g → ¹Eg, ³T_2g → ³T_1g, and ³A_2g → ³T_1g transitions of triplet‐ground state, distorted octahedral nickel(II) complex. The cyclic volammetric measurement shows that Ni²⁺ is more easily reduced than Ni(L‐2,3,2)²⁺ in aqueous solution.     

Determination of kinetic parameters of polymerizations by differential scanning calorimetry

Differential scanning calorimetry is well suited to record heat productions of chemical and physical processes as data for the following kinetic analysis. To obtain kinetic parameters of complex reactions, nonlinear optimization methods have to be used. Such complex reaction systems are polymerizations. We tried to evaluate measurements of the epoxy cure and the polymerization of β-propiolactame with simple and complex models. In both cases the simple models did not produce satisfactory results. But by using complex models a successful fitting of the measured data was possible. Our investigation shows that the combination of DSC and modern nonlinear evaluation methods presents a suitable tool for the kinetic investigation of polymerizations.     

Complex copper(II) fluorides. XV. The Ternary System BaF2?CuF2?ScF3

The liquid-solid phase diagram of the binary system BaF₂? ScF₃ is established by D.T.A. and radiocrystallography. Three fluorides are disclosed: Ba₃Sc₂F₁₂, Ba₅Sc₃F₁₉ and a cubic high temperature phase Ba_1?xSc_xF_2+x (x = 0.17), the structure of which derives from that of BaF₂. A solid solution between BaF₂ and ScF₃ is also evidenced at high temperature. The ternary system BaF₂? CuF₂? ScF₃ is investigated by radiocrystallography and an isothermal section at 670°C is given. It shows the existence of four phases: a complex quaternary fluoride Ba₁₀Cu₁₂ScF₄₇, two “polytypic” phases the structure of which derives from that of BaCuF₄ and a tetragonal solid solution Ba₅Sc_3?xCu_xF_19?x with 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.     

Titanium and zirconium complexes with novel phenoxy-phosphinimine ligands

A series of novel phenoxy-phosphinimine ligands (L): L = 2-(Ph₂PNR), 4, 6-(CMe₃)₂-C₆H₂OH [2, R = SiMe₃; 3, R = Ph] have been prepared in the yield of 65-71%. And bis(phenoxy-phosphinimide) group 4 complexes of the type L₂MCl₂ [4, M = Ti, R = SiMe₃; 5, M = Zr, R = SiMe₃; 6, M = Ti, R = Ph; 7, M = Zr, R = Ph] have been synthesized by the reaction of the ligands with TiCl₄ and ZrCl₄. The structure of complex 7 has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The complexes 4-7 showed inactive to ethylene polymerization in the presence of modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO) and i-Bu₃Al/Ph₃CB(C₆ F₅)₄. These results should be caused by overdoing the steric congestion around central metal.
