Se investigó la solubilidad de sulfadiazina (SD), sulfamerazina (SMR) y sulfametazina (SMT) en mezclas codisolventes de octanol + metanol a 278,15 K, 298,15 y 313,15 K. En todos los casos, la solubilidad más baja de cada fármaco se obtuvo en octanol puro a 278,15 K. La solubilidad máxima depende de la polaridad del fármaco, por lo que SMR y SMT alcanzaron su máxima solubilidad en mezclas cosolventes ricas en metanol. Las funciones termodinámicas de solución se calcularon a partir de los datos experimentales de solubilidad, utilizando las ecuaciones de van’t Hoff y Gibbs, siguiendo el enfoque propuesto por Krug et al. La entalpía de la solución es positiva en todos los casos, lo cual es una indicación del proceso endotérmico con un marcado favorecimiento entrópico. La solubilidad teórica y la concentración letal media se calcularon utilizando el modelo de Abraham.
This paper presents the thermodynamic analysis of solubility of gatifloxacin in the N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) + methanol (MeOH) cosolvent system at 10 temperatures. From the solubility data, the thermodynamic functions of solution, mixing, and transfers are calculated and analyzed using the Perlovich graphical method. On the other hand, an enthalpy-entropy compensation analysis is performed and the preferential solvation parameters are calculated using the inverse Kirkwood-Buff integral (IKBI) method. The result of the performed calculations indicates that the gatifloxacin solution process is endothermic with entropic favor, where the addition of DMF has a positive cosolvent effect in all cases. Regarding preferential solvation, the results are not entirely conclusive, since in all cases the values of the preferential solvation parameter are less than 0.01, so that, negligible preferential solvation takes place.
