Abstract
Molecular interactions of plumbagin inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin (BCD), dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (MBCD), and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPBCD) were investigated by semi-empirical, ParameterizationMethod 6 and 7 (PM6, and PM7) in the aqueous phase using polarizable continuum calculations. The results revealed two different binding modes of the plumbagin molecule inside the BCD cavity with a negative value of the complexation energy. In conformation-I, the hydroxyl phenolic group of plumbagin was placed in the BCD cavity near the narrow-side of the host molecule. In the othermodel, conformation-II, themethyl quinone group of plumbagin was placed in the cavity of BCD near the narrow-side of the host molecule. The higher the negative value of the complexation energy, themore favorable is the pathway of inclusion-complex formation. © 2018 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
