Inclusion complexes of diclofenac sodium with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ were prepared in aqueous solution, alkaline solution and solid phase. The interaction of diclofenac sodium with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ in pH 9.0 alkaline solution was evaluated by the solubility method and the instrumental analysis such as thermal analysis, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry. The solubility of diclofenac sodium was increased linearly with the increase in the concentration of ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$up to 0.15 mol and showed that the aqueous solubility rate of diclofenac sodium was significantly increased by complex with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$. The optimum composition of this complex was one molecule of ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ included 1.59 molecular weight of diclofenac sodium as a guest molecule. The pharmacokinetic parameters of the diclofenac sodium and the complex with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ were studied in rats by oral route. $T_{max}$ between drug alone and inclusion complex showed significant difference to be 120 minute and 20 minute respectively. Both of $C_{max}$ and AUC of inclusion complex was about 40% higher than drug alone. It is estimated from the data in this study that complexation of diclofenac sodium with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ increased the absorption rate and improved the bioavalability of the diclofenac sodium by the formation of a water-soluble complexes.

Although ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin (${\beta}$-CD) has been used as medicine, agrichemical, food, cosmetic, antioxidant, anti-volatile agent, anti-hygroscopic agent, fading-protecting agent, and emulsifier due to its ability to form inclusion complex by enclosing another molecule (guest molecule), it has been restricted in practical application because of its low solubility in water and organic solvent. In this study, ${\beta}$-CD derivative as a new polyol with inclusion characteristics against Bisphenol A and cyclopropane, foaming agent for polyurethane (PU), and with improved solubility was synthesized, characterized and used to formulate rigid PU foam with better thermal conductivity and compressive strength compared to that from commercial polyols.

An efficiency of Monte Carlo (MC) docking simulations was examined for the prediction of chiral discrimination by cyclodextrins. Docking simulations were performed with various computational parameters for the chiral discrimination of a series of 17 enantiomers by $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD) or by 6-amino-6-deoxy-$\beta$-cyclodextrin (am-$\beta$-CD). A total of 30 sets of enantiomeric complexes were tested to find the optimal simulation parameters for accurate predictions. Rigid-body MC docking simulations gave more accurate predictions than flexible docking simulations. The accuracy was also affected by both the simulation temperature and the kind of force field. The prediction rate of chiral preference was improved by as much as 76.7% when rigid-body MC docking simulations were performed at low-temperatures (100 K) with a sugar22 parameter set in the CHARMM force field. Our approach for MC docking simulations suggested that the conformational rigidity of both the host and guest molecule, due to either the low-temperature or rigid-body docking condition, contributed greatly to the prediction of chiral discrimination.

A group of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) with specific recognition for chiral (S)-ibuprofen were successfully prepared based on hydrogen bonds, utilizing ${\alpha}$-methacrylic acid as a functional monomer. The IR analysis of MIPs showed that the blue- and red-shifted hydrogen bonds were formed between templates and functional monomers in the process of self-assembly imprinting and re-recognition, respectively. According to UV-Vis analysis, we found that the ratio of host-guest complexes between template molecule and functional monomer was 1:1. The effect of cross-linker's quantity on the polymerization was studied by transmission electron microscope (TEM). The adsorption selectivity experiments indicated that MIPs exhibited higher selectivity to (S)-ibuprofen than those to ketoprofen and (R)-ibuprofen, (S)-ibuprofen's structural analogs.

The effects of $\alpha$- and $\beta$-cyclodextrins (CD) on the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) behavior of p-N,N'-dimethylaminobenzoic acid (DMABA) in buffered aqueous solution have been investigated by examining formation and decay behaviors of the TICT-typical dual fluorescence. The ratio of the TICT emission to the normal emission (I$_a$/I$_b$) increases linearly $\alpha$-CD concentration increases, while in the presence of $\beta$-CD it shows nonlinear dependences on the CD concentration. The analysis of the CD-dependent changes of the I$_a$/I$_b$ and absorption spectra demonstrates formation of 1:1 inclusion complexes between DMABA and CDs. The decay time of the normal emission (ca. 700 ps) is little affected by the formation of $\alpha$-CD inclusion complex, whereas it increases upto ca. 1.6 ns upon formation of $\beta$-CD inclusion complex. The TICT emission for the $\beta$-CD inclusion complex exhibits two decay components while it shows a single component for the $\alpha$-CD inclusion complex, indicating formation of one or two types of inclusion complex in the presence of $\alpha$-CD or $\beta$-CD, respectively. These results are attributed to the CD cavity size dependence on patterns of complexation between CDs and DMABA. The CD size dependences of the TICT fluorescence properties with the orientation of the guest molecule demonstrate that the specific hydrogen bonding between the carboxylic acid group and water plays an important role in the excited-state TICT.

