Increasing the Efficacy of Seproxetine as an Antidepressant Using Charge–Transfer Complexes

“…Ionic association, particularly hydrogen bonding, and other weaker forces such as charge–transfer forces, or a combination of many of these forces, can produce what is termed “receptor-drug complexing”. The capacity of drugs and related compounds to form charge–transfer complexes with well-defined electron acceptors or electron donors, primarily in non-aqueous circumstances, is used as a primary criterion for determining whether charge–transfer forces are manipulated in any way [ 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 ].…”

Charge-transfer chemistry of azithromycin, the antibiotic used worldwide to treat the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Part I: Complexation with iodine in different solvents

“…CT interactions have been used in dendrimers, photocatalysts, optical communication, non-linear optical materials, optoelectronics, organic semiconductors, biosensors, electrical conductors, organic semiconductors, organic solar cells, and solar energy storage devices [ [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] , [27] , [28] , [29] , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] , [43] , [44] , [45] , [46] , [47] ]. Complexation through the CT mechanism enables a long list of applications including studying binding mechanisms of pharmaceutical receptors, studying the pharmacodynamics and thermodynamics of molecules, and anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antimicrobial studies [ [48] , [49] , [50] , [51] , [52] , [53] , [54] , [55] , [56] , [57] , [58] , [59] , [60] , [61] , [62] , [63] , [64] , [65] , [66] ]. Given the constant increase in the number and types of applications involvin...…”

Charge-transfer chemistry of azithromycin, the antibiotic used worldwide to treat the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Part II: Complexation with several π-acceptors (PA, CLA, CHL)

“…A great deal of research has been dedicated to CT interactions due to their wide range of applications in the fields of chemistry, biology, physics, biochemistry, medicine, pharmacology, material science, and industrial technology [ [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] ]. Specifically, in the pharmacology and biochemistry fields, CT interactions contribute to the study of antimicrobial, antitumorigenic, and anti-inflammatory agents, binding mechanisms of pharmaceutical receptors, the thermodynamics and pharmacodynamics of clinical candidate compounds, DNA binding, enzymatic reactions, drug delivery, and quantitively characterizing pharmaceuticals [ [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] , [27] , [28] , [29] , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] ]. In the fields of material engineering and technology, CT interactions facilitate the development and optimization of solar energy storage devices, organic solar cells, organic semiconductors, electrical conductors, biosensors, optoelectronics, non-linear optical materials, optical communication, photocatalysts, dendrimers, and several other magnetic, optical, and electrical technologies [ [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] , [43] , [44] , [45] , [46] , [47] , [48] , [49] , [50] , [51] , [52] , [53] , [54] , [55] , [56] , [57] , [58] , [59] ,…”
