Electrochemical oxidation of ibuprofen
Bolíková, Markéta ; Křížek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kozlík, Petr (referee)
- 4 - Abstract This diploma thesis deals with the electrochemical oxidation of the active pharmaceutical ingredient ibuprofen as one of the parts of the stability studies of pharmaceutical products. The task is to ensure optimal conditions for the course of electrochemical oxidation, which produces the largest percentage of degradation products, to compare the flow and static experimental setup and its effect on the result of electrochemical oxidation and to identify the resulting degradation products. The examined conditions include the pH of the buffer used to dissolve ibuprofen, the potential applied to the working electrode and the duration of oxidation. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass detection was used to separate and determine degradation products. Acquity UPLC BEH C18 (2.1 × 100 mm; 1.7 µm) was chosen as the separation column. The mobile phase consisted of an aqueous component (10mM ammonium formate with pH 3.0) and an organic component (acetonitrile). Detection was performed using a photodiode array detector at a wavelength of 222 nm and a quadrupole mass detector in the scan range m/z 50-400. The electrochemical oxidation was performed in a radial electrochemical flow cell and the conditions under which the largest percentage of degradation products formed were as...
Degradation of the active pharmaceutical ingredient canagliflozin using electrochemical oxidation
Bolíková, Markéta ; Křížek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kozlík, Petr (referee)
This bachelor thesis is aimed at degradation of the active pharmaceutical ingredient canagliflozin by the electrochemical oxidation. The aim is to explore the influence of given measurement conditions on the course and the results of the electrochemical oxidation and to find out, under which conditions the largest percentage of the degradation products is formed. These conditions are, for example, the concentrations and pH values of the buffers which are used to dissolve the samples of canagliflozin, the flow rate of the electrochemically stressed substance solution through the flow cell or the thickness of the gasket inserted in front of the working electrode. Canagliflozin is an orally administered blood glucose lowering antidiabetic and is used to treat diabetes mellitus 2. type. It is one of the inhibitors of the sodium-glucose transporter type 2. For the separation of the degradation products of this pharmaceutically active substance, a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with a UV/VIS diode array detector using an Agilent Poroshell 120 SB-Aq chromatographic column (2.1 × 100 mm; 2.7 µm) was chosen. The mobile phase contained an aqueous component, which was 10 mM formate buffer with pH 3.5 and the organic component, which was acetonitrile. The electrochemical oxidation of...
