Solution Overview

Problem

Current polymorphs of Pazopanib hydrochloride (Pazopanib HCl) exhibit varying solubility, particularly in acidic conditions, which affects the dissolution and performance of pharmaceutical products containing Pazopanib HCl.

Innovation Solution

A novel crystalline form F of Pazopanib HCl is developed, characterized by specific X-ray diffraction peaks and prepared through processes involving the reaction of N-(2-chloropyrimidin-4-yl)-N,2,3-trimethyl-2H-indazol-6-amine with 5-amino-2-methylbenzenesulfonamide in a solvent system, including methanol, to enhance solubility and stability.
