Topochemical control of the photodimerization of aromatic compounds by ?-cyclodextrin thioethers in aqueous solution.

ABSTRACT: The formation of soluble 1:2 complexes within hydrophilic ?-cyclodextrin (?-CD) thioethers allows to perform photodimerizations of aromatic guests under controlled, homogenous reaction conditions. The quantum yields for unsubstituted anthracene, acenaphthylene, and coumarin complexed in these ?-CD thioethers were found to be up to 10 times higher than in the non-complexed state. The configuration of the photoproduct reflected the configuration of the dimeric inclusion complex of the guest. Anti-parallel orientation of acenaphthylene within the CD cavity led to the exclusive formation of the anti photo-dimer in quantitative yield. Parallel orientation of coumarin within the complex of a CD thioether led to the formation of the syn head-to-head dimer. The degree of complexation of coumarin could be increased by employing the salting out effect.

Removal of Aromatic Chlorinated Pesticides from Aqueous Solution Using β-Cyclodextrin Polymers Decorated with Fe₃O₄ Nanoparticles.

Project description:This article describes the sorption properties of cyclodextrin polymers (nanosponges; NS) with the pesticides 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (4-CPA) and 2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol (TCF), including an evaluation of its efficiency and a comparison with other materials, such as granulated activated carbon (GAC). NS-pesticide complexes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR), UV⁻VIS, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). This confirms the interactions of the guests with nanosponges and shows that the polymers have favorable sorption capacities for chlorinated aromatic guests. Our studies also show that the inclusion complex is predominantly favored for NS/CPA rather than those formed between TCF and NS due to the size of the adsorbate and steric effects. Sorption studies carried with repeated cycles demonstrate that NS polymers could be an improved technology for pollutant removal from aquatic environments, as they are very efficient and reusable materials. Our experiments and characterization by SEM, EDS, UV⁻VIS, and magnetization saturation (VSM) also show that NS is an optimal substrate for the deposition of magnetite nanoparticles, thus improving the usefulness and properties of the polymer, as the nanosponges could be retrieved from aqueous solution with a neodymium magnet without losing its efficiency as a pesticide sorbent.

Sorption of Aromatic Compounds with Copolymer Sorbent Materials Containing β-Cyclodextrin.

Project description:Urethane copolymer sorbent materials that incorporate β-cyclodextrin (CD) have been prepared and their sorption properties with chlorinated aromatic compounds (i.e., pentachlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol and 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) have been evaluated. The sorption properties of granular activated carbon (GAC) were similarly compared in aqueous solution at variable pH conditions. The sorbents displayed variable BET surface areas as follows: MDI-X copolymers (< 10¹ m²/g), CDI-X copolymers (< 10¹ m²/g), and granular activated carbon (GAC ~10³ m²/g). The sorption capacities for the copolymers sorbents are listed in descending order, as follows: GAC > CDI-3 copolymer ≈ MDI-3 copolymer. The sorption capacity for the aromatic adsorbates with each sorbent are listed in descending order, as follows: 2,4-dichlorophenol > 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid > pentachlorophenol. In general, the differences in the sorption properties of the copolymer sorbents with the chlorinated organics were related to the following factors: (i) surface area of the sorbent; (ii) CD content and accessibility; and (iii) and the chemical nature of the sorbent material.

Interaction between Negatively Charged Fish Gelatin and Cyclodextrin in Aqueous Solution: Characteristics and Formation Mechanism.

Project description:The effect that ratios of fish gelatin (FG) to α/β/γ cyclodextrins (α, β, γCDs) had on the phase behavior of a concentrated biopolymer mixture were comparatively investigated. This showed that the formed biopolymer mixture had the highest gel strength at ratios of FG-CD = 90:10. FG could interact with CDs to form stable soluble complexes with lower values of turbidity, particle size and ζ-potential. All of the FG-CD mixture solutions exhibited pseudo-plastic behaviors, and FG-αCD samples had the highest viscosity values than others. The addition of CDs could unfold FG molecules and make conformation transitions of FG from a random coil to β-turn, leading to the environmental change of hydrophobic residues and presenting higher fluorescence intensity, especially for βCDs. FTIR results revealed that the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds between FG and CD could change the secondary structure of FG. These findings might help further apply FG-CD complexes in designing new food matrixes.

