    Cocrystals of Ethenzamide: Study of Structural and Physicochemical Properties
    (American Chemical Society service@acs.org, 2016) Hariprasad, V.M.; Nechipadappu, S.K.; Trivedi, D.R.
    Pharmaceutical cocrystals of an analgesic drug ethenzamide (ETZ) with various coformers, namely, gallic acid (GA), 2-nitrobenzoic acid (2NB), 3-nitrobenzoic acid (3NB), 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid (DNB), and 3-toluic acid (3TA) were synthesized by the solvent evaporation method. All the cocrystals were characterized by various analytical techniques, and the crystal structures were determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method (SCXRD). SCXRD analysis revealed that all the synthesized cocrystals were formed through a robust supramolecular acid-amide heterosynthon except the ethenzamide/gallic acid cocrystal, where molecules interacted through O-H···O hydrogen bond involving -OH of gallic acid and oxygen of amide group of the ETZ molecule. The physicochemical properties such as stability, hygroscopicity, and solubility studies of the ETZ-GA cocrystal were evaluated. It was found that the ETZ-GA cocrystal has a higher solubility (2-fold) than that of the pure ETZ drug molecule. Hygroscopic study of the ETZ-GA cocrystal revealed that synthesized cocrystal was non-hygroscopic at ?75% RH conditions. The ETZ-GA cocrystal found to be stable for a time period of four months at ambient temperature. © 2016 American Chemical Society.

    Cocrystal of nutraceutical sinapic acid with Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients ethenzamide and 2-chloro-4-Nitrobenzoic acid: Equilibrium solubility and stability study
    (Elsevier B.V., 2018) Nechipadappu, S.K.; Trivedi, D.R.
    Sinapic acid (SNP) is a nutraceutical compound of hydroxybenzoic acid derivative which possesses anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-anxiety activity properties. In the present work, two cocrystals of SNP with two active drug ingredients such as Ethenzamide (ETZ) and 2-chloro-4-nitrobenzoic acid (CNB) are reported. Both the cocrystals were synthesized via simple solvent evaporation method and the crystal structures were characterized by Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction (SC-XRD) techniques. The cocrystals were formed via robust acid-amide heterosynthon and acid-acid homosynthon between SNP and drug molecules. Both the cocrystals were crystallized in monoclinic crystal system with P 21/c space group. The synthesized cocrystals were further characterized by DSC, PXRD, FT-IR, and 1H NMR techniques. The solubility study in purified distilled water and in 0.1 N HCl solution demonstrate that there was no increment in the solubility of drug molecules in the cocrystals in both purified water and in 0.1 N HCl solution. The synthesized cocrystal exhibited six months stability at ambient conditions (?25 °C, 60–65% RH). © 2018 Elsevier B.V.
