Abstract

A detailed NMR (1H, COSY, and ROESY) spectroscopic study of complexation of Flunarazine (FL) with α- and β-CD was carried out. 1H NMR titration studies confirmed the formation of FL/α-CD and FL/β-CD complexes as evidenced by chemical shift variations of the proton resonances of both the CDs and FL. The stoichiometry of the complexes was determined to be 1:2 (FL/α-CD) and 1:1 (FL/β-CD) and overall binding constants were also calculated. It was confirmed with the help of ROESY spectral data that only one of the F-substituted aromatic ring and phenyl ring penetrate the α-CD cavity while both F-substituted aromatic rings as well as phenyl ring penetrates the β-CD cavity during complexation. The binding modes of FL/CD cavity interactions derived from ROESY experimental data show that the resulting complex of FL with β-CD possesses better induced fit interaction as compared to α-CD, which is responsible for the enhanced molecular stability with β-CD in comparison to α-CD. The mode of penetration of guest into the CD cavity and structures of the complexes has been established.