Oxovanadium(IV) Coordination Compounds with Kojic Acid Derivatives in Aqueous Solution.

Project description:Hydroxypyrone derivatives have a good bioavailability in rats and mice and have been used in drug development. Moreover, they show chelating properties towards vanadyl cation that could be used in insulin-mimetic compound development. In this work, the formation of coordination compounds of oxovanadium(IV) with four kojic acid (5-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-4-pyrone) derivatives was studied. The synthetized studied ligands (S2, S3, S4, and SC) have two or three kojic acid units linked through diamines or tris(2-aminoethyl)amine chains, respectively. The chemical systems were studied by potentiometry (25 °C, ionic strength 0.1 mol L-1 with KCl), and UV-visible and EPR spectroscopy. The experimental data were analyzed by a thermodynamic and a chemometric (Multivariate Curve Resolution-Alternating Least Squares) approach. Chemical coordination models were proposed, together with the species formation constants and the pure estimated UV-vis and EPR spectra. In all systems, the coordination of the oxovanadium(IV) starts already under acidic conditions (the cation is totally bound at pH higher than 3-4) and the metal species remain stable even at pH 8. Ligands S3, S4, and SC form three coordination species. Two of them are probably due to the successive insertion of the kojate units in the coordination shell, whereas the third is most likely a hydrolytic species.

Uncommon Sorption Mechanism of Aromatic Compounds onto Poly(Vinyl Alcohol)/Chitosan/Maleic Anhydride-β-Cyclodextrin Hydrogels.

Project description:Aromatic hydrocarbons are extensive environmental pollutants occurring in both water and air media, and their removal is a priority effort for a healthy environment. The use of adsorbents is among the several strategies used for the remediation of these compounds. In this paper, we aim the synthesis of an amphiphilic hydrogel with the potential for the simultaneous sorption of a set of monocyclic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons associated with toxicity effects in humans. Thus, we start by the synthesis of a copolymer-based in chitosan and β-cyclodextrin previously functionalized with the maleic anhydride. The presence of β-cyclodextrin will confer the ability to interact with hydrophobic compounds. The resulting material is posteriorly incorporated in a cryogel of poly(vinyl alcohol) matrix. We aim to improve the amphiphilic ability of the hydrogel matrix. The obtained hydrogel was characterized by swelling water kinetics, thermogravimetric analysis, rheological measurements, and scanning electron microscopy. The sorption of aromatic hydrocarbons onto the gel is characterized by pseudo-first-order kinetics and Henry isotherm, suggesting a physisorption mechanism. The results show that the presence of maleic anhydride-β-cyclodextrin and chitosan into hydrogels leads to an increase in the removal efficiency of the aromatic compounds. Additionally, the capacity of this hydrogel for removing these pollutants from a fossil fuel sample has also been tested.

Interactions of Mycotoxin Alternariol with Cyclodextrins and its Removal from Aqueous Solution by Beta-Cyclodextrin Bead Polymer.