The formation of inclusion complexes between cyclodextrin(CD) and Congo red was studied by spectrophotometric methods at various temperatures. The cavity sizes are 0.49 nm, 0.62 nm for $\alpha$-and $\beta$-CD, respectively. Therefore, $\alpha$-CD was not found to form an inclusion complex with Congo red due to steric hinderance. In the $\beta$-CD use two $\beta$-CD molecules formed an inclusion complex with one molecule of Congo red, from the slope of the S-shaped curve increased. Two prominent isosbestic points appear at 346 nm and 478 nm. The formation constants were decreased with the increasing temperatures, due to low binding energy between $\beta$-CD and Congo red. The thermodynamic parameters were calculated from the plot of $lnK_f$ vs 1/T. The $\Delta$H, $\Delta$S and $\Delta$G were -50.73 kJ/mol, $-108.96J/K{\cdot}mol$ and -18.26 kJ/mol, respectively.

On the basis of our previous paper[Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 1995, 16, 1015], the relative stability, ionization potential, and chemical reaction of the neutral and multiply charged $C_{60}$n ions(n=3+ to 6-) have been investigated by the semi-empirical MNDO method. $C_{60}^{1-}$ has the highest stability. The ionization potential values of the $C_{60}$ ions range from 15.31 eV of $C_{60}^{2+}$ to -13.01 eV of $C_{60}^{6-}$. These values show a linear relationship according to charges. The average IP per charge is 3.15 eV from our calculations and 3.22 eV from the linear function of IP. A charge- or electron-transfer reaction of $C_{60}^{n+}$ will only occur if the ionization potential of any guest molecule is lower than the electron affinity of the host $C_{60}^{n+}$. If the energy gap between ionization potential and electron affinity, ${\Delta}_{IP-EA}$, is high, charge-transfer reactions arise by the charge-controlled effect. However, if ${\Delta}_{IP-EA}$ is low, electron-transfer reactions arise by the frontier-controlled effect.

In this study, the inclusion phenomena of tetrahydrofuran + 3-hydroxytetrahydrofuran + $CH_4$ clathrate hydrates were explored via thermodynamic and spectroscopic approaches. The phase equilibria of the double hydrates - THF + $CH_4$ and 3-OH THF + $CH_4$ clathrate hydrates - were determined by pressure-temperature trace during hydrate formation and dissociation, and the result revealed that the equilibrium pressures were shifted to lower pressure region compared to pure $CH_4$ hydrate. The powder X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that the double hydrates of THF + 3-OH THF formed structure II type clathrate hydrates with $CH_4$. The dispersive Raman spectra of the double clathrate hydrates also exhibited that $CH_4$ can be trapped in both $5^{12}6^4$ and $5^{12}$ cages whereas THF and 3-OH THF were encaged in $5^{12}6^4$ cage.

The growth behavior of $CH_4$ and $SF_6$ mixture gas hydrate has been investigated by a combined approach of Raman spectroscopy and molecular modeling. Raman spectroscopy results presented that when $CH_4$ is used only, $CH_4$ guest molecule is inserted first into the large cavity of the host structure built by $H_2O$ molecules and then into the small cavity to stabilize the whole gas hydrate structure. In the other hand, when $SF_6$ is mixed together, $SF_6$ is favored over (or competing with) $CH_4$ in being inserted into the large cavity and the small cavity still prefers $CH_4$ insertion. The calculations of binding energies clearly supported this. While $SF_6$ has a binding energy of -26.9 kcal/mol a little lower than -24.2 kcal/mol of $CH_4$ in the large cavity, $SF_6$ and $CH_4$ has 1.2 kcal/mol and -22.0 kcal/mol, respectively, in the small cavity. It indicates that the sizable $SF_6$ is not preferred in the small cavity but has a relative energetic advantage over $CH_4$ in the large cavity.
