Determination of substitution positions in hyaluronic acid hydrogels using NMR and MS based methods

In hydrogels of cross-linked polysaccharides, the total amount of cross-linker and the degree of cross-linking influence the properties of the hydrogel. The substitution position of the cross-linker on the polysaccharide is another parameter that can influence hydrogel properties; hence methods for detailed structural analysis of the substitution pattern are required. NMR and LC-MS methods were developed to determine the positions and amounts of substitution of 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) on hyaluronic acid (HA), and for the first time it is shown that BDDE can react with any of the four available hydroxyl groups of the HA disaccharide repeating unit. This was achieved by studying di-, tetra-, and hexasaccharides obtained from degradation of BDDE cross-linked HA hydrogel by chondroitinase. Furthermore, amount of linker substitution at each position was shown to be dependent on the size of the oligosaccharides. For the disaccharide, substitutions were predominantly at ΔGlcA-OH2 and GlcNAc-OH6 while in the tetra- and hexasaccharides, it was mainly at the reducing end GlcNAc-OH4. In the disaccharide there was no substitution at this position. Since chondroitinase is able to completely hydrolyse non-substituted HA into unsaturated disaccharides, these results indicate that the enzyme is prevented to cleave on the non-reducing side of an oligosaccharide substituted at the reducing end GlcNAc-OH4. The procedure can be adopted for the determination of substitution positions in other types of polymers.

Enantiopure or enantioenriched BDDE and its use as crosslinking agent in the manufacture of cross-linked products

Enantiomers of butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) are present in an enantiomerically enriched enantioenriched mixture of BDDE stereisomers or in an enantiomerically pure BDDE. Enantiomerically enriched or pure BDDE is useful as a cross-linking agent, such as in the preparation of a cross-linked hyaluronic acid product.

Dinuclear macrocyclic polyamine zinc(II) complexes linked with flexible spacers: Synthesis, characterization, and DNA cleavage

Dinuclear macrocyclic polyamine zinc(II) complexes, which have two cyclen groups linked by flexible spacers, have been synthesized as DNA cleavage agents. The structures of these new dinuclear complexes are consistent with the data obtained from elemental analysis, MS and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The catalytic activity of these dinuclear complexes on DNA cleavage was studied. The results showed that the dinuclear zinc(II) complexes can catalyze the cleavage of supercoiled DNA (pUC 19 plasmid DNA) (Form I) under physiological conditions to produce selectively nicked DNA (Form II).
