Exam 2 Flashcards
A salt is a chemical reaction between
an acid and base
How is salt different from an ionized acid or base
it contains a counter-ion while an ionized species does not
Inorganic salts: counter ion is _____ carbon based
Organic salts: counter ion ____ carbon based
is not
is
Inorganic salts can only increase the solubility of what
lipids
If a salt is a cation what is the drug (counter ion is positive)
anion, acidic group
The ionic nature of the salt enhances ___________ and _________ of solid drug in water
solvation and dissolution
Organic salts can enhance solubility of what
water and lipids
All organic salts that are water soluble contain numerous ________ groups capable of H-bonding with water
polar
Lipid soluble organic salts contain substantial ________ ______________ that act to enhance lipid solubility
nonpolar hydrocarbons
Drug-drug interactions can occur if ______ drugs are mixed with _______ drugs and vice versa because they will react with each other to form a salt
acidic and basic
n-octanol has a ________ hydrocarbon chain and a _______ head group which mimics phospholipids
non-polar
polar
The ratio of the concentration of compound that was found in the n-octanol later to the concentration found in the water layer is called the
partition coefficient (P)
Functional groups that are polar but will not H-bond will have properties…
in between aqueous and lipid loving
Functional groups that are not polar, will interact well with ________
lipids
For an alcohol group, if there are ________ carbons per alcohol group the molecule will be water soluble
3 or less
Butyl alcohol has _________ and is marginally water soluble
4 carbons
Pentanol is not water soluble due to __________
5 carbons
The ability of _____ to solubilize 4 carbons can be extended to other functional groups to estimate their contribution to aqueous solubility
alcohol
When the amount of carbons solubilized is less than the total amount of carbons present…
it would not be water soluble
When the amount of carbons solubilized is equal to the total amount of carbons present…
it is on the borderline of being water soluble
What are the two things that enantiomers differ in
direction they rotate polarized light
how they interact with other chiral compounds
Equation for how to find number of isomers
of isomers = 2^n
n = # of stereoisomers
