Abstract

Data on (solid + liquid) equilibrium of tylosin tartrate in {methanol + (ethanol, 1-propanol or 2-propanol)} solvents will provide essential support for industrial design and further theoretical studies. In this study, the solubility of tylosin tartrate in alcohol mixtures was measured over temperature range from (278.15 to 323.15) K under atmospheric pressure by a gravimetric method. From the experimental results, the solubility of tylosin tartrate in selected solvents noted above was found to increase with increasing temperature and mass fraction of methanol. The solubility data were correlated with the modified Apelblat equation, the λh equation and van’t Hoff equation. The results showed that the three equations agreed well with the experimental values, and that the modified Apelblat equation was more accurate than the λh equation and van’t Hoff equation. Further, the standard enthalpy, standard entropy and standard Gibbs free energy of solution of tylosin tartrate in mixed solvents were calculated according to solubility results, model parameters with modified Apelblat equation and van’t Hoff equation.

Graphical abstract

Data on (solid + liquid) equilibrium of tylosin tartrate in {methanol + (ethanol, 1-propanol or 2-propanol)} solvents was measured over temperature range from (278.15 to 323.15) K under atmospheric pressure by a gravimetric method. From the experimental results, it can be seen that solubility of tylosin tartrate increases with increasing mass fraction of methanol in mixed solvents at a constant temperature, and increases with increasing temperature at the same mass fraction. The solubility of tylosin tartrate in methanol is higher than in methanol mixture solvents, and in 2-propanol is the lowest. The solubility data were correlated well with modified Apelblat equation, λh equation and van’t Hoff equation, and that modified Apelblat equation was more accurate than λh equation and van’t Hoff equation. Further, the standard enthalpy, standard entropy and standard Gibbs free energy of solution of tylosin tartrate in mixed solvents were calculated according to solubility data and model parameters with modified Apelblat equation and van’t Hoff equation.

Introduction

Tylosin tartrate (CAS Registry No: 74610-55-2) is a kind of the tylosin derivative and has the same antibiosis properties as tylosin. The chemical structure is shown in figure 1. Tylosin tartrate is a medium spectrum antibiotic not only used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of infections caused by most Gram-positive bacteria, mycoplasmas, some Gram-negative bacteria and Chlamydia [1], [2], [3], but also used as a feed additive to increase the rates of weight gain and improve the feed efficiency of companion animals, such as cattle, chicken, turkey, and swine [4], [5], [6]. But the residues of these antibiotics may stay in the edible tissue of animals and pose a threat to the health of humans when misused. Therefore, tylosin was banned as a growth promoter by the EU Commission in 1999 [7], disabled as drugs in fishery breeding by China’s agricultural industry standards NY 5071-2002, and canceled from edible animal breeding by FDA in U.S in 2014 [8]. Maximum residue levels (MRLs) of these drugs in livestock products have been established in many countries [9], [10], [11].

For expanding the fields of usage and purification of tylosin tartrate, the data of (solid + liquid) equilibrium are required. Liquid alcohols play an important role and are widely used in industry and science research as reagents, solvents and fuels. The solubility of tylosin tartrate in alcohol solvents has not been published at present. Hence we measured solubility of tylosin tartrate in {methanol + (ethanol, 1-propanol or 2-propanol)} over the temperature range from (278.15 to 323.15) K under atmospheric pressure by a gravimetric method. The experimental values were correlated with the modified Apelblat equation, the λh equation and van’t Hoff equation. The standard enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy of solution of tylosin tartrate were calculated according to the modified Apelblat equation and van’t Hoff equation.

Materials

Tylosin tartrate (C46H77NO17·C4H6O6, molar mass 1066.19) was obtained from Ningxia Tairui Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., China and re-crystallized. Its mass faction purity was 0.99, which was determined by HPLC (type Agilent 1200, Agilent Technologies). It was dried in vacuum at T = 23.15 K for 24 h and stored in a desiccator. All the solvents (purchased from Tianjin Wind Ship Chemical Co. Ltd., China) were analytical reagent grade. Their mass fraction purities were better than 99.5% and were used

Solubility data

Tylosin tartrate is a biological product and shows excellent stability at temperatures below 333.15 K [16], [17], and that the boiling points of selected solvents are lower. Therefore the solubility values of tylosin tartrate in alcohol mixtures within the temperature range from (278.15 to 323.15) K were determined by experiment. The results show in TABLE 2, TABLE 3 and graphically in FIGURE 3, FIGURE 4, FIGURE 5, respectively. The relative error (RD), the average absolute deviation (RAD) and the

Conclusions

New experimental results for solubility of tylosin tartrate in {methanol + (ethanol, 1-propanol or 2-propanol)} mixtures are presented in this work. The solubility of tylosin tartrate in selected solvents was studied over the temperature range from (278.15 to 323.15) K by a gravimetric method. The solubility of tylosin tartrate increases with increasing mass fraction of methanol in mixtures and with increasing temperature. The experiment results were well correlated with the modified Apelblat

      Moreover, all the ΔsolH° and ΔsolG° of Nintedanib in all the solvents were positive too. This proves that the dissolution of Nintedanib is an endothermic process [44]. From the records, we can also find out that the values are positive for ΔsolS° (with the relative standard uncertainties being 0.09) of Nintedanib in these solvents with the range being from 37.22 kJ·mol−1 to 119.18 kJ·mol−1, which makes it clear that it is entropy which drives the dissolution process of Nintedanib in the ten neat solvents.
