A volumetric, ultraacoustical study and computational study of molecular interactions in 4-aminoantipyrine-aqueous-β-cyclodextrin solutions

Abstract

Present work reports experimental densities and corresponding apparent and standard partial molar volumes, ultrasonic velocities and isentropic, apparent and standard partial molar compressibilities of 4-Aminoantipyrine-aqueous-β-cyclodextrin (0.000 mol∙kg−1, 0.001 mol∙kg−1, 0.005 mol∙kg−1, 0.010 mol∙kg−1and 0.015 mol∙kg−1) solutions at different temperatures. Transfer properties like transfer volumes and compressions were calculated. The refractive indices of these systems were also measured. The computational properties such as solvation energy (ΔESol), relative stabilization energy (ΔERel), complexation energy (ΔEComp) and change in volume (ΔV) were computed using DFT. The results from volumetric and acoustical studies have been evaluated in terms of molecular interactions and their existence confirmed from experimental and computational studies. The values of transfer volumes and compressibilities indicate the hydrophilic-hydrophilic interactions between polar groups of 4-Aminoantipyrine and hydroxyl groups of β-cyclodextrin dominating over hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions between the phenyl group of 4-Aminoantipyrine and hydrophobic interior of β-cyclodextrin.
