Commonly, a limited number of generally accepted bulking agents and lyoprotectants are used for freeze-drying; predominantly mannitol, glycine, sucrose and trehalose. The purpose of this study was to combine a theor. approach using mol. descriptors with a large scale exptl. screening to evaluate the suitability of a broad range of excipients for freeze-drying. A large selection of sugars, polyols and amino acids was characterized by modulated differential scanning calorimetry (mDSC) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) after well-plate based freeze-drying. The calculated mol. descriptors were investigated with both hierarchical cluster anal. and principal component anal. A clear clustering of the excipients according to the size-related and weight-related descriptors was observed; however other relevant descriptors could also be identified. From a practical perspective, a trend was observed with regard to a higher likelihood for amorphization and a higher glass transition temperature of the maximally freeze-concentrated solution with increasing mol. size. A translation of the mol. descriptors on pharmaceutical performance was more successful for lyoprotectants than for bulking agents. Addnl., in the course of the exptl. screening, several new potential bulking agents and lyoprotectants were identified. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (2S,3R,4S,5S,6R)-6-(Hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2,3,4,5-tetraol hydrate (cas: 14431-43-7Product Details of 14431-43-7).
(2S,3R,4S,5S,6R)-6-(Hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2,3,4,5-tetraol hydrate (cas: 14431-43-7) belongs to tetrahydropyran derivatives. Tetrahydropyrans are also used as important solvents, as chemical intermediate and as monomer for ring-opening polymerization. The most notable anticancer agent, bryostatin, and eribulin are marine macrolides having intriguing tetrahydropyran and furan motif. Product Details of 14431-43-7
