This study introduces a novel kinetic method to determine how ionic strength affects alkaline hydrolysis of indomethacin. This new approach significantly reduces experimental time while yielding comparable results to traditional methods.

Area of Science:

  • Chemical Kinetics
  • Physical Chemistry
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Alkaline hydrolysis is a crucial reaction pathway for many pharmaceuticals.
  • Understanding the influence of ionic strength on reaction rates is vital for drug stability and formulation.
  • Indomethacin is a widely used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the dependence of the pseudo-first-order rate constant on ionic strength for indomethacin alkaline hydrolysis.
  • To develop and validate a novel, time-efficient kinetic method for this investigation.

Main Methods:

  • A single kinetic experiment was performed by dynamically varying salt concentration.
  • The kinetic profile was analyzed using a variable-parameter kinetic equation.
