Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to crystalline salts and polymorphs of 2-phenyl-2-aminocyclohexane-1-one derivatives, which may be used to treat mental disorders. Background Technology

[0002] Depression is a common mental health problem, characterized by low mood and aversion to activity. A variety of symptoms associated with depression include persistent anxiety or sadness, helplessness, hopelessness, pessimism and / or feelings of worthlessness, lethargy, restlessness, irritability, fatigue, loss of interest in pleasurable activities or hobbies, excessive sleep, binge eating, loss of appetite, insomnia, suicidal thoughts, and suicide attempts. The presence, severity, frequency, and duration of these symptoms vary from person to person.

[0003] Approximately one-third of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) fail to achieve symptom relief, even after multiple rounds of treatment with various known classes of antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (Rush et al., 2006). The high prevalence of treatment-resistant depression (TRD) underscores the need for novel and more effective pharmacological therapies that target new mechanisms and / or patient populations.

[0004] U.S. Patent No. 11,344,510 (the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference) discloses in part compounds suitable for treating mental disorders, including 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one. U.S. patent application with serial number USSN 63 / 471,091 (SSMP file number: 41715) entitled “Synthesis of 2-phenyl-2-aminocyclohexane-1-one derivatives” (the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference) partially discloses polymorphs of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one hydrochloride.

[0005] Many compounds can exist as more than one salt, and these salts can exist in more than one crystalline or polymorphic form. These salts and polymorphs exhibit different physical, chemical, and spectroscopic properties relative to each other. For example, some salts or polymorphs of a compound may have higher chemical stability, be more readily crystallized, be more readily soluble in certain solvents, be more or less hygroscopic, be more readily flowable, or be more readily compressible than other salts or polymorphs. See, for example, P. DiMartino et al., J. Thermal Anal., 48:447-458 (1997). In the case of pharmaceuticals, some solid forms may have higher bioavailability than others, while other solid forms may be more stable under certain manufacturing, storage, and biological conditions. This is particularly important from a regulatory perspective, as pharmaceuticals can only obtain approval from government agencies such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration if they meet stringent purity and characterization standards. In fact, regulatory approval of a salt or polymorph of a compound exhibiting certain solubility and physicochemical (including spectroscopic) properties does not necessarily imply the approval of other salts or polymorphs of the same compound. In the pharmaceutical field, the salt and polymorphic forms of a compound are known to affect, for example, the compound's solubility, stability, flowability, fractability, and compressibility, as well as the safety and efficacy of drugs containing that compound. See, for example, Knapman, K. Modern Drug Discoveries, 2000, 53. Therefore, the discovery of novel salts and polymorphs of drugs can offer a variety of advantages.

[0006] However, finding the right conditions for preparing novel salts and polymorphs of a particular compound, and for crystallizing them, is tedious and often involves trial and error, as many factors come into play in finding the appropriate conditions for its synthesis and crystallization. For example, all solvents, concentrations, temperatures, heating or cooling rates, stoichiometry of reactants, addition rates, and mixing parameters must be varied to obtain the desired results.

[0007] This disclosure covers polymorphs of certain salts of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one and their stereoisomers, such as the R isomer. Furthermore, as described below, certain salts of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one and their stereoisomers, such as ( R Salts of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one can be prepared and isolated in various crystalline forms. Summary of the Invention

[0057] The salts disclosed herein comprise at least one asymmetric center. When a stereoisomer is specifically designated, these centers are specifically indicated by the symbol “R” or “S”, depending on the configuration of the substituents surrounding the chiral atom. However, when no stereochemistry is specified, structures will be drawn without indicating the stereochemistry; these structures are racemic mixtures. As used herein, whether bold or not, italic or non-italic, “R” refers to the R isomer, and as used herein, whether bold or not, italic or non-italic, the term “S” refers to the S isomer.

