EXAMPLES
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) was performed using Avance III 400 MHz NMR spectrometer. XRPD spectrum was obtained using the following measurement conditions:
Panalytical Empyrean diffractometer with 0/20 geometry (transmition mode), equipped with a PixCell 3D detector;
DCS patterns were obtained using the following conditions: 10°C/min -> 250°C.
TGA patterns were obtained using the following conditions: 10°C/min -> 280°C. Tafamidis was prepared according to a process disclosed in W02004056315. Tafamidis meglumine salt was prepared according to Example 1 of WO2013/038351A1 application.
Example 1: Preparation of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1
1 g of Tafamidis was mixed with 50 ml of tetrahydrofurane (THF). The formed suspension was mechanically stirred and heated to 50°C. 396 mg of nicotinamide was then added to the mixture. The mixture was stirred at 50°C till dissolution of solids. The mixture was then stirred at 50°C for 20 minutes. After, the solution was left freely cool down to room temperature (20-25°C), filtered to remove any undissolved solids, and placed into a
refrigerator at temperature of 2-8 °C for 12 hours. The solid mass was filtered off to provide
Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1, in 76% yield.
XRPD pattern of obtained solid corresponds to a pattern depicted in Figure 1. DSC pattern of obtained solid is depicted in Figure 2, TGA pattern is depicted in Figure 3 and NMR pattern is depicted in Figure 5.
Example 2: Preparation of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1
1 g of Tafamidis was mixed with 50 ml of dioxane. The formed suspension was mechanically stirred and heated to 55°C. 396 mg of nicotinamide was then added to the mixture. The mixture was stirred at 55°C till dissolution of solids. The mixture was then stirred at 55°C for 20 minutes. After, the solution is left freely cool down to room temperature (20-25°C), filtered to remove any undissolved solids. The mixture is then cooled to 13°C and left at this temperature for 12 hours. The solid mass was filtered off to provide Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1, in yield 60%.
XRPD pattern of obtained solid corresponds to a pattern depicted in Figure 1. DSC pattern of obtained solid is depicted in Figure 2, TGA pattern is depicted in Figure 3 and NMR pattern is depicted in Figure 5.
Example 3: Preparation of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1
1 g of Tafamidis and 396 mg of nicotinamide was mixed with 50 ml of methyl tertbutyl ether (MTBE). The formed suspension was mechanically stirred at a temperature between 20°C and 25°C for 18 hours. The solid mass was filtered off to provide Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1, in almost quantitative yield.
XRPD pattern of obtained solid corresponds to a pattern depicted in Figure 1. DSC pattern of obtained solid is depicted in Figure 2, TGA pattern is depicted in Figure 3 and NMR pattern is depicted in Figure 5. Example 4: Comparative example 1, solubility of samples
Solubility of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1 was compared to Tafamidis and Tafamidis meglumine salt.
Sample preparations were placed into a stirring carousel at temperature +37 °C and 100 rpm and stirred. After 1 hour and 4 hours about 1 mL of each sample was taken and filtered through a 0.2 pm filter into a vial. One part of filtered sample was diluted in 1 : 1 ratio with the Solvent solution (to prevent precipitation in the autosampler) a transferred into a vial, second part of filtered sample was directly transferred into a vial. Both samples were measured by HPLC method. Because of no difference between results of diluted sample and directly measured sample, solubility results are given as average of these two measurements.
It can be concluded that solubility of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct is higher than solubility of Tafamidis free acid and comparable to solubility of Tafamidis meglumine, Form 1.
Example 5: Comparative example 1, thermal stability of samples
DSC pattern of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1 and Tafamidis meglumine salt were measured. Obtained pattern are depicted in Figures 2 and 4. It can be concluded that thermal stability of Tafamidis nicotinamide adduct, Form 1, is higher than thermal stability of Tafamidis meglumine salt.
