Host-guest processes and formulations for delivering bio-affecting compounds

摘要

The invention relates to processes of making a composition having a host compound capable of accepting one or more bio-affecting guest compounds, and compositions formed by the processes. The processes comprise mixing, in any order: (i) a non-ionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of compounds having chemical structure where "-CH-O-CH-" represents an epoxide group, where Ra and Rb are hydrocarbons that can be the same or different, where at least one of the Ra and Rb hydrocarbons includes an epoxide group within 3 carbons of the hydrocarbon attachment to contribute to the desired hydrolipid balance of 7-9, where Rc is hydrogen or a methyl group, and where Rd is a methylene group, and ethyl group, or a structurally equivalent link with a bond length range about the same as or shorter than that provided by an ethyl group, and having a hydro-lipid balance in the range 7-9; (ii) an amphoteric surfactant selected from the group consisting of organic compounds having the chemical formula NH3-R-COOH, where R is a straight, branched, or aromatic hydrocarbon structure having 6-24 carbons; (iii) a solvent for the amphoteric surfactant; (iv) an aromatic selected from the group consisting of compounds having at (I) least one aromatic five or six-member ring; (v) an aluminum cation; (vi) a Lewis acid that is not a Bronsted-Lowry acid; and (vii) a Bronsted-Lowry acid.
