New Solid Forms of Griseofulvin: A Solvate and a Relict Polymorph Related to Reported Solvates.

ABSTRACT: This work presents two new solid forms, a polymorph and a solvate, of the antifungal active pharmaceutical ingredient griseofulvin (GSF). The novel forms were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis, and their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The new polymorphic form (GSF Form VI) was obtained upon drying at room temperature the GSF-acetonitrile solvate. GSF Form VI is a relict structure related to reported solvates of GSF. Thermal stability studies show that Form VI is metastable and monotropically related to the stable GSF Form I. The new GSF-n-butyl acetate solvate was obtained by crystallization from an n-butyl acetate solution. The stoichiometry of the n-but
