In Final Form: April 9, 1998 The densities of aqueous solutions of a decylammonium chloride (DeAC)-dibucaine hydrochloride (DC‚ HCl) mixture and a DeAC-tetracaine hydrochloride (TC‚HCl) mixture were measured as a function of the total molality and composition of the mixture at 298.15 K under atmospheric pressure. The molar volumes of the mixture in the monomeric and micellar states of both systems were evaluated by applying the thermodynamic equations to the apparent molar volumes obtained from the density data. They varied linearly with composition between the values of pure components. The volume of mixed micelle formation also showed the linear dependence on the composition. These facts indicate that the DeAC and the anesthetic molecules mix ideally in both the monomeric and micellar states from the viewpoint of volume. On the other hand, the micellar composition was calculated from the composition dependence of the critical micelle concentration values. The shape of the phase diagram of micelle formation was slightly distorted cigartype due to the nonideal interaction between DeAC and the anesthetic molecules in the mixed micelle. Ideal mixing of volume in the micellar state indicates that the nonideal interaction is not so strong that it affects the molar volume of the micelle.

Introduction 1,2

Anesthetic molecules expand cell membranes. The action of anesthetics is reversed by high pressure.3-5 The phenomena show that the volume function of the anesthetics in membranes is a significant factor in molecular mechanism of anesthesia. The volume change of anesthetics from aqueous solution to hydrophobic environments such as phospholipid bilayers and micelles has been reported in connection with a model study of pressureanesthetic antagonism. This quantity was evaluated from thermodynamic analysis of the pressure dependence of the partition coefficient of the anesthetic between both states6,7 or by comparing the volumes occupied by the anesthetics in both states with each other.6,8 However, most studies of volume change are concentrated in * On leave from the Department of Biological Science and Technology, Faculty of Engineering, The University of Tokushima, Minamijosanjima, Tokushima 770, Japan.

inhalation anesthetics; similar volume studies on local anesthetics have hardly been performed except for alcohols such as benzyl alcohol.8 There are also few studies which cover all mixing ratios of the anesthetic to the membrane molecules. Partial molar volume is an important thermodynamic quantity to describe the volume behavior of molecules. Density measurement is a superior method for determining the value of the partial molar volume from experimental data directly. Molar volumes of some anesthetics in pure liquid and their partial molar volumes in water and in phospholipid bilayers have been reported.9-12 In previous papers,13,14 we measured the densities of aqueous local anesthetic solutions and characterized their volume behavior thermodynamically. The present paper reports the volume properties of the cationic surfactant decylammonium chloride (DeAC) and a local anesthetic in their (8) Kaneshina, S.; Kamaya, H.; Ueda, I. Biochim. Biophys.

mixed micelle from density measurements of aqueous DeAC and anesthetic mixtures. The hydrophobic local anesthetics dibucaine hydrochloride (DC‚HCl) and tetracaine hydrochloride (TC‚HCl) are selected for this purpose because (i) both anesthetics form micelles in the aqueous solution and this enables us to study the volume of anesthetic in the micelle in the whole range of composition and (ii) the information concerning the miscibilities of the DeAC and DC‚HCl and the DeAC and TC‚HCl systems in the micellar state has been already reported from surface tension measurements.15 Volume quantities concerning mixed micelle formation of DeAC and the anesthetic are calculated by applying the thermodynamic equations to the density data. Volume behavior and miscibilties of DeAC and the anesthetic in the micelle are discussed on the basis of the molar volumes of the mixtures between aqueous solution and micelle and of the composition of the micelle. Experimental Section Materials. Dibucaine (2-butoxy-N-[2-(diethylamino)ethyl]4-quinolinecarboxamide) hydrochloride and tetracaine (2-(dimethylamino)ethyl 4-(butylamino)benzoate) hydrochloride were purchased from Sigma Chemical Company. The anesthetics were purified by repeated recrystallizations from an ethanol and carbon tetrachloride mixture for dibucaine and from ethanol for tetracaine, respectively. Decylammonium chloride was synthesized by the method reported previously15 and recrystallized four times from ethanol. The purities of the anesthetics and surfactant were checked by elemental analysis and by measuring the surface tension of their aqueous solutions in the vicinity of the critical micelle concentration. Water was distilled twice after deionization, where the second distillation was carried out from dilute alkaline permanganate solution. Density Measurements. The densities of the aqueous surfactant-anesthetic solutions were determined with a vibrating tube density meter (Anton Paar DMA60/602) under atmospheric pressure.13 The temperature of the U-shaped glass tube was maintained at 298.15 ( 0.001 K by circulating water thermostated by a PID temperature controller (Yamashita Giken Co. Ltd. (Tokushima, Japan)). The output of the density meter was transmitted by RS232C interface to a personal computer, and it was converted into density value right away. The experimental error for the value of density was within 0.002 kg m-3 (2 ppm).

were employed as concentration variables, since it is advantageous to consider the interaction of two components in molecular aggregates.16 Here m1 and m2 are the molalities of DeAC and the anesthetic, respectively. The density F of the aqueous solutions of the mixtures was measured as a function of mt and X2. Tables 1 and 2 demonstrate the results of density measurements for the DeAC-DC‚HCl system and the DeAC-TC‚HCl system, respectively. The F values of pure DC‚HCl and TC‚HCl solutions increased linearly with (15) Matsuki, H.; Hashimoto, S.; Kaneshina, S.; Yamanaka, M. Langmuir 1997, 13, 2687. (16) Motomura, K.; Aratono, M.

