“A STUDY ON SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF VARIOUS POLYMORPHIC FORMS OF ORPHENADRINE CITRATE AND CARBINOXAMINE MALEATE” Brief Resume of the Intended work: a) Need of the Study: The pharmacological activity of the drugs like Orphenadrine Citrate, Carbinoxamine Maleate etc. are depends upon their polymorphic forms. A particular polymorph shows more activity than other polymorphs of the same drug. Sometimes one of the polymorphs of the same drugs shows toxic effects. In the polymorphism, molecules arrange themselves in two or more different way in the crystal; either they may be packed differently in the crystal lattice or there may be difference in the orientation or conformation of the molecules at the lattice sites.1 Polymorphs differ in bioavailability, solubility, dissolution rate, chemical stability, physical stability, melting point, color, filterability, density and many other properties. Different polymorphs of the same molecule having a different solubility profile, so it can affect drug efficacy, bioavailability and safety.2 It is reported that Famotidine crystallized from different solvents and mixtures of solvent, was found to exhibit in three crystal forms A, B, and C, depending upon solvent system used. In which, B form is commercial form and is most stable and active compared to that of form A and C.3 Based on these findings in the literature, I have planned to synthesize and characterize various polymorphic forms of Orphenadrine Citrate and Carbinoxamine Maleate. Review of Literature The reviews of various published work related to the subject and objectives of study have revealed the following. ] Polymorphs are basically classified into two types that is enantiotropic (one polymorph can be reversibly changed into another by varying temperature and pressure, e.g. Sulfur) or monotropic (one polymorphic form unstable at all temperature and pressure, e.g. Glyceryl stearates).4 In the case of molecular solids, polymorphism arises when a given type of molecule is able to form different crystal structures and it is important to establish the crystal structures of the different polymorphs, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques have been used for this purpose. Different polymorphic forms of a given molecule can differ significantly in crystal quality and in many cases only one or a few of the polymorphs yield single crystals that are suitable for investigation by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.5 The International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Q6A guidelines provide guidance on when and how polymorphic forms should be monitored and controlled.6 Approximately half of all the drug molecules used in medicine are administered as salts, whereas polymorphism is encountered in most of the drug substances known in solid form.7 Crystallization occurs in two steps: first, crystal nuclei are formed; second, some of these nuclei grow into larger single crystals. If a system obey Ostwald’s rule of stages, metastable forms will be obtained first.2 Crystallization is a multi-step process, which includes nucleation, crystal growth and Ostwald ripening of the crystals. Nucleation and crystal growth steps together determine the nature of polymorph.8 Because, pharmaceuticals are differ in their physical and chemical properties due to existence of different polymorphs that affects bioavailability. So, this imposed stringent regulatory requirements on identification and specification of polymorphs for a particular drugs as a part of QA process.9 Under appropriate thermodynamic condition, a less stable polymorph may be converted into more stable polymorph. Rate of conversion of more stable polymorph is rapid. In these phases the less stable polymorph dissolves, while the more stable polymorph crystallizes out by in three steps.10 Objective of the Study: In view of the above facts our objective of study is to undertake: a) Synthesis and identify the polymorphic forms of Orphendrine Citrate and in Carbinoxamine Maleate. b) Characterization of these polymorphs by IR, DSC, SSNMR and XRD. b) Materials and Method: Source of Data: Data will be obtained from internet facilities, literature and related articles from libraries of Krupanidhi College of Pharmacy, R. L. Fine Chem. Pvt. Ltd., Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore & Publications and Journals of Medicinal Chemistry. Data observation and inferences will be collected on the basis of experiments to be carried out in the course of research in the R & D laboratory of R. L. Fine Chem. Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore. Synthesis: Synthesis of polymorphic modifications of Orphenadrine Citrate and Carbinoxamine Maleate employing various solvents under various conditions of temperature and using different techniques of crystallization. CH3 O O N OH CH3 CH3 . O N N O CH3 CH3 HO OH .
