Smart regioselectivity towards mono 6-hydroxyl α-cyclodextrin amphiphilic derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Following the trend of eco-friendly development, a smart regioselective modification is described herein, for mono 6-hydroxyl and penta-alkyl coexistence on the primary face of α-cyclodextrins with no additional catalysis or no enzyme process, just via the adjustment of the ratio of alkali to alkylation agent, with good yields. The novel procedure minimized the tedious protection, deprotection steps and provided useful intermediates for further cutting edge research. Thus, the scope of green and economical access is extended from penta-pentenyl substitution to C₄-C₆ alkyl group substitution. It was speculated that the mechanism might be controlled by the concentration of alkali in the system and the steric effects of the electrophilic reagent RBr.

Smart control of guest inclusion by α-cyclodextrin using its hydration history.

Project description:Hydration history was found to control the inclusion capacity of α-cyclodextrin (aCD) for volatile organic guests, so that its level may be switched from zero to the stoichiometric value and back by the variation of aCD hydration/dehydration order and direction. Such variation of the inclusion capacity is caused by the balance of two water roles: the activation of guest inclusion and guest/water competition. These observed concurrent roles and the cooperativity of guest inclusion and hydration make possible the smart tuning of the guest inclusion by the subtle change of preparation procedure. Depending on the hydration history, aCD was shown to form hydrates with the same water contents but different packing types and different kinetics of dehydration, which correlates with their different inclusion capacities for organic guests. This correlation reveals how the "high-energy" and "low-energy" water works in the guest inclusion by aCD, which may be relevant for other cyclodextrins and hydrophilic receptors of biomimetic and biological natures. The results can help to rationalize the technologies of producing various inclusion compounds of cyclodextrins.

Qualitative evaluation of regioselectivity in the formation of di- and tri-6-O-tritylates of α-cyclodextrin.

Project description:The quantitative analysis of reaction products showed that the reaction of 6(A),6(D)-di-O-trityl-α-cyclodextrin (CD), AD-isomer, with trityl chloride in pyridine at 55 °C gave 6(A),6(B),6(E)-tri-O-trityl-α-CD, the amount of which was only 25% of that of simultaneously formed 6(A),6(B),6(D)-tri-O-trityl-α-CD. This indicates that the bulky trityl groups of glucopyranose-A and -D (Glu-A and -D, respectively) in the AD-isomer mainly retard the additional tritylation of the C(6)-OH of the adjacent glucopyranoses in a counter-clockwise direction (Glu-F and -C, respectively). (1)H NMR spectra of the AD-isomer showed that the O(6)-H and C(6)-H signals of Glu-C and -F are shifted upfield due to the ring current of the trityl groups. Thus, it is concluded that the bulky trityl groups on Glu-A and Glu-D are oriented to Glu-F and Glu-C, respectively, and sterically retard additional tritylation on Glu-F and Glu-C. Similar steric hindrance was also observed in the additional tritylations of mono-6-O-trityl-α-CD, 6(A),6(B)-di- and 6(A),6(C)-di-O-trityl-α-CD's.

New α- and β-cyclodextrin derivatives with cinchona alkaloids used in asymmetric organocatalytic reactions.

Project description:The preparation of new organocatalysts for asymmetric syntheses has become a key stage of enantioselective catalysis. In particular, the development of new cyclodextrin (CD)-based organocatalysts allowed to perform enantioselective reactions in water and to recycle catalysts. However, only a limited number of organocatalytic moieties and functional groups have been attached to CD scaffolds so far. Cinchona alkaloids are commonly used to catalyze a wide range of enantioselective reactions. Thus, in this study, we report the preparation of new α- and β-CD derivatives monosubstituted with cinchona alkaloids (cinchonine, cinchonidine, quinine and quinidine) on the primary rim through a CuAAC click reaction. Subsequently, permethylated analogs of these cinchona alkaloid-CD derivatives also were synthesized and the catalytic activity of all derivatives was evaluated in several enantioselective reactions, specifically in the asymmetric allylic amination (AAA), which showed a promising enantiomeric excess of up to 75% ee. Furthermore, a new disubstituted α-CD catalyst was prepared as a pure AD regioisomer and also tested in the AAA. Our results indicate that (i) the cinchona alkaloid moiety can be successfully attached to CD scaffolds through a CuAAC reaction, (ii) the permethylated cinchona alkaloid-CD catalysts showed better results than the non-methylated CDs analogues in the AAA reaction, (iii) promising enantiomeric excesses are achieved, and (iv) the disubstituted CD derivatives performed similarly to monosubstituted CDs. Therefore, these new CD derivatives with cinchona alkaloids effectively catalyze asymmetric allylic aminations and have the potential to be successfully applied in other enantioselective reactions.

