Beryllium and its compounds are highly toxic to most living cells, but the mechanisms of the interference with the biological substrates on the molecular level is not understood. From observations in (attempted) chemotherapy of beryllium poisoning using a variety of complexing agents it has been concluded that Be2+ is interacting predominantly with carboxyl as well as hydroxyl functions of protein bio-polymers, with complete deprotonation of the alkoxy or phenoxy functions involved. As a first support for this hypothesis, an analytically well-defined beryllium complex of glycolic acid has now been isolated from aqueous solutions under nearphysiological conditions, crystallized and its structure determined by X-ray diffraction. The hexanuclear complex features beryllium in two different environments, mono- and bis-chelated by glycolate ligands with deprotonated hydroxyl groups. In 9Be-NMR studies of aqueous solutions of the complex (pH 6) the persistence of complexation in two different environments of Be2+ could also be confirmed. The new structure may serve as a model for beryllium complexation with larger bio-ligands.

The enantioselectivity of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) towards L- and D-N-acetyltryptophan (NAcTrp) has been studied in aqueous solution and the crystalline state. NMR studies in solution show that β-CD forms complexes of very similar but not identical geometry with both L- and D-NAcTrp and exhibits stronger binding with L-NAcTrp. In the crystalline state, only β-CD–L-NAcTrp crystallizes readily from aqueous solutions as a dimeric complex (two hosts enclosing two guest molecules). In contrast, crystals of the complex β-CD–D-NAcTrp were never obtained, although numerous conditions were tried. In aqueous solution, the orientation of the guest in both complexes is different than in the β-CD–L-NAcTrp complex in the crystal. Overall, the study shows that subtle differences observed between the β-CD–L,D-NAcTrp complexes in aqueous solution are magnified at the onset of crystallization, as a consequence of accumulation of many soft host–guest interactions and of the imposed crystallographic order, thus resulting in very dissimilar propensity of each enantiomer to produce crystals with β-CD.
