AFFILIATIONS OF EDITORS AND CONTRIBUTORS ix
With the publication of Volume 21, the editorship has been assumed by Harry
Brittain. The focus of the chapters will remain unchanged, but the scope of the
Analytical Projiles series has expanded to include profiles of excipient materials, and
this has led to a modification of the series title. The series will henceforth be known
as the Analytical Profiles of Drug Substances and Excipients. The first excipient
profile (anhydrous lactose) appeared in Volume 20, and a profile on titanium dioxide
is included in the present volume.
The success of the series will continue to be based on the contributions of the
chapter authors, and on the quality of their work. We seek profiles of new drug
compounds as they come to markets but we also wish to profile important older
compounds that have escaped attention thus far. A complete list of available
candidates can be obtained from the editor by any prospective author. We look
forward to hearing from new and established authors and to working with the
pharmaceutical community on the Analytical Profiles of Drug Substances and
Excipients.

Acetohexamide i s l a r g e l y metabolized t o an a c t i v e
metabolite which is excreted i n t h e u r i n e (see below).
Therefore, dosage adjustment o r t o t a l avoidance i s
necessary i n c e r t a i n cases. One such case i s t h e renal

5. Metabol i sm
The metabolites of cyclandelate are mandelic acid,
phenylglyoxyl ic acid and 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexanol. These
are detectable in the urine of rabbits and humans in less
than two hours after oral administration (19,20). The
ratio o f mandelic acid to phenylglyoxylic acid increases with
increased dosage (21). Another metabolic study in humans
showed that the maximum blood levels of mandelic acid were
reached in 0.5 to 1.5 hours after oral dosing (22).
A pharmacokinetic study using tritiated cyclandelate
shows that most organ specimens took up the radioactivity
rapidly; usually reaching a maximum within one hour. The
brain, diaphragm, stomach and vein specimem showed a maximum
level at 24 hours. The levels gradually declined in a non-
linear manner over 28 days (23).

6.2 Ultraviolet SDeCtrODhOtOmetrY
Di rect determination of cycl andel ate by UV
spectrophotometry is not practical since the oxidative
degradation product, 3,3,5-trimethyl cycl ohexyl
phenylglyoxalate has about 55 times the absorptivity (25).
Spectrophotometri c determinations of cycl andel ate after
hydrolysis to mandel ic acid and oxidation to benzaldehyde
have been reported (26,27).
164 CHARLES M.SHEARER
6.3Titrimetrv
Cycl andel ate can be determined by hydrolyzing the
ester in 0.5 N NaOH under reflux for 0.5 hours, then
backtitrating the excess base with 0.1 N HC1 (28,29).
6.4 Gas ChromatoqraDhv
Gas chromatography has been used to analyze
cycl andel ate and to separate it from its degradation products
and impurities as well as from other pharmaceuticals. Table
VI gives column conditions and other necessary data for the
various methods.

the volume is made up to 250mL. 5 mL of this solution is further diluted to
100 mL with the same solvent. The solution exhibits a maximum absorption at
about 343 nm. The specific absorbanceat this maximum is about 490 (4).

7.1 Radioimmunoassay
Utilizing the RIA procedure for serum and urine and in vitro isotope
dilution procedure for feces, the absorption and elimination profile of
lisinopril was determined in 12 healthy male volunteers following oral
administration of a 10 mg capsule (2). The observed peak serum
concentration was 95 +. 55 nM with a time to peak of 7 +. 1 hours and
an AUC (0-72 hours) of 1694 +. 808 nmol liter-’ hr. The serum
concentration vs. time profile was polyphasic and the terminal half-life
was approximately 30 hours. The renal clearance was 106 2 13
ml/min wit4 urinary and fecal recovery of 29% 2 15% and 69%
23%, respectively, indicating the drug was excreted unchanged.
The half-life for the terminal phase (approximately 40 hours) was not
predictive of steady state parameters when 10 daily doses of lisinopril
were administered orally to healthy subjects. The mean effective

3.1 Spectroscopy
3.1.1 Infrared Spectrum
The infrared spectrum of naphazoline hydrochloride was obtained. A mix-
ture of the drug substance and potassium bromide was pressed into a pellet
and analyzed using a Perkin-Elmer Model 1750 FTIR. The spectrum is
shown in Figure 2. The major absorption bands for the infrared frequencies
and the corresponding assignments are listed in Table I.
3.1.2 Ultraviolet Spectra
The ultraviolet absorption spectra of naphazoline hydrochloride in absolute
ethanol, pH 3 buffer (0.05M phosphate), pH 7 buffer (0.05M phosphate)
and pH buffer (0.05M borate) were obtained using a Perkin-Elmer 559A
W/VIS spectrophotometer and 1cm cells. A representative W spectrum in
ethanol is shown in Figure 3. Samples of naphazoline hydrochloride in
these solvents were scanned from 200 to 400 nm and the absorption coeffi-
cients at wavelengths of maximum absorption were calculated (Table II).

