3.1 Structural and conformational analysis of CLQ and CLQ-OH in water |
T51 |
71-139 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The chemical structures of CLQ and CLQ-OH are shown in Fig. 1 (a,b). |
T52 |
140-241 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The only difference between the two molecules is the presence of a terminal hydroxyl group in CLQ-OH. |
T53 |
242-347 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This OH group has a marked influence on the conformation and water-solubilization properties of the drug. |
T54 |
348-454 |
Sentence |
denotes |
CLQ-OH may adopt a wide range of conformations, the most stable being the extended one shown in Fig. 1(c). |
T55 |
455-674 |
Sentence |
denotes |
When immersed in a periodic box of 31.5 Å2 with 1042 water molecules, the system reached, at equilibrium, an estimated energy of interaction of -92 kJ.mol−1, accounting for 56 water molecules solvating CLQ-OH Fig. 1(d). |
T56 |
675-789 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In contrast, due to an intramolecular hydrophobic effect, CLQ appeared to be more condensed than CLQ-OH Fig. 1(e). |
T57 |
790-903 |
Sentence |
denotes |
At equilibrium, CLQ was surrounded by 58 water molecules with an energy of interaction of -79 kJ.mol−1 Fig. 1(f). |
T58 |
