Abstract
Different ethylated β-cyclodextrin (Et-β-CD) derivatives were obtained by various synthetic routes and their chemical structures and physical properties were elucidated. The aqueous solubility studies were carried out at 25 and 37°C. A gas phase chromatography analysis, with head space extraction, was developed to detect the presence of residual solvents in the dry preparations. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry allowed the determination of the average degree of substitution and the molecular mass of the Et-β-CDs. Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis was used to elucidate the relationship between the solubility behavior and substituted positions of ethyl groups on the CD glucopyranose units. Finally, this paper deals with different physico-chemical methods used to fully characterize the different batches of Et-β-CD to correlate the data obtained with the pharmacotechnical behavior of these cyclodextrins.
