Affinity of Telluronium Chalcogen Bond Donors for Lewis Bases in Solution: A Critical Experimental-Theoretical Joint Study. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202302933. [PMID: 37970753 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202302933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
Telluronium salts [Ar2 MeTe]X were synthesized, and their Lewis acidic properties towards a number of Lewis bases were addressed in solution by physical and theoretical means. Structural X-ray diffraction analysis of 21 different salts revealed the electrophilicity of the Te centers in their interactions with anions. Telluroniums' propensity to form Lewis pairs was investigated with OPPh3 . Diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy suggested that telluroniums can bind up to three OPPh3 molecules. Isotherm titration calorimetry showed that the related heats of association in 1,2-dichloroethane depend on the electronic properties of the substituents of the aryl moiety and on the nature of the counterion. The enthalpies of first association of OPPh3 span -0.5 to -5 kcal mol-1 . Study of the affinity of telluroniums for OPPh3 by state-of-the-art DFT and ab-initio methods revealed the dominant Coulombic and dispersion interactions as well as an entropic effect favoring association in solution. Intermolecular orbital interactions between [Ar2 MeTe]+ cations and OPPh3 are deemed insufficient on their own to ensure the cohesion of [Ar2 MeTe ⋅ Bn ]+ complexes in solution (B=Lewis base). Comparison of Grimme's and Tkatchenko's DFT-D4/MBD-vdW thermodynamics of formation of higher [Ar2 MeTe ⋅ Bn ]+ complexes revealed significant molecular size-dependent divergence of the two methodologies, with MBD yielding better agreement with experiment.

Abstract
Cervical cancer treatment is subject to limited drug access to locally diseased targets and generally resistant to chemotherapy, thus it is essential to develop a local drug delivery system to overcome these problems, premised on guaranteeing drug efficacy. With this goal in mind, a multivalent interactions-based mucoadhesive nanogel for vaginal delivery is proposed. Briefly, the nanogel is constructed with mucoadhesive poly(acrylic acid) as the backbone and multiple inclusions between β-cyclodextrin and paclitaxel as the crosslinking points. The in vitro experiments demonstrate that nanogel exerts high cytotoxicity to cancer cells, reverses multidrug resistance effectively, and successfully promotes the permeation of drugs. More to the point, as proved in the in vivo experiments, the retention time in the vagina is prolonged and the tumor growth is effectively suppressed by the nanogel without any side effects in the orthotopic cervical cancer model. As mentioned above, this novel mucoadhesive nanogel is believed to be a useful tool toward designing drug delivery systems for cervical cancer treatment.

Abstract
The inclusion complexation behaviour of morin hydrate (MH) and quercetin (QCT) with the two amide-bridged bis(β-cyclodextrin (β-CD))s, 1 and 2, was investigated in both solution and the solid state. The inclusion complexations were characterised by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, 2D rotating-frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Ultraviolet titration analysis indicated that 1 and 2 form 1:1 molar stoichiometry inclusion complexes with MH and QCT, and the data obtained showed that 2 with two guests has a higher complex stability constant (KS) when compared with that of 1. Moreover, 1 and 2 were able to solubilize MH and QCT to high levels, up to ~200-fold. Furthermore, the antioxidant activity of MH, QCT and their inclusion compounds were determined by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging. Together, these results showed that the inclusion complexes exhibited a more effective antioxidant activity when compared with free MH. The satisfactory antioxidant activity and high water solubility of the bis(β-CD)s/flavonoid complexes may have potential use as healthcare products and herbal medicine.

Abstract
Here, we developed stable supramolecular binary vesicles on the basis of the host-guest interaction between β-cyclodextrins (β-CDs) and paclitaxel (PTX) dimer. The inclusion complexation between PTX dimer and β-CDs in water was studied by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and two-dimensional rotating-frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy. The resulting inclusion complex was amphiphilic and could self-assemble into vesicles with average diameter of 230 nm. The vesicles could evolve to nanoparticles (NPs) by adding competitive binding guest amantadine hydrochloride or by digesting β-CDs through α-amylase. Moreover, this process was reversible, and the NPs could also transform to vesicles by adding enough β-CDs again. The obtained hollow supramolecular vesicles were further explored to load hydrophilic dye indocyanine green molecule or hydrophobic anticancer drug doxorobicin for their controlled release under external stimulus. This work provides a new strategy for the design of supramolecular systems by using prodrug as building blocks.

