Importance of partition coefficient, solubility and dissociation on pre-formu...SHANE_LOBO145
This document discusses the importance of preformulation studies, specifically focusing on partition coefficient, dissociation constant, and solubility. It defines these key terms and explains their significance in determining drug absorption and developing drug formulations. The partition coefficient indicates a drug's lipophilicity and ability to cross cell membranes. The dissociation constant and Henderson-Hasselbalch equation are used to predict drug ionization and site of absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Solubility is critical for bioavailability and influences formulation strategies to increase or decrease a drug's aqueous solubility. Understanding these physicochemical properties is essential for designing an optimal drug delivery system.
The document discusses the pH partition hypothesis, which states that the absorption of drugs across biomembranes is governed by the drug's dissociation constant (pKa), lipid solubility of the un-ionized form, and the pH of the absorption site. According to the hypothesis, only the un-ionized form of an acid or base drug can be absorbed if it is sufficiently lipid soluble. The fraction of a drug in its un-ionized form can be calculated using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation based on the drug's pKa and the pH. However, the pH partition theory is an oversimplification and does not always accurately predict drug absorption behavior.
Factors affecting drug stability include temperature, pH, buffering species, ionic strength, and dielectric constant. Temperature is an important factor because most reactions proceed faster at higher temperatures according to the Arrhenius equation. pH also affects stability, with most drugs being stable between pH 4-8, as hydrogen and hydroxide ions can catalyze degradation reactions. Buffering species like hydrogen and hydroxide ions participate in formation and breakdown of reaction intermediates. Ionic strength influences rates of reactions between ionic species, while dielectric constant affects rates of ion-dipole and ion-ion reactions. These physicochemical factors must be considered in stability testing and shelf life determination of pharmaceutical products.
1) Solubility is the maximum amount of a substance that dissolves in a solvent to form a saturated solution at a given temperature and pressure.
2) Solubility is ideally measured at 4°C and 37°C to ensure physical stability and support biopharmaceutical evaluation. Solubility below 1 mg/ml indicates poor absorption and need for preformulation studies.
3) Preformulation solubility studies focus on the drug solvent system and include determining properties like intrinsic solubility, pH solubility profiles, effects of surfactants, and temperature dependence to understand a drug's solubility and dissolution behavior.

Preformulation involves characterizing the physical and chemical properties of new drug molecules to aid in developing safe and stable dosage forms. It provides direction for choosing the dosage form, excipients, composition and process development. Key factors studied include the drug's physical characteristics like crystallinity, hygroscopicity and solubility, as well as its chemical stability when exposed to conditions like oxidation, hydrolysis and photolysis. Understanding how the drug behaves under various conditions helps ensure the dosage form maintains integrity during storage and use.
The document discusses key concepts relating to drug permeability and solubility, including the pH partition hypothesis. The pH partition hypothesis states that for optimal passive diffusion, a drug needs to be in its uncharged form at the membrane surface. The proportion of uncharged drug depends on factors like pH, solubility, and binding. Deviations from ideal pH-dependent permeability are often seen in practice. Drug absorption also depends on solubility and lipophilicity, with more lipid-soluble uncharged forms generally being better absorbed.
The document discusses the importance of preformulation studies, which involve determining the physical and chemical properties of drug substances before formulation development. Some key properties discussed include solubility, ionization constants (pKa), melting point, dissolution, particle size and shape, surface area, partition coefficient, and solid state properties. Establishing these fundamental characteristics helps optimize drug delivery and the development of stable, safe dosage forms by identifying any barriers early in development. The overall goal of preformulation is to generate useful information for formulators to develop mass-producible dosage forms with good stability and bioavailability.
The movement of molecules from one phase to another is called partitioning.
If two immiscible phases are placed adjacent to each other, the solute will distribute itself between two immiscible phases until equilibrium is attained; therefore no further transfer of solute occurs.