[0058] In some embodiments, the compositions prepared herein may be enriched with a specific enantiomer of any compound disclosed herein (relative to the corresponding opposite enantiomer of that compound) such that the mixture is not racemic. In such cases, the isomer mixtures of this disclosure should be understood to have an enantiomer excess of >0% and optical purity. The enantiomer excess or optical purity of the isomer mixture may be, for example, >0%, >5%, >25%, >50%, >75%, >90%, >95%, >97%, >98%, or >99%. The enantiomer excess or optical purity of the isomer mixture may be, for example, 5% to 100%, 25% to 100%, 50% to 100%, 75% to 100%, 90% to 100%, 95% to 100%, 97% to 100%, 98% to 100%, or 99% to 100%. Therefore, for example, this document contemplates compositions comprising the S enantiomer of a compound substantially free of the R enantiomer or the R enantiomer substantially free of the S enantiomer. Furthermore, if the mentioned compound comprises more than one chiral center, the scope of this disclosure also includes compositions containing various stereoisomers and diastereomers, including mixtures of various stereoisomers and / or diastereomers in different proportions or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and compositions comprising one or more stereoisomers and diastereomers substantially free of one or more other stereoisomers and / or diastereomers, respectively. In this context, "substantially free" means that the composition comprises less than, for example, 50%, 25%, 15%, 10%, 8%, 5%, 3%, 2%, or 1% of one or more minor enantiomers or diastereomers. For example, the statement "the compound is enantiomerically pure" means that the compound substantially free of other stereoisomers, including any other enantiomers or diastereomers.

[0059] For clarity, in the context of this disclosure, the chemical structures (defined by wedge and dashed symbols) of compounds having a specific stereochemical orientation at any particular chiral center are intended to indicate that a specified stereoisomer of the compound exists in substantially pure form, or that a mixture is rich in stereoisomers having a specified stereochemical orientation at the defined chiral center, more than stereoisomers having an opposite orientation at the chiral center.

[0060] As used herein, the term "composition substantially free of" (where a polymorph is involved) means that the composition is predominantly present in a particular polymorph relative to other polymorphs. For example, 1 R HCl exists in two solid forms: form 1 and form 2. RThe presence of HCl in form 1, which is substantially free of form 2, means that the form 1 polymorph is present as the predominant polymorph relative to form 2, i.e., the form 1 polymorph is present in excess relative to the form 2 polymorph. "Substantially free of form 2 relative to form 1" means that the composition includes, for example, less than 50%, 25%, 15%, 10%, 8%, 5%, 3%, 2%, or 1% of the form 2 polymorph relative to form 1. Similarly, the use of the term "the composition is substantially free of form 1 relative to form 2" indicates that the composition includes, for example, less than 50%, 25%, 15%, 10%, 8%, 5%, 3%, 2%, or 1% of the form 1 polymorph relative to form 2.

[0061] As used herein, the terms “about” or “approximately” refer to the acceptable margin of error for a particular value as determined by a person skilled in the art, which will depend in part on the method of measurement or determination of that value, i.e., the limitations of the measurement system. For example, “about” may refer to a range of 3 or more standard deviations, based on practice in the art. Alternatively, “about” may refer to a range of up to 20%, up to 10%, up to 5%, and / or up to 1% of a given value. Additionally, specifically with respect to biological systems or methods, the term may refer to a range within orders of magnitude of the value, such as within 5 times or 2 times. “About” and “approximately” are used interchangeably herein.

[0062] As defined herein, "inert solvent" means a solvent that does not react with reactants or products formed in the reaction. Suitable organic solvents applicable to this disclosure include, but are not limited to: alcohols having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, butanol, etc.; ketones having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, etc.; ether solvents having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, methyl ethyl ether, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), dipropyl ether, diisopropyl ether, etc.; cyclic ethers having 4 to 6 carbon atoms, such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), dioxane, etc.; halogens Suitable solvents include, but are not limited to, dichloroethane, dichloromethane, chloroform, etc.; esters having 2-10 carbon atoms, such as ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, n-propyl acetate, etc.; nitriles, such as acetonitrile, propionitrile, etc.; hydrocarbons having 1-10 carbon atoms, including aryl groups, such as toluene, xylene, cyclohexane, heptane, xylene, etc.; dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA), etc.; and mixtures thereof in various proportions (unrestricted). The use of suitable solvents includes the use of mixtures of solvents. The suitability of a particular solvent for a reaction depends on a variety of factors, such as the type of reaction, reactants, products, and reagents used.

