Two camptothecin derivatives, 10-cyclohexyl-7-methyl-20(S)-camptothecin and 7-methyl-10-morpholino-20(S)-camptothecin, were synthesized and their differences in solubility were investigated using four chosen solvent systems. Based on our results, 10-cyclohexyl-7-methyl-20(S)-camptothecin exhibited higher solubilities than 7-methyl-10-morpholino-20(S)-camptothecin in polar aprotic solvents. However, these two camptothecin derivatives did not exhibit apparent differences in solubility between 5% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/95% normal saline co-solvent system and 5% dimethylacetamide (DMAC)/95% normal saline co-solvent system. To rationalize their differences in solubility, we also tried to perform a DFT-B3LYP study to investigate their interaction with one water molecule.

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations for M–(C10H12N2O84–) and M–(H2O)6, where M = Na+, K+, Rb+, Mg2+, Ca2+, and Sr2+, and (C10H12N2O84–) = EDTA4–, were carried out at both all-electron and pseudopotential levels. Results from these four methods were compared, and it was found that the ions bind to EDTA4– with selectivity of Mg2+ > Ca2+ > Sr2+ > Na+ > K+ > Rb+.
