Item Pharmaceutical salts of ethionamide with GRAS counter ion donors to enhance the solubility(Elsevier B.V., 2017) Nechipadappu, S.K.; Trivedi, D.R.Pharmaceutical salts of BCS class II second line anti-tuberculosis drug ethionamide (ETH) with various counter ions namely, 2-chloro-4-nitrobenzoic acid (CNB), 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,6HBA), 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,3HBA) and 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid (DNB) were synthesized by crystal engineering approach. All the synthesized salts were characterized by various spectroscopic (NMR, FT-IR,), thermal (DSC & TGA) and PXRD techniques. The crystal structure of the synthesized salts was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. All the reported salts, except ETH-2,3HBA exhibited charge assisted acid pyridine heterosynthon. In ETH-2,3HBA hydoxyl pyridine heterosynthon is observed. In ETH-CNB salt, both ionic and neutral acid pyridine heterosynthon were observed in the asymmetric unit. ETH-DNB salt consists of both partial and complete proton transfer from DNB to ETH in the asymmetric unit. All the synthesized salts were found to be non-hygroscopic at accelerated humid condition (~ 75% RH). Solubility experiment has been performed in purified water and in 0.1 N HCl (pH = 1) solution and found that the solubility of ETH-CNB salt was about eight-fold higher soluble than ETH in purified water. The solubility of synthesized salts follows the order of ETH < ETH-2,3HBA < ETH-2,6HBA < ETH-CNB in purified water. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.Item Structural and physicochemical characterization of pyridine derivative salts of anti-inflammatory drugs(Elsevier B.V., 2017) Nechipadappu, S.K.; Trivedi, D.R.Salts of common anti-inflammatory drugs mefenamic acid (MFA), tolfenamic acid (TFA) and naproxen (NPX) with various pyridine derivatives (4-amino pyridine (4AP), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) and 2-amino pyridine (2AP)) were synthesized by crystal engineering approach based on the pKa values of API's and the salt former. All the salts were characterized systematically by various spectroscopic methods including FT-IR and 1H NMR and the crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques (SCXRD). DMAP salt of NPX and 2AP salts of MFA and TFA were not obtained in the salt screening experiments. All the molecular salts exhibited 1:1 molecular stoichiometry in the asymmetric unit and except NPX-2AP salt, all the molecular salts included a water molecule in the crystal lattice. Physicochemical and structural properties between drug-drug molecular salts of MFA-4AP, TFA-4AP and NPX-4AP have been evaluated and it was found that these molecular salts were found to be stable for a time period of six months at ambient condition and further hydration of molecular salts were not observed even at accelerated humid conditions (?75% RH). It was found that 4AP salts of MFA and TFA and DMAP salts of MFA and TFA are isostructural. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.Item Salt/Cocrystal of Anti-Fibrinolytic Hemostatic Drug Tranexamic acid: Structural, DFT, and Stability Study of Salt/Cocrystal with GRAS Molecules(American Chemical Society service@acs.org, 2019) Nechipadappu, S.K.; Reddy, I.R.; Tarafder, K.; Trivedi, D.R.Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an important and essential medicine needed in a health system and is approved by the US FDA for the treatment of excessive blood loss from trauma, postpartum bleeding, surgery, tooth removal, nosebleeds, and heavy menstruation. One of the notable disadvantages of the TXA drug is that has low absorption (â35-40%) in the gastrointestinal tract, possibly due to its amphoteric nature. In the present work, nine molecular salts and two cocrystals of the TXA molecule have been synthesized by a simple water-mediated solvent evaporation method. The coformers/counterions used were salicylic acid (SAL), 3-hydroxybenzoic acid (3HBA), 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,4HBA), 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,5HBA), 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,6HBA), gallic acid (GAA), oxalic acid (TXA), tartaric acid (TTA), fumaric acid (FUM), succinic acid (SUA), and crotonic acid (CRA). The synthesized salts/cocrystals were characterized by various spectroscopic, thermal, and XRD techniques. The crystal structures of all of the molecular adducts were determined by SC-XRD techniques. In the synthesized salts, charge-assisted acid···amine heterosynthons and O-H···O hydrogen bonds between the acid group of TXA and the coformer are favored, and the salts TXA-FUM and TXA-SUA were found to be isostructural on the basis of the isostructural parameters Ï€ and Î? . In the cocrystal, molecules interacted through the acid group of the coformer with the carboxyl group of the TXA molecule. Further, these salts/cocrystals were found to be stable for a period of 6 months under ambient conditions (â25-30 °C, â60-65% RH). Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out to better understand the geometric structure of the molecules presented in our study. The interaction energies of the molecular salts and cocrystals were calculated, and they supported the reported structure of the crystalline adducts. The cocrystal formation in the case of TXA-GAA and TXA-CRA has been confirmed by a DFT calculation study, as the salt formation in these cases resulted in a higher interaction energy in comparison to the cocrystal. Consequently, these molecular salts offer promise for the development of new drug products of TXA, and a few salts, namely TXA-SAL and TXA-2,5HBA, offer the possibility of development of combination drugs. © 2018 American Chemical Society.
