The solubility of itraconazole hydroxy isobutyltriazolone (IHI) in four commonly used binary solvent mixtures of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) + water, DMF + ethanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF) + water, and THF + ethanol was determined with gravimetric method at temperatures ranging from 283.15 to 323.15 K under atmospheric pressure. The solubility of IHI in all selected solvents increases with the increase of temperature. The maximum solubility of IHI exists in the solvent of DMF + ethanol (0.06523 mol·mol–1, x02 = 0.7, T = 323.15 K), while the minimum solubility exists in DMF + water (0.0003723 mol·mol–1, x02 = 0.3, T = 283.15 K). There is a co-solvency phenomenon in the mixed solvents of DMF+ ethanol, THF + water, and THF + ethanol. Four thermodynamic models, including the modified Apelblat model, the Yaws model, the Sun model, and the modified Jouyban–Acree model, were selected to fit the solubility data of IHI. All the RAD values are less than 0.0484, and RMSD values are not more than 0.001319. The Yaws model and the modified Apelblat model fit the solubility data of IHI better than the other two models. All the selected four models can fit the solubility data of IHI well.

1. Introduction

Itraconazole hydroxy isobutyltriazolone (chemical name: 2,4-Dihydro-4-[4-[4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl] phenyl]-2-(1-methylpropyl)-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one, empirical formula: C22H27N5O2, CAS No. 106461-41-0, MW = 393.48 g·mol–1) is a dark white powder in crystalline form. Itraconazole hydroxy isobutyltriazolone (IHI for short) is almost insoluble in water.1 The molecular structure of IHI is shown in Figure 1. IHI is an important medicine intermediate and has mainly been used as a medical intermediate of itraconazole.

Chemical structure of IHI.

Currently, there is little research on the crystallization process of IHI. Crystallization is the final step in the preparation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and plays a crucial role in the properties of product particles. It is undeniable that solubility data is required by the optimization of the crystallization process. Solubility data can guide the selection of solvent systems and crystallization methods (cooling crystallization, reaction crystallization, antisolvent crystallization, evaporation crystallization, etc.2,3). Nevertheless, there is currently no detailed reference material on the solubility of IHI in pure or binary solvent systems.

In the field of pharmaceuticals, it can be used as a drug intermediate to produce Itraconazole. The solubility of IHI in four commonly used binary solvent mixtures of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) + water, DMF + ethanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF) + water, and THF + ethanol was determined. Previous studies have discussed the selection of binary solvents, such as solvents that are easily soluble in drugs as good solvents and solvents that are slightly soluble or insoluble in drugs as antisolvents.46 The static gravimetric method was selected to measure the solubility of IHI. The temperature ranges from 283.15 to 323.15 K (interval 5.0 K). The pressure is approximately 0.1 MPa. The solubility data were fitted by different thermodynamic models. These solubility data contain important practical significance for the optimization of the crystallization process of IHI and its corresponding industrial production.

Measuring the solubility of drugs in different solvents and temperatures not only helps to select appropriate solvents and temperatures for drug purification but also optimizes the crystallization process and improves the product quality of drugs, and the determination of solubility is of great significance.7,8

2. Theoretical Models

With the aim of finding better models to correlate the solubility data of IHI in binary solvents and predicting the solubility data of IHI, different thermodynamic models were selected.911 In this investigation, four classical models, including the modified Apelblat model, the Yaws model, the Sun model, and the modified Jouyban–Acree model, were selected.

2.1. Modified Apelblat Model

The Apelblat model is a semiempirical model widely used to correlate the solubility data and temperature, which can be described as follows1215

2.1. 1

where x1 is the mole fraction of IHI, T is the absolute thermodynamic temperature, and A, B, and C are model parameters.

2.2. Yaws Model

Another semiempirical model, the Yaws model was also used to fit the solubility data. Just as the modified Apelblat model, it can also be used to correlate the solubility at different temperatures in mono solvents. On the right side of the equation, the form and meaning of the first two terms are similar to those of the expression of the modified Apelblat equation, while the third term can be helpful to improve the performance on describing some special varying tendencies of solubility data, which can be described as follows1619

2.2. 2

2.3. Sun Model

The Sun model is used to correlate the solubility data at different temperatures and different compositions of mixed solvents, which can be described as follows20

2.3. 3

where D1 to D7 are the model parameters.