Abstract
Paclitaxel is an anti-tumor agent with remarkable anti-tumor activity and wide clinical uses. However, it is also faced with various challenges especially for its poor water solubility and low selectivity for the target. To overcome these disadvantages of paclitaxel, approaches using small molecule modifications and macromolecule modifications have been developed by many research groups from all over the world. In this review, we discuss the different strategies especially prodrug strategies that are currently used to make paclitaxel more effective.

Abstract
Large porous particles (LPPs) could be used as a useful carrier for non-invasive delivery to the deep lung. Pulmonary delivery of paclitaxel-loaded LPPs (PTX-LPPs) can help to eliminate the highly complicated and harmful solvent used in PTX parenteral formulations. PTX-LPPs with mass median aerodynamic diameter (MMAD) of 5.74 ± 0.09 μm, high encapsulation efficiency and good aerosolisation properties were produced using ammonium bicarbonate as porogen. Cytotoxicity of PTX-LPPs on A549 and Calu-6 cell lines was comparable with Free-PTX. Endotracheal administration of PTX-LPPs in rats exhibited PTX plasma concentration in the therapeutic range which lasted 4-fold longer than i.v. injection. The bioavailability was measured as 51 ± 7.1%. The lung targeting efficiency (Te) of PTX-LPPs was 11.9-fold higher than i.v. administration. PTX-LPPs could deliver a higher PTX to lung with a non-toxic plasma level in a longer duration which shows their pulmonary delivery suitability.

Abstract
Betulinic acid, a very promising anti-melanoma agent, has very low water solubility that causes low bioavailability. To overcome this inconvenience, a highly water-soluble cyclodextrin was used (octakis-[6-deoxy-6-(2-sulfanyl ethanesulfonic acid)]-γ-cyclodextrin). The complex was physico-chemically analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods and then in vitro tested for its antiproliferative activity by the MTT assay and by cell cycle analysis. Finally, the complex was tested in vivo using an animal model of murine melanoma developed in C57BL/6J mice, where it caused a reduction in tumor volume and weight. The study revealed the beneficial influence of betulinic acid inclusion into the cyclodextrin in terms of antiproliferative activity and in vivo tumor development.

Abstract
For developing a multifunctional bioreducible targeted and synergistic co-delivery system for anticancer drug paclitaxel (PTX) and p53 gene for potential cancer therapy, supramolecular self-assembled inclusion complex was prepared from PTX and star-shaped cationic polymer containing γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) and multiple oligoethylenimine (OEI) arms with folic acid (FA) conjugated via a disulfide linker. The inclusion complex, termed as γ-CD-OEI-SS-FA/PTX, was formed between PTX and the hydrophobic cavity of γ-CD core of the star polymer. The γ-CD-OEI-SS-FA/PTX complex further formed polyplexes with pDNA to give positively charged nanoparticles, becoming multifunctional supramolecular self-assembled co-delivery system for PTX and pDNA targeting to cancer cells that overexpress folate receptors (FRs). The results showed that the FA-targeted function induced higher gene transfection efficiency in the FR-positive KB cells. The redox-sensitive disulfide linker in the self-assembly system led to the detachment of the FA groups from the carrier after the FR-mediated endocytosis, which resulted in the release of the bound FRs followed by the recycling of the FRs from the cytosol onto the cell membrane surface, facilitating continuous FR-mediated endocytosis to achieve enhanced gene transfection. In addition, the complexed PTX was co-delivered to the cells with pDNA, which further enhanced the gene transfection even at low N/P ratios in the FR-positive KB cells. Further, the efficient delivery of wild-type p53 gene resulted in large cell population at sub G1 and G2/M phases, inducing significant cell apoptosis. Therefore, the multifunctional γ-CD-OEI-SS-FA/PTX self-assembly system with the synergistic effects of redox-sensitive FA-targeted and PTX-enhanced p53 gene delivery may be promising for cancer therapeutic application.

Abstract
About 10% of the drugs in the preclinical stage are poorly soluble, 40% of the drugs in the pipeline have poor solubility, and even 60% of drugs coming directly from synthesis have aqueous solubility below 0.1 mg/ml. Out of the research around, 40% of lipophilic drug candidates fail to reach the market despite having potential pharmacodynamic activities. Microtubule-modulating chemotherapeutics is an important class of cancer chemotherapy. Most chemotherapeutics that belong to this category are plant-derived active constituents, such as vincristine, vinblastine, colchicine, docetaxel, paclitaxel, and noscapinoids. The pKa of a drug considerably affects its solubility in physiological fluids and consequently bioavailability. It usually ranges from 5 to 12 for microtubule-modulating drugs. Hence, the solubility of these drugs in physiological fluids is considerably affected by a change in pH. However, because of unpredictable parameters involved in poor solubility and the low oral bioavailability of these chemotherapeutics during the early phases of drug development, they often have an unusual pharmacokinetic profile. This makes the development process of novel chemotherapeutics slow, inefficient, patient-unfriendly, and very costly, emphasizing a need for more rational approaches on the basis of preclinical concepts. Nanosolvation is a process of increasing the polarity of a hydrophobic molecule either by solvation or cavitization in a hydrophilic macrocycle. The present review therefore focuses on the techniques applied in nanosolvation of microtubule-modulating chemotherapeutics to enhance solubility and bioavailability. The methodologies described will be highly beneficial for anticancer researchers to follow a trend of rational drug development.