[0064] As used herein, the term "proton polar solvent" refers to a solvent having at least one OH or NH bond and being miscible with water. Examples include water, methanol, ethanol, ammonia, etc.

[0065] This document depicts the XRPD spectra of polymorphs. Each polymorph is characterized by having, or substantially having, the XRPD spectra shown in its corresponding foregoing figures, for example, at least 70% of the peaks in the XRPD spectra vary within ±0.50°2θ at the indicated values; in another embodiment, at least 75% of the peaks in the XRPD spectra vary within ±0.50°2θ at the indicated values; in yet another embodiment, at least 80% of the peaks in the XRPD spectra vary within ±0.50°2θ at the indicated values; in yet another embodiment, at least 85% of the peaks in the XRPD spectra vary within ±0.50°2θ at the indicated values; and in yet another embodiment, at least 90% of the peaks in the XRPD spectra vary within ±0.50°2θ at the indicated values. However, it should be understood that the relative intensities and distributions of the peaks in these polymorphic forms depicted in these figures can vary depending on a variety of factors, including but not limited to sample preparation, aspect ratio, particle size, mounting, and the instruments, analytical procedures, and settings used to obtain the spectra. Therefore, the peaks observed in the figures and the allocations listed in the various tables and figures herein are intended to cover variations of ±0.5°2θ and variations of relative peak intensity that are acceptable to those skilled in the art. However, it should be understood that the peaks in the tables and figures also cover variations of ±0.1, ±0.2, ±0.3, and ±0.4°2θ or any values ​​between them. When listing XRPD peaks, it should be understood that each of the listed values ​​is ±0.50°2θ, even when ±0.50°2θ is not listed. Furthermore, when the peak list has a variation (e.g., ±0.50°2θ) at the end of the list for the purposes of this disclosure, each value in the peak list is modified by the listed variation (e.g., ±0.50°2θ). In other embodiments, the depicted or listed XRPD peaks have variations between ±1°2θ and ±0°2θ, such as ±1°2θ, ±0.75°2θ, ±0.20°2θ, or ±0.10°2θ.

[0066] Unless otherwise stated, the term "freebase" or "free base" refers to 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one in its base form (the aproticized form without any counterions) or one of its enantiomers, if specified, either R-freebase or S-freebase. Therefore, as used herein, the term "free base" refers to the structure... Therefore, "R free base" refers to the R isomer of this structure, and "S free base" refers to the S isomer of this structure. Furthermore, the term "deuterated free base" refers to the structure... Therefore, "R-deuterated free base" refers to the R isomer of this structure, and "S-deuterated free base" refers to the S isomer of this structure.

[0067] As defined herein, the term "solvent" refers to a liquid substance or mixture of liquid substances capable of dissolving another substance (solute) to form a solution, wherein the solute is uniformly dispersed at the molecular or ionic level. For the purposes of this disclosure, a solvent may be a reaction solvent or a crystallization solvent. Solvents mentioned herein are inert solvents in relation to the solute or reactant.

[0068] As defined herein, "inert solvent" is a solvent that does not react with reactants or products formed in a chemical reaction.

[0069] The term "reaction solvent" or similar term refers to a solvent in which a chemical reaction occurs. It is an inert solvent, meaning it does not react with the free base or acid or the products formed. In one embodiment, the free base and acid are soluble therein, while the product salt may or may not be soluble therein. Furthermore, in one embodiment, it is a volatile solvent. Additionally, in another embodiment, it is a volatile solvent with a boiling point of 90°C or lower at 1 atmosphere.

[0070] As used herein, the term "crystallization solvent" or similar terms refer to an inert solvent used to crystallize the salt of this disclosure, wherein the salt is poorly soluble at room temperature or low temperatures but becomes more soluble when heated to, for example, the boiling point of the solvent. Ideally, the salt is practically insoluble or slightly soluble in the solvent at room temperature, but extremely soluble at the boiling point of the solvent. The crystallization solvent can be a single solvent or a mixture of solvents. If it is a mixture of liquid solvents, it can be miscible. In one embodiment, water can be a solvent or a co-solvent. As used herein, the term "recrystallization solvent" refers to a crystallization solvent, and the two terms are used interchangeably.

