Abstract
The inclusion complexation behavior of salbutamol, sotalol and atenolol drugs with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) were investigated by UV–visible, fluorometry, time resolved fluorescence, FT-IR, 1H NMR, SEM and PM3 methods. The above drugs gave a single emission maximum in water where as dual emission in β-CD. In β-CD solutions the shorter wavelength fluorescence intensity was regularly decreased and longer wavelength fluorescence intensity increased. Addition of β-CD to aqueous solutions of drugs resulted into excimer emission. The excimer emission is concluded to be due to a 1:2 inclusion complex between β-CD and drug. Nanosecond time-resolved studies indicated that all drugs exhibited biexponential decay in solvents and triexponential decay in CD. Investigations of thermodynamic and electronic properties confirmed the stability of the inclusion complex.