Abstract
Given the present high incidence of melanoma and skin cancer, interest in potential drugs of plant origin has increased significantly. Pentacyclic lupane-type triterpenes are widely distributed in plants, offering numerous pharmacological benefits. Betulin is an important compound in the bark of Betula pendula Roth and has important therapeutic properties, including antitumor activities. Its biological effect is limited by its poor water solubility, which can be improved by cyclodextrin complexation. The best results have been obtained by using a novel cyclodextrin derivative, octakis-[6-deoxy-6-(2-sulfanyl ethanesulfonate)]-γ-CD. The complexes between betulin and the previously mentioned cyclodextrin were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM)and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and pharmacologically evaluated in vitro (MTT and immunocytochemistry tests) and in vivo in C57BL/6J mice. The solubility of betulin is improved by cyclodextrin complexation, which creates a stable complex that improves the in vitro and in vivo properties of the active compound.

Abstract
Controlled self-assembly of amphiphilic cyclodextrin is always a challenging topic in the field of supramolecular chemistry, since it provides the spontaneous generation of well-defined aggregation with functional host sites with great potential applications in drug-carrier systems. β-Cyclodextrin modified with an anthraquinone moiety (1) was successfully synthesized. In the aqueous solution, 1 was found able to self-assemble into vesicles, which was characterized in detail by TEM, SEM, EFM, and DLS. The formation mechanism of the vesicles was suggested based on the 2D ROESY and UV-vis results, and further verified by the MD simulation. Subsequently, the stimuli response property of the vesicles, including to Cu(2+) and H(+), was also studied. The vesicles can efficiently load Paclitaxel inside the membrane with functional macrocyclic cavities available, which can further carry small molecules, such as ferrocene. The vesicles loading with Paclitaxel have remarkable anticancer effects. This work will provide new strategy in drug-carrier systems and tumor treatment methods.

Abstract
CD437 (6-[3-(1-adamantyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]-2-naphthalene carboxylic acid) is a novel synthetic retinoic acid derivative that has been shown to selectively induce apoptosis in human lung cancer cells. This compound, however, is limited in its application due to its low solubility in aqueous solutions. One technique for increasing the solubility and bioavailability of a cytotoxic agent is the formation of inclusion complexes with cyclodextrins. Herein, we report the formation and characterization of a 2:1 complex between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and CD437. It is shown that CD437 is a tight binder of β-CD with an overall association constant of 2.6±0.6×10(7)M(-2). In addition, we demonstrate (a) that β-CD-derived complexation enhances the aqueous solubility of CD437, and (b) that a significant increase in the toxicity of CD437 against a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line can be achieved by co-treatment with β-CD.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop an aerosol system for efficient local lung delivery of chemotherapeutics where nanotechnology holds tremendous potential for developing more valuable cancer therapies. Concurrently, aerosolized chemotherapy is generating interest as a means to treat certain types of lung cancer more effectively with less systemic exposure to the compound. METHODS Nanoparticles of the potent anticancer drug, paclitaxel, were controllably assembled to form low density microparticles directly after preparation of the nanoparticle suspension. The amino acid, L-leucine, was used as a colloid destabilizer to drive the assembly of paclitaxel nanoparticles. A combination chemotherapy aerosol was formed by assembling the paclitaxel nanoparticles in the presence of cisplatin in solution. RESULTS Freeze-dried powders of the combination chemotherapy possessed desirable aerodynamic properties for inhalation. In addition, the dissolution rates of dried nanoparticle agglomerate formulations (approximately 60% to 66% after 8 h) were significantly faster than that of micronized paclitaxel powder as received (approximately 18% after 8 h). Interestingly, the presence of the water soluble cisplatin accelerated the dissolution of paclitaxel. CONCLUSIONS Nanoparticle agglomerates of paclitaxel alone or in combination with cisplatin may serve as effective chemotherapeutic dry powder aerosols to enable regional treatment of certain lung cancers.

