Insight into Formation, Synchronized Release and Stability of Co-Amorphous Curcumin-Piperine by Integrating Experimental-Modeling Techniques. J Pharm Sci 2024; 113:1874-1884.

Abstract
Intermolecular interactions between drug and co-former are crucial in the formation, release and physical stability of co-amorphous system. However, the interactions remain difficult to investigate with only experimental tools. In this study, intermolecular interactions of co-amorphous curcumin-piperine (i.e., CUR-PIP CM) during formation, dissolution and storage were explored by integrating experimental and modeling techniques. The formed CUR-PIP CM exhibited the strong hydrogen bond interaction between the phenolic OH group of CUR and the CO group of PIP as confirmed by FTIR, ss 13C NMR and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. In comparison to crystalline CUR, crystalline PIP and their physical mixture, CUR-PIP CM performed significantly increased dissolution accompanied by the synchronized release of CUR and PIP, which arose from the greater interaction energy of H2O-CUR molecules and H2O-PIP molecules than CUR-PIP molecules, breaking the hydrogen bond between CUR and PIP molecules, and then causing a pair-wise solvation of CUR-PIP CM at the molecular level. Furthermore, the stronger intermolecular interaction between CUR and PIP was revealed by higher binding energy of CUR-PIP molecules, which contributed to the excellent physical stability of CUR-PIP CM over amorphous CUR or PIP. The study provides a unique insight into the formation, release and stability of co-amorphous system from MD perspective. Meanwhile, this integrated technique can be used as a practical methodology for the future design of co-amorphous formulations.

Abstract
In this work, the pharmaceutical cocrystals xanthotoxin-para-aminobenzoic acid (XT-PABA) and xanthotoxin-oxalic acid (XT-OA) were systematically investigated in the gas and water phases by using the quantum chemical approach. The weak intermolecular interactions have been estimated and the O1…H4 (O1…H5) intermolecular hydrogen bond (IHB) with moderate intensity and partial covalent natures was confirmed based on the computed structural parameters, topology analysis, and reduced density gradient (RDG) isosurfaces. The electrophilic and nucleophilic reactivities of different positions associated with intermolecular interactions in XT, PABA, and OA were predicted by plotting the molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) diagrams. The calculated natural bond orbital (NBO) population analysis has quantitatively unveiled the intrinsic reason for the variations in weak intermolecular interactions within XT-PABA and XT-OA cocrystals, from the gas phase to the water phase. Besides, the frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), Fukui function, and various global reactivity descriptors were computed to measure the chemical reactivity of all the investigated molecular systems. The XT-PABA and XT-OA cocrystals explored in this work could be regarded as valuable exemplar systems to design and synthesize the high-efficiency pharmaceutical cocrystals in the experiment.

Abstract
Salts and cocrystals are the two important solid forms when a carboxylic acid crystallizes with an aminopyrimidine base such that the extent of proton transfer distinguishes between them. The ΔpKa value (pKa(base) − pKa(acid)) predicts whether the proton transfer will occur or not. However, the ΔpKa range, 0 < ΔpKa < 3, is elusive where the formation of cocrystal or salt cannot be predicted. The current study has been done to obtain a generalization in this elusive range with the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). Based on the generalization, a novel salt (FTCA)−(2-AP)+ of furantetracarboxylic acid (FTCA) with 2-aminopyrimidine (2-AP) is obtained. The structural confirmation was done by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed at the IEF-PCM-B3LYP-D3/6-311G(d,p) level to optimize the geometrical coordinates of salt for frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) and molecular electrostatic potential (MESP). The geometrical parameters of most of the atoms of the optimized salt structure were comparable with SCXRD data. Additionally, results of other computational methods such as ab initio (Hartree–Fock; HF and second-order-Møller–Plesset perturbation; MP2) and semi-empirical were also compared with experimental results of the salt. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM), reduced density gradient (RDG), and natural bond orbital (NBO) analyses were done to calculate the strength and nature of non-covalent interactions present in the salt. Furthermore, Hirshfeld surface analysis, interaction energy calculations, and total energy frameworks were performed for qualitative and quantitative estimations of strong and weak intermolecular interactions. Generalization in the elusive ΔpKa range, experimental and computational studies of furan tetracarboxylate-2-aminopyrimidinium salt.![]()

Abstract
Cocrystallization of specific active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in the solid-state phase is becoming a feasible way to improve their corresponding physicochemical properties and ultimate bioavailability without making and breaking any covalent bonds within them. Many recent reports deal with the characterization and analysis topics of pharmaceutical APIs-based cocrystals. In this mini-review, we will focus on the recent steady-state and time-dependent spectroscopic investigation into the cocrystallization of specific APIs based on both Raman and emerging terahertz spectroscopy in pharmaceutical fields. Distinctive spectral, structural and also kinetic information of pharmaceutical APIs-based cocrystals are obtained and discussed, which would highlight the potential of vibrational spectroscopy as an attractive technique for various drug research and development during cocrystallization of specific APIs.

Abstract
Ferulic acid and its derivatives are important natural products found throughout the plant kingdom and are of special interest due to their health benefits. 1-Feruloyl-sn-glycerol (FG) and 1,3-diferuloyl-sn-glycerol (F2G) are two common bioproducts of ferulic acid that co-occur in nature and during the biocatalytic production of feruloylated lipids. In this paper, we report a comprehensive characterization of FG and F2G using Raman and UV spectroscopies and theoretical density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-311+G** level. UV spectroscopy produced spectra for FG and F2G with similar peak shape, but difference intensities. The vibrational frequency calculations aided in the assignment of the Raman bands. The Raman analysis demonstrates that Raman spectroscopy is a rapid label free method to clearly distinguish between FG and F2G.
