Complexation And its
applications

Complex Compounds
 Complex compounds are defined as those molecules in which most of the
bonding structures can be described by classical theories of valency between
atoms but one or more of these bonds are anomalous .
 The intermolecular forces involved in the formation of complexes are :
Covalent or co - ordinated bonds
Van der waals forces
Ion-dipole , dipole-dipole interactions
Hydrogen Bonding
Properties of Complexes
 Complexes possess some properties which are different from those of its
components .
 Properties such as solubility, light absorption, conductance, partitioning
behavior and chemical reactivity are studied to confirm the formation of
complexes.
Applications of complexes in pharmacy
 Physical state can be altered with complex formation for processing tasks e.g
nitroglycerine can be transformed to crystalline inclusion complex with Beta
cyclodextrin.
 Volatility can be reduced to increase stability or reduce bad odour e.g
formulation of iodine as a complex with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) .
 Solid state stability can be enhanced e.g Beta cyclodextrin complexes of
vitamin A and D are stabilized chemically.
 Chemical Stability can be altered e.g rate of hydrolysis of benzocaine can be
reduced by complexing it with caffeine.
 Solubility can be enhanced e.g at low concentrations caffeine enhances the
solubility of P-amino benzoic acid (PABA) .
Applications of complexes in pharmacy
 Dissolution can be improved e.g dissolution rate of phenobarbital is enhanced
by cyclodextrin inclusion complexes .
 There are many other uses of complexes in pharmacy
Absorption and Availability
Reduced Toxicity
Antidote
Antibacterial Activity
Some important complexes available as
drugs
 Cisplatin
 Pvidone Iodine
Classification of Complexes
 Metal Complexes
1 Inorganic types 2 Chelates 3 Olefin types 4 Aromatic types
 Organic Molecular Complexes
1 Drug and caffeine complexes 2 Polymer types 3 Picric acid types
4 Quinhydrone types
 Inclusion Complexes
1 Channel types 2 Layer types 3 Clathrates 4 Monomolecular types
