Studies On Rosmarinic Acid And Its Derivatives

Scopolamine Derivatives as Potential Pharmaceuticals with Calixarene-CyclodextrineNanosponges as Drug Carriers

Tropane alkaloids are molecules with a strong biological activity, which are mainly produced by the members offamily Solanaceae, but also found inother plant families (Convolvulaceae, Brasicaceae, Erythroxylaceae andEuphorbiaceae).1 More than 20 active pharmaceutical substances containingthetropane moiety have been industrially produced and applied as mydriatics, antiemetics, antispasmodics, anesthetics and bronchodilators.Nearly all of them are based on the Scopolamine structure.2 In recent years, several researchers aimed their work to the use of supramolecular systems for the inclusion of organic species, such as complex systems based on cyclodextrines or calixarenes.3They have attracted…
