A portion of ED01748-006-001-00 (10 mg) was dissolved in t-butanol (0.25 mL). ED01748-009-006-00 with high viscosity was obtained by flash freezing in a dry ice/acetone bath and freeze-drying the prepared solution. According to the XRPD analysis of the material, the crystallinity of Pattern 1 was identified (
<1-4> Preparation of Amorphous Form by t-Butanol/Water
A portion of ED01748-006-001-00 (10 mg) was dissolved in t-butanol (0.2 mL) and water (0.1 mL). A viscous material mixture (ED01748-013-002-00) was provided by flash freezing in a dry ice/acetone bath and freeze-drying the prepared solution. It was confirmed that the result of XRPD analysis corresponds to Pattern 1 (

A portion of ED01748-006-001-00 (20 mg) was dissolved in dichloromethane (DCM)(2 mL), and then the solution was rapidly evaporated under vacuum, thereby obtaining a colorless viscous material. After standing overnight, the total sample was solidified (ED01748-009-004-00), and it was confirmed that the XRPD analysis result corresponds to Pattern 1 (
<1-6> DSC Experiment for Preparing Amorphous Material
To prepare and confirm an amorphous material, two types of DSC experiments (A/B) were performed on ED01748-006-001-00.
DSC A Experiment
A portion of ED01748-006-001-00 was heated in a differential scanning calorimeter at 10° C./min to 110° C., and then cooled to 30° C. at 50° C./min. The contents of a DSC pan were analyzed by 1H NMR. As a result, after melting and cooling, no degradation or migration of the sample was observed (
DSC B Experiment
A portion of ED01748-006-001-00 was heated in a differential scanning calorimeter at 10° C./min to 110° C., and then cooled to −30° C. at 10° C./min, followed by heating again to 300° C.
Finally, as the sample was heated, a glass transition temperature (Tg) was observed at 14.6° C. (median: 15.3° C.), and other thermal changes were not observed until the sample was decomposed at about 190° C. or more.
In both DSC experiments A and B, the sample was dissolved and then cooled, thereby generating an amorphous material, and there was no evidence of decomposition by NMR. Experiment B showed a low glass transition temperature (Tg onset: 14.6° C.) of the material, indicating that the stability of the amorphous material may be an issue.
<1-7> Preparation of Amorphous Form by Melting and Rapid Cooling
Each (about 10 mg) of two ED01748-006-001-00 samples was put into a vial, and then into a drying pistol which had been preheated to 110° C. for 10 minutes under ambient pressure. The molten sample was removed, followed by rapid cooling with dry ice. As a result of observation with an optical microscope, glass droplets were observed as shown in
The second sample of the cooled material was stored in a closed vial overnight and observed using an optical microscope. A very small amount of crystalline material was observed (
A polymorphic pattern of the amorphous 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-(S)-1-hydroxypropyl-(S)-2-carbamate obtained in Example 1 was confirmed using various solvents (mainly ICH Class II and III).
A portion (each 10 mg) of ED01748-006-001-00 was dispensed into a vial, and an open vial was melted in a drying pistol (preheated at 110° C.) for 10 minutes under ambient pressure. The molten sample was removed, followed by rapid cooling with dry ice. The resulting amorphous glass material was treated with one solvent selected from acetone, chloroform, methanol (MeOH), tetrahydrofuran, diisopropyl ether, ethanol (EtOH), methyl ethyl ketone, acetonitrile, 2-propanol, tert-butanol, 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME), 1-propanol, 2-butanol, water, 1,4-dioxane, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2-methoxyethanol, butyl acetate, methyl butyl ketone, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol, cumene and anisole. The sample was shaken at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours, and then solvents except t-BuOH and 1,4-dioxane were transferred to a refrigerator. The other samples were stirred overnight at room temperature.
All solid samples were analyzed using an optical microscope and XRPD. In the experiment, most of the solutions were stored in a refrigerator for 2 days, and the remaining solutions were removed with CHCl3 and anisole by evaporation at room temperature. CHCl3 provided a solid rapidly dissolved by evaporating the resulting solution before isolation, and anisole provided a solid dissolved at room temperature before isolation, thereby obtaining a solid after partial evaporation. The residual solid obtained by evaporation was analyzed using an optical microscope and XRPD.