[0071] The term "crystallization," when applied to compounds, refers to a solid phase in which the substance has a regular, ordered internal structure at the molecular level and produces a distinctive X-ray diffraction pattern with defined peaks. Essentially, crystallization means that a composition contains more than 50%, or more than 55%, or more than 60%, or more than 65%, or more than 70%, or more than 75%, or more than 80%, or more than 85%, or more than 90%, or more than 95%, or more than 99% of the compound in crystalline form.

[0072] Throughout this disclosure, the term “crystallization” may refer to crystallization and / or recrystallization, depending on the applicable circumstances relating to the preparation of the salts described herein.

[0073] As used herein, unless otherwise stated, the terms “polymorph” and “polycrystalline form” (used synonymously herein) refer to the solid crystalline form of a compound or complex. Different polymorphs of the same compound can exhibit different physical, chemical, and / or spectroscopic properties. Different physical properties include, but are not limited to, stability (e.g., resistance to heat or light), compressibility and density (important in formulation and product manufacturing), and dissolution rate (which can affect bioavailability). Differences in stability can be caused by variations in chemical reactivity (e.g., differential oxidation, causing dosage forms containing one polymorph to discolor more quickly than those containing another) or mechanical characteristics (e.g., tablets breaking during storage due to the kinetically favorable transformation of a polymorph into a thermodynamically more stable polymorph) or both (e.g., tablets of one polymorph are more prone to breakage at high humidity).

[0074] The different physical properties of polymorphs and / or salts can affect their processing. For example, due to factors such as particle shape or size distribution, one polymorph may be more likely to form solvates or be more difficult to filter or wash to remove impurities than another polymorph.

[0075] Polymorphs of molecules can be obtained by a variety of methods known in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, melt recrystallization, melt cooling, solvent crystallization, desolvation, rapid evaporation, rapid cooling, slow cooling, vapor diffusion, and sublimation. Polymorphs can be detected, identified, classified, and characterized using well-known techniques, such as, but not limited to, melting point, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), single-crystal X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy, solution calorimetry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in the solid state, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, hot-stage optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron crystallography and quantitative analysis, particle size analysis (PSA), surface area analysis, solubility, and dissolution rate.

[0076] As used herein, "peak" refers to a spectrum or data presented in graphical form (e.g., XRPD, DSC, IR, Raman, and NMR spectra), and unless otherwise specified, the term "peak" means a peak or other special feature that a person skilled in the art would recognize as not attributable to background noise.

[0088] When referring to graphical or other graphical representations of data relating to any crystal, solid, polymorph, or mixture thereof described herein, the terms “substantially,” “substantially as depicted,” and “substantially as shown” mean changes in peak intensity or position in an X-ray diffraction pattern resulting from minor variations in the data in the identified graph, such as those attributable to factors like instrumental response, aspect ratio, particle size, experimental error, and variations in sample concentration or purity. Nevertheless, those skilled in the art will be able to readily compare the graphical data in the figures herein with graphical data in a second polymorph, crystal, or solid form and confirm whether the two sets of graphical data characterize the same material or two different materials. It should be understood that all figures therefore represent the inherent properties of the polymorph, crystal, or solid form to which they relate, and the specific data presented are substantially as depicted in the figures, regardless of whether the modifier is substantially explicitly included in any description of the figures.

[0089] The terms “substantially,” “substantially as depicted,” and “substantially as shown” used in DSC thermal analysis plots refer to peak temperatures approximately equal to the shown values ​​and having the same number of peaks as depicted.

[0090] Furthermore, the term "a / an" is used to describe the elements and components described herein. This is done merely for convenience and to broadly define the scope of the invention. This description should be understood to include one or at least one.

[0091] Furthermore, the singular includes the plural, and vice versa, unless there is a clear other meaning.

[0092] Furthermore, unless explicitly stated otherwise, "or" refers to an inclusive "or," not an exclusive "or." For example, either of the following satisfies condition A or condition B: A is true (or exists) and B is false (or does not exist); A is false (or does not exist) and B is true (or exists); and both A and B are true (or exist).

