RESUMO
Propantheline bromide (PB) is a hydrolysable anti-cholinergic drug. A novel strategy for the online monitoring of PB degradation kinetics catalysed by hydroxyl ions is presented. This is achieved by the incorporation of an on-site PB-selective electrode constructed using as an ionophore. This sensor was used to track the hydrolysis of PB by continuous measurement of the decrease in the produced emf over time. The use of this new technique provides real-time observation and yields a continuous profile of the hydrolysis behaviour of PB under various pH conditions as well as the temperature dependency of each reaction. Moreover, a great advantage of this proposed on-line system is its higher accuracy for rate constant estimation relative to other off-line methods. This kinetic data analysis permitted the determination of the hydrolysis activation energy and prediction of the drug shelf life. The estimated activation energy from Arrhenius plot was 20.77 kcal mol(-1).

The kinetics of the solid-state hydrolysis of propantheline bromide (1) was studied with respect to the effect of temperature and water vapor pressure on the decomposition rate. For the hydrolysis at a relative humidity (RH) above the critical relative humidity (CRH), the percent decomposed (x) could be described by the empirical equation: x = ktn, where n is a constant independent of temperature and water vapor pressure, and k is related to temperature (T) and water vapor pressure (P) by the equation: k = k'e-Ea/RTPs (k' and s are constants). A mechanism in which the decomposition products serve to provide reaction nuclei is proposed. On the other hand, the hydrolysis at RH below the CRH could be described by a zero-order kinetic model with a lag time, and the dependence of the zero-order rate constant and the lag time on T and P was determined. The kinetic data suggested that decomposition occurs in an adsorbed moisture layer.

Nonlinear-regression analysis was applied to estimate the kinetic parameters for the solid-state hydrolysis of meclofenoxate hydrochloride [2-(dimethylamino)ethyl (4-chlorophenoxy)acetate hydrochloride; 1] and propantheline bromide [(2-hydroxyethyl)diisopropylmethylammonium bromide xanthene-9-carboxylate; 2]. The percent decomposed (x) at the initial stage of decomposition was found to conform to the empirical equation x = ktn, where n and k are constants. The goodness of fit of the data was better than with the Prout-Tompkins equation. The parameters indicating the dependence of the rate on temperature (T) and water vapor pressure (P) were estimated by nonlinear-regression analysis based on the equation: x = x0 exp[(Ea/R)(1/298-1/T)] (P/18.167)s(t/50)n, where xo is the percent decomposed at t = 50 d, T = 298 K and P = 18.167 mmHg, and Ea (activation energy), s, and n are constants. For the hydrolysis at a relative humidity (RH) above the critical relative humidity (CRH), nonlinear parameter estimation provided statistically meaningful estimates of Ea, s, x0, and n, and it was suggested that these parameters could be regarded as constants in the experimental range. For the hydrolysis at RH below the CRH, however, the parameters could not be converged by nonlinear-regression analysis, and Ea and/or s were assumed not to be constant in this RH range.

Parameters associated with the separation of antianxiety-antispasmodic agents were investigated using high-pressure liquid chromatography. Eight widely prescribed drugs were studied. The compounds were chromatographed on reversed-phase octadecyltrichlorosilane (C18) or diphenyldichlorosilane (phenyl) columns, using mixtures of absolute methanol and distilled water buffered with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, ammonium acid phosphate, or ammonium carbonate. A mixture of phenobarbital-propantheline bromide was selected to demonstrate the utility of the separation and quantification method. The mixture was chromatographed on a phenyl column, using absolute methanol-aqueous 1 percent ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (60:40) (pH 5.85) at a flow rate of 1.4 ml/min. Each determination can be achieved in approximately 15 min with an accuracy of 1-2 percent.

