ABSTRACT
The solubility enhancement of two poorly soluble drugs: risperidone
(Risp) and itraconazole (Itra) by complexation with cyclodextrins
has been investigated in aqueous medium. The various factors
influencing the solubility enhancement such as temperature, pH,
ionic strength and types of cyclodextrins have been considered.
Linear and nonlinear least squares analysis of phase solubility
diagrams of Risp and Itra with aqueous cyclodextrins have been
conducted to obtain the corresponding individual guest-host complex
formation constants. Molecular mechanics calculations using MM
(atomic charges and bond dipole algorithms) and Amber force fields
have been applied to study the complexation of cyclodextrin with
both drugs to rationalize the stoichiometry and determine the
optimal geometries of the complexes.
The complexation ability of Risp toward studied cyclodextrins is in
the order b- > HP-
b- >
g- >
a-CD. For neutral Itra the
order was HP--> - cyclodextrin. The 1 :1 complex formation
constant of Risp:HP--CD is found to increase with increase in the
phosphate buffer concentration in accord with the hydrophobic
interactions which are enhanced with the increase in the ionic
strength. Thermodynamic studies show that the 1:1 complex formation
is driven by enthalpy for both drugs, however the overall complex
(1:2 for Risp, 1:3 for Itra) is entropy driven. Complex stability is
found to vary with pH, with a higher formation constant for the
neutral species. Synergistic studies show that, although risperidone
has a high solubility at low pH but the solubility of -cyclodextrin
was enhanced remarkably, indicating the formation of complex even at
low pH. The three computational methods used in this work give
similar results concerning the structures of the inclusion
complexes. Van der Waals interactions seem to be dominant over
electrostatic interactions in neutral solute-cyclodextrin complexes.
Relaxation of the cyclodextrin macrocycle upon guest inclusion is
probably significant as a driving force for guest inclusion.

ABSTRACT
The fluorescence quenching of various substituted polystyrenes by
terephthalate plasticizers will be investigated in solvents of
different polarity and in solid films.
From the Stern-Volmer quenching constant and the calculated
fluorescence decay lifetime of the polymer, the values for the
quenching rate constant and quenching cross-section will be
calculated.

ABSTRACT
Kinetics of oxidation of cysteine by Co(III), Fe(III), Mn(III),
and Cr(III) based complexes with the ligands; amine (NH3),
2,2'-bipyridine (bipy), ethylenediamine (en), acetylacetonate (acac),
bromoacetylacetonate (acac-Br), nitroacetylacetonate (acac-NO2)
N,N'-bis(salicylidine)-1,2-ethylenediamine (salen),
N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine (salphen) and (1R,2R)-
(-)- N,N’-bis(3,5-di-t- butyl-salicylidene) -1,2-
cyclohexyldiamine (ch-salen), have been investigated
spectrophotometrically. The measurements were done in the visible
region, under pseudo first order condition, at 25 oC, pH
= 7 and ionic strength = 0.5 M. The value of the observed rate
constant and that of the overall rate constant were determined. The
effect of different variables on the rate of the reaction was
studied. The type of the ligand has the most significant effect on
the reaction rate, followed by the geometry of the complex, the
metal center, the solvent type, and finally, the weakly coordinated
ligand. As the ligand becomes bulky, the rate increases in cobalt
complexes (bipy > en > NH3). The opposite was found for
iron complexes (bipy > salen). As the weakly coordinated ligands,
such as (acac and Cl), increases in size, the reaction rate
decreases. The metal center affects the reaction rate according to
their reduction potentials; when the reduction potential of the
metal increases, the rate of the reaction increases in the absence
of a bulky ligand such as salen. Also, it was observed that
geometric isomers affect the rate differently; the rate of oxidation
with cis- isomer is faster than that with the trans- isomer. The
solvent type also affects the rate, as it is found that the rate of
reaction in ethanol is higher than that in water. Generally, the
reaction follows an outer-sphere mechanism in the absence of a
bridging ligand; else it follows an inner-sphere mechanism. Also, it
was found that the outer-sphere configuration is faster than the
inner-sphere configuration.

ABSTRACT
Herein, it has been envisaged to
synthesize some new ruthenium (II) complexes bearing simple cheap
diamine ligand systems leading to new structural features at the
active metal center, which is expected to give similar or more
potential catalytic activity with cheaper catalyst than what is
reported in the literature. The catalytic activity measurements will
be made on the trans-4-phenyl-3-butene-2-one (Scheme 2) as an
example ofa,b-unsaturated

ABSTRACT
The interaction of indolylzinc chloride with
2-chloro-3-nitrothiophene gave 3-(3-nitrothien-2-yl)indole, which
was reduced and acylated. The acylated product was cyclized using
POCl3 under Bischler-Napieralski conditions to afford the
respective thieno[2',3':6,7]-azepino[5,4,3-cd]indoles.

ABSTRACT
The project aims at
synthesizing a series of new oxime ligands based on chiral
triazinone compounds. These should have interesting chiroptical
properties and their complexes should also have important structural
properties (carbon-carbon couplings have been observed in the first
phase of the project). It is also anticipitated that the complexes
may have some biological activities such as antibacterial or
antifungul activities. The platinum complexes may also have some
antitumor activity.
