Structure of the inclusion complex of beta-cyclodextrin with 1,12-dodecanedioic acid using synchrotron radiation data; a detailed dimeric beta-cyclodextrin structure

A detailed crystal structure study of the dimeric inclusion complex of beta-cyclodextrin (betaCD) with 1,12-dodecanedioic acid is presented [IUPAC name: beta-cyclodextrin-1,12-dodecanedioic acid (2/1)]. The structure was solved with synchrotron high-resolution data (0.65 A) at 100 K [crystal data: P1, Z= 1, a = 18.153 (7), b = 15.456 (8), c = 15.251 (4) A, alpha = 102.81 (2), beta = 113.13 (2), gamma = 99.90 (3)degrees, V = 3,673 (3) A3, R = 0.0474 for 25,134 unique reflections with I > 2sigma(I)]. Moreover, the room-temperature structure is used for comparison [crystal data: P1, Z = 1, a = 18.220 (3), b = 15.488 (3), c = 15.409 (3) A, alpha = 102.903 (6), beta = 113.122 (5), gamma = 99.708 (5)degrees, V = 3735.2 (12) A3, R = 0.0828 for 8,235 unique reflections with I > 2sigma(I)]. Combining the high-resolution data and the low-temperature made possible the location of the disordered guest molecule, 1,12-dodecanedioic acid, inside the wide cavity of the macrocycle formed by two betaCD monomers. Moreover, almost all the H atoms of the betaCD macrocycle and many of the water molecules have been located in the low-temperature structure. Thus, for the first time, it has been possible to show in detail, up to now only given by neutron diffraction data, that two betaCD monomers self-assemble through O3...O3 intermolecular hydrogen bonds to form the betaCD dimer, as well as describe the hydrogen-bonding scheme between the dimer's hydroxyl groups among themselves and with water molecules in the lattice. The long guest threads through two host molecules forming a [3]pseudorotaxane. Its polar carboxyl groups, fully hydrated at the primary faces of the betaCD dimers, influence their packing so that those faces are exposed to the solvent. This is in contrast to the packing of the beta-cyclodextrin complexes of the corresponding aliphatic monoacids, where the dimeric complexes form channels in order to isolate the terminal methyl group from the water environment of the lattice.

Heptakis(2-O-methyl-3,6-di-O-sulfo)-beta-cyclodextrin: a single isomer, 14-sulfated beta-cyclodextrin for use as a chiral resolving agent in capillary electrophoresis.

The first single-isomer, 14-sulfated beta-cyclodextrin, the sodium salt of heptakis(2-O-methyl-3,6-di-O-sulfo)-beta-cyclodextrin (HMdiSu) has been used to separate 24 pharmaceutical weak base enantiomers in pH 2.5 background electrolytes using capillary electrophoresis. For the weakly binding bases, the cationic effective mobilities decreased, approached zero, and then increased again. For the strongly binding bases, the cationic effective mobilities decreased, became anionic at very low concentrations of HMdiSu, passed an anionic mobility maximum, then decreased again as the HMdiSu concentration was increased. Viscosity corrections according to Walden's rule did not eliminate these unexpected effective mobility extrema. The mobility extrema were rationalized by extending the charged resolving agent migration model (CHARM model) to include ionic strength effects.

A family of single-isomer, sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin chiral resolving agents for capillary electrophoresis: octa(6-O-sulfo)-gamma-cyclodextrin.

The second member of the single-isomer, sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin family, the sodium salt of octa(6-O-sulfo)-gamma-cyclodextrin (OS) has been synthesized, characterized and used to separate the enantiomers of nonelectrolyte, acidic, basic, and ampholytic analytes by capillary electrophoresis in acidic aqueous background electrolytes. The anionic effective mobilities of the nonelectrolyte and anionic analytes increased with increasing concentration of OS. The effective mobilities of strongly complexing cationic analytes became anionic with very low OS concentrations and passed local anionic effective mobility maxima as the OS concentration, and along with it, the ionic strength, of the background electrolyte increased. The effective mobilities of the weakly binding cationic analytes became only slightly anionic at high OS concentration values and did not show the local anionic effective mobility maxima. For nonelectrolyte analytes, separation selectivities decreased with increasing OS concentration. For cationic analytes, separation selectivities were highest where the effective mobilities of the less mobile enantiomers approached zero. OS proved to be a broadly applicable chiral resolving agent.

Physical properties of the complexes formed between heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin, beta-cyclodextrin, and chlorambucil.

