MODES OF THE INVENTION

[0048] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples to help in understanding the present invention. However, examples according to the present invention may be modified into a variety of different forms, and it should not be construed that the scope of the present invention is limited to the following examples. The examples of the present invention are provided to more completely explain the present invention to those of ordinary skill in the art.

Experimental Methods

[0049] 1. X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD)

[0050] XRPD patterns were detected by CuKa irradiation (30 kV, 10 mA) using a Bruker AXS D2 diffractometer. The analysis was performed using θ-θ geometry and a LynxEye detector at 5 to 42° 2θ with a step size of 0.024° 2θ at 0.1 sec/step.

[0051] The software used for data collection was DIFFRAC.SUITE, and the data was analyzed and presented using Diffrac Plus EVA v 16.0.0.0.

[0052] Samples were run at ambient conditions and prepared as flat specimens using powder received without grinding. About 1 to 2 mg of the sample was lightly pressed on a silicon wafer to obtain a flat surface.

[0053] 2. Single Crystal X-Ray Diffraction (SCXRD)

[0054] SCXRD analysis was performed by Rbar3 Ltd.

[0055] 3. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR)

[0056] A solution phase .sup.1H NMR spectrum was obtained using a 5-mm PABBO probe-installed Bruker AVIIIHD NMR spectrometer operated at 400.1326 MHz. Samples were prepared with d6-DMSO unless otherwise specified and referenced using TMS internal standards.

[0057] 4. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

[0058] DSC data was collected on a Mettler DSC 3+equipped with a 34 position auto-sampler. The instrument was calibrated for energy and temperature using certified indium. Generally, 0.5 to 3 mg of each sample was heated from 30 to 300° C. at 10° C./min in a pinhole aluminum pan. A nitrogen purge was maintained over the sample at 50 mL/min STARe v15.00 was used for instrument control and data processing.

[0059] 5. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)

[0060] TGA data were collected on a Mettler TGA 2 equipped with a 34 position auto-sampler. The instrument was calibrated for energy and temperature using certified isotherm and nickel. Generally, 0.5 to 30 mg of each sample was heated at from 30 to 400° C. at 10° C./min in a pinhole aluminum pan. A nitrogen purge was maintained over the sample at 50 mL/min. STARe v15.00 was used for instrument control and data processing.

[0061] 6. Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM)

[0062] A digital video camera-equipped Nikon DLM polarization microscope was used to capture sample images. A small amount of sample was placed on a glass slide, mounted in an immersion oil, and covered with a glass slip for individually isolating particles as much as possible. The sample was observed with appropriate magnification and partial polarization, coupled to a 2 additive color filter.

[0063] 7. Particle Size Distribution (PSD) by Laser Diffraction

[0064] PSD was measured using a Sympatec HELOS/BF particle sizer equipped with a RODOS/ASPIROS dry dispenser operating at 2.5 Bar with a sled speed of 25 mm/s. R1 0.1/0.18 μm-35 μm and R3 0.5/0.9 μm-175 μm lenses were combined and used for observation. Unless specified otherwise, a trigger condition of 1 ms 0.2% Ch27 was used.

[0065] 8. Gravimetric Vapor Sorption (GVS)

[0066] Sorption isotherms were obtained using an SMS DVS intrinsic water absorption analyzer controlled by SMS Analysis Suite software. A sample temperature was maintained at 25° C. throughout. Humidity was controlled by a mixed stream of dry and wet nitrogen with a total flow rate of 200 mL/min. The relative humidity was measured with a calibrated Rotronic probe (dynamic range: 1.0-100% RH) located near the sample. The weight change (mass relaxation) of the sample as a function of % RH was continuously monitored using a microbalance (accuracy±0.005 mg). 5 to 20 mg of the sample was stored in a prepared stainless steel mesh basket under atmospheric conditions.

[0067] 9. Measurement of Thermodynamic Solubility by UPLC

[0068] A thermodynamic solubility in water was determined by providing a suitable concentration of compound prepared by suspending a sufficient compound in water or buffer according to estimated solubilities of the medium and the compound. Quantification was done by UPLC with reference to a standard calibration curve. A solubility was calculated with QuanLynx using a peak area determined by the integration of a peak found at the same retention time as the main peak in the standard injection.

[0071] For screening of various polymorphisms of the material, first, the material was amorphized, and the resulting amorphous material was used as a material for polymorphic screening with various solvents.

[0072] <1-1> Preparation of Amorphous Form by 1,4-Dioxane

[0073] A portion of ED01748-006-001-00 (15 mg) was dissolved in 1,4-dioxane (0.1 mL). A white solid ED01748-009-001-00 was prepared by flash freezing in a dry ice/acetone bath and freeze-drying the prepared solution, and as a result of XRPD analysis, a crystalline form (Pattern 2) with a different pattern was identified (FIG. 1). In addition, as a result of reanalysis of the ED01748-006-001-00 sample after being left overnight on the XRPD disc under laboratory conditions, a crystalline form with a novel pattern (ED01748-009-005-00, Pattern 3) was identified (FIG. 2).