2. SOLUBILITY ANALYSIS
Preformulation solubility studies focus on:
Drug-solvent systems that could occur during the delivery of a
drug candidate.
E.g.: a drug for oral administration should be examined for
solubility in media having isotonic chloride ion concentration and
acidic pH.
understanding drug's solubility profile and possible solubilization
mechanisms that provides a basis for later formulation work.
Preformulation solubility studies usually include:
Determination of pka
Temp. dependence
pH solubility profile
Solubility products
Solubilization mechanisms
Rate of dissolution.
3. Analytic methods useful for solubility measurements include:
1. HPLC (reverse phase HPLC used for most drugs)
2. UV spectroscopy
3. Fluorescence spectroscopy
4. Gas chromatography.
Factors affecting solubility and dissolution experiments:
Advantages:
1- Direct analysis of aqueous
samples
2- High sensitivity
3- Specific determination of drug
conc. due to chromatographic
separation of drug from impurities or
degradation products.
pH
Temperature
Ionic strength
Buffer concentrations.
4. Equilibrium solubility determination:
1- An excess amount of drug is dispersed in a solvent that
is agitated at a constant temperature.
2-Samples are: a- withdrawn as a function of time, b-
clarified by centrifugation, c- and assayed to establish a
plateau concentration.
Problem of this method:
A- Sample may involve adsorption or incomplete removal of the excess
drug during filtration or centrifugation steps.
B- If excess drug is not a solid but an oil, sample preparation may be
even more difficult.
C- Drugs capable of ionization may require different methods of
removing excess drug, owing to altered adsorption properties.
5. Characterization of samples:
1. Filtered saturated solutions examined using a high-intensity
light beam to detect the presence of a finely dispersed oil or
solid.
2. Solutions examined conveniently with a light microscope
(particles or droplets of 1 ϻ or greater can be distinguished if
present in sufficient concentration).
Note: 1- Solubility values that are useful in a candidate's
early development are those in: D.W., 0.9% NaCl, 0.01M HCl,
0.1M HCl, and 0.1M NaOH, all at room temp. as well as at pH 7.4
buffer at 37°C.
Developing suspensions or solutions for toxicological and
pharmacological studies.
Identify candidates with a potential for bioavailability problems.
2- Drugs having limited solubility (< 1%) in the fluids of GIT often
exhibit poor or erratic absorption unless D.F. are specifically
tailored for the drug.
6. PKA DETERMINATIONS
Determination of the dissociation constant for a drug
capable of ionization within a pH range of 1 to 10 is
important?
since solubility and consequently absorption can be altered by
orders of magnitude with changing pH.
The Henderson Hasselbalch equation provides an estimate
of the ionized and un-ionized drug concentration at a
particular pH.
For acidic compounds For basic compounds:
7. For a weakly acidic drug with pKa value
greater than 3: the un-ionized form is present
within the acidic contents of the stomach, but the drug
is ionized predominately in the neutral media of the
intestine.
For basic drugs such as erythromycin and
papaverine (pKa 8 to 9): the ionized form is
predominant in both the stomach and intestine.
Important note: The un-ionized drug molecule is the
species absorbed from GIT
But: rate of dissolution, lipid solubility, common ion effects,
and metabolism in the GIT can shift or reverse predictions of
the extent and site of absorption based on pH alone.
Percent Ionized

where x = -1 if acid drug or 1 if basic drug
8.
9. A pKa value can be determined by a variety of analytic
methods:
Preferred methods for detection of spectral shifts:
1- Ultraviolet (UV) and Visible spectroscopy
2- Second method, potentiometric titration:
Buffer
Temperature
Ionic strength
Cosolvent affect.
since dilute aqueous solutions analyzed directly.
offers Max. sensitivity for compounds with pKa values (3-10) but is often
hindered by ppt. of the un-ionized form during titration since a high drug
conc. is required to obtain a significant titration curve.
