The inclosion of dextromethorphan (DMN) by beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)
was studied by using chromatography, UV spectroscopy and circular dic
hroism methods at 25 degrees C, pH 7.4 and 4.2. It was found that the
beta CD : DMN complex has 1 : 1 stoichiometry. It is more stable al pH
7.4 than at pH 4.2. with constants respectively equal to 8000 +/- 800
M(-1) and 5750 +/- 500 M(-1), as determined by chromatography. The st
ability of the complex at pH 7.4 decreases as the temperature increase
s. From the van't Hoff dependence the standard entropy and enthalpy ch
anges were determined at this pH.
