Lipophilic Interactions (lipophilic + interaction)
Selected AbstractsSpin-Crossover Physical Gels: A Quick Thermoreversible Response Assisted by Dynamic Self-OrganizationCHEMISTRY - AN ASIAN JOURNAL, Issue 1 2007Tsuyohiko Fujigaya Abstract Iron(II) triazolate coordination polymers with lipophilic sulfonate counterions with alkyl chains of different lengths have been synthesized. In hydrocarbon solvents, these polymers formed a physical gel and showed a thermoreversible spin transition upon the sol,gel phase transition. The formation of a hydrogen-bonding network between the triazolate moieties and sulfonate ions, bridged by water molecules, was found to play an important role in the spin-crossover event. The spin-transition temperature was tuned over a wide range by adding a small amount of 1-octanol, a scavenger for hydrogen-bonding interactions. This additive was essential for the iron(II) species to adopt a low-spin state. Compared with nongelling references in aromatic solvents, the spin-crossover physical gels are characterized by their quick thermal response, which is due to a rapid restoration of the hydrogen-bonding network, possibly because of a dynamic structural ordering through an enhanced lipophilic interaction of the self-assembling components in hydrocarbon solvents. [source] Controlled drug release from gels using surfactant aggregates: I. Effect of lipophilic interactions for a series of uncharged substancesJOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES, Issue 9 2001Mattias Paulsson Abstract Gels are often used for the delivery of drugs because they have rheological properties that will give a long residence time. Most pharmaceutical gels consist of ,99% water and a polymer matrix that will not hinder the release of drugs with a small molecular weight. To fully take advantage of the residence time, it is necessary to have a sustained drug release. In this paper it is suggested that surfactant micelles can be used to control the release from gels. The in vitro release under physiological conditions of five parabens from four different poly(acrylic acid) gels (Carbopol 934, 940, 1342) and one gellan gum (Gelrite) gel was measured using a USP dissolution bath modified for gels, and the diffusion coefficients were calculated. The diffusion coefficient of uncharged parabens was generally lower in gels with lipophilic modifications, such as C1342, and the greatest effect was seen for butylparaben, with a diffusion that was 25% lower than that in C934 (lacking lipophilic modification). Addition of surfactant micelles to gels delayed the release of all the uncharged drugs in all types of gels studied. The slowest release was seen for butylparaben in a lipophilically modified gel with micelles present. The diffusion coefficient in such a system was almost 30 times smaller than that in C934 without micelles. © 2001 Wiley-Liss, Inc. and the American Pharmaceutical Association J Pharm Sci 90:1216,1225, 2001 [source] Physicochemical interactions between drugs and superdisintegrantsJOURNAL OF PHARMACY AND PHARMACOLOGY: AN INTERNATI ONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCE, Issue 12 2008Nelly Fransén We have evaluated the interactions between superdisintegrants and drugs with different physicochemical characteristics, which may affect the in-vivo absorption e.g. after mucosal administration. The binding of sodium salicylate, naproxen, methyl hydroxybenzoate (methylparaben), ethyl hydroxybenzoate (ethylparaben), propyl hydroxybenzoate (propylparaben), atenolol, alprenolol, diphenhydramine, verapamil, amitriptyline and cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate (CPC) to different superdisintegrants (sodium starch glycolate (SSG), croscarmellose sodium (CCS) and crospovidone) and one unsubstituted comparator (starch) was studied spectrophotometrically. An indication of the in-vivo effect was obtained by measuring the interactions at physiological salt concentrations. SSG was investigated more thoroughly to obtain release profiles and correlation between binding and ionic strength. The results showed that the main interactions with the anionic hydrogels formed by SSG and CCS were caused by ion exchange, whereas the neutral crospovidone exhibited lipophilic interactions with the non-ionic substances. The effect of increased ionic strength was most pronounced at low salt concentrations and the ion exchange interactions were almost completely eradicated at physiological conditions. The release profile of diphenhydramine was significantly affected by the addition of salt. It was thus concluded that the choice of buffer was of great importance for in-vitro experiments with ionic drugs. At physiological salt concentrations the interactions did not appear to be strong enough to influence the in-vivo bioavailability of any of the drug molecules.

The croconate ligand bridges the MnII ions in a bis-bidentate chelation mode, forming an extended [Mn(C5O5)]n chain running parallel to the [001] direction, with the lipophilic 2,2,-bipy ligands lying along one side and the hydrophilic water molecules along the opposite side. Coordinated water and solvent water molecules are arranged in the hydrophilic layer, which is characterized by O,H...O hydrogen bonds between croconate ligands. Meanwhile, 2,2,-bipy ligands from adjacent chains partially overlap and exhibit ,,, interactions to form a lipophilic layer. The hydrophilic and lipophilic layers are arranged alternately to build a layer structure. [source] |
