Structure, Synthesis, and Antiulcer Activity of the Complex Compound of Hydroxymethyluracil with β-Cyclodextrin
摘要
5-Hydroxy-6-methyluracil has been shown to react in aqueous medium with the natural oligosaccharide β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) to form a complex compound with a 1:1 stoichiometric composition. The stability constant of the complex (K ~ 103 L/mol) was determined and the thermodynamic parameters of complexation were calculated (∆H° = –41 ± 7 kJ/mol, ∆S° = –62 ± 11 J/(mol∙K), ∆G°296 = –23 ± 4 kJ/mol] in the temperature range 296 – 321 K. A method for synthesizing the complex compound was proposed based on the results. The antiulcer activity of the complex was studied in acetylsalicylic and histamine ulcer models. The 5-hydroxy-6-methyluracil complex with β-cyclodextrin at a dose of 50 mg/kg was found to have pronounced antiulcer activity comparable to that of carbenoxolone at a dose of 100 mg/kg. Also, the amount of 5-hydroxy-6-methyluracil in the complex was only 11 wt%. The remaining 89 wt% was accounted for by β-CD.
