Crystal structures of ketoconazole oxalate salt (1) and three co-crystals with fumaric (2), succinic (3), adipic (4) acids in 1:1 stoichiometry were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction which 1 forms dimers involved ionic interaction the imidazole ring molecules, while 2–4 display 4-member circuit networks between hydrogen-bonded coformer molecules. The co-crystal nature 1–4 was confirmed combining diffraction, ss-NMR, lattice energy calculations. Ketoconazole molecules show highly...
The 1:1 cocrystal of the antifungal agent ketoconazole with p-aminobenzoic acid was successfully crystallized and systematically characterized by a physical pharmacological point view. Crystal structure determination confirmed identity, giving full insight in its crystal packing degree disorder. Powder dissolution measurements revealed 10-fold aqueous solubility increase that induces 6.7-fold oral bioavailability improvement compared to ketoconazole. In vitro cell assays showed good toxicity...
Despite the simple molecular structure of quercetin, exact conformation hydroxyl groups and induced hydrogen bonding network in its anhydrous form could not be determined if starting from crystal models provided by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) alone. If instead a multi-technique approach that combines XRPD data analysis with information 13C 1H solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (ss-NMR) modeling is employed ambiguities largely reduced. A conformational was performed on isolated...
A solid state structural investigation of ethoxzolamide is performed on microcrystalline powder by using a multi-technique approach that combines X-ray diffraction (XRPD) data analysis based direct space methods with information from 13C(15N) solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (SS-NMR) and molecular modeling. Quantum chemical computations the crystal were employed for geometry optimization shift calculations Gauge Including Projector Augmented-Wave (GIPAW) method, whereas systematic...
Determination of the first crystalline structures antihistaminic drug promethazine hydrochloride (PTZ) by single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed a possible case intergrowth polymorphic domains that requires further experimentation for confirmation. The two PTZ are characterized high similarity both molecular conformation and packing slight variations unit cell parameters induced distinct disorder levels in aliphatic chain. These lead to small displacements molecules and, consequently,...
A new analytical method is presented for studying in a uniform way the spin dynamics NMR experiments performed under conditions of magic angle spinning. It was derived on basis formalized Floquet theory and consists transforming Fourier-state representation signal into an integral one. The proves to be well suited combination with Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation both fast slow spinning regimes. corresponding expansions can readily extended higher-order correction terms, which also allows...
Structure determination of lisinopril dihydrate is conducted using NMR crystallography methods. The analysis centred on the optimization a strategy capable providing key structural features that are inaccessible by XRPD alone even under high-resolution conditions.
A new type of polymer containing a number functional groups with orthogonal reactivity, allowing linkage to several functionalities.
ABSTRACT Photopyroelectric calorimetry, in the front (inverse) configuration (with thermally thick sensor and sample, optically opaque sensor), was applied to measure thermal effusivity of some fats water-based juice products. The information obtained via a frequency scan phase pyroelectric signal; measurements need no calibration. main advantages this above other two previously proposed schemes are: (i) it does not require use very thin foils or expensive semitransparent sensors; (ii) is...
The crystal structure solution of the title compound is determined from microcrystalline powder using a multi-technique approach that combines X-ray diffraction (XRPD) data analysis based on direct-space methods with information (13)C solid-state NMR (SSNMR), and molecular modelling GIPAW (gauge including projector augmented-wave) method. space group Pbca one molecule in asymmetric unit. proposed methodology proves very useful for unambiguously characterizing supramolecular arrangement...
