Abstract

On the basis of extraction experiments in the two-phase water–nitrobenzene system and γ-activity measurements, we determined the stability constant of the cyclosporin A–Ba2+ cationic complex dissolved in nitrobenzene saturated with water as 109.1 ± 0.2. Using quantum mechanical calculations, the most probable structure of this complex species was derived. In the resulting complex, the “central” cation Ba2+ is bound by six bonds to the respective six carbonyl oxygen atoms of the parent cyclosporin A ligand. The interaction energy of this proven cationic complex was found to be −769.5 kJ mol−1, confirming also the formation of the mentioned complex species.
