Item Colorimetric receptors for naked eye detection of inorganic fluoride ion in aqueous media using ICT mechanism(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012) Kigga, M.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.; Trivedi, D.R.A new series of receptors were designed and synthesized based on benzohydrazide for the colorimetric detection of fluoride ion. The receptors L1 and L2 are highly selective towards fluoride ion over other anions. These receptors are able to detect inorganic fluoride such as NaF in aqueous solutions. The presence of two carbonyl groups in the receptor molecule makes the -NH proton highly acidic and hence these receptors are capable of competing with water molecules to bind fluoride ion. The receptors L1 and L2 showed a significant colour change from colourless to yellow in aqueous solutions of NaF with a ??max of 149 nm and 147 nm respectively. The mechanism involved in the colour change was deprotonation, formation of imidic acid intermediate followed by stabilization of complex through Intramolecular Charge Transfer (ICT). This was further confirmed by 1H NMR titrations where the formation of imidic acid was observed. The receptor L1 proved itself to be potentially useful for real-life applications by detecting fluoride ion quantitatively in sea water and commercially available mouth wash. © 2012 The Royal Society of Chemistry.Item 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.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 Photophysical and electrochemical properties of organic molecules: Solvatochromic effect and DFT studies(Elsevier B.V., 2018) Mohan, M.; Pangannaya, S.; Satyanarayan, M.N.; Trivedi, D.R.A series of five Schiff base molecules M1, M2, M3, M4 and M5 have been designed and synthesized by aldol condensation reaction. Synthesized molecules have been characterized by standard spectroscopic techniques in order to confirm their structural traits. The solvatochromic behavior of molecules M1 to M5 in solvents of varying polarity were investigated by UV–Vis, fluorescence spectroscopy and supported by TD-DFT calculations. DFT studies performed in the gas phase confirmed the energy stabilized structure of the molecules M1 to M5. Structural characteristics of molecule M2 favored higher fluorescence emission with a quantum yield of 0.35 and a solid-state emission of 512 nm. Fluorescence lifetime measurement of the molecules M1 to M5 exhibited a lifetime of order 2–5 ns. Overall, molecule M2 can find its application in organic light emitting diodes as a non-dopant emitter material. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.Item 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.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.