10. Solving problem of ppt: Cosolvent
(methanol or dimethylsulfoxide)
incorporated to maintain sufficient
solubility for the un-ionized species,
and the pKa value is extrapolated from
titration data collected for various
cosolvent conc.
The use of cosolvent yields higher pKa
values for acids and lower values for
bases than does pure water (Increasing
the cosolvent ratio lowers the dielectric
constant of the medium. This stabilizes
the neutral species relative to the
ionized species)
For this third method, pKa
corresponds to the pH of the solution
(where the equilibrium solubility is
twice the value for the intrinsic
solubility of the un-ionized form) so
increase solubility of insoluble drugs.
Fig: Variation in apparent pKa with
methanol ratio for benzocaine, a weak
base (up) and hydrochlorothiazide, a
weak acid (down). In general, base
pKas decrease and acid pKas increase
with increasing solvent ratio.
11. PH SOLUBILITY PROFILE AND COMMON ION EFFECTS
The solubility of an acidic or basic
drug depends on:
1. pKa of the ionizing functional group
2. Intrinsic solubilities for both the
ionized and un-ionized forms.
For a basic drug, the total molar
solubility,St is equal to:
The pH at which both base and salt
species are together saturated is
defined as the pHmax:
BH+ protonated
species
B free base
12. For weak bases in the pH region where the solubility of the
protonated form is limiting, the molar solubility is:
Solubility in the pH region where the free base is limiting:
It therefore follows that the pHmax is defined as:
At a solution pH equivalent to pHmax, both the free base and salt
form can exist together in equilibrium with a saturated solution.
The pHmax is verified by sampling precipitated drug from the
equilibrated solution and confirming the presence of both drug
forms.
13. When the ionized or salt form of a drug is the solubility-
limiting species in solution, the concentration of the paired
counter ion is usually the solubility determining factor.
Ex: For a hydrochloride salt of a basic amine, the equilibrium
between the solid and ionized species in solution is
approximated by the following expression:
where Ksp is the solubility product for the protonated species
and chloride counter ion, or:
If the contribution of the un-ionized species is negligible as
compared with the protonated form the total drug solubility
decreases as the chlorlde ion concentration increases. In
this case, the apparent solubility product is defined as:
Experimental determination of a solubility product should
include measurement of pH as well as assays of both drug
and counter ion concentrations.
14. Summary: Variables affecting aqueous solubility profiles for
ionizable compounds over large pH ranges with varying counter
ion concentrations for an organic amine drug:
These parameters also depend on ionic strength, temperature,
and the aq. media composition.
Note: pH solubility profiles can appear dramatically different
for compounds with similar functional groups.
Ex: The pH solubility profile for doxycycline (pKa 3.4) with a
common ion effect for an amine hydrochloride salt.
The solubility in aqueous medium with pH 2 or less
logarithmically decreased as a function of pH (which was
adjusted with hydrochloric acid) because of corresponding
increases in the chloride ion concentration.
In gastric juice, where the pH can range from 1 to 2 and the
chloride ion concentration is between 0.lM and 0.15M,
doxycycline hydrochloride dihydrate has a solubility of ~4
mg/ml, which is a factor of 7 less than its solubility in distilled
water.
15. EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE
The heat of solution, ΔHs, represents the heat released
or absorbed when a mole of solute is dissolved in a
large quantity of solvent.
Types of temp. effect on solubility:
1. Most commonly, the solution process is endothermic,
or is ΔHs positive increasing the solution
temperature increases the drug solubility.
2. For such solutes as lithium chloride and other
hydrochloride salts that are ionized when dissolved,
the process is exothermic (negative ΔHs) such that
higher temperatures suppress the solubility.
Typically, the temperature range should include 5°C,
25°C, 37°C, and 50°C.
16. For nonelectrolytes and un-
ionized forms of weak acids
and bases dissolved in water,
heats of solution are in the
range of 4 - 8 kcal/mole.
