Clinical translation of choline and geranic acid deep eutectic solvent.

ABSTRACT: Choline geranate deep eutectic solvent/ionic liquid (CAGE) has shown several desirable therapeutic properties including antimicrobial activity and ability to deliver drugs transdermally in research laboratories. Here, we describe the first report of clinical translation of CAGE from the lab into the clinic for the treatment of rosacea, a common chronic inflammatory skin disorder that affects the face. We describe the seven steps of clinical translation including (a) scale-up, (b) characterization, (c) stability analysis, (d) mechanism of action, (e) dose determination, (f) GLP toxicity study, and (g) human clinical study. We describe the challenges and outcomes in these steps, especially those that uniquely arise from the deep eutectic nature of CAGE. Our translational efforts led to a 12-week open-label phase 1b cosmetic study with CAGE_1:2 gel (CGB400) in mild-moderate facial rosacea in 26 patients where CGB400 exhibited a marked reduction in the number of inflammatory lesions. These results demonstrate the therapeutic potential of CGB400 for treating rosacea as well as it provides insights into the translational journey of deep eutectic solvents, in particular CAGE, for dermatological applications.

Deep Eutectic Solvents Based on Natural Ascorbic Acid Analogues and Choline Chloride.

Project description:Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are one of the most promising green technologies to emerge in recent years given their combination of environmentally friendly credentials and useful functionalities. Considering the continued search for new DES - especially those that exemplify the aforementioned characteristics, we report the preparation of DES based on natural analogues of l-ascorbic acid for the first time. The onset of eutectic melting occurred at temperatures far below the melting point of the individual components and resulted in the generation of glass forming fluids with glass transition temperatures, viscosities and flow behavior that are comparable to similar systems. This work expands the current array of DES that can be produced using naturally occurring components, which given their potential to be bio-derived, interesting physicochemical properties (e.?g. propensity to supercool and vitrify) and apparent antibacterial nature, may provide utility within a range of applications.

Fate of a Deep Eutectic Solvent upon Cosolvent Addition: Choline Chloride-Sesamol 1:3 Mixtures with Methanol.

Project description:The changes upon methanol (MeOH) addition in the structural arrangement of the highly eco-friendly deep eutectic solvent (DES) formed by choline chloride (ChCl) and sesamol in 1:3 molar ratio have been studied by means of attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SWAXS), and molecular dynamics simulations. The introduction of MeOH into the DES promotes the increase of the number of Cl-MeOH hydrogen bonds (HBs) through the replacement of sesamol and choline molecules from the chloride anion coordination sphere. This effect does not promote the sesamol-sesamol, choline-choline, and sesamol-choline interactions, which remain as negligible as in the pure DES. Differently, the displaced sesamol and choline molecules are solvated by MeOH, which also forms HBs with other MeOH molecules, so that the system arranges itself to keep the overall amount of HBs maximized. SWAXS measurements show that this mechanism is predominant up to MeOH/DES molar ratios of 20-24, while after this ratio value, the scattering profile is progressively diluted in the cosolvent background and decreases toward the signal of pure MeOH. The ability of MeOH to interplay with all of the DES components produces mixtures with neither segregation of the components at nanoscale lengths nor macroscopic phase separation even for high MeOH contents. These findings have important implications for application purposes since the understanding of the pseudophase aggregates formed by a DES with a dispersing cosolvent can help in addressing an efficient extraction procedure.

Electrodeposition of ZnNi Alloys from Choline Chloride/Ethylene Glycol Deep Eutectic Solvent and Pure Ethylene Glycol for Corrosion Protection.

Project description:The present work follows the trend to develop non-aqueous electrolytes for the deposition of corrosion resistant ZnNi alloys. It investigates the use of the choline chloride/ethylene glycol (1:2 molar ratio) eutectic mixture and of pure ethylene glycol as solvents for ZnNi electroplating. The electrochemical behavior of Zn and Ni is investigated via cyclic voltammetry, and potentiostatic ZnNi deposition is performed. Ni content is found to be precisely tunable in the 10-20% wt range, which presents the highest industrial interest for corrosion protection. ZnNi coatings obtained are characterized from the morphological and phase composition point of view. Evidence of the formation of a metastable γ ZnNi phase is observed for both choline chloride/ethylene glycol and pure ethylene glycol. Finally, potentiodynamic corrosion tests are performed to assess their corrosion properties.

Thermodynamic investigation on the aqueous mixtures of choline chloride/propylene glycol deep eutectic solvent at T = (293.15 to 313.15) K.

Project description:This work focuses on physicochemical features of the choline chloride/propylene glycol deep eutectic solvent (DES) + water mixtures by determining their density values in mono- and mixed- states over various temperatures in the range of 293.15-318.15 K. The density data obtained from measurements were utilized for the computation of various quantities such as excess molar volumes, molar volume, apparent molar volume, limiting apparent molar expansibility, and isobaric thermal expansion coefficient. Furthermore, the experimental densities were fitted to some mathematical equations such as Jouyban-Acree, Jouyban-Acreevan't Hoff, modified Jouyban-Acree-van't Hoff, Redlich-Kister and Emmerling. Studies of this nature can provide useful insights into solute-solvent interactions in aqueous solutions of DES, especially about to their novel application in drug solubilization.

Effect of Water on a Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvent.