As a result, from most of the solvents, Pattern 1 or Pattern 3 was confirmed, Pattern 4 was confirmed from diethyl ether, a mixture of Pattern 1 and Pattern 3 was confirmed from chloroform and propyl acetate, Pattern 6 was confirmed from toluene and anisole, and a mixture of Pattern 3 and Pattern 6 was confirmed from benzonitrile. It was observed that the Pattern 6 material confirmed from toluene was converted to a mixture of Pattern 6 and Pattern 3 by XRPD. The Pattern 6 material confirmed from anisole stood overnight, and then converted to a mixture of Pattern 6 and Pattern 1 by XRPD. The various XRPD diffraction patterns obtained as above are shown in

In addition, as a result of thermal analysis of ED01748-006-001-00 by DSC, it was confirmed that a small endothermic reaction started at 81° C. (peak 82° C.), and an endothermic reaction started at 89° C. (peak 90° C.) corresponding to a melting temperature (
In addition, at temperatures of about 200° C. or more, a broad peak corresponding to a mass loss observed by TGA through decomposition was shown at 229° C. TGA shows that 95% of the mass remained even at 237° C. without considerable mass loss until a temperature exceeded about 200° C. 100% of the mass was lost at 305° C. (
From the GVS experiment result, the ED01748-006-001-00 also showed that the mass was increased by 0.14% in a range of 0 to 90% relative humidity (R. H.) like the isotherm plot of
After the GVS experiment, there was no change in morphology observed from the XRPD result. When the ED01748-006-001-00 was stored under a stress condition of 40° C./75% RH or RT/97% RH, no change in morphology by XRPD was shown (
To measure the solubility of ED01748-006-001-00 Pattern 1, experiments were carried out in biological media (Fasted simulated gastric fluid (FaSSGF) and Fasted simulated intestinal fluid (FaSSIF)) at 37° C. 10 mL each of samples was dispersed into each of four vials, 1 mL each of FaSSGF and FaSSIF was added to each of the two vials and incubated in an orbital shaker for 24 hours. After incubation, all solids in each sample were dissolved, and the solubility was measured as follows.
<3-1> Competitive Slurry Experiment for Pattern 1 and Pattern 3
To investigate the relative thermodynamic stability of various crystalline form patterns at room temperature and 50° C., competitive slurry experiments were carried out.
A mixture of Pattern 1 and Pattern 3 (ED01748-028-003-00, 4×20 mg) was dispensed into vials. They were treated with 250 μL of a saturated solution of Pattern 1 (ED01748 001-00) in DIPE or heptane (50 mg of ED01748-006-001-00 was treated with DIPE or heptane and heated at 50° C., a portion was removed as needed, and the resulting product was filtered through a 0.45 μm syringe filter, thereby forming a slurry). The produced slurry was stirred at room temperature or 50° C. A small sample was periodically removed and analyzed by XRPD, followed by monitoring the progress as shown in the following table. After analysis, the solid was returned to the vial, and an additional saturated solution was added as needed to maintain the slurry. After 4 days, the purity of the material was confirmed by UPLC. In both of DIPE samples, the purity was decreased to 98%, and in a heptane sample, the purity was 98.5%.
The XRPD result of the material in this table is shown in
<3-2> Competitive Slurry Experiment for Pattern 1, Pattern 3, Pattern 6 and Pattern 11
A mixture of Pattern 1 and Pattern 3 (ED01748-028-003-00, 10 mg each) was dispensed into four vials, and Pattern 6 (ED01748-034-002-00, 5 mg) and Pattern 11 (ED01748-037 00, 5 mg) were added to respective vials. Each sample was treated with 300 μL of a filtered saturated solution of Pattern 1 (ED01748-006-001-00) prepared in DIPE or heptane. The resulting slurries were stirred at room temperature and 50° C. A small sample was periodically removed and analyzed by XRPD, followed by monitoring as described in the following table.
After analysis, the solid was returned to the vial, and a saturated solution was additionally injected as needed to maintain the slurries. After 25 days, the purity of the solid material obtained in the heptane experiment was confirmed by UPLC, and no significant decrease in purity was shown by UPLC.
At room temperature and 50° C., after 1 day, all of the competitive slurries of the mixture of Pattern 1, Pattern 3, Pattern 6 and Pattern 11 materials in DIPE were converted to a Pattern 1 material. That is, it was confirmed that Pattern 1 is more thermodynamically stable than Pattern 3, Pattern 6 and Pattern 11 in DIPE at room temperature and 50° C. under the experimental conditions. In heptane, the mixture of Pattern 1 and Pattern 11 was present at room temperature and 50° C. after standing for 25 days, but no Pattern 6 remained. From this result, it was confirmed that Pattern 1 is more thermodynamically stable than Pattern 11 and Pattern 6 (
