Solubility of carbon tetrachloride ($CCl_4$) in water increases appreciably in presence of $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$CD). $CCl_4$ is a very good quencher of 1-naphthol (1ROH) fluorescence. By studying the quenching of fluorescence of 1ROH included in $\beta$CD cavity, it was found that there is an increase in the availability of $CCl_4$ around $\beta$CD in the aqueous medium. This could help to rationalize the enhanced solubility of $CCl_4$.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of cyclodextrins (CDs) and different acids on the solubility of fluconazole, and o formulate its more concentrated parenteral aqueous solution. Solubility studies of fluconazole with 7-CD, 2-hydroxypropyl-$\beta$-CD (HPCD), sulfobutyl ether $\beta$-CD (SBCD) and dimethyl-$\beta$-CD(DMCD) were performed. The aqueous solubility of fluconazole was measured in different concentrations of different acids with or without addition of CDs. Solubility of fluconazole increased in the rank order of $\beta$-CD$^1$H-NMR studies confirmed the formation of an inclusion complex of fluconazole with HPCD. It was also shown by the NMR studies that the complex formed was a 1:1 complex. Among the different acids used, maleic acid and phosphoric acid increased solubility of fluconazole. The lower the pH of solution is, the more fluconazole dissolved, regardless of acids. Addition of HPCD (50 mM) to acid solutions increased the solubility about two times. New fluconazole injections at a dose of 10 mg/ml could be prepared in aqueous solutions containing 10% HPCD or 15% SBCD. These parenteral solutions did not form any precipitates at 4$^{\circ}C$ and was very stable at elevated temperatures. These results demonstrate that it is possible to develop a parenteral aqueous solution of fluconazole with a smaller injection volume using HPCD or SBCD.

The inclusion complexes of cyclodextrins (CDs) with flavones in aqueous solution were investigated by phase solubility measurements. The effect of b -cyclodextrin (b -CD), heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl) b -cyclodextrin (DM-b -CD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-b -cyclodextrin (HP-b -CD) on the aqueous solubility of three flavones, namely, chrysin, apigenin and luteolin was investigated, respectively. Solubility enhancements of all flavones obtained with three CDs followed the rank order: HP-b -CD > DM-b -CD > b -CD, and besides, CDs show higher stability constant on luteolin than that on others flavones. 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and molecular modeling was used to help establish the model of interaction of the CDs with luteolin. NMR spectroscopic analysis suggested that A-C ring, and part of the B ring of luteolin display favorable interaction with the CDs, which was also confirmed by docking studies based on the molecular simulation. The observed augmentation of solubility of luteolin by three CDs was explained by the difference of electrostatic interaction of each complex, especially hydrogen bonding.

Dimeric ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin linked by a thioether bridge was synthesized from a reaction of mono-6-iodo-6-deoxy-${\beta}$-cyclodextrin with sodium sulfide, and the structure was analyzed using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The effects of thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD on the aqueous solubility of flavonols (myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol) were investigated by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The aqueous solubility of myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol were enhanced 33.6-, 12.4-, and 10.5-fold following the addition of 9 mM of thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD. In comparison, the aqueous solubility of myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol were enhanced 5.4-, 3.3-, and 2.7-fold using the same concentration of monomeric ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin. Furthermore, the formation of flavonol/thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD inclusion complexes was confirmed with nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the nature of the complexes significantly differed from that of free flavonols. Herein, we suggest that the thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD can act as an effective complexing agent for flavonols.

In this work, solid-state inclusion complex powders of itraconazole and $2-hydroxypropyl-{\beta}-cyclodextrin(HP-{\beta}-CD)$ were produced by a supercritical anti-solvent (SAS) process. In order to evaluate the degree of complexation, the thermal behavior of the microparticulate complexes was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry. The experimental results obtained for the solubility and dissolution rate of the microparticulate inclusion complexes in a buffer solution of pH 1.2 showed that the complexation of itraconazole with $HP-{\beta}-CD$ results in a significant increase in the solubility and dissolution rate of itraconazole. The particle size of the SAS-produced inclusion complexes was dramatically reduced ($<0.1-0.5{\mu}m$) compared with untreated itraconazole ($30-50{\mu}m$) and $HP-{\beta}-CD$ ($50-100{\mu}m$). The solubility of itraconazole was increased with the increase of pressure at a constant temperature to ca. $758.6{\mu}g/mL$ in an aqueous medium of pH 1.2. The dissolution rate of itraconazole was observed to be significantly improved and about 90% of itraconazole was found to be dissolved within 5-10 min.

An inclusion complex of muscone with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ (CD), as a solid form of muscone, was prepared to increase the solubility of muscone. The molar ratio of muscone to ${\beta}-CD$ in complex was in the range of $1:1{\sim}1:5$ when prepared by freeze-drying method. The interaction of muscone with ${\beta}-CD$ in solid state was investigated by Infrared (IR) spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). IR and DSC studies between $muscone-{\beta}-CD$ inclusion complex and physical mixture showed that $muscone-{\beta}-CD$ inclusion complex was prepared stably. From the amount of muscone incorporated in the inclusion complex, it was found that the molar ratio of muscone : ${\beta}-CD$ was 1:1. Relative spatial position of muscone and ${\beta}-CD$ was observed by Hyperchem molecular modelling program.

Amiodarone hydrochloride is an antiarrhythmic agent which has low aqueous solubility and presents bioavailability problem. These properties are a challenge for the pharmaceutical industry. Inclusion of lipophilic compound in the hydrophobic core of micelles, i.e. self-assembled structures based on surfactants in aqueous solution, is one way of increasing the solubility. Intravenous formulation of amiodarone hydrochloride with polysorbate 80 as a detergent and benzyl alcohol as a co-solvent is used in medical practice. This paper aimed to study the effect of polysorbate 80 and benzyl alcohol on the water solubility of amiodarone hydrochloride. Formation of mixed micelles consisting of nonionic surfactant polysorbate 80 and cationic amiodarone with chloride counterion was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy. Benzyl alcohol was found to decrease the stability of the mixed micelles and lead to crystallization of amiodarone hydrochloride. The greatest amounts of crystals formed at 4℃ for 30 days in the model drug solutions with polysorbate 80 concentrations of 100.1 mg/mL and 97.9 mg/mL. A change of the polysorbate 80 concentration and avoidance the use of benzyl alcohol are recommended to improve the stability of the parenteral dosage form. These results can open new perspectives in the optimization of amiodarone intravenous formulations.

Inclusion complex of omeprazole(OMZ) with hydroxypropyl-$\beta$-cyclodextrin(HP-$\beta$-CD) was prepared by freeze-drying method. The complexation was confirmed by means of UV, CD, IR, DSC, XRD and $^{1}$H-NMR spectra. The benzimidazole moiety of OMZ might be found to be included into the cavity of HP-$\beta$-CD and the inclusion complex appeared to be $A_{L}$ type. The stoichiometric ratio of OMZ : HP-$\beta$-CD was found to be 1:1, and the stability constants of the inclusion complex by solubility and UV method were about 34 and 45 M$^{-1}$, respectively. The dissolution of OMZ was significantly enhanced from powder and. yablet of OMZ-HP-$\beta$-CD complex when compared to those of OMZ alone, and oil-to-water partition coefficient of OMZ-HP-$\beta$-CD complex was significantly higher than that of OMZ alone. Therefore, it was expected that the bioavailability of OMZ could be improved markedly by inclusion complexation of OMZ with HP-$\beta$-CD.
