Compounds
using the
pKa AnalyzerPRO™
Challenges in Drug Development
• Increasing cost of drug development
– $0.9 to $1.3 billion per successful drug
– Clinical testing is very expensive; hence, want
only high-probability leads entering this phase.
• Large libraries of candidate compounds
have been created from combinatorial
chemistry
– Characterization of these leads is causing
major increases in analytical work loads

Changes in Drug Development Process
• Adopt strategy of “fail often, but fail early”
– Characterization of candidates as early as possible
– Eliminate “drug duds” very early in the process
• Perform physicochemical testing earlier in the
drug development process
– ADME (Adsorption, Digestion, Metabolism, Excretion)
– Toxicity

Why Physicochemical Properties?
• Many physicochemical assessments are laborintensive, and hence, are delayed until “hits” are
turned into “leads”
• Unsuitable physicochemical properties account
for up to 30% of drug failures
• Earlier determination of physicochemical
properties will generate better qualified
candidates to clinical testing – provided the
screening can be made cost-effective.
–Need new tools and technologies

pKa : Acid-base Dissociation Constant
• The pKa value is a measure of the ionization
ability of a weak acid or base:
HA  H+ + AKa = [H+][A-] / [HA]
pKa = - log Ka
pH = -log [H+]
pKa = pH – log ([A-] / [HA])
• From this last relationship, it is seen that the pKa
value is the pH at which a compound is 50%
ionized ([A-]/[HA] = 1; log 1 = 0)

Physicochemical Properties - pKa
• Why is pKa important?
– Most all drugs are weak acids or weak bases
– The pKa value of a compound strongly influences its
solubility, ability to permeate cell membranes,
complexation to drug targets, and bioactivity
– The pKa value is of fundamental importance in early
discovery and development processes for:
• Prediction of ADME (adsorption, distribution, metabolism,
excretion)
• Assessment of potential challenges in formulation/process
development
• Prediction of chromatographic / electrophoretic separation

High Throughput determination of
Physicochemical Properties - pKa
• Conventional pKa methods are lengthy and
labor-intensive
– Potentiometry – requires many hours; mg of pure sample;
stringent buffer conditions
– UV spectroscopy – requires a chromaphore influenced by
charge state; μg - mg of pure sample
– HPLC or capillary electrophoresis – relaxes purity demand, but
still low throughput (runs at multiple pH values)

Time
• CE-based platform; application of high voltage across capillary filled with
aqueous-based buffer
• Narrow bore, fused silica capillaries (75 mm i.d., 150 mm o.d.; 55 cm total
length/33 cm to detector)
• Electroosmotic flow (EOF) provides bulk flow towards cathode at pH > 4
• Application of vacuum provides additional bulk flow to detector at all pH values
• Migration time depends on analyte charge-to-mass ratio; neutral compounds
migrate with bulk flow
• Many publications describe single capillary CE for the determination of
compound pKa values, dating back >14 years

Principles of pKa AnalyzerPRO™ Technology
• UV light passing through the detection window of a 96-capillary array is imaged onto a
linear photodiode array detector
• Capillary inlets are arranged 8 x 12 for direct injection from 96-well sample plates; capillary
outlets are bundled to a common reservoir enabling vacuum-assisted separation
• Different pH buffers are injected into different capillaries of the array prior to separation
• Samples are separated by the application of a high voltage with vacuum flow
• Separation of compounds from the neutral marker as a function of pH is directly
proportional to their charge state, yielding the compound pKa value

Attributes of the pKa AnalyzerPRO™ for pKa Analysis
High Sample Throughput
96 separation channels allow for the measurement of 8 compounds over 12 pH
values, or 4 compounds over 24 pH values in a single analysis
Small Sample Consumption
Approximately 5 mg per sample well required for analysis; typical sample well
volume of 50 ml; only nl volumes injected
Separation of Potential Interferents
Sample impurities or degradants possessing different charge-to-mass ratios can
be resolved from target compound; compound pKa values can be measured in the
presence of UV absorbing counterions
Sample Requirements
Only UV absorptivity at 214 nm required; spectral changes between ionization
states not required; exact sample concentration does not need to be known
Multiplexed Format
Provides the capability to effectively span a wide pH range (pH 1.8 to pH 11.2) with
good resolution (0.4 pH units) to identify extreme pKa values, deconvolute closely
spaced pKa values, and improve confidence in results

Z = fractional charge on analyte
 = viscosity of medium
r = hydrodynamic radius of analyte
Relationships between Meff, pH, and Apparent pKa
Monoacid:

Meff =
Ma10-pKa
10-pKa + 10-pH
Mb10-pH
Ma, Mb = Meff of completely ionized species

To calculate the pKa value, a regression fit of Meff against pH is performed using the
appropriate fitting equation

Why is log P Important?
Drugs need to have enough lipophilicity in order
to:
• Absorb into the bloodstream and cross biological membranes
• Interact with proteins and/or receptors
• Have a reasonable half-life to carry out their function
However, too much lipophilicity in a drug can:
• Limit the mode of delivery
• Limit the release of the drug from the formulation
• Increase potential toxicity
The majority of marketed drugs possess log Pow
values between 1 and 5
Nov. 05
42
Experimental Design for MCE-UV log P Screening
• Multiplexed, microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC) was employed
for indirect log Pow evaluation.
• MEEKC is based on the differential partitioning of solutes between an aqueous phase
and an immiscible microemulsion (ME) phase comprised of oil droplets + surfactant
–
+
• More lipophilic compounds favor the ME phase and migrate slower
• Order of migration: DMSO (EOF marker), solute, dodecylbenzene (ME marker)

Summary – log Pow
• Log Pow can be estimated with good correspondence
using micro-emulsion electrokinetic chromatography
(MEEKC)
• This MEEKC method has been adapted to the pKa
AnalyzerPRO™, enabling rapid screening of log Pow
values for target drug candidates (46 samples/hr)
• Poorly soluble drug candidates can be analyzed using
co-solvent method
• Calculation and reporting of results is easily
accomplished with dedicated software