Comparative Interaction Studies of Quercetin with 2-Hydroxyl-propyl-β-cyclodextrin and 2,6-Methylated-β-cyclodextrin.

Project description:Quercetin (QUE) is a well-known natural product that can exert beneficial properties on human health. However, due to its low solubility its bioavailability is limited. In the present study, we examine whether its formulation with two cyclodextrins (CDs) may enhance its pharmacological profile. Comparative interaction studies of quercetin with 2-hydroxyl-propyl-β-cyclodextrin (2HP-β-CD) and 2,6-methylated cyclodextrin (2,6Me-β-CD) were performed using NMR spectroscopy, DFT calculations, and in silico molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Using T1 relaxation experiments and 2D DOSY it was illustrated that both cyclodextrin vehicles can host quercetin. Quantum mechanical calculations showed the formation of hydrogen bonds between QUE with 2HP-β-CD and 2,6Μe-β-CD. Six hydrogen bonds are formed ranging between 2 to 2.8 Å with 2HP-β-CD and four hydrogen bonds within 2.8 Å with 2,6Μe-β-CD. Calculations of absolute binding free energies show that quercetin binds favorably to both 2,6Me-β-CD and 2HP-β-CD. MM/GBSA results show equally favorable binding of quercetin in the two CDs. Fluorescence spectroscopy shows moderate binding of quercetin in 2HP-β-CD (520 M-1) and 2,6Me-β-CD (770 M-1). Thus, we propose that both formulations (2HP-β-CD:quercetin, 2,6Me-β-CD:quercetin) could be further explored and exploited as small molecule carriers in biological studies.

Effects of Hydroxyl Group on the Interaction of Carboxylated Flavonoid Derivatives with S. Cerevisiae α-Glucosidase.

Project description:IntroductionCarboxyalkyl flavonoids derivatives are considered as effective inhibitors in reducing post-prandial hyperglycaemia.MethodsCombined with Density Functional Theory (DFT) and the theory of Atoms in Molecules (AIM), molecular docking and charge density analysis are carried out to understand the molecular flexibility, charge density distribution and the electrostatic properties of these carboxyalkyl derivatives.ResultsResults show that the electron density of the chemical bond C14-O17 on B ring of molecule II increases while O17-H18 decreases at the active site, suggesting the existence of weak noncovalent interactions, most prominent of which are H-bonding and electrostatic interaction. When hydroxyl groups are introduced, the highest positive electrostatic potentials are distributed near the B ring hydroxyl hydrogen atom and the carboxyl hydrogen atom on the A ring. It was reported that quercetin has a considerably inhibitory activity to S. cerevisiae α-glucosidase, from the binding affinities, it is suggested that the position and number of hydroxyl groups on the B and C rings are also pivotal to the hypoglycemic activity when the long carboxyalkyl group is introduced into the A ring.ConclusionIt is concluded that the presence of three well-defined zones in the structure, both hydrophobicity alkyl, hydrophilicity carboxyl and hydroxyl groups are necessary.

Electrospinning of Cyclodextrin-Oligolactide Derivatives.

Project description:The materials used for the preparation of electrospun mats exhibit a large variety. Among them, cyclodextrins (CDs) and their derivatives have received thorough attention. Herein, we focus on the preparation of electrospun fibers based on biodegradable cyclodextrin-oligolactide (CDLA) derivatives, which may be qualified as polymer-free cyclodextrin. CDLA was prepared by ring opening of L-lactide initiated by the β-cyclodextrin. A clear structural image of the high-purity CDLA product was proved by MALDI MS. Preparation of the electrospun mats was optimized by taking into consideration the electrospinning parameters such as applied voltage, needle-to-collector distance, flow rate, the concentration of cyclodextrin solutions, and solvent type. The obtained electrospun fibers were morphologically characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). SEM allowed the optimization of the electrospinning process to obtain beadless fibers with submicronic diameters. Further analysis by TEM and SAXS revealed the inner structural features of the CDLA-based filaments. Our results showed that the high purity CDLA materials, structurally well-defined at the molecular level, are suitable for the preparation of electrospun mats by using dimethylformamide or a water/acetonitrile mixture as electrospinning solvents, similar to lower molecular weight commercial cyclodextrin derivatives.

Enhanced single-isomer separation and pseudoenantiomer resolution of new primary rim heterobifunctionalized α-cyclodextrin derivatives.

