Gliclazide is a second-generation oral sulfonylurea hypoglycemic drug with a strong effect. Its mechanism is similar to that of tolbutamide, that is, it selectively acts on pancreatic β cells, promotes insulin secretion, and increases insulin release after eating, inhibiting the production and output of glycogen in the liver, which helps prevent and treat diabetic microangiopathy. In recent years, studies have also found that gliclazide also has a strong extrapancreatic therapeutic effect, which enhances the effect of insulin on surrounding tissues.

[0040] Comparative Example 1

[0044] The eutectic structure was determined by a Bruker ApexⅡCCD X-ray diffractometer, and the XRD data were collected by a Japanese RigakuMiniFlex 600 X-ray diffractometer. The tube voltage was 40 kV, the tube current was 15 mA, and the scanning speed was 8° / min. The XRD data of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal obtained in Examples 1 to 8 were detected. The characteristic peaks of the XRD spectrum appeared at 7.11°, 13.86°, 23.92° and 25.62°, indicating that the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal was synthesized.

[0045] The schematic diagram of the structure of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal obtained in Examples 1 to 8 is as follows Figure 1 As shown, the diffraction peaks of gliclazide, piperazine and gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal are as follows Figure 2 As shown, it can be seen that the diffraction peaks of gliclazide, piperazine and gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal are obviously different, among which the diffraction peaks of gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal have obvious new peaks at 7.11°, 13.86°, 23.92° and 25.62°. Compared with gliclazide and piperazine, the peaks of gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal between 8 and 12° disappear.

[0046] The crystallographic parameter results of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Examples 1 to 8 are shown in Table 1, and the X-ray powder diffraction characterization data are shown in Table 2.

[0047] Table 1 Crystallographic parameters of gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Examples 1 to 8

[0048]

[0049] Table 2 X-ray powder diffraction characterization data of gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Examples 1 to 8

[0050]

[0051]

[0052] The DSC data of gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal are as follows Figure 3 As shown, it can be seen that the melting point of the gliclazide-piperazine eutectic is 149°C, while the melting points of gliclazide and piperazine are 163-169°C and 109-112°C, respectively, and the three are significantly different.

[0053] Infrared spectroscopic analysis of gliclazide, piperazine and gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal was performed. The data were measured by Bruker TENSORII Fourier transform infrared spectrometer with a wave number range of 4000-400 cm -1 ,Depend on Figures 4 to 6 It can be seen that there are differences between the cocrystal and the API. The gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal has a C=O double bond stretching vibration region (1815-1600 cm -1 ) is different, and the C=O double bond stretching vibration frequency of gliclazide is 1710.31cm -1 , while the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal showed a shift to 1596.91 cm -1 , combined with crystal structure analysis, it can be seen that the difference in the above positions is due to the NH…O hydrogen bond interaction formed between gliclazide and piperazine in the cocrystal, which causes the infrared absorption spectrum of this area to change.

[0054] The solubility of gliclazide, the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Examples 1 to 8, and the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to 2 in water and ethanol was tested. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0055] Table 3 Solubility data of gliclazide and gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal

[0056]

[0057]

[0058] Gliclazide is a poorly soluble drug, and has the disadvantage of low solubility during the purification process, which leads to the problem of large solvent consumption during the purification process, and for gliclazide, it is difficult to significantly improve its solubility by simply increasing the temperature. As can be seen from the results in Table 3, the solubility of gliclazide in water is very small and cannot be measured, but the solubility after forming a cocrystal with piperazine can be increased to about 0.24g, which greatly improves the solubility of gliclazide in water. The solubility of gliclazide in ethanol is increased by more than 97% after forming a cocrystal with piperazine, so the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal has higher water solubility and alcohol solubility than gliclazide, which provides a broad prospect for the application of gliclazide.

[0059] Compared with the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained from comparative documents 1 to 2 and the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained from Examples 5 to 8, the water solubility and alcohol solubility data are both reduced. This is because the addition of ethanol during the grinding process of gliclazide and piperazine can promote the formation of NH...O hydrogen bonds between gliclazide and piperazine in the cocrystal, thereby making the water solubility and alcohol solubility data of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal higher.

[0060] 10 g of each of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Examples 1 to 4 were mixed evenly to obtain sample 1, and thermal stability (5 g) and photostability tests (5 g) were performed; 10 g of each of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Examples 5 to 8 were mixed evenly to obtain sample 2, and thermal stability (5 g) and photostability tests (5 g) were performed. The gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to 2 were also subjected to the same test; thermal stability data, test conditions: 60 ° C, 40% humidity, accelerated experiment 10 days after the test purity; photostability data, test conditions: 25 ° C, cold white fluorescent lamp, accelerated experiment 10 days after the test purity, purity detection according to the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, General 0512. Determine the content of related substances, 100% minus the content of related substances to obtain the purity value, the results are shown in Table 4.

[0061] Table 4 Light stability and thermal stability test results

[0062]

[0063] For chemical raw materials, it is generally required that the maximum single impurity content does not exceed 1.0%, the total impurity content does not exceed 1.5 or 2.0%, and the single impurity less than 0.1% can be ignored, so for trace impurities, the content of 1.0% is relatively large. Especially for accelerated experiments, after passing through harsh accelerated experimental conditions, the impurity content tends to increase more. It can be seen from the results of Table 4 that the thermal stability and photostability of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal obtained by the solvent volatilization method and the grinding method of the present invention are more excellent than the data of the comparative gliclazide crystal, and the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal of the present invention has better thermal stability and photostability.

[0064] It can be seen from the above experiments that the same gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal can be obtained by both the solvent evaporation method and the grinding method. The dissolution data of the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal and the gliclazide crystal obtained by the solvent evaporation method are tested as follows:

[0065] Weigh the same mass of gliclazide and gliclazide-piperazine cocrystals and put them into the crystallizer. Then add 200 ml of phosphate buffer (pH = 7.2-7.4) to the conical flask, suspend and stir at 37 ° C, the stirring speed is 100 rpm, and samples are taken at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 120, 180, and 300 min. Filter with a 0.22 μm filter membrane, the sample is fixed and diluted, and the 2020 edition of the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia", General Chapter 0512 liquid chromatography quantitative analysis is used. The results are as follows Figure 7 shown.

[0066] Depend on Figure 7It can be seen that the gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal can be dissolved within 5 minutes and the maximum dissolution rate can be reached in 60 minutes. The gliclazide-piperazine cocrystal has a faster dissolution rate than the gliclazide crystal.
