Multiple Processing

New crystalline coordination-polymers are obtained under conditions in which distinct metal ion coordination, hydrogen-bonding and p-p stacking subprograms are involved in independent binding events of ureidopyridyl ligands 1 and 2 by silver hexafluorophosphate or silver triflate. The geometrical information contained in the structure of the ligands 1 and 2 is fully exploited by the silver ion coordination and urea-self assembly or H-bond anion coordination templating features in an independent way. The resulted linear or angular sequences may serve to use the information stored in molecular components that could be read out by synergistic and sequential non-covalent subprograms. It results in linear or tubular supramolecular coordination polymers constructed in a bottom-up strategy.

Effect Duration

Liquid crystalline nanoparticles (LCNP) formed through lipid self-assembly have a range of attractive properties as in vivo drug delivery carriers. In particular they offer: a wide solubilization spectrum, and consequently high drug payloads; effective encapsulation; stabilization and protection of sensitive drug substances. Here we present basic physicochemical features of non-lamellar LCNP systems with a focus on intravenous drug applications. This is exemplified by the formulation properties and in vivo behavior using the drug substance propofol; a well-known anesthetic agent currently used in clinical practice in the form of a stable emulsion. In order to appraise the drug delivery features of the LCNP system the current study was carried out with a marketed propofol emulsion product as reference. In this comparison the propofol-LCNP formulation shows several useful features including: higher drug-loading capacity, lower fat-load, excellent stability, modified pharmacokinetics, and an indication of increased effect duration.
