The goal of this study was to use coevaporation to look into how polyether compounds like mephenesin (MEP) can be encapsulated into the host molecule α-cyclodextrin's nanohydrophobic cage. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) investigations, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and H NMR were among the spectroscopic techniques used to describe the inclusion complex. Additionally, Job's plot has been utilized to illustrate how MEP is encapsulated with α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) at a 1:1 molar ratio. The thermal stability of MEP increased after encapsulation according to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) experiments. Mephenesin fits into the cavity of α-cyclodextrin in a 1:1 ratio, as observed by molecular docking for the inclusion complex to find the most appropriate orientation. This observation is further supported by the Job plot. Furthermore, a comparison was carried out based on a cell viability study between the medication and its inclusion complex.