The solid complex of chlorambucil (CHL) and heptakis-(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (DIMEB) has been isolated from ethanol and analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and powder X-ray diffractometry. The carbonyl stretching band of the complex, observed in the FTIR spectrum, was shifted to higher frequency, suggesting that intermolecular hydrogen bonds between CHL molecules are broken when the complex is formed. Since no melting endotherm was observed for CHL when the DSC thermogram of the complex was obtained, the crystal lattice of the compound must be disrupted upon complexation. X-ray diffraction patterns of the inclusion complex were different from those of the physical mixture and contained no peaks corresponding to free CHL, thus indicating the formation of a new crystalline material. The 1:1 CHL:beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) complex was isolated from aqueous solution at 3 degrees C. Results of analyses using FTIR and DSC were similar to those obtained with the CHL:DIMEB complex. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the complex suggest that its degree of crystallinity is higher than that of the CHL:DIMEB complex.

Replacement of an amino acid residue of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase of Bacillus ohbensis doubles the production of gamma-cyclodextrin.

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase; EC 2.4.1.19) produces cyclodextrin (CD) from starch through an intramolecular transglucosylation reaction. To obtain a better understanding of the amylolytic and cyclization mechanisms of CGTase, and furthermore to improve the production of gamma-CD, mutant CGTases were constructed by site-directed mutagenesis of the CGTase gene of Bacillus ohbensis replacing Tyr at position 188 by 19 other amino acids. All mutant enzymes retained both starch-degrading and CD synthesizing activities to various extents. Among them, a mutant enzyme having Trp instead of Tyr-188 produced 15% of gamma-CD from soluble starch, which is about twice as much as the amount produced by the wild-type enzyme.

Chromatographic determination of the association constant between 8-methoxypsoralen and modified beta-cyclodextrin: protective effect of hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin on 8-methoxypsoralen toxicity in human keratinocytes.

The retention of 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) on an immobilised hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD) column was analysed in HPLC by the determination of its Langmuir distribution isotherm. A such method was used to confirm the potential drug complexing role of this cyclodextrin. The 8-MOP/HP-beta-CD association constant (K) was equal to 29.5 and 18.7 M-1, respectively, at a temperature equal to 5 and 25 degrees C, respectively. These association constant values were used to determine the cytotoxicity profile of human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) in relation to the complex concentration. It was showed through these data that HP-beta-CD had a cytoprotective since a reverse effect of HP-beta-CD on 8-MOP cytotoxicity was observed.

Preparation and characterization of inclusion complexes of prazosin hydrochloride with beta-cyclodextrin and hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin.

The slightly water-soluble drug prazosin hydrochloride (PRH) and its inclusion with either beta-cyclodextrin (betaCD) or hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPbetaCD) were investigated. The phase solubility profiles of PRH with betaCD and HPbetaCD were classified as B(s)- and A(L)-types, respectively. Stability constants with 1:1 molar ratio were calculated from the phase solubility diagrams and the solubility of PRH could be enhanced by 27.6% for betaCD and 226.4% for HPbetaCD, respectively. Binary systems of PRH with betaCD or HPbetaCD prepared by various methods were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transformation-infrared spectroscopy. It could be concluded that PRH could form inclusion complex with either betaCD or HPbetaCD. The dissolution profiles of inclusion complexes were determined and compared with those of PRH alone and their physical mixtures. The dissolution rate of PRH was increased by betaCD and HPbetaCD inclusion complexation remarkably. Both the preparation technique and nature of the carriers played important roles in the dissolution performance of the systems. All the systems with HPbetaCD showed better performance than the corresponding ones with betaCD.

Determination of association constants of beta-cyclodextrin and beta-cyclodextrin-bearing polymers with drugs by high-performance liquid chromatography.

A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) support was prepared, based on silica beads coated with a beta-cyclodextrin-containing polymer, which allows the elution of solutes in order of their affinity for beta-cyclodextrin. Binding constants were determined from the retention data for drugs eluted with pure buffer on the new support and good agreement was observed with results obtained by the Hummel and Dreyer method, previously used in HPLC studies of drug-protein interactions.

A family of single-isomer, sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin chiral resolving agents for capillary electrophoresis. 1. Octakis(2,3-diacetyl-6-sulfato)-gamma-cyclodextrin.