downfield shifts respectively compared to base); zIHgH2, -5.09; aryl-
CH2, -3.63; and N-IZ-N, +3.9611.
3.1.4 Mass Spectra
Mass spectra were obtained for naphazoline hydrochloride using a Finnegan
MAT TSQ46 GC/MS/MS unit. A small amount of naphazoline hydrochlo-
ride was volatilized by heating at a linear rate of 5 mA/sec from 0 mA to
about 500 mA and ionized by either chemical ionization (CI, 0.3 Torr pres-
sure of isobutane) or by electron impact (EI) at 70 eV. The CI and EI mass
spectra were presented in Figures 6 and 7 and the interpretation presented in
Table IV.The fragmentation pattern was consistent with the chemical
structure of naphazoline hydrochloride (Figure 8).
3.2 Thermal Properties
3.2.1 Melting Range
The melting point of naphazoline hydrochloride has been reported as
257OC13 with a range of 255-60 (decomposition)5*6;the melting point for
the base has been reported as 115-120OC13.
3.2.2 Differential Thermal Analysis
A 2-mg sample of naphazoline hydrochloride drug substance was heated
from 40OC to 3000C at a linear rate of 200C/min using a Perkin-Elmer DSC-
4. One single, sharp endotherm was observed with an onset of 259OC and a
maximum of 261OC, corresponding to the melting range, after which
decomposition occurred (Figure 9).
3.2.3 Thermogravimetric Analysis
A 7-mg sample of naphazoline hydrochloride was heated using a Perkin-
Elmer System 4 ThermogravimetricAnalyzer from 4OOC to 298OC at a
linear rate of 200C/min. The drug substance exhibited a gradual weight loss
near the melting range (Figure 10).

tions. The bond lengths of the N-C-N group of the imidazoline ring were
short and indicative of double bond character. One nitrogen atom was pro-
tonated and both nitrogen atoms participated in hydrogen bonding. Each
chlorine atom was involved in two intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the
form Nl-H-Cl-H-N2, that linked the molecules into continuous parallel
chainsls.
To obtain an x-ray powder diffraction pattern, a sample of the drug sub-
-
stance was irradiated using a Philips powder diffractometer equipped with a
diffracted beam graphite monochronometer. CuKa (1 1.5405 A) radiation
was used for obtaining the powder pattern (Figure 11).All of the diffraction
lines could be assigned hkl indicies on the basis of the unit cell parameters
proving that the material was single-phase (Table V).
3.4 Partition Coefficients
Partition coefficients were determined for naphazoline hydrochloride be-
tween pH 3 buffer (0.05 M phosphate), pH 7.0 buffer (0.05 M phosphate)
and pH 9 buffer (0.05 M borate) versus l-octanol. All solutions were pre-
pared using octanol-saturated buffers and buffer-saturated octanol. Tubes
containing 100 mg of naphazoline hydrochloride, 10 ml of buffer and 10 ml
of octanol were agitated for 2 hours at 23OC and allowed to partition
overnight. Analysis (HPLC) of the aqueous phases of each mixture revealed
the following partition coefficients: pH 3.0 = 0; pH 7.0 = 0; pH 9.0 = 7.4.
3.5 Ionization Constant, pKa
The pKa of naphazoline HC1 has been reported as 10.9 at 200C4, 10.35 k
0.02 at 25OC16, 10.13 ? 0.02 at 35*C16, and 9.92 f 0.03 at 450C16.
3.6 Solubility
The solubility of naphazoline hydrochloride in various solvents at room
temperature is presented in Table VI.

after spraying with ninhydrin: naphazoline Rf= 0.54; l-naphthylacetyl-
ethylenediamine Rf 0,6330. A similar method has been described in the
European Pharmacopoeia for 1-naphthylacetylethylenediaminein napha-
zoline nitrate35.