Project description:The synthesis of batch-to-batch reproducible cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives often requires functionalization at specific positions of the CD skeleton. However, the regioselective preparation of this type of CD derivatives remains a challenge in synthetic chemistry. Thus, the present study aimed to prepare all positional regioisomers on the primary rim of homobifunctionalized diazido-α-CDs by selective substitution on the primary rim. Specifically, three positional regioisomers 6A,6B-, 6A,6C-, and 6A,6D-diazido-α-CDs were prepared via different intermediates (using sulfonylation with capping agents, bromination and tosylation). Furthermore, heterobifunctionalized 6A-azido-6X-mesitylenesulfonyl-α-CDs were also synthesized, and all regioisomers were successfully separated by HPLC. Moreover, the heterobifunctionalized α-CD regioisomers were isolated in gram-scale quantities, isomers AB and AC in the form of a pseudoenantiomeric mixture. The pseudoenantiomers AC/CA and AB/BA were resolved on an analytical scale by HPLC-MS at 10 °C. Thus, the presented synthetic and analytical methods for homo- and heterodisubstituted α-CDs are efficient and reproducible for the preparation of various pure regioisomeric CD derivatives. Accordingly, our findings indicate, (i) the versatility of selectively modified azido and mesitylene CD skeletons in preparing new types of α-CD derivatives and (ii) the potential of using resolved α-CD pseudoenantiomers in other research fields such as organocatalysis.

Amphiphilic cationic cyclodextrin nanovesicles: a versatile cue for guiding cell adhesion.

Project description:It is well known that amphiphilic cationic β-cyclodextrins (amβCDs) form nanovesicles able to release their cargo in aqueous solution upon applying different stimuli. In addition they can be selectively positioned onto substrates by unconventional soft lithography. This makes them a powerful tool for designing environments where different cues can be externally supplied to the cells helping to achieve good control of their fate. Lithographically controlled wetting (LCW) of amβCD nanovesicles loaded with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), amβCD/FITC, has been used here to fabricate geometrically functionalized surfaces, thus achieving multiscale control of the cell environment. The amβCD functionalization was strongly influenced by the surface energy of the underlying substrates that, according to their hydrophobicity, orient the amβCD in a different way, thus "offering" different portions to the cells. The structure of the pattern was characterized both over large scales exploiting the FITC fluorescence and at the nanoscale by atomic force microscopy. Cell guidance and aCD/FITC cell internalization were demonstrated in human neuroblastoma SHSY5Y cells.

Cyclodextrin⁻Amphiphilic Copolymer Supramolecular Assemblies for the Ocular Delivery of Natamycin.

Project description:Natamycin is the only drug approved for fungal keratitis treatment, but its low water solubility and low ocular penetration limit its efficacy. The purpose of this study was to overcome these limitations by encapsulating the drug in single or mixed micelles and poly(pseudo)rotaxanes. Soluplus and Pluronic P103 dispersions were prepared in 0.9% NaCl and pH 6.4 buffer, with or without α-cyclodextrin (αCD; 10% w/v), and characterized through particle size, zeta potential, solubilization efficiency, rheological properties, ocular tolerance, in vitro drug diffusion, and ex vivo permeation studies. Soluplus micelles (90-103 nm) and mixed micelles (150-110 nm) were larger than Pluronic P103 ones (16-20 nm), but all showed zeta potentials close to zero. Soluplus, Pluronic P103, and their mixed micelles increased natamycin solubility up to 6.00-fold, 3.27-fold, and 2.77-fold, respectively. Soluplus dispersions and poly(pseudo)rotaxanes exhibited in situ gelling capability, and they transformed into weak gels above 30 °C. All the formulations were non-irritant according to Hen's Egg Test on the Chorioallantoic Membrane (HET-CAM) assay. Poly(pseudo)rotaxanes facilitated drug accumulation into the cornea and sclera, but led to lower natamycin permeability through the sclera than the corresponding micelles. Poly(pseudo)rotaxanes made from mixed micelles showed intermediate natamycin diffusion coefficients and permeability values between those of Pluronic P103-based and Soluplus-based poly(pseudo)rotaxanes. Therefore, the preparation of mixed micelles may be a useful tool to regulate drug release and enhance ocular permeability.

Space filling of ?-cyclodextrin and ?-cyclodextrin derivatives by volatile hydrophobic guests.

Project description:The inclusion of volatile derivatives of benzene and cyclohexane in ?-cyclodextrin (?-CD), hydroxypropyl-?-CD, and hydrophilic ?-CD-thioethers was investigated by static headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) and molecular modelling. The obtained binding constants strongly increase with the amount of space filling of the CD cavity and the salt concentration. ?-CD thioethers show a 3-10 times higher binding potential than native ?-CD.
