BACKGROUND Evodiamine has gained wide interests recently because of its antitumor activities. However, a superior bioavailability is required to achieve better efficacy due to its poor water solubility. The aim of this study was to enhance the evodiamine's aqueous solubility by preparing evodiamine/hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (EVO/HP-β-CD) inclusion complex, which is incorporated evodiamine in...

Fluorescence study on inclusion interaction of duloxetine in β-cyclodextrin shows significant increase in the fluorescence of duloxetine in the presence of β-cyclodextrin. The effects of pH and cyclodextrin concentration on the fluorescence spectra are reported. Fluorescence spectroscopy of the host-guest interaction between duloxetine and β-cyclodextrin shows formation of inclusion complex wit...

This study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of the inclusion complex of β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) with dicationic ionic liquid, 3,3'-(1,4-Phenylenebis [methylene]) bis(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) di(bromide) (PhenmimBr). The inclusion complex was prepared at room temperature utilizing conventional kneading technique. Proton ((1)H) NMR and 2D ((1)H-(1)H) COSY NMR were the primary charac...

objective(s): the aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the natural and the chemically modified form of cyclodextrins namely; β-cyclodextrin (β-cd) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (hp-β-cd) respectively on the solubility and dissolution rate of aripiprazole; an antipsychotic medication showing poor aqueous solubility.   materials and methods: phase solubility of aripiprazole with t...

Several attempts have been made to improve the solubility of water insoluble drugs. Over the years, inclusion complexation of drugs with β-cyclodextrin has emerged as a viable attempt to improve the dissolution of water insoluble drugs. The aim of the present work was to improve the dissolution rate of lovastatin, a water insoluble drug, by inclusion complexation with β-cyclodextrin. The stoich...

A simple and cost-effective method for the synthesis of sulfated β-cyclodextrin, one most widely used chiral mobile phase additives, using sulfamic acid as a sulfonating agent has been described. The was optimized, synthesized product characterized by spectroscopic, size-exclusion chromatographic, thermal, microscopic methods compared to marketed Sigma Aldrich β-cyclodextrin. β-Cyclodextrin, hy...

The synthesis of the β-cyclodextrin-5-flucytosine inclusion complex in aqueous media has been recently reported, the characterization of the complex proving the complete inclusion of the 5-flucytosine molecule into the β-cyclodextrin cavity. Still, the type of interactions that stabilize the supramolecule and the structure of the complex have been poorly described. The present paper focuses on ...

We report that three-component systems comprising styryl dyes (1 or 2) and two hosts (hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7])) undergo photoinduced transformation and translocation of the styryl guest from the cavity of HP-β-CD to CB[7]. We find that the protonation of guest trans-1 or the addition of Ba(2+) as competitor for CB[7] triggers dissociation of the contain...
