Investigation of the role of electrolytes and non-electrolytes on the cloud point and dye solubilization in antidepressant drug imipramine hydrochloride solutions

Antidepressant drug imipramine hydrochloride (IMP) is amphiphilic which shows surfactant-like behavior in aqueous solutions. We have studied the effect of adding electrolytes and non-electrolytes on the micellar behavior of IMP by making cloud point (CP) and dye solubilization measurements. The CP of a 100mM IMP solution (prepared in 10mM sodium phosphate (SP) buffer) was found to decrease with increasing pH, both in the absence as well as presence of added salts. Increase in pH increased the visible absorbance of Sudan III dye solubilized in the drug micelles, implying micellar growth. Addition of increasing amounts of salts to 100mM IMP solutions (at pH 6.7) caused continuous increase in CP due to micellar growth. On the basis of these studies, the binding-effect orders of counter- and co-ions have been deduced, respectively, as: Br(-)>Cl(-)>F(-) and Li(+)相似文献   

Influence of electrolytes/non-electrolytes on the cloud point phenomenon of the aqueous promethazine hydrochloride drug solution

We have studied the clouding phenomena in promethazine hydrochloride (PMT) aqueous solutions in presence of electrolytes and non-electrolytes. PMT, a tranquillizer, shows phase separation. The cloud point (CP) decreases with increase in pH due to deprotonation of drug molecules. At constant pH, increasing salt addition causes an increase in CP, which is explained on the basis of their position in Hofmeister series and their hydrated radii. With quaternary salts CP increases due to adsorption/mixed micelle formation. Ureas decrease the CP and the behavior is explained on the basis of removal of water from the headgroup region.     

Influence of additives on the clouding phenomenon of chlorpromazine hydrochloride solutions

Herein we report the effect of various additives (viz. alcohols, cycloalcohols, amino acids, sugars, ureas) on the clouding phenomenon observed in 50mM chlorpromazine hydrochloride (CPZ) drug solutions (prepared in 10mM sodium phosphate buffer). Long chain alcohols (except octanol), cyclohexanol and allylalcohol increased the cloud point (CP) followed by a decrease with the increase in alcohol concentration but short chain alcohols affected the CP insignificantly. Effect of amino acids depended upon their nature: acidic and salts of basic amino acids increased the CP while basic amino acids depressed it; non-polar and uncharged polar amino acids caused small changes in CP. Additives of urea family decreased the CP. All sugars caused a decrease in CP, which is in consonance to their effect on the critical micellar concentration. The overall behavior is explained on the basis of additives affecting the solvent as well as micelle aggregation and/or structure.     

Study of the cloud point variation of amitriptyline hydrochloride solutions in presence of amines and amino acids

In this paper clouding phenomenon in aqueous solutions of an amphiphilic drug amitriptyline hydrochloride is reported. The effect of adding ethylamine, butylamine, hexylamine, heptylamine, octylamine, ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, tetraethylenepentramine, aniline, and benzylamine on the cloud point of solutions containing a fixed drug concentration (50 mM) was seen. All the amines decrease the cloud point by intercalating between the head groups with protonated amine groups at the micellar surface. The amino acids used (lysine, arginine, histidine) also behave similarly. The results are discussed in the light of a particular additive’s ability to remove water from the head group region of the drug micelles.     

Voltammetric determination of chlorpromazine hydrochloride

The electrochemical behaviour of chlorpromazine hydrochloride (CPZ-HCI) in sulphuric acid was investigated voltammetrically using ruthenium electrodes and it was subsequently determined by the same method. From the recorded voltammograms it was concluded that CPZ-HCI can be determined in the concentration range 2 x 10(-4)-8 x 10(-4) M (71-284. 3 micrograms ml-1). The proposed voltammetric method was applied to the determination of CPZ-HCI in tablets used for neuroleptic purposes in Turkey; the amount of effective compound was found to be within the ranges given for a pharmacopoeial procedure.     

Rayleigh light scattering in concentrated polymer solutions above the cloud point

Optical heterodyne scattering measurements are presented for concentrated solutions of unreticulated cis-polybutadiene as a function of temperature. For a heptane volume fraction ν, the second derivative of the free energy with respect to concentration varies approximately as ν^?2·9 (T-T_c), where T_c is the spinodal temperature.     