Project description:Alternariol is an Alternaria mycotoxin that appears in fruits, tomatoes, oilseeds, and corresponding products. Chronic exposure to it can induce carcinogenic and xenoestrogenic effects. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are ring-shaped molecules built up by glucose units, which form host-guest type complexes with some mycotoxins. Furthermore, insoluble CD polymers seem suitable for the extraction/removal of mycotoxins from aqueous solutions. In this study, the interactions of alternariol with ?- and ?-CDs were tested by employing fluorescence spectroscopic and modeling studies. Moreover, the removal of alternariol from aqueous solutions by insoluble ?-CD bead polymer (BBP) was examined. Our major observations/conclusions are the following: (1) CDs strongly increased the fluorescence of alternariol, the strongest enhancement was induced by the native ?-CD at pH 7.4. (2) Alternariol formed the most stable complexes with the native ?-CD (logK = 3.2) and the quaternary ammonium derivatives (logK = 3.4-3.6) at acidic/physiological pH and at pH 10.0, respectively. (3) BBP effectively removed alternariol from aqueous solution. (4) The alternariol-binding ability of ?-CD polymers was significantly higher than was expected based on their ?-CD content. (5) CD technology seems a promising tool to improve the fluorescence detection of alternariol and/or to develop new mycotoxin binders to decrease alternariol exposure.

Identification of Lactam-Lactim Tautomers of Aromatic Heterocycles in Aqueous Solution Using 2D IR Spectroscopy.

Project description:The tautomerism of aromatic heterocycles is of great interest because it directly affects their chemical properties and biological function. The tautomerism of 2-pyridone, 6-chloro-2-pyridone, and 4-pyrimidinone have been examined in D(2)O using FTIR, two-dimensional IR (2D IR) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Using the 2D IR cross-peak patterns, the lactim tautomer of 6-chloro-2-pyridone was separated from the lactam tautomer, and its population was observed to increase with temperature. The equilibrium constant of [lac-tam]/[lactim] was determined to be 2.1 at room temperature for 6-chloro-2-pyridone. Similarly, the N1H and N3H lactam tautomers of 4-pyrimidinone were identified with 2D IR. To assign the vibrational modes of different tautomers, DFT calculations of these chemical species were performed with explicit water molecules, and the hydration effects on the vibrational frequencies and intensities were established.

In Vivo Investigation of (2-Hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin-Based Formulation of Spironolactone in Aqueous Solution for Paediatric Use.

Project description:Spironolactone (SPL), a potent anti-aldosterone steroidal drug used to treat several diseases in paediatric patients (e.g., hypertension, primary aldosteronism, Bartter's syndrome, and congestive heart failure), is not available in child-friendly dosage forms, and spironolactone liquids have been reported to be unpalatable. Aiming to enhance SPL solubility in aqueous solution and overcome palatability, herein, the effects of (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CyD) were thoroughly investigated on solubilisation in water and on masking the unpleasant taste of SPL in vivo. Although the complexation of SPL with HP-β-CyD was demonstrated through phase solubility studies, Job's plot, NMR and computational docking studies, our in vivo tests did not show significant effects on taste aversion. Our findings, on the one hand, suggest that the formation of an inclusion complex of SPL with HP-β-CyD itself is not necessarily a good indicator for an acceptable degree of palatability, whereas, on the other hand, they constitute the basis for investigating other cyclodextrin-based formulations of the poorly water-soluble steroidal drug, including solid dosage forms, such as spray-dried powders and orodispersible tablets.

Recyclable Au/SiO2-Shell/Fe3O4-Core Catalyst for the Reduction of Nitro Aromatic Compounds in Aqueous Solution.

Project description:Highly stable gold nanoparticles immobilized on the surface of amine-functionalized nanocomposite microspheres possessing a magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticle core and a silica (SiO2) shell (Au/SiO2-shell/Fe3O4-core) were prepared. These gold nanocomposite catalysts were tested for 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and 2-nitroaniline (2-NA) reduction in aqueous solution in the temperature range 293-323 K and in the presence of aqueous NaBH4 reducing agent. The magnetically recyclable gold catalyst showed high stability (∼3 months), efficient recyclability (up to 10 cycles), and high activity (∼100% conversion within 225 s, ∼700 ppm 4-NP or 2-NA). The pseudo-first-order apparent reaction rate constants (k) of 4-NP and 2-NA reduction were 7.5 × 10-3 and 4.1 × 10-3 s-1, respectively, and with an apparent catalytic activity of 4.48 × 10-8 kmol/(m3 s).
