Solubility and distribution phenomena

Solubility is defined in quantitative terms as the concentra­tion of solute in a saturated solution at a certain temperature, and in a qualitative way, it can be defined as the spontaneous interaction of two or more substances to form a homoge­neous molecular dispersion. Generally speaking, the solubil­ity of a compound depends on the physical and chemical properties of the solute and the solvent as well as on such factors as temperature, pressure, the pH of the solution. Of the nine possible types of mixtures, based on the three states of matter, only liquids in liquids and solids in liquids are of everyday importance to most pharmaceutical scientists.

Thermo­dynamic solubility of drugs  

The thermodynamic solubility of a drug in a solvent is the maximum amount of the most stable crystalline form that remains in solution in a given volume of the solvent at a given temperature and pressure under equilibrium conditions. The equilibrium involves a balance of the energy of three interactions against each other: (1) solvent with solvent, (2) solute with solute, and (3) solvent and solute.

 

Solubility expressions

 

The solubility of a drug may be expressed in a number of ways. The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) describes the solubility of drugs as parts of solvent required for one part solute . Solubility is also quantitatively expressed in terms of molality, molarity, and percentage. The USP describes solubility using the seven groups listed in the following  table:

Polar solvents

 

The solubility of a drug is due in large measure to the polarity of the solvent, that is, to its dipole moment. Polar solvents dis­solve ionic solutes and other polar substances. Accordingly, water mixes in all proportions with alcohol and dissolves sug­ars and other polyhydroxy compounds. The ability of the solute to form hydrogen bonds is a far more significant factor than is the polarity thus water also dissolves phenols, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, amines, and other oxygen and nitrogen containing compounds that can form hydrogen bonds with water.

 

 

A difference in acidic and basic character of the constituents in the Lewis electron donor–acceptor sense also contributes to specific interactions in solutions. The solubil­ity of a substance also depends on structural features such as the ratio of the polar to the nonpolar groups of the molecule. As the length of a nonpolar chain of an aliphatic alcohol increases, the solubility of the compound in water decreases. Straightchain monohydroxy alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and acids with more than four or five carbons cannot enter into the hydrogen–bonded structure of water and hence are only slightly soluble. When additional polar groups are present in the molecule, as found in propylene glycol, glycerin, and tartaric acid, water solubility increases greatly. Branching of the carbon chain reduces the nonpolar effect and leads to increased water solubility. Tertiary butyl alcohol is miscible in all proportion with water, whereas n-butyl alcohol dis­solves to the extent of about 8 g/100 mL of water at 20°C.