Salt forms of drugs are less
sensitive to temperature and
may have heats of solution
between -2 and 2 kcal/mole.
Note: 10° change in
temperature produces a fivefold
change in solubility.
Affect solution dosage form design
and storage conditions.
17. SOLUBILIZATION
A general means of increasing solubility is the
addition of a cosolvent to the aqueous system (For
drug candidates with either poor water solubility or
insufficient solubility for projected solution dosage forms).
Ex: The Solubility of poorly soluble nonelectrolytes
can be improved by orders of magnitude with suitable
cosolvents (ethanol, propylene glycol, and glycerin).
Mechanism: These cosolvents solubilize drug
molecules by disrupting the hydrophobic interactions
of water at the nonpolar solute/water interfaces.
Depends on the chemical structure of the drug (more
nonpolar the solute, the greater is the solubilization
achieved).
18. For hydrocortisone and
hydrocortisone 21-
heptanoate (lipophilic
ester) is solubilized to a
greater extent by
additions of propylene
glycol than by the more
polar parent compound.
Other ways of solubilizing
poorly soluble drugs:
1. Micellar solutions such
as 0.0lM Tween 20
2. Molecular complexes as
with caffeine.
19. PARTITION COEFFICIENT
A measurement of a drug's lipophilicity and an
indication of its ability to cross cell membranes is
the oil/water P.C. in systems such as octanol/water
and chloroform/water.
P.C. is defined as the ratio of un-ionized drug
distributed between the organic phases and aqueous
phases at equilibrium.
For drug delivery, the lipophilic/hydrophilic balance
has been shown to be a contributing factor for the
rate and extent of drug absorption.
20. DISSOLUTION
Dissolution of a drug particle is controlled by several
physicochemical properties including:
Dissolution equilibrium solubility data
Identify potential bioavailability problem areas.
Chemical form
Crystal habit
Particle size
Solubility
Surface area
wetting properties
21. Ex: dissolution of solvate and polymorphic forms
of a drug can have a significant impact on
bioavailability and drug delivery.
The dissolution rate of a drug substance in which
S.A. is constant during dissolution described by the
modified Noyes-Whitney eq.:
Note: 1- If S.A. of the drug is held constant and Cs >
> C
2- Constant surface area is obtained by compressing
powder into a disc of known area with a die and
punch apparatus (Problem with this method:
Transformations of the crystal form (polymorphic
transformations or desolvation) during its compression into
a pellet or during the dissolution experiment).
22. Two systems can be
used to maintain
uniform hydrodynamic
conditions (k constant):
1. The rotating disc method
or Wood's apparatus
permits the hydrodynamics of
the system to be varied in a
mathematically well-defined
manner.
2. The static disc method is
used because it is
conveniently available.
But it contains an element of
undefined turbulence, which
necessitates calibration with
standards.
23. Dissolution with drug suspensions are
complicated by:
1. changing surface area
2. changing surface crystal
morphology
3. interstitial wetting.
However, dissolution profiles with
excess drug can be used to
characterize metastable polymorphs or
solvates.
Ex in the figure: conversion of the
metastable form II to form I
(thermodynamically stable form at room
temperature) is shown to occur in an
organic solvent medium
Static pellet dissolution rates also
substantiated that form II was the
higher energy form since its
dissolution rate was significantly
greater.
24. STABILITY ANALYSIS
These studies include both solution and solid state
experiments under conditions typical for: handling, formulation,
storage, and administration of a drug candidate.
High-performance liquid chromatography has emerged as
the analytic method of choice for specificity and quantitation
Solution Stability
These studies include the effect of: (pH, ionic strength, cosolvent, light,
temperature, and oxygen).
1- Solution stability investigations experiments to confirm decay at the
extremes of pH and temp. (e.g.: 0.1 N HCI, water and 0.1 N NaOH all at
90°C).
A- These degraded samples confirm assay specificity as well as to
provide estimates for Max. rates of degradation.