The first member of the single-isomer, sulfated gamma-cyclodextrin family, the sodium salt of octakis(2,3-diacetyl-6-sulfato)-gamma-cyclodextrin (ODAS-gamma CD) has been synthesized, analytically characterized, and used to separate, by capillary electrophoresis, a variety of neutral, acidic, basic, and amphoteric enantiomers in low pH background electrolytes. The anionic effective mobilities of the neutral and anionic analytes were found to increase with the concentration of ODAS-gamma CD. For weakly binding cationic analytes, the effective mobilities went from cationic high values, through zero, to increasingly larger anionic values as the concentration of ODAS-gamma CD was increased. For the strongly complexing cationic analytes, the effective mobilities became anionic even at very low ODAS-gamma CD concentrations and became smaller as the ionic strength of the background electrolyte increased with the increasing ODAS-gamma CD concentration. Separation selectivity followed the predictions of the charged resolving agent migration model: for neutral analytes it decreased as the concentration of ODAS-gamma CD was increased. For cationic analytes, selectivities were found to increase as the cationic effective mobilities approached zero, then decreased as the concentration of ODAS-gamma CD was increased further. The extent of peak resolution that could be realized with ODAS-gamma CD strongly depended on the magnitude of separation selectivity and the normalized electroosmotic flow mobility. ODAS-gamma CD proved to be a broadly applicable chiral resolving agent.

Structure of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase complexed with a derivative of its main product beta-cyclodextrin.

Crystals of the inactive mutant Glu257-->Ala of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase were soaked with the cyclodextrin (CD) derivative S-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-6-thio-beta-CD. The structural analysis showed its beta-CD moiety with no density indication for the exocyclic glucosyl unit. For steric reasons, however, the position of this unit is restricted to be at only two of the seven glucosyl groups of beta-CD. The analysis indicated that the enzyme can cyclize branched alpha-glucans. The ligated beta-CD moiety revealed how the enzyme binds its predominant cyclic product. The conformation of the ligated beta-CD was intermediate between the more symmetrical conformation in beta-CD dodecahydrate crystals and the conformation of a bound linear alpha-glucan chain. Its scissile bond was displaced by 2.8 A from the position in linear alpha-glucans. Accordingly, the complex represents the situation after the cyclization reaction but before diffusion into the solvent, where a more symmetrical conformation is assumed, or the equivalent state in the reverse reaction. Furthermore, a unifying nomenclature for oligosaccharide-binding subsites in proteins is proposed.

Molecular recognition in cyclodextrin complexes of amino acid derivatives. 1. Crystallographic studies of beta-cyclodextrin complexes with N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester and N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine amide pseudopeptides.

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are widely utilized in studies of chiral and molecular recognition. By changing the functionality of the guest molecule, the effect of such changes on recognition by the host CD molecule can be examined. We report crystal structure determinations for two nearly isomorphous complexes of phenylalanine derivatives: beta-CD/N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester and beta-CD/N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine amide. The complexes crystallize as hydrated head-to-head host dimers with two included guest molecules in space group P1. The crystal packing is such that it presents a nonconstraining hydrophobic pocket adjacent to a hydrophilic region, where potential hydrogen-bonding interactions with hydroxyl groups of neighboring cyclodextrin molecules and waters of hydration can occur. The two host molecules display very similar conformations; only a few of the primary hydroxyl groups are conformationally disordered. There are a number of changes in the location of water of hydration molecules, some of which are the result of different hydrogen-bonding interactions. For the different guest molecules, similar modes of penetration are observed in the CD torus; however, there is a 0.985-A shift in the position of the guest molecules in the host torus, which takes place without changing the hydrophobic interactions displayed by the phenyl side chains. This observation and the thermal motion of the guest molecules in the ester complex are taken as evidence that complex binding forces are weak. The pseudopeptides experience a significant degree of flexibility in the crystalline environment provided by CD dimers. Conformational differences of the pseudopeptide backbones and the presence of disordered water molecules in the host-guest interface provide examples of different hydrogen-bonding schemes of similar potential energy. The crystal system presents an opportunity to establish a database of molecular interactions for small peptides and peptide analogues with waters of hydration and functional groups in nonconstraining binding environments.

Spectroscopic anatomy of molecular-imprinting of cyclodextrin. Evidence for preferential formation of ordered cyclodextrin assemblies.

The processes of molecular-imprinting of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CyD) with cholesterol and stigmasterol (cross-linking agent = diisocyanate) have been analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectroscopy. These templates enormously promote the formation of dimers and trimers of beta-CyD, which are only inefficiently formed in their absence. These ordered assemblies are the guest-binding sites, in which two or three beta-CyD molecules cooperate to bind large steroids. Ordered assemblies are also formed when 2,6-di-O-methyl-beta-cyclodextrin is used in place of beta-CyD. Direct spectroscopic evidence for molecular-imprinting effect has been obtained. Molecular imprinting of CyDs is potent for tailor-made preparation of synthetic receptors for nanometer-scaled guests.