A rapid, specific and accurate proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopic method was developed for the simultaneous quantitative analysis of propantheline bromide and its degradation product, xanthanoic acid, in bulk materials and tablets. 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene served as an internal standard and deuterochloroform was used as the solvent for the analytical samples. The quantities of propantheline bromide and xanthanoic acid were calculated on the basis of the integrals for signals of the methine proton of propantheline at 5.09 ppm, the methine proton of xanthanoic acid at 4.99 ppm, and the aromatic protons of the internal standard at 9.39 ppm. The accuracy of the method was established through the analysis of synthetic mixtures containing the parent compound, its degradation product and the internal standard. An excellent agreement was verified between the assay results and the quantities of the various compounds in the mixtures. The mean +/- SD recovery values for propantheline bromide and xanthanoic acid from a set of 10 synthetic mixtures were 99.6 +/- 0.8% and 98.9 +/- 1.8%, respectively. The assay of 10 lots of commercial propantheline bromide tablets by 1H NMR spectroscopy indicated drug and degradate contents in the ranges 97.1-99.8% and 0.1-0.9%, respectively. In addition, the proposed analytical method was found suitable for detecting the formation of xanthanoic acid from propantheline bromide in aqueous media in concentrations below 0.1% of that of the parent compound.

This paper provides the basic principle and experimental technique of differential--linear combination equal value derivative spectrophotometry. Quantitative analysis of three or four component--mixture can be done without separation. This method was investigated to assay the contents of chlorphenamine and propantheline bromide in Pukeling tablets by using UV-210A spectrophotometer. The average recoveries of chlorphenamine and propantheline bromide were 100.2 +/- 1.49% (CV) and 99.89 +/- 1.03% (CV) respectively. The results showed that it not only can effectively remove disturbances from each other, but also give higher sensitivity and accuracy.

The masking mechanisms of the bitter taste of propantheline bromide (PB) and oxyphenonium (OB) bromide by native and modified cyclodextrins, saccharides, surfactants, organic acids, nonionic and anionic polymers, and other compounds were investigated with ion selective electrodes. The intensity of the bitter taste for a mixed solution of cyclodextrin with PB or OB was quantitatively explained from the observed electromotive force with the following assumptions: the complex and the masking agent do not have any tastes and the bitter taste is independent of other tastes. Sodium dodecyl sulfate reduced the bitter taste remarkably, and this reduction was also explicable on the basis of the same mechanism. Sodium taurodeoxycholate enhanced the bitter taste, because of its strong bitterness, although it formed 1 : 1 complexes with PB and OB. The masking mechanism of saccharides was ascribed to overcoming the weak bitterness of the drug by the strong sweetness. Lambda-carrageenan suppressed the bitter taste remarkably. This suppression was ascribed to the binding of PB and OB to lambda-carrageenan, the effect of the solution viscosity on the bitter taste, and the covering of the bitter taste receptor by lambda-carrageenan. It was suggested that the moderate masking by other polymers was attributable to the effect of the solution viscosity or the receptor covering. Native and modified beta-cyclodextrins, sodium dodecyl sulfate, lambda-carrageenan, Tween 20, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose are good masking agents for the bitter tastes of PB and OB. The drug ion selective electrode is a useful tool for understanding of the masking mechanism of the bitter taste, screening of masking agents, and estimation of appropriate concentrations of the masking agents.

The measurement of propantheline ion has been accomplished in urine and plasma following administration of propantheline bromide to man. Trideuteropropantheline bromide is added to the biological fluid to act as a carrier and internal standard to quantify the propantheline ion using multiple ion monitoring. Methane was used as reactant gas but following the discovery of exchange of the trideuteromethyl group when using methane, ammonia was used for later analyses. The determination of propantheline ion in urine and plasma after administration of propantheline bromide to man is described.

A major impurity in a sample of propantheline bromide tablets has been identified as 9-hydroxypropantheline on the basis of the proton magnetic resonance (PMR) and mass spectra (MS). This identification was confirmed by methanolysis of the tablet extract, which yielded a mixture of methyl xanthanoate and methyl 9-hydroxyxanthanoate. A liquid chromatographic (LC) procedure is described which will permit quantitation of 9-hydroxypropantheline bromide in the presence of propantheline bromide, xanthone, and xanthanoic acid.
