Abstract
The saturated vapour pressure of the cardiovascular drug nifedipine is measured within the temperature range (390.15–404.15) K by the inert gas-carrier method. The thermodynamic functions of sublimation of the compounds are calculated at a reference temperature. The standard molar enthalpy of nifedipine sublimation is found to be equal to 144.8 kJ∙mol−1. The drug solubility in solvents modeling various media of the human body is determined in the temperature range (293.15–313.15) K. In the ascending order of solubility values of the studied compound, the solvents can be arranged as follows: buffer pH 7.4, buffer pH 2.0, n-hexane, 1-octanol. The solute–solvent intermolecular interactions are discussed based on the thermodynamic functions of solubility, solvation and transfer.