Project description:Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) formed by hydrogen bond donors and acceptors are a promising new class of solvents. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic binary DESs readily absorb water, making them ternary mixtures, and a small water content is always inevitable under ambient conditions. We present a thorough study of a typical hydrophobic DES formed by a 1:2 mole ratio of tetrabutyl ammonium chloride and decanoic acid, focusing on the effects of a low water content caused by absorbed water vapor, using multinuclear NMR techniques, molecular modeling, and several other physicochemical techniques. Already very low water contents cause dynamic nanoscale phase segregation, reduce solvent viscosity and fragility, increase self-diffusion coefficients and conductivity, and enhance local dynamics. Water interferes with the hydrogen-bonding network between the chloride ions and carboxylic acid groups by solvating them, which enhances carboxylic acid self-correlation and ion pair formation between tetrabutyl ammonium and chloride. Simulations show that the component molar ratio can be varied, with an effect on the internal structure. The water-induced changes in the physical properties are beneficial for most prospective applications but water creates an acidic aqueous nanophase with a high halide ion concentration, which may have chemically adverse effects.

Electrochemical Behavior of Graphene in a Deep Eutectic Solvent.

Project description:Graphene electrodes and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are two emerging material systems that have individually shown highly promising properties in electrochemical applications. To date, however, it has not been tested whether the combination of graphene and DESs can yield synergistic effects in electrochemistry. We therefore study the electrochemical behavior of a defined graphene monolayer of centimeter-scale, which was produced by chemical vapor deposition and transferred onto insulating SiO2/Si supports, in the common DES choline chloride/ethylene glycol (12CE) under typical electrochemical conditions. We measure the graphene potential window in 12CE and estimate the apparent electron transfer kinetics of an outer-sphere redox couple. We further explore the applicability of the 12CE electrolyte to fabricate nanostructured metal (Zn) and metalloid (Ge) hybrids with graphene by electrodeposition. By comparing our graphene electrodes with common bulk glassy carbon electrodes, a key finding we make is that the two-dimensional nature of the graphene electrodes has a clear impact on DES-based electrochemistry. Thereby, we provide a first framework toward rational optimization of graphene-DES systems for electrochemical applications.

Fluorescently Labeling Amino Acids in a Deep Eutectic Solvent.

Project description:The increased use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in recent years has been significant and provides new approaches to sample collection and preparation. At the same time, the use of these new solvents to prepare samples can present challenges for subsequent analyses. Common analytical approaches, such as fluorescent labeling, may not be compatible with the solvents. In this work, we explore how effective three traditional fluorescent labels can be at derivatizing amino acids in the most common DESs, formed from choline chloride and ethylene glycol. We demonstrate that the unique solvent characteristics of the DESs still allow for two of the fluorophores, fluorescein isothiocyanate and 5-carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester, to effectively label amino acids. Initial optimizations of the reaction conditions demonstrate that we can effectively label both d- and l-amino acids, in solution with concentrations of amino acids down to 4 μM. Capillary electrophoretic separations following this preparation can detect as little as 50 nM. This is possible without removal of any DES from the sample matrix. These results represent the first complete fluorescent labeling reaction in a DES and subsequent capillary electrophoretic separation of the analytes.

Ductile keratin films from deep eutectic solvent-fractionated feathers.

Project description:Feathers, an industrial by-product, are a valuable source of keratin that could be used, for example, in the preparation of films for biomedical and packaging applications. However, the utilisation of feather keratin requires scalable processes to convert feathers into a feasible keratin stream. This paper shows how deep eutectic solvent (DES) fractionated feathers could be converted into strong films. In the DES fractionation process, two keratin fractions with different molecular weights were obtained. The films made of the high molecular weight keratin fraction had better mechanical properties and stability against moisture than the films made of the low molecular weight keratin fraction. The strength properties were further improved by cross-linking the keratin with diglycidyl ether enabling the formation of a uniform keratin network, whereas glutaraldehyde did not show a clear cross-linking effect. These keratin films could be used, for example, in food packaging or medical applications such as wound care.

A Comprehensive Study of CO2 Absorption and Desorption by Choline-Chloride/Levulinic-Acid-Based Deep Eutectic Solvents.

Project description:Amine absorption (or amine scrubbing) is currently the most established method for CO2 capture; however, it has environmental shortcomings and is energy-intensive. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an interesting alternative to conventional amines. Due to their biodegradability, lower toxicity and lower prices, DESs are considered to be "more benign" absorbents for CO2 capture than ionic liquids. In this work, the CO2 absorption capacity of choline-chloride/levulinic-acid-based (ChCl:LvAc) DESs was measured at different temperatures, pressures and stirring speeds using a vapour-liquid equilibrium rig. DES regeneration was performed using a heat treatment method. The DES compositions studied had ChCl:LvAc molar ratios of 1:2 and 1:3 and water contents of 0, 2.5 and 5 mol%. The experimental results showed that the CO2 absorption capacity of the ChCl:LvAc DESs is strongly affected by the operating pressure and stirring speed, moderately affected by the temperature and minimally affected by the hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA):hydrogen bond donator (HBD) molar ratio as well as water content. Thermodynamic properties for CO2 absorption were calculated from the experimental data. The regeneration of the DESs was performed at different temperatures, with the optimal regeneration temperature estimated to be 80 °C. The DESs exhibited good recyclability and moderate CO2/N2 selectivity.

Green Synthesis of Privileged Benzimidazole Scaffolds Using Active Deep Eutectic Solvent.

Project description:The exploitation and use of alternative synthetic methods, in the face of classical procedures that do not conform to the ethics of green chemistry, represent an ever-present problem in the pharmaceutical industry. The procedures for the synthesis of benzimidazoles have become a focus in synthetic organic chemistry, as they are building blocks of strong interest for the development of compounds with pharmacological activity. Various benzimidazole derivatives exhibit important activities such as antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic activities, and some of the already synthesized compounds have found very strong applications in medicine praxis. Here we report a selective and sustainable method for the synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted or 2-substituted benzimidazoles, starting from o-phenylenediamine in the presence of different aldehydes. The use of deep eutectic solvent (DES), both as reaction medium and reagent without any external solvent, provides advantages in terms of yields as well as in the work up procedure of the reaction.