Abstract
Supramolecular medicinal chemistry field has been a quite rapidly developing, increasingly active and newly rising interdiscipline which is the new expansion of supramolecular chemistry in pharmaceutical sciences, and is gradually becoming a relatively independent scientific area. Supramolecular drugs could be defined as medicinal supermolecules formed by two or more molecules through non-covalent bonds. So far a lot of supermolecules as chemical drugs have been widely used in clinics. Supermolecules as chemical drugs, i.e. supramolecular chemical drugs or supramolecular drugs, which might have the excellences of lower cost, shorter period, higher potential as clinical drugs for their successful research and development, may possess higher bioavailability, better biocompatibility and drug-targeting, fewer multidrug-resistances, lower toxicity, less adverse effect, and better curative effects as well as safety, and therefore exhibit wide potential application. These overwhelming advantages have drawn enormous special attention. This paper gives the definition of supramolecular drugs, proposes the concept of supramolecular chemical drugs, and systematically reviews the recent advances in the research and development of supermolecules, including organic and inorganic complex ones as chemical drugs in the area of antitumor, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antimalarial, antibacterial, antifungal, antivirus, anti-epileptic, cardiovascular agents and magnetic resonance imaging agents and so on. The perspectives of the foreseeable future and potential application of supramolecules as chemical drugs are also presented.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the penetration of paclitaxel in normal as well as cancerous human cervical monolayer membranes and to compare these results with the paclitaxel penetration in a model dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayer. At physiologically relevant surface pressures of 30 mN/m, equilibrium drug penetration was observed in DPPC model membrane, whereas in cervical lipid model membranes exclusion of the drug and destabilization of the membrane was observed. The maximum surface pressure increment due to penetration (Deltapi(max)) of 600 nM paclitaxel, for DPPC monolayer was found to be 3.6, 5.4 and 5.0 times higher than those for penetration in the cancerous monolayer at surface pressures 10, 20 and 30 mN/m, respectively. At initial surface pressure 10 mN/m, the maximum surface pressure increment, for 600 nM paclitaxel penetration, of normal cervical lipid membrane was double that of the cancerous cervical lipid membrane. At 30 mN/m initial surface pressure the representative IC(50) concentration of the drug produced negligible drug penetration and significant membrane destabilization in cervical lipid model membranes. The difference in penetration profile could be due to differences in composition of the model membranes. The cholesterol level in cancerous cervical membrane was 1.5-folds higher than that in the normal cervical membrane. Apart from PC, another constituent present in 20-32% in cancerous and normal membranes is sphingomyelin (SM). Introduction of 70% SM to the DPPC monolayer decreased the Deltapi(max) from 4.7 to 1.1 mN/m, revealing the rigidifying effect of SM which was directly proportional to the amount of SM added. Modulation of fluidity of the membranes can alter the penetration of paclitaxel in biological membranes and hence its toxicity profile.

Abstract
A novel glucose-conjugated paclitaxel 5 was synthesized using succinic acid as linker between 2'-paclitaxel and methyl 2'-glucopyranose. 5 has not only improved the pharmaceutical properties of paclitaxel, such as solubility and stability, but also enhanced the specific target delivery to MCF-7 cells without the cytotoxicity against normal cells. Therefore, the glucose conjugation may be potentially used in the targeted delivery of other drugs into cells via glucose transporters (GLUTs) for cancer therapy.

Abstract
A fluorescent cyclodextrin-Tb(III) complex is successfully synthesized and can include bile salts in its hydrophobic cavities. Therefore, it can efficiently induce the secondary assembly of small bile salt primary micelles to large micelle aggregates, and the aggregation process can be easily observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fluorescence microscopy.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the preparation, in vitro release, in vivo pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of a novel polymeric micellar formulation of paclitaxel (PTX) with Pluronic P123. METHODS The polymeric micelles of paclitaxel with Pluronic P123 were prepared by a solid dispersion method. The characteristics of micelles including particle size distribution, morphology and in vitro release of PTX from micelles were carried out. PTX-loaded micellar solutions were administered through the tail vein to healthy Sprague-Dawley rats and Kunming strain mice to assess the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of PTX, respectively. Taxol, the commercially available intravenous formulation of PTX, was also administered as control. RESULTS By using a dynamic light scattering sizer and a transmission electron microscopy, it was shown that the PTX-loaded micelles had a mean size of approximately 25 nm with narrow size distribution and a spherical shape. PTX was continuously released from Pluronic P123 micelles in release medium containing 1 mol/L sodium salicylate for 24 h at 37 centigrade degree. In the pharmacokinetic assessment, t(1/2beta) and AUC of micelle formulation were 2.3 and 2.9-fold higher than that of Taxol injection. And the PTX-loaded micelles increased the uptake of PTX in the plasma, ovary and uterus, lung, and kidney, but decreased uptake in the liver and brain in the biodistribution study. CONCLUSION Polymeric micelles using Pluronic P123 can effectively solubilize PTX, prolong blood circulation time and modify the biodistribution of PTX.

