Abstract:
The objective of this work was to investigate the existence of polymorphs of SK-3530 and the transformation of crystal forms. Two crystal forms of SK-3530 have been isolated by recrystallization and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, powder X-ray diffractometry and thermogravimetric analysis. The differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffractometry patterns of two crystal forms were different respectively. After storage of 1 month at 0% RH (silica gel, 20°C), 52% RH (saturated solution of Na(2)Cr(2)O(7)·2H(2)O/20°C) and 95% RH (saturated solution of Na(2)HPO(4)/20°C), Form 2 was not transformed to Form 1 and two forms were shown to have a good physical stability at room temperature for 1 month. In the dissolution studies in pH 6.8 buffer at 37 ± 0.5°C, the dissolution rate of Form 2 was significantly higher than that of Form 1 under 30 min.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