B- Followed by a complete pH-rate profile to identify the pH of Max.
stability.
25. Aq. buffers are used to: produce solutions
over a wide range of pH values with
constant levels of drug, cosolvent, and
ionic strength.
2- Solution for parenteral routes of
administration: should have an initial pH-rate study at a
constant ionic strength that is compatible with physiologic
media (The ionic strength (ϻ) of an isotonic 0.9%
sodium chloride solution is 0.15).
Important note: all ionic species (even the drug
molecules) in the buffer solution must be considered
in computing ionic strength.
26. Cosolvents may be needed to achieve drug conc.
for analytic sensitivity, or to produce a defined initial
condition.
If several cosolvent levels are used
Decay rates may vary linearly with the reciprocal of
the resulting solution dielectric constant. The
apparent pH of a buffer solution also varies, owing to
the presence of cosolvent.
Application: stability solutions are prepared by:
aliquots are placed in flint glass ampules, flame sealed to
prevent evaporation, and stored at constant temperatures
not exceeding the boiling point of the most volatile
cosolvent or its azeotrope.
Note: Some of ampules stored at a variety of temp. to
provide data for calculating activation energies.
27. Light stability test of solution samples
Application: protective packaging in amber and
yellow-green glass containers.
Control samples for this light test stored in cardboard
packages or wrapped in aluminum foil.
Oxidation is initially unknown, some of the solution
samples should also be subjected to further testing:
1. excessive headspace of oxygen
2. headspace of an inert gas such as helium or nitrogen
3. inorganic antioxidant such as sodium metabisulfite
4. organic antioxidant such as butylated hydroxytoluene- BHT.
Ex: Headspace composition can be controlled if the
samples are stored in vials for injection that are capped
with Teflon-coated rubber stoppers.
After penetrating the stoppers with needles, the
headspace is flooded with the desired atmosphere, and
the resulting needle holes are sealed with wax to prevent
degassing.
28. Note: An Arrhenius plot is constructed by plotting the
logarithm of the apparent decay rate constant versus the
reciprocal of the absolute temperature at which each particular
buffer solution was stored during the stability test. stability
storage temp. should be selected that incrementally (Δt ~ 10°C)
approach the anticipated "use" temp.
If this relationship is linear, one may assume a constant decay
mechanism over this temperature range and calculate an
activation energy (Ea) from the slope (-Ea/R) of the line
described by:
where C is a constant of integration and R is the gas constant.
A broken or nonlinear Arrhenius plot suggests a change in the
rate-limiting step of the reaction or a change in decay
mechanism, thus making extrapolation unreliable.
In a Solution-state oxidation reaction, for example, the
apparent decay rate constant decreases with elevation of
temperature? because the solubility of oxygen in water decreases.
29. At elevated temperatures, excipients or buffers may also
degrade to give products that are incompatible with the
drug under study.
Often, inspection of the HPLC chromatograms for decay
products confirms a change in the decay mechanism.
Shelf-life (t10 %) for a drug at "use" conditions may be
calculated from the appropriate kinetic equation, and the
decay rate constant obtained from the Arrhenius plot.
For a first-order decay process, shelf-life is computed
from:
where 𝒕𝟏𝟎 % is the time for 10% decay to occur with
apparent first-order decay constant 𝐊𝟏.
Frequently, it is useful to present the pH-rate profile as a
plot of pH versus t10% shelf-life data.
30. SOLID STATE STABILITY
Primary objectives of this investigation:
1. Identification of stable storage conditions for drug
in the solid state.
2. Identification of compatible excipients for a
formulation.
Contrary to the solution stability profile, these solid
state studies severely affected by changes in purity
and crystallinity.
Solid state reactions are much slower and more
difficult to interpret than solution state reactions?
Answer: 1- owing to a reduced no. of molecular contacts
between drug and excipient molecules.
2- occurrence of multiple phase reactions.