[0093] Furthermore, as used herein, the term “and / or” is synonymous with the term “or”.

[0094] When representing a range or list of values, the implementation includes the endpoints of the range and / or list, as well as all points in between. For example, a range of 6 to 9 includes the values ​​6 and 9, and all values ​​in between. Similarly, when values ​​are indicated as approximate values ​​using the prefix “about,” it should be understood that the range of values ​​begins at the two endpoints of “about,” where “about” is defined as described herein. All ranges are inclusive and composable. Furthermore, references to values ​​described by range include every value within that range.

[0095] Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. While similar or equivalent methods and materials to those described herein may be used to practice or test embodiments of this disclosure, suitable methods and materials are described below. All publications, patent applications, patents, and other references mentioned herein are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety unless a specific paragraph is cited. In case of conflict, this disclosure (including its limitations) shall prevail. Furthermore, the materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and are not intended to be restrictive.

[0144] Example 6. Screening of polymorphs of 1R HCl salt (Form 1) from Example 1.

[0145] Based on the approximate solubility of the product of Example 1 (1R HCl form 1), screening experiments were conducted using various screening techniques to search for possible additional crystalline forms (polymorphs). These techniques included, but were not limited to, slow evaporation, slow cooling, solvent-resistant addition, slurrying at room temperature and 50°C, temperature cycling, diffusion (solid and liquid), and polymer-induced crystallization. Various procedures are outlined below.

[0146] 1. Pulping at room temperature Using a magnetic stirrer at room temperature, approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 was slurried in 0.5–1.0 mL of different solvents in a 4.0 mL glass vial. The solids in the slurry were stirred for 7 days.

[0147] 2. Pulping at 50℃ At room temperature (50°C), approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 was slurried in 0.5–1.0 mL of different solvents in a 4.0 mL glass vial using a magnetic stirrer. The solids in the slurry were stirred for 3 days.

[0148] 3. Antisolvent addition Approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 was dissolved in a solvent to produce a saturated solution, and an antisolvent was added at a volume ratio of up to 10. If present, the solid was collected.

[0149] 4. Slow cooling (thermal circulation) Approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 was dissolved in a solvent, heated, and cycled at temperatures of 45°C / 1 hour → 35°C / 4 hours → 25°C / 4 hours → 15°C / 4 hours → 5°C / 4 hours, followed by cooling for 7 days. The resulting solid (if present) was collected after 7 days.

[0150] 5. Slow evaporation Approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 was dissolved in a solvent in a vial to produce a saturated solution. The vial opening was sealed with sealing film or aluminum foil (2-hole). The vial was kept at room temperature under a fume hood. The resulting solids (if present) were collected after 7 days.

[0151] 6. Liquid vapor diffusion Approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 was dissolved in a solvent to produce a saturated solution in a 4.0 mL glass vial. The vial was then placed in a 20 mL glass vial containing an antisolvent. The resulting solid was collected after 7–10 days.

[0152] 7. Solid vapor diffusion Place approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 into a 4.0 mL glass vial; then place this vial into a 20 mL glass vial containing solvent. Collect the solid after 7–10 days.

[0153] 8. Polymer-induced crystallization.

[0154] Approximately 40 mg of the product from Example 1 and 2.0 mg of the listed polymer were added to the solvent and stirred at room temperature. After 7 days, the solids in the slurry or the solids precipitated from the solution were collected.

[0155] The results are provided in Table 2 below.

[0157] CL = Clear liquid HCl-1 = Form 1 polymorph HCl-2 = a mixture of polymorphs of form 1 and form 2.

[0158] The data above shows that there are at least two polymorphic forms of hydrochloride salts, which will be identified as Form 1 and Form 2 below.

[0159] Various methods were employed in characterizing the polymorphs described herein, including XRPD spectra with a wide range of peaks. The peaks observed in the figures and the assignments listed herein are intended to cover variations within ±0.5°2θ. Therefore, the peaks observed in the figures include given values ​​of ±0.1°2θ, ±0.2°2θ, ±0.3°2θ, ±0.4°2θ, and ±0.5°2θ. Thus, the XRPD spectra are essentially as shown, where the peaks in the figures and / or tables herein are, for example, ±0.5°2θ or other reasonable variations as described above. The entire list of peaks, or its subgroups, is sufficient to characterize the crystalline form or its characteristics by substantially similar spectra that can be identified by those skilled in the art using characterization methods drawn within experimental variations.