Abstract
The binding capacity of bovine beta-lactoglobulin variant A (beta-Lg A) for six peptides derived from beta-Lg was evaluated using an ultrafiltration method under the following conditions: pH 6.8, 40 degrees C, and a beta-Lg A/peptide molar ratio of 1:5. Only peptides beta-Lg f102-105, f142-148, and f69-83 bound in significant amounts to beta-Lg A corresponding to 1.5, 1.1, and 0.7 mol of peptide per mole of beta-Lg A, respectively. The interaction between beta-Lg A and the antihypertensive peptide beta-Lg f142-148 was investigated further by isothermal titration calorimetry. The binding isotherms at pH 6.8 and 25 degrees C confirmed that beta-Lg f142-148 bound to beta-Lg A and that the interaction followed a sequential three-site binding model with constants of association of 2 x 10(3), 1 x 10(3), and 0.4 x 10(3) M(-1) for the first, second, and third binding sites, respectively. The enthalpy of binding was exothermic for the first and second binding sites and endothermic for the third binding site. Binding of the peptide to all three sites was spontaneous as shown by the negative free energy values. These results show for the first time that beta-Lg A can bind bioactive peptides. This potential could be exploited to transport bioactive peptides and protect them in the gastrointestinal tract following their oral administration as nutraceuticals.

Abstract
The inclusion complexation behavior of azadirachtin with several cyclodextrins and their methylated derivatives has been investigated in both solution and the solid state by means of XRD, TG-DTA, DSC, NMR, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The results show that the water solubility of azadirachtin was obviously increased after resulting inclusion complex with cyclodextrins. Typically, beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD), dimethyl-beta-cyclodextrin (DMbetaCD), permethyl-beta-cyclodextrin (TMbetaCD), and hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPbetaCD) are found to be able to solubilize azadirachtin to high levels up to 2.7, 1.3, 3.5, and 1.6 mg/mL (calculated as azadirachtin), respectively. This satisfactory water solubility and high thermal stability of the cyclodextrin-azadirachtin complexes, will be potentially useful for their application as herbal medicine or healthcare products.

Abstract
Two 6,6'-bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s linked by 2,2'-dithiobis[2-(benzoylamino)ethyleneamino] and 2,2'-dithiobis[2-(benzoylamino)diethylenetriamino] bridges (1 and 2) have been synthesized as cooperative multipoint recognition receptor models for non-aromatic oligopeptides. Their structures in solution and inclusion complexation mechanism are comprehensively investigated by means of circular dichroism, 2D NMR spectra and temperature-dependent fluorescence titrations. The results show that the cooperative 'host-linker-guest' binding mode and the extensive desolvation effect jointly contribute to the guest-induced fluorescence enhancement of bis(beta-cyclodextrin)s. Further examinations on the binding behavior of hosts 1-2 with a series of di- and tri-peptides demonstrate that bis(beta-cyclodextrin) 1 can recognize not only the size/shape of oligopeptides but also the dipeptide sequence, giving an exciting residue selectivity up to 37.5 for Gly-Gly-Gly/Glu-Glu pair and a high sequence selectivity up to 5.0 for Gly-Leu/Leu-Gly pair. These fairly good selectivities are discussed from the viewpoint of cooperative binding, multiple recognition and induced-fit interactions between host and guest.

Abstract
A series of cyclodextrin-cinchona alkaloid inclusion complexes were prepared from beta-cyclodextrin, heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin and heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin and four cinchona alkaloids in ca. 90% yields, and their inclusion complexation behavior was investigated at pH 7.2 and 1.5 by means of fluorescence, UV/Vis and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The results showed that the cinchona alkaloids can be efficiently encapsulated in the cyclodextrin cavity in an acidic environment and sufficiently released in a neutral environment, which makes these cyclodextrin derivatives the potential carriers for cinchona alkaloids. The binding ability and molecular selectivity of cyclodextrins toward cinchona alkaloids were discussed from the viewpoint of the size-fit concept and multiple recognition mechanism between host and guest.
