Research on Solubility Measurement, Solvent Effects, Preferential Solvation, and Model Correlation of Sofosbuvir Form A in Different Pure and Binary Solvents
JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL AND ENGINEERING DATA(2022)
Abstract
Solubility property is crucial to pharmaceutical development, form screening, and the production control of drugs. In this work, the equilibrium of sofosbuvir form A in different solvents was established, and the solubility was determined using isothermal saturation methods. The solvent effect, preferential solvation, and model correlation were investigated. The mole fraction solubility of sofosbuvir form A enhanced as the temperature increased. The mole fraction solubility was arranged in the following order acetone > ethanol > 1-butanol > acetonitrile > ethyl acetate > water > toluene > cyclohexane. The solvent effect results indicated that the hydrogen bond interactions were vital to dissolution of sofosbuvir form A. For mixture systems, the solubility enhanced with the increase of the acetone/ethanol composition. The preferential solvation was evaluated using a dimensionless parameter (delta) and the equilibrium constant of the solvent exchange process (K-ps). The results indicated that acetone or ethanol dissolved sofosbuvir preferentially. Besides, Apelblat, lambda h, Wilson, Jouyban-Acree, and Apelblat-Jouyban-Acree models were used to correlate the solubility data. The maximum values of relative average deviation and root mean square deviation were calculated to be 2.74% and 9.63 x 10(-4) in monosolvents and 1.38% and 3.47 x 10(-4) in mixed solvents, respectively. These models exhibited good correlation with the solubility results of sofosbuvir form A.