[0160] Polymorphic form 1 from each of the above screening experiments was collected, and XRPDs of each were obtained. An exemplary depiction of the XRPD of the HCl form 1 polymorph is shown in [image / description]. Figure 2 middle.

[0164] The product of Example 1 was visualized using polarized light microscopy (PLM). Figure 3 The text indicates that form 1R HCl is an irregularly shaped crystalline solid. More specifically, the crystal of form 1 is orthorhombic. Figure 4 The image shows the DSC / TGA overlay for form 1R HCl. The first endothermic peak is approximately 238.0 °C, and the second peak is approximately 270.5 °C. Furthermore, as... Figure 4 As shown, when 1R HCl form 1 is heated from room temperature to 100°C, there is a 0.34% weight loss, indicating that almost no solvent is trapped and the crystals are neither hydrates nor solvates.

[0165] 1R HCl form 1 was analyzed by DVS (0-90-0-90-0% relative humidity, at 25°C). DVS behavior is shown in... Figure 5 In (a) and (b), 1 plots the first-cycle desorption, 2 plots the second-cycle adsorption, 3 plots the second-cycle desorption, 4 plots the first-cycle adsorption, 5 plots the target % P / Po, and 6 plots the dm curve, where P is the vapor pressure, Po is the saturated vapor pressure, and P / Po corresponds to the relative humidity % of water. The data show that 1R HCl form 1 significantly absorbs moisture at relative humidity above approximately 80%, but readily releases moisture at lower humidity. It was observed that after 3 days of DVS at 0% relative humidity, the sample reverted to the same crystalline form as the initial solid.

[0166] Furthermore, the form 1 polymorph can be sublimated from the solid phase to the gas phase without passing through the liquid phase. The form 1 polymorph was heated to 300°C. The substance recovered from sublimation had the same XRPD pattern as 1R HCl form 1.

[0168] Similar XRPD, DSC, and DVS spectra of deuterated 1R HCl as in Example 2 can be obtained. More specifically, subjecting deuterated R hydrochloride to the polymorph screening described above yields results similar to those depicted in Table 2. The XRPD of deuterated R hydrochloride form 1 is substantially the same as that obtained from 1R HCl form 1. Deuterated R hydrochloride form 1 is an irregularly shaped crystalline solid. The DVS behavior of deuterated 1R hydrochloride form 1 is substantially the same as that of 1R HCl. When heated to 300°C, other deuterated 11R hydrochloride forms 1 can sublimate from the solid phase into the gas phase.

[0170] XRPD, DSC, and DVS spectra of 1S HCl salts can be obtained. Processing 1S hydrochloride using the polymorphism screening method described above yields results similar to those shown in Table 2. The XRPD of 1S hydrochloride form 1 is essentially the same as that obtained from 1R HCl form 1. 1S hydrochloride form 1 is an irregularly shaped crystalline solid. The DVS behavior of 1S hydrochloride form 1 is essentially the same as that of 1R HCl.

[0171] Screening of polymorphs of deuterated 1S HCl salt (Form 1) in Example 4.

[0172] XRPD, DSC, and DVS spectra of deuterated 1S HCl salts can be obtained. For example, subjecting deuterated 1S hydrochloride to the polymorphism screening described above yields results similar to those shown in Table 2. The XRPD of deuterated 1S hydrochloride form 1 is substantially the same as that obtained from 1R HCl form 1. Deuterated 1S hydrochloride form 1 is an irregularly shaped crystalline solid. The DVS behavior of deuterated 1S hydrochloride form 1 is substantially the same as that of 1R HCl. When heated to a maximum of 300°C, other deuterated 1S hydrochloride forms 1 can sublimate from the solid phase into the gas phase.

[0173] Example 7. Second hydrochloride polymorph.

