Problems solved by technology

[0006] Likewise, crystals of known needle-like shape are undesirable because, for example, filtration of suspensions of such needle-like crystals is known to be difficult, and loose materials containing such needle-like crystals are difficult to weigh, process and Can be prone to jamming or bridging in transport units

specific Embodiment

[0072] The following examples further illustrate the invention but, of course, should not be construed as in any way limiting its scope.

[0073] General Experimental Conditions

[0074] Particle size distribution method:

[0075] The particle size of nepafenac was measured using a Malvern Mastersizer S particle size analyzer with MS1 - small volume sample dispersion unit stirred cell. A 300RF mm lens and a 2.4mm beam length were used. Samples for analysis were prepared by wetting a weighed amount of nepafenac (approximately 50 mg) with 0.5 mL of 1% Igepal CA-630 in deionized water and dispersing in 20 mL of deionized water. After 1 min of sonication, the suspension was delivered dropwise into a previously backgrounded and corrected measurement chamber filled with dispersant (deionized water) until obscuration reached the desired level. A cubic volume distribution is obtained. After the measurement is complete, the sample chamber is emptied and cleaned, refilled with suspe...

Embodiment 1

[0099] Nepafenac obtained in Examples 1-4 showed plate-shaped crystals ( FIG. 4 ). When these crystals were treated with metallic materials, a reduced charge rate was observed compared to needle-like crystals. Aspect ratio: 3.04 (Example 1).

Embodiment 5

[0106] Example 5: Preparation of 2-amino-3-benzoylphenylacetamide (i.e., nepafenac) crystals in the form of flakes

[0107] 310 g of nepafenac were dissolved in 7.5 L of a 2-propanol:water mixture 90:10 at reflux temperature with mechanical stirring. The solution was cooled to 20°C and stirred at this temperature. The solid was filtered and dried under vacuum at 60 °C until constant weight.

[0108] The obtained nepafenac showed plate-shaped crystals (Fig. 5). When these crystals were treated with metallic materials, a reduced charge rate was observed compared to needle-like crystals.

Abstract

The invention relates to 2-amino-3-benzoylbenzeneacetamide, i.e. nepafenac, crystals having reduced chargeability, to processes for the preparation thereof, and to the use thereof for preparing pharmaceutical formulations.

Description

Background of the invention [0001] Nepafenac (Compound I) is the internationally accepted name of 2-amino-3-benzoylphenylacetamide and has the empirical formula C 15 h 14 N 2 o 2 , and a molecular weight of 254.28. [0002] [0003] Nepafenac is an active non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with analgesic activity. In the United States, nepafenac is known under the name Nevanac TM It is marketed as a suspension and labeled for ophthalmic use. [0004] The preparation of nepafenac and similar compounds is disclosed in US Patent No. 4,313,949. Specifically, Example 2 of US Patent No. 4,313,949 describes the synthesis of nepafenac, which was isolated as yellow needles after crystallization from isopropanol. [0005] However, it is well known that needle-shaped crystals have high electrostatic properties, which cause processability problems, ie, sticking, looseness, difficulty in filtration, etc. caused by static electricity. Also, such crystals of electrostatic nature...
