Hydrogen Bond Networks in Binary Mixtures of Water and Organic Solvents.

ABSTRACT: We here present an approach for the optical in situ characterization of hydrogen bond networks (HBNs) in binary mixtures of water and organic solvents (OSs), such as methanol, ethanol, and acetonitrile. HBNs are characterized based on (i) the analysis of experimental molar Raman spectra of the mixture, (ii) partial molar Raman spectra of the mixture constituents, and (iii) computed ideal molar Raman spectra of the mixture. Especially, the consideration of the partial molar Raman spectra provides insights into the development of hydrogen bonds of molecules of one species with their neighbors. The obtained Raman spectra are evaluated with respect to the centroid of the symmetric stretching vibration Raman signal of water and to the hydroxyl stretching vibration of alcohols. We show the influence of composition and temperature on the development of the HBN of the mixtures, the HBN of water, and the HBN of the OS molecules.

Project description:Typically, the synthesis of radiometal-based radiopharmaceuticals is performed in buffered aqueous solutions. We found that the presence of organic solvents like ethanol increased the radiolabeling yields of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA (DOTA = 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacatic acid). In the present study, the effect of organic cosolvents [ethanol (EtOH), isopropyl alcohol, and acetonitrile] on the radiolabeling yields of the macrocyclic chelator DOTA with several trivalent radiometals (gallium-68, scandium-44, and lutetium-177) was systematically investigated. Various binary water (H2O)/organic solvent mixtures allowed the radiolabeling of DOTA at a significantly lower temperature than 95 °C, which is relevant for the labeling of sensitive biological molecules. Simultaneously, much lower amounts of the chelators were required. This strategy may have a fundamental impact on the formulation of trivalent radiometal-based radiopharmaceuticals. The equilibrium properties and formation kinetics of [M(DOTA)]- (MIII= GaIII, CeIII, EuIII, YIII, and LuIII) complexes were investigated in H2O/EtOH mixtures (up to 70 vol % EtOH). The protonation constants of DOTA were determined by pH potentiometry in H2O/EtOH mixtures (0-70 vol % EtOH, 0.15 M NaCl, 25 °C). The log K1H and log K2H values associated with protonation of the ring N atoms decreased with an increase of the EtOH content. The formation rates of [M(DOTA)]- complexes increase with an increase of the pH and [EtOH]. Complexation occurs through rapid formation of the diprotonated [M(H2DOTA)]+ intermediates, which are in equilibrium with the kinetically active monoprotonated [M(HDOTA)] intermediates. The rate-controlling step is deprotonation (and rearrangement) of the monoprotonated intermediate, which occurs through H2O (*M(HL) kH2O) and OH- (*M(HL) kOH) assisted reaction pathways. The rate constants are essentially independent of the EtOH concentration, but the M(HL) kH2O values increase from CeIII to LuIII. However, the log KM(HL)H protonation constants, analogous to the log KH2 value, decrease with increasing [EtOH], which increases the concentration of the monoprotonated M(HDOTA) intermediate and accelerates formation of the final complexes. The overall rates of complex formation calculated by the obtained rate constants at different EtOH concentrations show a trend similar to that of the complexation rates determined with the use of radioactive isotopes.