[0174] The second crystalline form of 1R HCl, form 2, was detected according to the screening procedure described in Table 2. Form 2 of 1R HCl can be obtained at room temperature from approximately 40 mg of 1R HCl (form 1) suspended in 0.5–1.0 mL of acetonitrile or suspended in acetone / H₂O (a… w The form 2 crystal form was recovered and detected in the solid mixture (=0.3). Furthermore, it was also detected in the crystal mixture obtained by dissolving form 1 in dichloromethane in a vial to produce a saturated solution. The vial could be kept in a fume hood at room temperature for one day until a solid was obtained.

[0175] In all three cases, the resulting solids were characterized by XRPD (X-ray powder diffraction). XRPD observations revealed a second polymorph, 1R HCl form 2, as well as 1R HCl form 1. The solids obtained by these methods did not accumulate 1R HCl form 2 over time. However, under a microscope, the crystals of form 2 could be physically separated from form 1 manually by pulling the particles out with tweezers. The XRPD pattern of the mixture of 1R HCl form 1 and form 2 is shown below. Figure 6 middle.

[0176] The availability of chiral separation of single crystals allows for further analysis of Form 2 via single-crystal X-ray analysis. Figure 1 The ORTEP plots of (a) form 1 and (b) form 2 of 1RHCl are shown. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction data are shown in Table 4.

[0178] This data clearly distinguishes these forms. Furthermore, the simulated XRPD spectra generated from single X-ray data demonstrate extremely high fidelity compared to the measured XRPD spectra generated from samples that have undergone XRPD. The simulated XRPD spectra for form 2 are shown below. Figure 7 The peaks are shown in Table 5 below. Figure 7 middle.

[0181] Second-generation 1R hydrochloride polymorph.

[0182] A second polymorph of deuterated 1R hydrochloride, namely form 2, can be detected and is expected to have the same solubility as hydrochloride form 2 described in Table 2. For example, it can be obtained at room temperature by suspending approximately 40 mg of deuterated 1R hydrochloride form 1 in 0.5 to 1.0 mL of acetonitrile or acetone / H2O (a w =0.3) was detected in the solid mixture recovered. Furthermore, the form 2 polymorph was also detected in the crystalline mixture obtained by dissolving deuterated 1R hydrochloride form 1 in dichloromethane in a vial to produce a saturated solution. The vial was kept in a fume hood at room temperature for one day until a solid was obtained.

[0183] The resulting solids were characterized by XRPD. A second polymorph of deuterated 1R hydrochloride, form 2 of deuterated 1R hydrochloride, and form 1 of 1R HCl were generated. However, under a microscope, the crystals of form 2 of deuterated 1R hydrochloride could be physically separated from form 1 by pulling the particles out with tweezers. The XRPD of the mixture of forms 1 and 2 of deuterated 1R hydrochloride was substantially the same as that of the mixture of forms 1 and 2.

[0184] The availability of chiral separation single crystals allows for further analysis of deuterated 1R hydrochloride form 2 via single-crystal X-ray analysis.

Furthermore, form 2 polymorph was also detected in a crystalline mixture obtained by dissolving deuterated 1R hydrochloride form 1 in dichloromethane in a vial to produce a saturated solution. The vial was kept in a fume hood at room temperature for one day until a solid was obtained.

[0187] A second polymorph of 1S HCl, namely form 2, has been discovered. For example, its solubility can be assessed at room temperature by suspending approximately 40 mg of 1S HCl form 2 in 0.5 to 1.0 mL of acetonitrile or acetone / H₂O (a w=0.3) was detected in the solid mixture recovered. Furthermore, the 1S hydrochloride form 2 polymorph was also detected in the crystalline mixture obtained by dissolving 1S HCl form 1 in dichloromethane in a vial to produce a saturated solution. The vial was kept in a fume hood at room temperature for one day until a solid was obtained.

