Abstract:

Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR), which has become an important tool for in vitro study of cyclodextrin (CD) complexes, was used to study and structurally characterize the inclusion compounds formed in solution between nicardipine hydrochloride (NC) and beta-cyclodextrin (betaCD), hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPbetaCD) and triacetyl-beta-cyclodextrin (TAbetaCD). The large variation of chemical shifts from protons located around the interior of the hydrophobic cavity (i.e. H-3, H-5 and H-6) coupled with minimal variation of shifts from protons located on the outer sphere of the betaCD (i.e. H-1, H-2 and H-4) provided clear evidence of inclusion complexation. In the presence of the different CDs, the aromatic protons of NC were the most affected, suggesting a strong involvement of the phenyl groups in the inclusion mechanism. The application of continuous variation method indicated the presence of complexes with a 1:1 host/guest stoichiometry for all the studied CDs. Two-dimensional rotating frame nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (ROESY) experiments were carried out to further support the proposed inclusion mode. Inspection of the ROESY spectra allowed the establishment of spatial proximities between several aromatic hydrogens of the guest and the CD protons, indicating that the inclusion occurs by accommodation of the two aromatic groups of NC. All the experimental data were further rationalized to elaborate possible three-dimensional geometric models of inclusion complexes. From the aforementioned observations, we concluded there is no preference for inclusion of a particular aromatic ring. Instead, two types of 1:1 complexes with different inclusion structures may exist simultaneously in solution, being alternatively included through the wider side of the cavity, i.e. the so-called multimodal inclusion occurs in the interaction of NC with the different CDs.
