Popis: | The rate of disappearance of 4-carbamoyl-2'-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]-1,1'-(oxydimethylene) bis (pyridinium chloride) (HI-6) from aqueous phosphate buffers (pH 3.0-9.1) was both pH and temperature sensitive. In midrange buffers (pH 6.0-9.1, mu = 0.2 M) at 37, 25, or 4 degrees C the decomposition followed first-order kinetics consistent with hydroxide-promoted decomposition of the un-ionized drug or with hydrolysis of the ionized oxime anion to result in 4-carbamoyl-2'-hydroxy-1,1'-(oxydimethylene)bis(pyridinium) cation (intermediate 1). The subsequent conversion of intermediate 1 to 4-carboxy-2'-hydroxy-1,1'-(oxydimethylene)bis(pyridinium) cation (intermediate 2) followed higher order kinetics which were consistent with either acid- or base-promoted hydrolysis of the B-ring amide functionality. After approximately 138 days in the dark, the sum of the residual HI-6, intermediate 1, and intermediate 2 in the crude decomposition mixture accounted for 89.9 +/- 10.0% of the initial substrate. Minor byproducts included 4-carbamoyl-2'-carboxy-1,1'-(oxydimethylene)bis(pyridinium) cation, 2-pyridinealdoxime, 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, 2-hydroxypyridine, isonicotinamide, isonicotinic acid, and traces of cyanide. In addition, 2-cyanopyridine appeared to be a transient intermediate in more alkaline media. In total, this drug resembles other mono- and bis(pyridinium) aldoximes in terms of the decomposition routes in aqueous solutions at intermediate pHs. |
