Ahmadi S, Rohani S. Overcoming the Hydrophobic Nature of Zinc Phenylacetate Through Co-Crystallization with Isonicotinamide. J Pharm Sci 2023; 112:1929-1938. [PMID: 36893962 DOI: 10.1016/j.xphs.2023.02.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023]
Abstract
Zinc phenylacetate (Zn-PA), a substitute for sodium phenylacetate as an ammonia-scavenging drug is hydrophobic, which poses problems for drug dissolution and solubility. We were able to co-crystallize the zinc phenylacetate with isonicotinamide (INAM) and produce a novel crystalline compound (Zn-PA-INAM). The single crystal of this new crystal was obtained, and its structure is reported here for the first time. Zn-PA-INAM was characterized computationally by ab initio, Hirshfeld calculations, CLP-PIXEL lattice energy calculation, and BFDH morphology analysis, and experimentally by PXRD, Sc-XRD, FTIR, DSC, and TGA analyses. Structural and vibrational analyses showed a major modification in intermolecular interaction of Zn-PA-INAM compared to Zn-PA. The dispersion-based pi-stacking in Zn-PA is replaced by coulomb-polarization effect of hydrogen bonds. As a result, Zn-PA-INAM is hydrophilic, improving the wettability and powder dissolution of the target compound in an aqueous solution. Morphology analysis revealed, unlike Zn-PA, Zn-PA-INAM has polar groups exposed on its prominent crystalline faces, reducing the hydrophobicity of the crystal. The shift in average water droplet contact angle from 128.1° (Zn-PA) to 27.1° (Zn-PA-INAM) is strong evidence of a marked decrease in hydrophobicity of the target compound. Finally, HPLC was used to obtain the dissolution profile and solubility of Zn-PA-INAM compared to Zn-PA.

Stable Fatty Acid Solvates of Dasatinib, a Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor: Prediction, Process, and Physicochemical Properties. ACS OMEGA 2022; 7:7032-7044. [PMID: 35252694 PMCID: PMC8892647 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.1c06753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Exploration of alternate solid forms for dasatinib, a potent oncogene tyrosine kinase inhibitor classified under Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) class II drugs with low water solubility and high permeability, has been performed using COSMO-RS excess enthalpy (Hex) to increase dissolution. The theoretical prediction resulted in the potential for the formation of C6-C8 fatty acid solvates with dasatinib. A crystallization process has been identified for the preparation of the predicted solvates and successfully scaled up till the 100 g level. The fatty acid solvates are completely characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy. Unique powder X-ray diffraction patterns and powder indexing of C6-C8 fatty acid solvates indicate the purity of the solid phase. The red shift in the acid carbonyl stretching frequency of C6-C8 fatty acids in FT-IR spectra and the intactness of the fatty acid proton in 1H-NMR spectra provide evidence for solvate formation. The stoichiometry of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) with solvent in solvates is measured using TGA and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Dasatinib C6-C8 fatty acid solvates were found to retain their solid form under various stress and pharmaceutical processing conditions. In addition, they exhibited improved powder dissolution over dasatinib Form H1-7 by 2.2-fold. They also showed stability at 40 °C and 75% RH for 3 months. C8 fatty acid is a USFDA GRAS listed solvent, and hence may be a viable option for drug product development.

Mechanochemical Synthesis and Physicochemical Characterization of Previously Unreported Praziquantel Solvates with 2-Pyrrolidone and Acetic Acid. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13101606. [PMID: 34683899 PMCID: PMC8540171 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13101606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 09/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Two new solvates of the widely used anthelminthic Praziquantel (PZQ) were obtained through mechanochemical screening with different liquid additives. Specifically, 2-pyrrolidone and acetic acid gave solvates with 1:1 stoichiometry (PZQ-AA and PZQ-2P, respectively). A wide-ranging characterization of the new solid forms was carried out by means of powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, FT-IR, solid-state NMR and biopharmaceutical analyses (solubility and intrinsic dissolution studies). Besides, the crystal structures of the two new solvates were solved from their Synchrotron-PXRD pattern: the solvates are isostructural, with equivalent triclinic packing. In both structures acetic acid and 2-pyrrolidone showed a strong interaction with the PZQ molecule via hydrogen bond. Even though previous studies have shown that PZQ is conformationally flexible, the same syn conformation as the PZQ Form A of the C=O groups of the piperazinone-cyclohexylcarbonyl segment is involved in these two new solid forms. In terms of biopharmaceutical properties, PZQ-AA and PZQ-2P exhibited water solubility and intrinsic dissolution rate much greater than those of anhydrous Form A.