1-Naphthylacetylethylenediaminehas been quantitated in the presence of
naphazoline and 1-naphthylacetic acid using column chromatography fol-
lowed by W assay33934. A modem HPLC procedure has been developed
for the analysis of 1-naphthylacetylethylenediaminein the presence of nap-
hazoline by HPLC using a 5 pm cyano column (4.6 X 150 mm), a mobile
phase of 0.025 M Na2HPO4 buffer (pH 7,4)-acetonitrile (35:65, v/v), a
flow rate of 2.0 mL,/min and W detection at 270 nm30. Retention times
were: naphazoline, 6.3 min; 1-naphthylacetylethylenediamine,3.1 min
(Figure 13).

PERGOLIDEMESYLATE 377
1. DESCRIPTION
1.3 History
Permax (pergolide mesylate) is a dopamine receptor agonist at both DI
and D2 receptor sites.' Permax is indicated as adjunctive treatment to
levodopalcarbidopa in the management of signs and symptoms of Parkinson's
disease. Administration of Permax should be initiated with a 0.05 mg/day
dosage for the first 2 days. The dosage should then be gradually increased by
0.1 or 0.15 muday every third day over the next 12 days of therapy. The
dosage may then be increased by 0.25mg/day every third day until an
optimum therapeutic dosage is achieved. Permax is usually administered in
divided doses three times per day. During dosage titration, the dosage of
concurrent I-dopalcarbidopa may be cautiously decreased. 2

3. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
The NMR data shows the molecule contains a methyl with carbon and
proton shifts at 10.78 and 0.93 ppm, respectively. The COSY experiment
identifies the coupling of these methyl protons to a methylene site, with 13C
and 1H chemical shifts at 15.53 and 1.68 ppm, which in turn is coupled to
another methylene site. The 13C and 1H shifts of this last site (53.83 and
3.36 ppm) indicate this methylene is attached to a heteroatom. Correlation
experiments c o n f m the coupling to an NH+ site, and the IR absorption band
at 2556 cm-1 is indicative of MI+,allowing us to propose substructure 3.

3.13 Solubility
The solubility properties of pergolide mesylate are listed in Table VI.
The measurement was performed by adding an excess amount of sample to a
solvent, shaking for thirty seconds at five-minute intervals for a total of thirty
minutes, filtering the saturated solution, and determining the concentration of the
drug in the filtered solution with a UVNIS spectrophotometer. (For dehydrated
ethanol, ether, dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, dichloromethane, acetone, and
chloroform, the filtered solutions were evaporated to dryness and reconstituted
in methanol).

4. METHODS
4.1 Identity
The identity of pergolide mesylate is determined using the specificity of
infrared spectroscopy, which differentiates it from any synthetic
intermediates, process related substances or degradation products. Pergolide
mesylate is triturated with potassium bromide and pressed into a transparent
pellet for spectroscopic analysis. The identity is confirmed by comparison to
a reference standard spectrum obtained under similar conditions.
4.4 Chromatography
4.41 Thin Layer
A TLC method can be used for the identity and purity of raw material for
pergolide mesylate. Precoated silica gel 60 F254 TLC plates are used as the
stationary phase and a tertiary solvent system consisting of
chlorofomdrnethanolfethylacetate (90:10:10) is used as the developing
solvent. Visualization is performed by viewing the plate under long
wavelength UV light (366 nm) and also by exposing the plate to iodine vapors
prior to viewing under short wavelength UV light (254 nm). This developing
solvent system will resolve known process related substances and degradation
products from pergolide mesylate.
4.42 High Performance Liquid
Conditions for quantifying pergolide mesylate have been optimized using
isocratic reversed-phase HPLC. The mobile phase consists of a 1/1 mixture
of methanol and acetonimle added to an equal part of a 2 mg/ml
octanesulfonic acid, sodium salt buffer (0.1% glacial acetic acid v/v). A
DuPont Zorbax RX column (25 cm x 4.6 mm; 5 micron particle size) is used
in conjunction with a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min. Detection is obtained with an
UV detector set at 280 nm. The sample is analyzed at a concentration of
approximately 0.065 mg/mL,. The method is stability-indicating as indicated
by its ability to separate pergolide mesylate and known degradation products.
Figure 12 shows the separation of pergolide mesylate and its primary known
degradation product, the sulfoxide.
Gradient reversed-phase HPLC methodology is used to quantify pergolide
mesylate and its potential related substances (synthetic impurities and
degradation products). A Supelco LC-18-DB column (25 cm x 4.6 mm; 5
micron particle size) is used in conjunction with a flow rate of 1 mL/min.
Detection is obtained with a UV detector set at 280 nm. The mobile phase
components are a 0.5% morpholine buffer (v/v) in water (pH 7.0 with
phosphoric acid) (A) and HPLC-grade methanol/acetonitrile/tetrahydrofuran
(1:1:1) (B). A linear gradient is initiated at 30% (B) and increased 2%/minute
for 35 minutes to a final concentration of 100% (B); then returned to 30% (B)
and re-equilibrated for 20 minutes. The sample is analyzed at a concentration
of approximately 3 rngJmL.

