Abstract

ABSTRACTThe solubility of lamotrigine (LTG), clonazepam (CZP) and diazepam (DZP) in some {cosolvent (1) + water (2)} mixtures expressed in mole fraction at 298.15 K was calculated from reported solubility values expressed in molarity by using the densities of the saturated solutions. Aqueous binary mixtures of ethanol, propylene glycol and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone were considered. From mole fraction solubilities and some thermodynamic properties of the solvent mixtures, the preferential solvation of these drugs by both solvents in the mixtures was analysed by using the inverse Kirkwood–Buff integrals. It is observed that LTG, CZP and DZP are preferentially solvated by water in water-rich mixtures in all the three binary systems analysed. In {ethanol (1) + water (2)} mixtures, preferential solvation by water is also observed in ethanol-rich mixtures. Nevertheless, in {propylene glycol (1) + water (2)} and {N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (1) + water (2)} mixtures preferential solvation by the cosolvent was observed in cosolvent-rich mixtures.