[0188] In all cases, the resulting solids were characterized by XRPD (X-ray powder diffraction). XRPD observations revealed the formation of a second polymorph, 1S HCl form 2, as well as 1S HCl form 1. The solids obtained by these methods did not accumulate 1S HCl form 2 over time. However, under a microscope, the crystals of form 2 could be physically separated from form 1 by pulling the particles out with tweezers. The XRPD of the mixture of 1S HCl form 1 and form 2 was substantially the same as that of 1R HCl form 1 and form 2. Furthermore, the simulated XRPD pattern of 1S hydrochloride form 2 was substantially similar to that of 1R hydrochloride form 2.

Furthermore, the deuterated 1S hydrochloride form 2 polymorph was also detected in a crystalline mixture obtained by dissolving 1S HCl form 1 in dichloromethane in a vial to produce a saturated solution. The vial was kept in a fume hood at room temperature for one day until a solid was obtained.

[0190] In all cases, the resulting solids can be characterized by XRPD (X-ray powder diffraction). According to XRPD, the formation of a second polymorph, deuterated 1S HCl form 2, and deuterated 1S HCl form 1, can be observed. The solids obtained by these methods do not accumulate deuterated 1S HCl form 2 over time. However, under a microscope, the crystals of form 2 can be physically separated from form 1 by pulling the particles out with tweezers. The XRPD of the mixture of deuterated 1S HCl forms 1 and 2 is substantially the same as that of 1R HCl forms 1 and 2. The simulated XRPD pattern of deuterated 1S form 2 is substantially similar to that of 1R hydrochloride form 2.

The stoichiometric ratio of base to acid is 1:1. The DSC-TGA of deuterated R sulfate-1 is essentially the same as that of sulfate-1. Furthermore, the DVS pattern of deuterated R sulfate-1 is essentially the same as that of sulfate-1. Similarly, the deuterated ( R 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-2 (deuterated R sulfate-2) is formed using the same procedure described above for forming sulfate-2, except that a deuterated R free base is substituted for ( R The free base was 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one. The XRPD of the resulting wet filter cake had a substantially identical XRPD diffraction pattern to that of sulfate-2.

[0215] Drying the wet filter cake of deuterated R sulfate-2 at room temperature yields a new crystalline polymorph, namely deuterated ( R)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-3 (deuterated R sulfate-3) exhibits essentially the same XRPD diffraction pattern as sulfate-3.

Its XRPD diffraction pattern is similar to that of (…). R The base-to-acid ratio of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-1 is essentially the same as that of sulfate-1.

[0218] Similarly, adding 1 mol equivalent of sulfuric acid to 40 mg of deuterated S free base in an inert solvent (such as isopropanol, ethyl acetate, and tetrahydrofuran, totaling 0.25 mL) produces deuterated ( R )-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-1 (hereinafter referred to as deuterated S sulfate-1), which has the same properties as ( R The XRPD diffraction pattern of 1-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate is essentially the same as that of sulfate-1.

Furthermore, the DVS pattern of deuterated S sulfate-1 is essentially the same as that of sulfate-1.

Further drying of the S sulfate-3 crystals at a set temperature of 40 °C yielded a different polymorph identified herein as (S)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-4 (S sulfate-4). The XRPD diffraction pattern of S sulfate-4 was substantially the same as that of sulfate-4.

The XRPD of the resulting wet filter cake of deuterated S sulfate-2 had essentially the same XRPD diffraction pattern as that of sulfate-2.

[0223] Drying the wet filter cake of deuterated (S)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-2 at room temperature yields a new crystalline polymorph, namely deuterated (S)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one sulfate-3 (deuterated S sulfate-3), which exhibits essentially the same XRPD diffraction pattern as sulfate-3.

R )-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one produces a polymorph, designated as deuterated ( R )-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexane-1-one fumarate-1 (deuterated R fumarate-1, or alternatively identified as deuterated RFum-1). The stoichiometry of the free base to acid in deuterated R is 1:1. The XRPD and DSC-TGA patterns of deuterated Fum-1 are substantially the same as those of Fum-1. Furthermore, the DVS pattern of deuterated RFum-1 is substantially the same as that of Fum-1.

The XRPD diffraction patterns and DSC-TGA of both S Fum-1 and deuterated S Fum-1 are substantially identical to those of Fum-1. In addition, the DVS spectra of S Fum-1 and deuterated S Fum-1 are basically the same as those of Fum-1.