2.4. Modified Jouyban–Acree Model

The Jouyban–Acree model can be defined as21,22

2.4. 4

where x1, x02, and x03 are the mole fractions of solute, good solvent, and antisolvent, respectively; T is the absolute temperature; N is the number of the solvents, which is equal to two for a binary solvent mixture; and Ji constitutes the model parameters. When combined with the modified Apelblat model, the modified Jouyban–Acree model can be obtained and expressed as follows23

2.4. 5

where A1 to A9 are the final model parameters.

2.5. Data Correlation

Relative average deviation (RAD) and root mean square deviation (RMSD) were selected to evaluate the fitting level of each model2426

Both the analysis method and mass fraction purity were claimed by suppliers.

3.2. X-ray Powder Diffraction

The residual solids of IHI in solubility measurement experiments in different solvent systems and raw materials were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). X’Pert3 Powder (PANalytical B.V., Netherlands) and Cu Kα were used radiation together. The tube voltage is 40 kV, and the current is 30 mA. Under nitrogen environment protection, the testing range is 3–50 ° (2θ), and the scanning speed is 8 °/min. All measured temperatures and pressures were 298.15 K and 0.1 MPa, respectively.

3.3. Solubility Determination

A gravimetric method was selected to measure the solubility of IHI in four binary solvents (DMF + water, DMF + ethanol, THF + water, and THF + ethanol) at temperatures ranging from 283.15 to 323.15 K at 0.1 MPa. The measurement system used here has been widely used in our previous work.5,6,21 First, each pure solvent was accurately weighed into a beaker to prepare binary solvents with different antisolvent compositions. Then, approximately 150 mL of mixed solvents were added to a 200 mL volume glass jacketed container. A rubber stopper was used to minimize the evaporation of solvent. A thermostatic water-circulating bath (CF41, JULABO, Germany) with an uncertainty of ± 0.05 K was selected to control the temperature. To mix the solute and solvent, a magnetic stirrer was used. The solutions were stirred for ten hours. The concentration was confirmed every 0.5 h to determine when solid–liquid equilibrium was reached. After that, the solution was allowed to stand for another four hours without stirring. Approximately 5 mL of the upper clear solution was sampled. A 0.45 μm pore size syringe filter (preheated to the corresponding temperature before use) was utilized to filter the solution.27 All samples were dried in a vacuum drying oven at 328.15 K for 12 hours (to constant weight even if a longer drying time was required). A balance (Model AL204, Mettler Toledo, Switzerland) was used to measure all masses with an accuracy of ± 0.0001 g. All experiments were repeated at least three times, and the mole fraction solubility (x1) of IHI in different solvent systems was calculated based on the following formula28,29

3.3. 8

where m1 represents the mass of the solute (IHI); mi represents the mass of the solvent; M1 and Mi are the corresponding relative molecular weights, respectively; and N is the amount of solvent. In a pure solvent system, n equals 2, and in a binary solvent system, it equals 3. The initial molar fraction (x02) of a good solvent (DMF or THF) in a binary solvent system is defined by the following equation

4. Results and Discussion

4.1. XRPD

The crystal form of IHI was determined by the XRPD method. The XRPD patterns of IHI in different solvents including the residual solids in DMF + water, DMF + ethanol, THF + water, and THF + ethanol in each good solvent compositions and temperatures. The representative data are shown in Figure 2 (take the residual solid under x02 = 0.6 as representative). It is obvious that there is no change in crystal form during the dissolution equilibrium process. The main peaks of the XRD patterns are 7.11, 14.84, 17.92, 18.98, 21.09, 25.14, and 28.58°. There is no difference in peak position and only a slight difference in peak intensity, which indicates that there is no crystal form transformation during the solid–liquid equilibrium process of IHI.

4.2. Solubility Data

In the pre-experiments, more than 20 kinds of pure solvents (such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, i-propanol, n-butanol, i-butanol, s-butanol, n-pentanol, i-pentanol, 2-butanone, methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, ethyl formate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, butyl acetate, amyl acetate, N,N-dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, 1,4-dioxane, etc.) were used for the solubility measurement of IHI. However, in most of the above solvents, solubility data are almost impossible to measure because IHI dissolves slightly. Thus, in this investigation, DMF and THF were selected as good solvents, while water and ethanol were selected as antisolvents.30,31 The mole fraction of good solvent was ranging from 0.3 to 1.0 with an interval of 0.1 in the four binary mixed solvents. The solubilities of IHI in binary solvents are presented in Figure 3.

Figure 3.

Figure 3

Mole fraction solubility of IHI in different binary mixed solvents: (a) DMF + water, (b) DMF + ethanol, (c) THF + water, and (d) THF + ethanol.