[0074] <1-2> Preparation of Amorphous Form by 1,4-Dioxane/Water

[0075] ED01748-006-001-00 (10 mg) was dissolved in 1,4-dioxane (0.2 mL) and water (0.1 mL).

[0076] A white solid ED01748-013-001-00 was prepared by flash freezing in a dry ice/acetone bath and freeze-drying the prepared solution. As a result of XRPD analysis of the solution, a crystalline form with the same pattern as obtained by freeze-drying in 1,4-dioxane (Pattern 2) was identified.

[0077] <1-3> Preparation of Amorphous Form by t-Butanol

[0078] 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 (FIG. 3).

[0079] <1-4> Preparation of Amorphous Form by t-Butanol/Water

[0080] 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 (FIG. 3).

[0081] <1-5> Preparation of Amorphous Form by Evaporation of DCM Solution

[0082] 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 (FIG. 4).

[0083] <1-6> DSC Experiment for Preparing Amorphous Material

[0084] To prepare and confirm an amorphous material, two types of DSC experiments (A/B) were performed on ED01748-006-001-00.

[0085] DSC A Experiment

[0086] 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 .sup.1H NMR. As a result, after melting and cooling, no degradation or migration of the sample was observed (FIG. 5).

[0087] DSC B Experiment

[0088] 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.

[0089] 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.

[0090] 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.

[0091] <1-7> Preparation of Amorphous Form by Melting and Rapid Cooling

[0092] 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 FIG. 6. The glass material from the first sample was rapidly crystallized by impacting a part that characterized it. As a result of XRPD analysis, the glass material was identified as Pattern 1 (FIG. 7). The material was not significantly decomposed as confirmed by 41 NMR or UPLC, and the sample had a UPLC purity of 98.7%.

[0093] 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 (FIG. 8, left), and after standing for 4 days, it was confirmed that the material was completely crystallized (FIG. 8, right).

Example 2 Preparation of Pattern 1 Crystalline Form of Amorphous 1-(2-Chlorophenyl)-(S)-1-Hydroxypropyl-(S)-2-Carbamate Using Solvent

[0094] 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).

[0095] 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.

[0096] 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 CHCl.sub.3 and anisole by evaporation at room temperature. CHCl.sub.3 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.

[0097] 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 FIG. 9.

[0099] The features of Pattern 1 were confirmed as follows.

TABLE-US-00003 TABLE 3 Pattern Features Pattern 1 Endothermic events of Onset 81° C. (small amount) and 89° C. (anhydrous) No mass loss in TGA upon decomposition. In polymorphic screening, can be obtained when various solvents were added to an amorphous form, and have partially improved crystallinity (ED01748-016-014-00 of MeCN, ED01748-016-010-00 of DIPE). No low temperature endothermic event.

[0100] The optical microscope images of the crystallized ED01748-006-001-00 Pattern 1 are shown in FIG. 11. In addition, the .sup.1H NMR analysis result of the ED01748-006-001-00 corresponded to the structure shown in FIG. 12. In addition, the UPLC purity was 98.6%, as determined by a UV detection chromatogram (FIG. 13).

[0101] 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 (FIG. 14).

[0102] 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. (FIG. 15).

[0103] 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 FIG. 16. This means that a mass increase is insignificant, which shows storage stability by humidity is improved (FIGS. 16 and 17).

[0104] 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 (FIG. 18). In addition, it was observed that the change in purity was 97.4% after 40° C./75% RH and 97.7% after RT/97% RH by UPLC (FIG. 19).

Experimental Example 2 Measurement of Solubility of Crystalline Form (ED01748-006-001-00) Pattern 1 of (1-(2-Chlorophenyl)-(S)-1-Hydroxypropyl-(S) Carbamate

[0105] 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.

Experimental Example 3 Confirmation of Thermodynamic Stability of Crystalline Form Pattern 1 of (1-(2-Chlorophenyl)-(S)-1-Hydroxypropyl-(S)-2-Carbamate

[0106] <3-1> Competitive Slurry Experiment for Pattern 1 and Pattern 3

[0107] To investigate the relative thermodynamic stability of various crystalline form patterns at room temperature and 50° C., competitive slurry experiments were carried out.

[0108] 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%.

[0109] The XRPD result of the material in this table is shown in FIG. 20. In DIPE and heptane, both types of competitive slurries of the mixture of Pattern 1 and Pattern 3, which are anhydrous, were converted to Pattern 1 at room temperature and 50° C., and XRPD showed that no Pattern 3 remains. In heptane, the conversion to Pattern 1 was slower than that of DIPE, which is caused by a difference in solubility of materials. From the result, it was confirmed that Pattern 1 is more thermodynamically stable than Pattern 3.

[0110] <3-2> Competitive Slurry Experiment for Pattern 1, Pattern 3, Pattern 6 and Pattern 11

[0111] 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.

[0112] 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.

[0113] 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 (FIGS. 21 and 22).
