IRMPD Action Spectroscopy of Alkali Metal Cation–Cytosine Complexes: Effects of Alkali Metal Cation Size on Gas Phase Conformation

The gas-phase structures of alkali metal cation-cytosine complexes generated by electrospray ionization are probed via infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) action spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. IRMPD action spectra of five alkali metal cation–cytosine complexes exhibit both similar and distinctive spectral features over the range of ~1000–1900 cm^-1. The IRMPD spectra of the Li⁺(cytosine), Na⁺(cytosine), and K⁺(cytosine) complexes are relatively simple but exhibit changes in the shape and shifts in the positions of several bands that correlate with the size of the alkali metal cation. The IRMPD spectra of the Rb⁺(cytosine) and Cs⁺(cytosine) complexes are much richer as distinctive new IR bands are observed, and the positions of several bands continue to shift in relation to the size of the metal cation. The measured IRMPD spectra are compared to linear IR spectra of stable low-energy tautomeric conformations calculated at the B3LYP/def2-TZVPPD level of theory to identify the conformations accessed in the experiments. These comparisons suggest that the evolution in the features in the IRMPD action spectra with the size of the metal cation, and the appearance of new bands for the larger metal cations, are the result of the variations in the intensities at which these complexes can be generated and the strength of the alkali metal cation-cytosine binding interaction, not the presence of multiple tautomeric conformations. Only a single tautomeric conformation is accessed for all five alkali metal cation–cytosine complexes, where the alkali metal cation binds to the O2 and N3 atoms of the canonical amino-oxo tautomer of cytosine, M⁺(C₁).

Thermal, spectroscopic, and dissolution studies of the simvastatin–acetylsalicylic acid mixtures

The objective of the present investigation was to study the effect of eutectic formation on in vitro dissolution of simvastatin (SIM) released from mixtures with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) prepared by a grinding method. SIM–ASA mixtures were characterized by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), infrared spectroscopy (IR), X-ray powder diffractometry (XRPD), and in vitro dissolution tests. IR spectroscopy and XRPD studies indicated no interaction between SIM and ASA in the solid state. The DSC investigation has revealed that SIM and ASA form a simple eutectic system containing 66.6 % w/w of SIM at the eutectic point. In vitro dissolution studies of SIM and its mixtures with ASA were carried out. The eutectic mixture shows an appreciable increase in the dissolution rate in comparison with other ratios and SIM in 0.5 % w/v sodium lauryl sulfate. The dissolution enhancement of SIM was related to the effective wetting of the drug particles with a significantly reduced size released from eutectic composition. In conclusion, dissolution of SIM can be enhanced through eutectic formation with ASA by means of simple mechanical activation (a grinding method).
