title: Characterization of polymorphs of a novel quinolinone derivative, TA-270 (4-hydroxy-1-methyl-3-octyloxy-7-sinapinoylamino-2(1H)-quinolinone).
abstract: The polymorphic forms and amorphous form of TA-270 (4-hydroxy-1-methyl-3-octyloxy-7-sinapinoylamino-2(1H)-quinolinone), a newly developed antiallergenic compound, were characterized by powder X-ray diffractometry, thermal analysis, infrared spectroscopy and solid state 13C-NMR. The intrinsic dissolution rates of polymorphic forms were measured using the rotating disk method at 37 degrees C. The dissolution rates correlated well with the thermodynamic stability of each polymorphic form. These dissolution properties were clearly reflected in the oral bioavailability of TA-270 in rats. The transition behavior for each polymorph and for the amorphous form was studied under the high temperature and humidity conditions. The beta- and delta-forms were transformed into the alpha-form by heating. The amorphous form was also easily crystallized into alpha-form by heating, however it was relatively stable under humidified conditions. The internal molecular packing of each polymorph was estimated from IR and solid state NMR spectral analysis.
