Sakhiya DC, Borkhataria CH. A review on advancement of cocrystallization approach and a brief on screening, formulation and characterization of the same. Heliyon 2024; 10:e29057. [PMID: 38601657 PMCID: PMC11004889 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The objective of this review is, to discuss recent advancements in screening methods for co-formers, evaluation cum confirmation methods and co-crystallization with examples. Co-crystals are considered as a new form of an old drug entity. Co-crystals improve the stability, hygroscopicity, solubility, dissolution, and physicochemical properties of pure drugs without altering chemical and pharmacological properties. Advancement in co-crystal formulation methods like electrospray and laser-irradiation methods are showing potential for solvent-free co-crystallization and tends to give better yield and lesser loss of materials. Screening methods are also transformed from trial and error to in-silico methods, which facilitate the selection process by reducing the time of screening and increasing the number of co-formers to be screened. Advanced evaluation methods like Raman and solid-state NMR spectroscopy provide a better understanding of crystal lattice by pinpointing the interaction between drug/co-former molecules. The same evaluation methods can also differentiate between the formation of salt and co-crystals. Co-crystals are helping open a new door in pharmaceutical industries in the field of formulation for the improvement of physicochemical properties in existing old molecules and several new molecules. With a motto of "making a good drug better", co-crystals show scope for vast research and give researchers an ocean of opportunities to make the impossible, possible.

Abstract
Understanding the nucleation pathway and achieving regulation to produce the desired crystals are mutually beneficial. The authors previously proposed a nucleation pathway of conformational polymorphs in which solvation and solute self-assembly could affect the result of the conformational rearrangement and further nucleation outcomes. Based on this, herein α,ω-alkanedi-carb-oxy-lic acids (DAn, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule, n = 2-6, 8-11) were designed as homologous additives to interfere with the self-assembly of pimelic acid (DA7) to further induce the form II compound, which differs from form I only in conformation. Interestingly, longer-chain additives (DA6-11) have a stronger form II-inducing ability than short-chain ones (DA2-4). In addition, an apparent gradient of the degree of interference with solute self-assembly, consistent with form II-inducing ability, was detected by infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The calculated molecular electrostatic potential charges also clearly indicate that additive-solute electrostatic interactions gradually increase with increasing carbon chain length of the additives, reaching a maximum value with DA6-11. This novel use of additives demonstrates a direct link between solute aggregation and conformational polymorph nucleation.
