Definitions
- the present invention relates to a drug material suitable for micronisation.
- the invention relates to a novel readily micronisable form of the 1 - hydroxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylate (hereinafter hydroxy naphthoate) salt of 4- hydroxy- ⁇ -[[[6-(4-phenylbutoxy)hexyl]amino]methyl]- 1 ,3-benzenedimethanol (hereinafter compound A) and to processes for the preparation of this novel form.
- hydroxy naphthoate 4- hydroxy- ⁇ -[[[6-(4-phenylbutoxy)hexyl]amino]methyl]- 1 ,3-benzenedimethanol
- United Kingdom Patent Specification No. 2140800A relates to phenethanolamine derivatives having a selective stimulant action at beta-2 adrenoreceptors.
- the compounds may be used inter alia in the treatment of respiratory diseases associated with reversible airways obstruction, such as asthma and chronic bronchitis.
- GB2140800A describes compound A and its physiologically acceptable salts, especially (at Example 20) its hydroxy naphthoate salt.
- Compound A and its hydroxy naphthoate salt have been found to be particularly advantageous in the treatment of such respiratory diseases.
- the present inventors have found that when the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A is prepared as described in GB2140800A, Example 20, crystals are obtained that are extremely difficult to micronise to the required panicle size range. These crystals are seen to adhere to the feed system (in the fluid energy mill) causing accumulation and ultimately blockage. This accumulation and blockage (of crystals) prevents efficient micronisation. It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel, readily micronisable form of the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A that overcomes the disadvantage (in terms of micronisation) associated with the specific crystalline form described above.
- the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A in the form of spherical accretions of microcrystals, the spherical accretions being free-flowing, friable and micronisable.
- the present inventors have surprisingly found that the presently claimed form of the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A, a form that combines a novel, spherical shape, and a free-flowing and friable nature, is readily micronisable to a material suitable for use in dosage forms that are administered by inhalation or insufflation.
- the present invention provides the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A in the form of spherical accretions of microcrystals.
- This form consists of thin crystalline plates arranged radially about a central core or void.
- the form has an open structure in which the polymorphic form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate is the same as that obtained from Example 20 of GB2140800 A.
- the form provided by the present inventors also encompasses two or more spherical accretions (of microcrystals) fused together.
- the term "spherical” refers both to sphere shaped and spherelike (i.e. spheroidal) shaped forms. Spherelike forms would include elliptical (egg shaped) and distorted elliptical (pear shaped) forms.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate must be free- flowing. This means that the form must flow freely into a powder mill, for example a fluid energy powder mill, to allow its efficient particle size reduction by micronisation on an industrial scale.
- the physical characteristics of a material that determine its flow characteristics include its bulk density, cohesivity, particle size and shape and uniformity with respect to the particle size.
- a material in order to be free flowing, will have a high bulk density, a low cohesivity, and a uniform particle size distribution.
- the individual particles within the material should also be spherical in shape. The present novel form meets these criteria.
- the present novel form exhibits a high aerated bulk density, preferably from 0.2 to 0.5gml , especially from 0.3 to 0.4gml , a low cohesivity, preferably from 0 to 20%, especially from 0 to 5%, a spherical (or near spherical) particle shape and a uniform particle size distribution, as measured by a uniformity coefficient of from 1 to 20, preferably of from 1 to 5, typically about 3.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate must be friable. This means that the form must be easily broken down to particles of a size suitable for use in a pharmaceutical dosage form to be delivered by inhalation or insufflation.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate must be micronisable. This means that the form must be easily broken down under micronising conditions, for example in a fluid-energy mill, to particles of a size suitable for use in a pharmaceutical dosage form to be delivered by inhalation or insufflation.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate preferably has a mean particle size of from 70 to 300 ⁇ m, most preferably from 100 to 200 ⁇ m, when measured by a laser diffraction method, T. Allen in Particle Size Measurement, 1981, 3rd Edition.
- the panicle size distribution (measured by sieve analysis) is within the range 10 to 2000 ⁇ m, preferably from 100 to lOOOyrn. For a discussion of sieve analysis, see the above Allen reference.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate preferably has a mean surface area of from 4 to 12m ? ⁇ g 1 , most preferably from 6 to 10m 2 g 1 , when measured by the nitrogen adsorption method of Brunnauer, Emmett and Teller
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate is a low compressibility and a relatively low angle of repose. These terms are defined and their means of measurement are described by R.L.Carr in Chemical Engineering, 1965, 163- 168.
- the present novel form has an angle of repose of from 25-50 , especially from 40-50 , and a compressibility of from 5 to 25%, especially 8 to 20%.
- a process for the micronisation of the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A comprising feeding the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A in the form of spherical accretions of microcrystals, the spherical accretions being free-flowing, friable and micronisable into a microniser, micronising the hydroxy naphthoate salt to give a micronised material and collecting the micronised material.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate is micronised until the collected material has a panicle size range that is suitable for pharmaceutical dosage forms to be delivered by inhalation or insufflation.
- a suitable particle size range for this use is from 1 to 10 ⁇ m, preferably from 1 to 5 ⁇ m.
- the present novel form of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate may be prepared by any suitable method.
- a process for the preparation of the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A in the form of spherical accretions of microcrystals comprising quenching an organic or aqueous organic solution of the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A with an organic or aqueous organic solvent having a lower temperature than the said solution, to give spherical accretions of microcrystals of the hydroxy naphthoate salt of compound A (the product) and collecting the product
- the organic or aqueous organic solution will hereinafter be described as “hot” and the organic or aqueous organic solvent having a lower temperature will hereinafter be described as “cold”, these are to be understood as relative and not absolute terms.

- Solvents suitable for use in the cold organic or cold aqueous organic solvent include lower alkyl (C j _ ) alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol and isopropanol, lower alkyl (C1 4) ethers, such as methyl t-butyl ether, and lower alkyl (C ⁇ ) esters, such as ethyl acetate.
- the organic solvent employed in the cold organic or cold aqueous organic solvent is a lower alkyl alcohol, especially methanol, ethanol or isopropanol, most especially isopropanol.
- the cold organic or the cold aqueous organic solvent may contain a single solvent or a mixture of solvents.
- the temperature of the "hot” solution and the “cold” solvent are chosen to effect a fast crystallisation of the compound A hydroxy naphthoate, such that spherical accretions of microcrystals are formed.
- the temperatures employed will depend, in large measure, on the choice of solvent or solvents.
- the temperature of the hot organic or the hot aqueous organic solution is from 30 ⁇ to 80 ⁇ C, especially from 40 to 70 ⁇ C.
- the temperature of the cold organic or the cold aqueous organic solvent is form -35 ⁇ to 15 ⁇ C, especially from -25° to 10°C.
