Abstract

The influence of achiral modifiers on the chiral separation of propranolol is examined by cyclodextrin modified capillary zone electrophoresis. The improved chiral separation of propranolol is by molecules previously identified in our group as forming ternary complexes with cyclodextrin and pyrene. The polarity, chain size and heteroatom composition of the functional groups on the comodifiers was systematically varied in order to study the influence of these variables on the separation of propranolol. The improved chiral separation is accompanied by a decrease in retention time. The decrease in retention time is suggestive of a decrease in the association of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) with propranolol which was verified by calculation of apparent association constants using fluorometric methods.

Investigation of inclusion complexation of paclitaxel by cyclohenicosakis-(1-->2)-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl), by cyclic-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucans (cyclosophoraoses), and by cyclomaltoheptaoses (beta-cyclodextrins).

Inclusion complexation of the poorly soluble drug, paclitaxel, was investigated with various host cyclooligosaccharides such as a family of isolated neutral cyclohenicosakis-(1-->2)-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl) (cyclic-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucans, cyclosophoraoses), dimethyl cyclomaltoheptaose (cyclodextrins, DM-beta-CD) and hydroxypropyl cyclomaltoheptaose (cyclodextrins, HP-beta-CD). Quantitative analysis with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) indicated that all three cyclic oligosaccharides could increase the solubility of paclitaxel, where DM-beta-CD gave the best results and a family of cyclosophoraoses and HP-beta-CD, both gave similar results. Complexation of host molecules with paclitaxel was studied by NMR and fluorescence spectroscopic analyses. NMR spectroscopic analysis showed that the aromatic regions of paclitaxel experienced noticeable changes of the chemical shifts or peak shapes upon interaction with host molecules. The relatively bulky cyclosophoraoses allowed favorable accessibility to either the B-ring or A-ring of paclitaxel, while DM-beta-CD and HP-beta-CD allowed accessibility to all the aromatic rings including the C ring. The interaction of DM-beta-CD with paclitaxel greatly increased the fluorescence intensity compared with other host molecules, suggesting the more effective partitioning of a moderate fluorophore into a hydrophobic cluster adjacent to the C-ring of paclitaxel.

Use of beta-cyclodextrin in the capillary zone electrophoretic separation of the components of clandestine heroin preparations.

The present paper describes the methodological optimization and validation of a capillary zone electrophoresis method for the rapid determination of heroin, secondary products and additives present in clandestine heroin samples, by using 20 mM beta-cyclodextrins in phosphate buffer, pH 3.23. Applied potential was 15 kV and separation temperature was 24 degrees C; detection was by UV absorption at 200 nm wavelength. Heroin samples were first dissolved in CHCl3-MeOH (96:4, v/v) and injected by pressure (0.5 p.s.i., 3 s; 1 p.s.i.=6894.76 Pa) after evaporation of the organic mixture and reconstitution in aqueous buffer. Under the described conditions, phenylethylamine (internal standard), morphine, monoacetylmorphine, heroin, acetylcodeine, papaverine, codeine and narcotine were baseline resolved in less than 10 min. The limit of detection was better than 1 microg/ml for each analyte. The study of the intra-day and day-to-day precision showed, in terms of migration times, RSDs < or = 0.71% and, in terms of peak areas, RSDs < or = 3.2%. Also, the evaluation of linearity and analytical accuracy of the method provided good results for all the analytes investigated, thus allowing its application to real cases of seized controlled drug preparations.
