Title: Five solvates of a multicomponent pharmaceutical salt formed by berberine and diclofenac. Author: Sun W, Zuo L, Zhao T, Zhu Z, Shan G. Journal: Acta Crystallogr C Struct Chem; 2019 Dec 01; 75(Pt 12):1644-1651. PubMed ID: 31802754. Abstract: A multicomponent pharmaceutical salt formed by the isoquinoline alkaloid berberine (5,6-dihydro-9,10-dimethoxybenzo[g]-1,3-benzodioxolo[5,6-a]quinolizinium, BBR) and the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac {2-[2-(2,6-dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetic acid, DIC} was discovered. Five solvates of the pharmaceutical salt form were obtained by solid-form screening. These five multicomponent solvates are the dihydrate (BBR-DIC·2H2O or C20H18NO4+·C14H10Cl2NO2-·2H2O), the dichloromethane hemisolvate dihydrate (BBR-DIC·0.5CH2Cl2·2H2O or C20H18NO4+·C14H10Cl2NO2-·0.5CH2Cl2·2H2O), the ethanol monosolvate (BBR-DIC·C2H5OH or C20H18NO4+·C14H10Cl2NO2-·C2H5OH), the methanol monosolvate (BBR-DIC·CH3OH or C20H18NO4+·C14H10Cl2NO2-·CH3OH) and the methanol disolvate (BBR-DIC·2CH3OH or C20H18NO4+·C14H10Cl2NO2-·2CH3OH), and their crystal structures were determined. All five solvates of BBR-DIC (1:1 molar ratio) were crystallized from different organic solvents. Solvent molecules in a pharmaceutical salt are essential components for the formation of crystalline structures and stabilization of the crystal lattices. These solvates have strong intermolecular O...H hydrogen bonds between the DIC anions and solvent molecules. The intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions were visualized by two-dimensional fingerprint plots. All the multicomponent solvates contained intramolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds. Various π-π interactions dominate the packing structures of the solvates.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