po 1ymorph i sm and Pseudopo1 ymorph i sm (formation of
solvates) of about 100 steroids including
prednisolone is described. Prednisolone forms
solvates with water and chloroform. These
polymorphic forms have melting points between 218 -
234 "C and 210 - 225 "C. The hydrate always
represents the most stable form. The analytical
methods of thermomicroscopy, differential scanning
calorimetry (DSC) and infrared spectrophotometry
were applied for investigation (17, 18, 19, 20, 21).

7.2 Polaroaraphv
The electoanalyt ical behaviour of predn i solone along
with other corticosteroids has been studied in
supporting electrolytes. Dependence of the peak
potentials on the structure of the steroids at
concentrations of 10-4 M in 0.03 M tetramethyl
ammonium hydroxide (TMAH) in methanol, in
Britton-Robinson buffer pH 10 (50 % V/V in methanol)
and in 0.02 M TMAH in dimethyl formamide (87 % V/V)
has been studied. In prednisolone the reduction of
C-3 and C-20 keto groups takes place. Both reduction
steps can be used for analytical purposes. The
differential pulse peak height i s linear with the
concentration down to 10-6 M. The wave pattern of
the differential pulse polarography in methanol
shows for prednisolon reduction at -1.60 V and an
additional peak at -1.76 V versus SCE. The reduction
in DMF is similar to that in methanol. The peak
potential in a methanol-buffer mixture at pH 10 for
prednisolone is given as -1.50 V . Prednisolone has
also been analysed by constant potential coulometry
(59). The differential pulse polarographic
determination of prednisolone in single component
tablets is described. After extraction o f
prednisolone with methanol from tablets it was

Regardless of the medium, MH+ peaks were found at m/z 273. Both
spectra also exhibited peaks at m/z of 545, corresponding to M2H+; at
m/z of 581, corresponding to M2H+ + HC1; and at m/z of 255,
corresponding to MH+-H20. The spectrum with glycerol as the
medium showed a base peak at m/z of 93, which suggests CH3NSOZ.
Table IV summarizes the fast atom bombardment spectral data and
suggests the structures for the fragments.
Additionally, a positive ion electron impact mass spectrum was
obtained on a Kratos MS 50 double focusing magnetic sector mass
spectrometer. The sample was introduced by means of direct insertion.
Instrument settings were: mass range, 5 1.0235-279.1606, total scans in
run, 1; sampling rate, 25; signal level threshold, 1; minimum peak
width, 7; scan rate (seddec), 10.0, number of scans averaged, 11. The
calculated M+ is at m/z 272.1195; a M+ was found at m/z 272.1196.
Furthermore, diagnostic peak (100% relative abundance) was found at
m/z 72.0817 which suggests a C ~ H ~ O fragment.

Z.T. Chowhan and Y.P. Chow (8) studied the role of the
granulation moisture content on compression properties of
granules made with selected binders. The results suggested
that at lower pressures, higher moisture containing granules
were slightly more compressible than lower moisture-
containing granules. However at higher pressures, the
reverse was true because of the water lubrication effect. At
lower moisture levels, the crushing strength of the tablets was
dependent on the binder, at higher moisture levels, binder
differences became less significant.

Foreword
Vinblastine or vincaleukoblastine is an indole alkaloid
obtained from Madagascan periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus G.
Don., (FamiZy Apocynaceae) which has been formerly designated
Vinca rosea L . Vinblastine is one of the antineoplastic
agents and is mainly used for the treatment of Hodgkin's
disease and other lymphomas as well as choriocarcinoma (1).
It is used as vinblastine sulfate which is formulated as IV
injections .

6. Pharmacokinetics
6.1 Drug Absorption
Vinblastine is poorly absorbed after oral administra-
tion (9,951.
It is readily absorbed after intravenous administra-
tion (IV) or intraperitoneal injection (IP).
6.3 Metabolism
Vinblastine is metabolized in the liver.
Metabolic reactions in rats is deacetylation to give
desacetylvinblastine which is the major metabolite of
vinblastine ( 1,9).
A significant amount of vinblastine is metabolized in
the liver to the active metabolite desacetylvinblas-
tine ( 95).