From Tables 25, it can be seen that the solubility of IHI in four binary solvents increases with the increase of temperature. The solubilities of IHI in DMF + water solvents increase with a rise in the mole fraction of DMF and investigated temperature, while for the mixtures of DMF+ ethanol, THF + water, and THF + ethanol, the solubility increased at first and then decreased with the increasing mass fraction of DMF or THF at a given temperature. That is to say, there is a co-solvency phenomenon in these three mixed solvents (DMF + ethanol, THF + water, and THF + ethanol). The maximum solubility occurred with the mole fraction of good solvent at x02 = 0.7 (DMF + ethanol), 0.7 (THF + water), and 0.8 (THF + ethanol) at a given temperature, respectively. The co-solvency phenomenon has important guiding significance for the selection of initial concentration in the process of industrial crystallization. At a given temperature and solvent ratio, the solubility sequence of IHI is basically consistent as DMF + ethanol ≥ THF + water ≥ DMF + water ≥ THF + ethanol. The effect of solvent polarity on solubility is not obvious here. Solubility is affected by many factors. The intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces between solvent–solvent and solute–solvent will also influence the solubility.

xexp1 is the experimental solubility of IHI in THF + water binary solvent system, and x02 denotes the initial mole fraction of DMF in the binary solvent mixture. xApelblat1, xYaws1, xSun1, and xJA1 represent the calculated solubilities using the modified Apelblat model, Yaws model, Sun model, and modified Jouyban–Acree model, respectively. The standard uncertainty of temperature is u(T) = 0.05 K, and the relative standard uncertainty of pressure is ur(P) = 0.05. The relative standard uncertainty of mole fraction solubility is ur(x1) = 0.03, and the relative standard uncertainty of the solvent composition is ur(x20) = 0.0002.

The maximum solubility of IHI exists in the solvent of DMF + ethanol (0.06523 mol·mol–1, x02 = 0.7, T = 323.15 K), while the minimum solubility exists in DMF + water (0.0003723 mol·mol–1, x02 = 0.3, T = 283.15 K). The maximum solubility value is approximately 175 times than the minimum solubility value. Except for the solvent DMF + water, the theoretical molar yield of each binary mixed solvent ranges from 58 to 84% with cooling conditions ranging from 323.15 to 283.15 K. The theoretical molar yield of the antisolvent method is 80% in all of the selected solvent systems. The solvent composition is more sensitive to solubility than temperature changes. In addition, when the cooling and antisolvent methods were combined, the theoretical molar yield can reach higher than 88%. What should be especially mentioned is that, in the solvent of DMF + water, when using the cooling method with the antisolvent method, the theoretical molar yield can reach more than 99%.

4.3. Data Correlation

Parameters, RADs, and RMSDs values of the selected model in this article are listed in Tables 69. All of the RAD values are less than 0.0484 (Sun model, DMF + water), and RMSD values are no more than 0.001319 (Sun model, THF + water). Considering the RAD values, the fitting order of the selected four thermodynamic models is Yaws ≥ modified Apelblat ≥ Sun ≥ modified Jouyban–Acree. Considering the RMSD values, the fitting order of the selected four thermodynamic models is modified Apelblat ≥ Yaws ≥ modified Jouyban–Acree ≥ Sun. The Yaws model and the modified Apelblat model fit the solubility data of IHI better than the other two models. All in all, all of the selected four models can fit the solubility data of IHI well.

5. Conclusions

The solubility of IHI in four commonly used binary solvent mixtures of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) + water, DMF + ethanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF) + water, and THF + ethanol was determined with the gravimetric method at temperatures ranging from 283.15 to 323.15 K under atmospheric pressure. The solubility of IHI in all selected solvents increases with the increase of temperature. There is a co-solvency phenomenon in the mixed solvents of DMF+ ethanol, THF + water, and THF + ethanol. The maximum solubility of IHI exists in the solvent of DMF + ethanol (0.06523 mol·mol–1, x02 = 0.7, T = 323.15 K), while the minimum solubility exists in DMF + water (0.0003723 mol·mol–1, x02 = 0.3, T = 283.15 K). Four thermodynamic models including the modified Apelblat model, the Yaws model, the Sun model, and the modified Jouyban–Acree model were selected to fit the solubility data of IHI. The Yaws model and the modified Apelblat model fit the solubility data of IHI better than the other two models. All in all, all of the selected four models can fit the solubility data of IHI well.
