Crystalline solid forms of tigecycline and methods of preparing same
View Patent ↗Crystalline solid forms of tigecycline, Form I, Form II, Form III, Form IV, and Form V, compositions comprising these crystalline solid forms, and processes for preparing these crystalline solid forms are described herein.
1. A Form I tigecycline having X-ray powder diffraction peaks at about 5.2° 2θ, about 8.3° 2θ, about 11.1° 2θ, and about 24.8° 2θ and having a hot stage melting point onset temperature of about 170° C. to about 172° C.
2. A composition consisting essentially of Form I tigecycline having X-ray powder diffraction peaks at about 5.2° 2θ, about 8.3° 2θ, about 11.1° 2θ, and about 24.8° 2θ and having a hot stage melting point onset temperature of about 170° C. to about 172° C.
3. A process for preparing Form I tigecycline comprising crystallizing tigecycline out of a solution to form a slurry, and filtering the slurry to isolate Form I tigecycline having X-ray powder diffraction peaks at about 5.2° 2θ, about 8.3° 2θ, about 11.1° 2θ, and about 24.8° 2θ and having a hot stage melting point onset temperature of about 170° C. to about 172° C.
4. The process of claim 3 wherein the solution contains methylene chloride.
5. The process of claim 3 further comprising drying the solution prior to the crystallizing step.
6. The process of claim 3 further comprising stirring the slurry prior to the filtering step.
7. The process of claim 3 further comprising combining said Form I tigecycline with at least one pharmaceutically suitable carrier to form a pharmaceutical composition.
8. A pharmaceutical composition made by the process of claim 7 .
9. The process of claim 7 further comprising lyophilizing said pharmaceutical composition.
10. A pharmaceutical composition made by the process of claim 9 .