blastine ( 115).
Column condition: Glass column (lm x 3.2mm), precoated
with hexamethyldisilazane and packed with 3% OV-101 on
Gas chrom Q (80-100 mesh), with temperature programmed
from 200' to 300' at 5' min.-l
Carrier gas: Nitrogen at a flow rate of 30 ml/min.-l
Detection: F.1.D
Condition: Vinca alkaloids including vinblastine were
derivatized before application by heating for 5 minutes
at room temperature with t r i f l u o r o b i s - ( T r i m e t h y l s i l y l )

procedure, the raw ore is first digested with concentrated sulfuric acid.
The product of this step is termed the "sulfate cake", which is then
leached with water to produce a mixture of FeSO,, Fe;?(SOJ,, and
TiOSO,. At this point, scrap iron is used to reduce all Fe(IT1) to
Fe(II), whereupon the FeSO, is removed by filtration. The TiOSO,
solution is boiled to hydrolyze the solute into a suspension of hydrated
TiO,. This material is filtered, and finally calcined at 800-900°C to
produce the final product. When calcined at 8OO0C,the hydrous oxide
normally converts to the anatase phase.
The chloride process accounts for over half of the TiOz production in
the United States, and is the most economical when high-grade ores are
available. The sulfate process cannot use rutile as its starting material,
but is able to make use of low-quality ores (or slags remaining after
iron processing is complete) as input materials.
3. Physical Properties
Although anatase and rutile are both tetragonal, they are not
isomorphous. Anatase is usually obtained in near-regular octahedra,
which has given it the alternate name of octahedrite. Rutile is found as
slender prismatic crystals, which often grow as twins.

The surface area of the three titanium dioxide lots was determined using
a five-point B.E.T. analysis procedure, and the results of this study are
found in Table V. The three materials exhibit fairly high surface areas
(approximately 10 m2/g), and were found to be mutually equivalent.

Titanium dioxide is not hygroscopic, and does not form true hydrate
phases. It is possible to prepare hydrated titanium oxide materials
through the addition of alkali-metal hydroxides to a solution of a Ti(I1)
or Ti(II1) salt. The resulting titanium hydroxide precipitate is extremely
unstable, is a powerful reducing agent, and rapidly converts to a
hydrated oxide material [4].

4. Methods of Analysis
The U.S.P. compendia1 requirements [ 101 for titanium dioxide are that
it cannot contain less than 99.0% and not more than 100.5% TiO,,
when calculated on a dried basis. In addition, the material may not
contain more than 0.001 % of lead, not more than 2 ppm of antimony,
and not more than 1 ppm of mercury.
acid, the color is due to a complex peroxidic anion formed from free
peroxodisulfatotitanic acid. This reaction is the one used for the
cornpendial identification test since it is not interfered with by common
metallic ions,

4.4 Titrimetric Methods of Analysis
It has been demonstrated that the half-wave potential for the reduction
of Ti(1V) to Ti(I1I) is -0.81 V (against the standard calomel electrode)
in O.1M HCI [27]. The further reduction of Ti(II1) to Ti(l1) can be
observed in alkaline media, but this reaction has no useful analytical
significance. In these methods, oxalate, tartrate, or citrate buffer
systems are used as supporting electrolytes to prevent the hydrolytic
precipitation of hydrated titanium oxides. In the presence of tartrate
buffer, well defined waves are obtained only at pH values less than 2,
or between 6 and 7. The Ti(1V)-Ti(II1) couple is reversible only in
tartrate buffer at pH values less than 1.
When 0.4M citrate ion is used as the medium, the reduction is well
defined at all pH values, but the reduction potential was found to vary
with the solution pH [27]:
0.0 -0.28
3.0 -0.80
7.0 -0.95
11.5 -1.49
-
4.6 Atomic Spectroscopic Methods of Analysis
The peroxide method has proven to be the most useful for this purpose,
owing to the high acidity of the medium in which the reaction is
conducted. Interferences are observed only in the presence of V, Mo,
or F, but these species are not normally present in U.S.P. grade
titanium dioxide. In the spectrophotometric assay method, the
absorption maximum at 410 nm is used to determine the titanium
concentration after the oxide is dissolved [39]. The spectrophotometric
endpoint of the peroxide method has been combined with flow injection
analysis techniques to yield an automated procedure “1.
The yellow colors developed by titanium salts with tiron [15] and
sulfosalicylic acid [16,42] have also been used to develop quantitative
spectrophotometricassay methods. Other useful reagents include
tichromin and dibromotichromin [43], chromotropic acid [MI,
chlorophosphonazo I [45], and diantipyrylmethane [46]. The
diantipyrylmethane reagent has also been used to measure Ti salts after
these have been stripped off a silica gel column [47].