Separation of phenols from aqueous micellar solutions by cloud point extraction

The cloud point technique was used to recover phenol, 4-methylphenol, and 4-nitrophenol from aqueous solutions using oxyethylated methyl dodecanoates as nonionic surfactants. Oxyethylated methyl dodecanoates are convenient nonionic surfactants for such separations. Their cloud points can be easily modified by a change in surfactant hydrophilicity or by the addition of a second nonionic surfactant and/or an electrolyte. The use of the hydrophile lipophile balance is preferred to model the cloud point of oxyethylated methyl dodecanoates and their mixtures with other surfactants. The composition of the surfactant-rich phase depends on electrolyte type and the overheating. The phase can contain only 5-15% of water. Recovery of phenols changes in the order 4-nitrophenol >4-methylphenol > phenol and is increased in the presence of sodium chloride. The presence of salting-out electrolytes is preferred both to decrease the cloud point and to increase the efficiency of extraction.     

Effect of hydrodynamic conditions on the silver electrodeposition from water-ethanol solutions of electrolytes

Effect of hydrodynamic conditions on the silver electrodeposition from the aqueous and water-ethanol solutions of silver nitrate is studied with the purpose of the establishing the process limiting step nature. In the investigated systems of the silver electrodeposition in the potentiodynamic regime the current strength depends on the intensity of stirring and is changed due to the change in the limiting step and the surface morphology. Adding of nonaqueous solvent to the larger extent influences the electrolytic rather than diffusion stage of the process.     

Note on the theory of solutions of strong electrolytes

Summary In the general case, assumptions of an increase in the average diameter of ions and hydration numbers with temperature contradict experiment. To explain the positive deviations of experimental heats of dilution from the Debye-Hückel theory, it is necessary to consider the existence of ionic pairs in solution and changes in the solution structure with concentration.

Effect of temperature on thermodynamic characteristics of the dissociation of glycylglycine in aqueous solutions of electrolytes

Heats of reaction of glycylglycine with nitric acid and potassium hydroxide solutions are determined by two calorimetric procedures at 288.15, 298.15, 308.15 K and an ionic strength of solution of 0.25, 0.50, and 0.75 in the presence of KNO₃.

Effect of simple electrolytes on the thermodynamic properties of room temperature ionic liquids in aqueous solutions

Density, sound velocity and conductivity measurements are carried out on 1-heptyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([C₇mim][Br]) in pure water and in aqueous solutions of sodium di-hydrogen citrate, di-sodium hydrogen citrate and tri-sodium citrate over a range of temperatures at atmospheric pressure. The experimental density and sound velocity data are used to calculate the apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility as a function of temperature and concentration. The effects of temperature and charge on the anion of sodium citrate salts on the apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility of [C₇mim][Br] are studied. It was found that both of the apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility of [C₇mim][Br] in aqueous sodium citrate solutions are larger than those in pure water and increase by increasing temperature. The effects of temperature and charge on the anion of sodium citrate salts on the conductivity behavior of the investigated IL solutions are also studied.     

The polarity of solutions of electrolytes

The polarity of solutions of LiClO₄ in acetic acid has been investigated. However, polarity scales based on light absorption, e.g. the π*₁-scale, are interfered by aggregation phenomena of the used solvatochromic dyes, whereas solvatochromic fluorescent dyes give proper results.     

The temperature dependence of the micellisation of chlorpromazine hydrochloride in aqueous solution

The association characteristics of the weakly associating drug chlorpromazine hydrochloride have been examined over the temperature range 10–35 °C by means of conductimetric measurements. Critical micelle concentrations (cmc) have been determined by the application of a recently developed numerical method [Pérez-Rodríguez et al. (1998) Langmuir 14:4422] especially designed for the analysis of the association pattern in highly polydisperse systems of low aggregation number. The cmcs determined in this manner are used in combination with the mass-action model to obtain the thermodynamic parameters of the micellisation process, in particular the surface and hydrophobic contributions to the free energy. The use of exact forms of equations for the thermodynamics of micellisation applicable to systems of low aggregation number leads to values of the enthalpy of micellisation in reasonable agreement with experimentally determined values.