31. Important note on studying the solid state stability
study:
Solid state analysis of slow solid state degradation
based on: Retention of intact drug (that may fail to
quantitate clearly the compound's shelf-life)
Assay variation may equal or exceed the limited apparent
degradation, particularly at the low temp. (room-temp.
shelf-life).
Correction:
1. Analysis of the appearance of decay product(s), which
may total only 1 to 5% of the sample.
2. Additional analytic data by (TLC, fluorescence, or
UV/VIS spectroscopy) to determine precisely the
kinetics of decay product(s) appearance, and to
establish a room-temperature shelf-life for the drug
32. Assay of solid state reactions studies for the
intact compound.
1. Polymorphic changes, detected by DSC or IR.
2. Surface discoloration (due to oxidation or reaction
with excipients), surface reflectance
measurements on tri-stimulus or diffuse
reflectance equipment may be more sensitive than
HPLC assay.
Application 1: To determine the solid state stability
profile of a new compound
A. Weighed samples are placed in open screw cap vials and are
exposed directly to a variety of temp., humidities, and light
intensities for up to 12 weeks.
B. Samples consist of three 5-10 mg weighed samples at each
data point for HPLC analysis and approximately 10 to 50 mg of
sample for polymorph evaluation by DSC and IR ( ~2 mg in
KBr and -20 mg in Nujol).
33. Application 2: surface oxidation test
A. Samples stored in large (25-ml) vials for injection capped
with a Teflon-lined rubber stopper and the headspace
flooded with dry oxygen.
B. A second set of vials tested in which the atmosphere is
flooded with dry nitrogen (to confirm that the decay observed
is due solely to oxygen rather than to reduced humidity).
After a fixed exposure time (samples removed and
analyzed by multiple methods to check for chemical
stability, polymorphic changes, and discoloration).
Results of the decay process may be analyzed by:
1. Either zero-order or first-order kinetics (if the amount of decay is
less than 15 to 20%).
2. The same kinetic order should be used to analyze the data at each
temperature if possible.
3. Samples exposed to oxygen, light, and humidity may suggest the
need for a follow up stability test.
34. Important note:
1. If humidity is not a factor in drug stability
Arrhenius plot may be constructed (if linear, it
may be extrapolated to "use" conditions for
predicting a shelf-life).
2. If humidity directly affects drug stability
Conc. of water in the atmosphere may be determined
from the relative humidity and temperature by using
psychrometric charts.
35. Compatibility between bulk drug with
excipients stability studies:
1. Must be established during production of solid D.F.
2. No. of excipients may be reduced by considering
the results of the solid state and solution stability
profiles.
E.g. 1- compound with bulk instability at high humidity
formulated with anhydrous excipients.
2- pH of Max. drug stability should match the pH of an
aqueous suspension or solution of the drug and
excipient.
36. Application:
1. Excipient blended with the drug at levels with respect to a final
dosage form (e.g., 10:1 drug to disintegrant and 1:1 drug to
filler such as lactose).
2. Each blend is then divided into weighed aliquots (tested for
stability at elevated temp. (50°C) but lower than the M.P. of
ingredients.
Early inspection (ΔT≈ 2 days) of these stability samples
may allow removing or select of those samples with a
phase change and allow for re-testing at a lower temp.
Note: In addition small batches of hypothetical capsule
or tablet (2 or more) should be prepared and tested in the
same stability protocol (to check for possible
incompatibilities arising from a multicomponent
formulation).
37. Solid granulation formulations stability study:
Application: Checked by excessive wet down and drying
(in a 50°C forced air oven for 48 hours) of samples of the
unformulated bulk, excipient-drug blends and the
hypothetic formulations.
Note: These wet downs should utilize only
pharmaceutically acceptable solvents with and without
such approved binders as methylcellulose and PVP.
Besides chemical stability, the unformulated bulk
samples exposed to each granulation solvent should be
checked for:
Crystallinity, polymorph conversion, and solvate formation
severely alter dissolution or bioavailability.