All φt versus mt curves of both systems had a break point at the concentration corresponding to the critical micelle concentration (cmc). The φt values of TC‚HCl and DeAC were almost constant below the cmc while that of DC‚HCl decreased slightly with increasing mt. At the cmc, their values began to increase and approached certain values

asymptotically in the high-concentration region above the cmc. For the mixtures, the φt versus mt curves all showed similar behavior to that above for pure components, and the shape of the φt versus mt curves of both systems varied regularly with X2 from DeAC (X2 ) 0) to the anesthetic (X2 ) 1). We fitted the following equations to the φt values by the least-squares technique:

Although decylammonium and local anesthetic cations are weak electrolytes, we assumed in this study that DeAC and the anesthetics are uni-univalent electrolytes on account of their relatively high pKa values, as described previously.15,17 By analyzing the behavior of the φt versus mt curves given in Figures 1 and 2 thermodynamically, two important quantities about volume, the molar volume of the mixtures in the monomeric state VW t and that in the 18-20 The VW and , can be obtained. micellar state VM/NM t t M/NM values were evaluated from the derivative of the V t quantity mtφt with respect to mt at constant T and p at a concentration below the cmc and that in a sufficiently high concentration range above the cmc, respectively:18 W W VW t ) X1V1 + X2V2 ) [∂(mtφt)/∂mt]T,p,X2 (mt < Ct) (7)

The quantities V and Nt are defined as the excess quantities with reference to the dividing spherical interface which is located around the micelle, so as to make the excess number of water molecules zero.21 From eqs 5 and 6, we obtain the following equations

The evaluated ∂(mtφt)/∂mt values of both systems are depicted in the form of a ∂(mtφt)/∂mt versus mt plot in Figures 3 and 4. The ∂(mtφt)/∂mt versus mt curves of both systems were similar to the φt versus mt curves in the concentration range below the cmc. However, a discontinuous change due to micelle formation was observed on all curves at the cmc. The ∂(mtφt)/∂mt values reached constant values with increasing mt in the concentration range above the cmc. The magnitude of the discontinuous changes of the mixtures at the cmc became smaller with increasing X2 although their ∂(mtφt)/∂mt values increased with X2.

where the superscript 0 represents the pure component. These relations mean that the partial molar volumes of DeAC and local anesthetic in the aqueous solution and micelle are almost equal to the molar volumes of pure DeAC and local anesthetic, respectively. Therefore, we can say that the molar volumes of monomer and micelles of both mixtures behave ideally. Yamanaka et al. reported similar behavior in the mixture of dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTAC) and DC‚HCl20 and those of alkyltrimethylammonium halides.18,19 The volume of mixed micelle formation from DeAC and the anesthetic monomers ∆M WV is defined by the equation21

Here we assumed that the V1W and V2W values at sufficiently high concentrations are the same as those at the cmc.25,26 The evaluated ∆M WV values of both systems are plotted against X2 in Figure 6. A linear decrease of ∆M WV values between those of pure DeAC and the anesthetic was found in both systems. By using eqs 13 and 14, eq 15 can be expressed as the following form in both systems M M ∆M h M,0 - VW,0 h M,0 - VW,0 WV ≈ X1 (V 1 1 ) + X2 (V 2 2 )

This means that the volumes of mixed micelle formation of both systems are nearly ideal; in other words, the DeAC and the anesthetic molecules are miscible ideally in their mixed micelle from the viewpoint of volume. M Finally, we compared the XW 2 value with the X2 value in order to consider the miscibility of DeAC and the anesthetic in their mixed micelle. The Ct values determined from the break points in Figures 1 and 2 are drawn in the form of the Ct versus X2 plot in Figure 7. The Ct values of both systems (open circles) were in good agreement with those obtained from the previous surface tension study15 (closed circles). They increased with increasing X2. The XM 2 values are calculated by applying the equation16,21

W The ∆M and VM/NM WV values were evaluated from Vt t

to the Ct versus X2 curves in Figure 7. The calculated XM 2 values and X2 (namely XW 2 ) values construct the diagrams called the phase diagram of micelle formation. The resulting diagrams of both systems are shown in Figure 7. The XM 2 values of both systems were smaller than the XW 2 values over the whole range of composition, and both diagrams had a cigar shape. The micelle is more abundant in DeAC than in the aqueous solution although DeAC and the anesthetic molecules mix completely in the micellar state. The thinner phase diagram of the DeACDC‚HCl system than that of the DeAC-TC‚HCl system implies that greater quantities of DC‚HCl than TC‚HCl exist in the mixed micelle. The more hydrophobic DC‚

The volume study on local anesthetics gives us important information, since the volume function of local anesthetic molecules is closely related to the anesthetic mechanisms. Volume properties of mixed micelles formed by DeAC and a micelle-forming local anesthetic were investigated by measuring the densities of aqueous solutions of DeAC and the anesthetic mixtures. The molar volumes of the mixtures in the monomeric and micellar states were calculated from the thermodynamic analysis of apparent molar volumes. The ideal mixing of the DeAC and the anesthetic molecules in both states was shown from the linear variation of the molar volume of both states; namely, the volumes of mixed micelle formation were almost ideal. The phase diagrams of micelle formation showed that the DeAC and the anesthetic molecules interact nonideally in their mixed micelle. However, the nonideal interaction does not affect the molar volume of the micelle. Acknowledgment. This study was supported in part by DVA Medical Research Funds. LA971385A