Selection between pinching-type and supramolecular polymer-type complexes by alpha-cyclodextrin-beta-cyclodextrin hetero-dimer and hetero-cinnamamide guest dimers.

Novel supramolecular complexes have been prepared from an alpha-cyclodextrin-beta-cyclodextrin hetero-dimer (alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer) and hetero-cinnamamide guest dimers, G-t-Boc and G-NH2, having adamantyl groups in aqueous solutions. On addition of the competitive guest, the supramolecular structure formed by a mixture of the alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer and G-t-Boc was found to be different from that of a mixture of the alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer and G-NH2 by the 1H NMR spectroscopy, the ROESY NMR spectroscopy, and the circular dichroism spectroscopy. The size of the supramolecular complex from the mixture of the alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer and G-NH2 is larger than that from the mixture of the alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer and G-t-Boc, which was proved by the pulse field gradient spin-echo NMR and the atomic force microscopy. These results suggest that the mixture of the alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer and G-t-Boc formed a pinching-type complex, and the mixture of the alpha-CD-beta-CD hetero-dimer and G-NH2 formed a supramolecular polymer-type complex.

Binding of sodium salicylate by beta-cyclodextrin or 2,6-di-O-methyl-beta-cyclodextrin in aqueous solution.

Speed of sound and conductivity experiments have been done at 298.15 K to study the encapsulation process of sodium salicylate (NaSA) by beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and 2,6-di-O-methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (DIMEB) in aqueous solutions. Since the concentration of the salicyclic form (HSA), coming from the hydrolysis of SA-, is negligible at biological pH, the binding process studied in this work is that of the SA- species. The stoichiometries of the complexes DIMEB: SA- and beta-CD:SA- have been found to be 1:1, as usually determined for most CD:drug complexes. Their association constants and their ionic molar conductivities at infinite dilution have been obtained by fitting the experimental conductivity data with a nonlinear regression method (NLR). For that purpose, a model based on that of Gelb and co-workers has been used. From the values of K beta-CD:SA- = (105 +/- 15)M-1 and KDIMEB:SA- = (140 +/- 20)M-1 obtained, the bioavailability of the salicylate drug in the complexed form has been discussed.

Formation of fine drug particles by cogrinding with cyclodextrins. I. The use of beta-cyclodextrin anhydrate and hydrate.

PURPOSE: To improve the micromeritical properties of pranlukast (PRK) hydrate, a cogrinding process with cyclodextrin was used, and the formation of fine drug particles was investigated. METHODS: PRK crystals were ground with either beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) anhydrate or beta-CD hydrate crystals at a mixing molar ratio of 2:1 (beta-CD:PRK) to prepare the ground mixtures (GMs). Powder X-ray diffraction measurement and particle size analysis were performed. RESULTS: The two GMs differed from one another in appearance, wettability, and fine particle production. Quantitative determination demonstrated that when the beta-CD hydrate/PRK GM was dispersed in water, 96% of PRK loaded in GM became fine particles smaller than 0.8 microm. In contrast, only 1.4% of PRK in GM transformed to fine particles in the case of beta-CD anhydrate/PRK GM. The PRK fine particles were considered to be dispersed as small crystals. The stability of PRK particles in the aqueous solution was improved by the addition of a water-soluble polymer. CONCLUSION: Cogrinding with a beta-CD of higher water content can be an effective method to prepare fine drug particles at the submicron level.

Chiral discrimination in cyclodextrin complexes of amino acid derivatives: beta-cyclodextrin/N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine and N-acetyl-D-phenylalanine complexes.

In a systematic study of molecular recognition of amino acid derivatives in solid-state beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) complexes, we have determined crystal structures for complexes of beta-cyclodextrin/N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine at 298 and 20 K and for N-acetyl-D-phenylalanine at 298 K. The crystal structures for the N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine complex present disordered inclusion complexes for which the distribution of guest molecules at room temperature is not resolvable; however, they can be located with considerable confidence at low temperature. In contrast, the complex with N-acetyl-D-phenylalanine is well ordered at room temperature. The latter complex presents an example of a complex in this series in which a water molecule is included deeply in the hydrophobic torus of the extended dimer host. In an effort to understand the mechanisms of molecular recognition giving rise to the dramatic differences in crystallographic order in these crystal structures, we have examined the intermolecular interactions in detail and have examined insertion of the enantiomer of the D-complex into the chiral beta-CD complex crystal lattice.
