Abstract

The solubilization of benzocaine with polyoxyethylene (23) lauryl ether and polysorbate 80 was determined as a function of temperature. The enhancement of the stability of benzocaine and homatropine solubilized with from 3 to 15% polyoxyethylene (23) lauryl ether and polysorbate 80 was quantitatively determined at 30, 50, and 70°. For the alkaline hydrolysis of benzocaine and homatropine, the logarithm of the specific rate constant is linearly related to the percent of the surface-active agent. The specific rate constant for the hydrolysis of benzocaine is linearly related to the reciprocal of the apparent solubility of benzocaine in polyoxy-ethylene (23) lauryl ether and polysorbate 80.
