Popis: | Knowledge and control of the polymorphic phase of chemical compounds are important aspects of drug development in the pharmaceutical industry. We report herein in situ and real-time Raman spectroscopic polymorphic analysis of optically trapped microcrystals in a microliter volume format. The system studied in particular was the recrystallization of carbamazepine (CBZ) in methanol. Raman spectrometry enabled noninvasive measurement of the amount of dissolved CBZ in a sample as well as polymorphic characterization, whereas exclusive recrystallization of either CBZ form I or CBZ form III from saturated solutions was achieved by specific selection of sample cell cooling profiles. Additionally, using a microcell versus a macroscopic volume gives the advantage of reaching equilibrium much faster while using little compound quantity. We demonstrate that laser Raman spectral polymorphic analysis in a microliter cell is a potentially viable screening platform for polymorphic analysis and could lead to a new high throughput method for polymorph screening. |
