CHIRAL CARBON is to which four
different groups are attached.

 Stereoisomer
• The particular types of isomer that differ from each
other only in the way the atoms are oriented in space
are called as STEREOISOMERS.

3. NOMENCLATURE OF CHIRAL COMPOUNDS
 OPTICAL ISOMERS:
clockwise then dextro (+)
anticlockwise then levo (-)
 CIRCULAR DICHROISM:
Differential absorption of left and right circularly
polaried rotation.
There are differences in absorption of the left and right
handed components of circularly polarised light by a non
racemic sample.

4.1 STERIC ASPECTS OF PHARMACOKINETICS
4.1.1 DRUG ABSORPTION
• same absorption rate for passive diffusion for
enantiomer
• sterioselective absorption for carrier mediated
absorption
• Stereoisomers with structural similarities to
endogenous entities and nutrients display
difference in permeability rates across the g.i.
membrane and hence in bioavailability.
12/33
•
L-DOPA absorbed by an amino acid transport system
is passes 4 to 5 times greater then that of DENANTIOMER.
•
Bioavailability of D-METHOTREXATE appears markedly
lower then L-ISOMER.
•
The L-METHOTREXATE is absorbed by active processes and
the D-METHOTREXATE is by passive absorption.
•
Crystalline structure of racemates may not same as individual
sterioisomers and there may be difference in dissolution rate of
racemate and single enantiomer.
13/33
4.1.2 DRUG DISTRIBUTION
•
•
•
•
The interaction of enantiomer with a plasma
protein yields a diastereomeric association.
(+)Oxazepam hemisuccinate has 30 to 50
time
higher association constants for albumin than
its
(-) isomer.
The S isomer of warfarin is bound to a greater
extent to albumin than R isomer.
Human albumin binds R-propranolol more
strongly than S-form.
14/33
4.1.3 DRUG BIOTRANSFORMATION
•
The intrinsic hepatic clearance of S-warfarin is reported to
be approximately two fold greater than that of R-warfarin.

times higher than that of the R isomer.

4.3 CHIRAL IMPURITY
.
CHIRAL
IMPURITY
The opposite
enantiomer in
single isomer
Excess
enantiomer in
racemic
compound
A diasteriomer
in homochiral or
racemic mixture
18/33

The presence of small amounts of opposite
enantiomer may significantly reduce the apparent
solubility of the enantiomer, because the racemic
compound will form in the solution and may
precipitate from the solution.

For example, the solubility of (+) dexclamol
hydrochloride is five times that of (_) dexclamol
hydrochloride.

In ephedrine and pseudoephedrine studies
demonstrated that traces of the enantiomeric impurity
might cause significant changes in the
physicochemical properties of the pure enantiomer.
19/33
4.4 ADVANTAGES OF USE OF SINGLE ENANTIOMER AS A
DRUG
 Separating
unwanted pharmacodynamic
side effects
 Reduce metabolic/renal/hepatic drug load.
 Reduce drug interactions.
 Avoid bioinversion
 Easier assessment of physiology, disease,
and drug co-administration effects.

6.1 ACCEPTANCE AND REJECTION OF API
The Chiraly pure drugs should be quantitatively
analyzed for the presence or absence of chiral
impurities besides the routine determination of
related impurities.
 The quantitative chiral analysis could be done by
TANDEM MS.
 Accept or reject a sample of API is based on the
ratio of the active/inactive enantiomers in the nonracemic mixtures.
 The intrinsic dissolution rate of chiraly pure API
may prove to be a useful QUALITY CONTROL
PARAMETER.

23/33
6.2 SELECTION OF ADJUVANTS

The adjuvant may be
 chiral or

non-chiral
•
The type and amount of the adjuvant may determine the
functionality of the dosage form, especially the drug release
rate.

The release of salbutamol and ketoprofen enantiomers from
hydroxypopylmethylcellulose (HPMC) matrixes shows that
stereoselectivity is dependent on the amount of chiral
excipient in the formulation
24/33
•
The release of eutomer R-salbutamol was higher
than that of the distomer S-salbutamol from the
gamma cyclodextrin tablets.
• So by selecting proper chiral excipient, distomer
can be retained in the dosage form.
• Applications of interaction between API and
chiral excipient may be explored in the areas of
sustained release buccal dosage form and colon
drug delivery system.
• Drug delivery system containing D-pantothanic
acid entrapped in pillared hydrotalcite*
( * CA Sep.10,2007.no.11 vol.147)
25/33
6.3 IN VITRO DISSOLUTION STUDIES AND VIVO STUDY
•
Crystals of both enantiomer & racemic compound are
having different molecular arrangement.
•
Due to the difference between the crystal lattice of both
forms, the solubility of pure enantiomers may be different
from the racemic compound.
•
The initial dissolution rate of racemic PROPRANOLOL
HCL was three times greater than that of enantiomers in
distilled water.
26/33
6.4 STABILITY STUDY
•
Racemization, or an optically inactive mixture of
corresponding dextro (d-) and levo forms is a major
factor in PHARMACEUTICAL STABILITY.
•
Thalidomide undergoes chemical racemization in
aqueous media.
• Besides chemical stability, dissolution stability is
also important for tablets and capsules.
27/33
6.5 NDA/ANDA APPLICATION
We should also keep in mind that increasing the
desired activity should not accompanied by a rise
in the untoward effect.
 FDA requires toxicology testing on the
racemate.
 The data of stereoselective dissolution testing
should be submitted for the enantiomers that
exhibit different action.

28/33
7. CHIRAL RESOLUTION

individual enantiomer.
 Methods use are :
 crystallization method
 chemical method
 biochemical method
 electrophoresis
 chromatography
