Abstract
Valacyclovir hydrochloride is a kind of antiviral drug and has several crystal forms including sesquihydrate (SH), anhydrous Form I, and Form II. Here, the dehydration process of SH by heat drying is investigated by powder X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry analysis, vapor sorption analysis, and ReactRaman spectroscopy, and the dehydration and absorption of crystal water are revealed. The transformations of SH to Form I, Form II to Form I, and SH to Form II in aqueous ethanol suspension are monitored by ReactRaman spectroscopy, and the mechanisms of two different transition processes are defined through the analysis of ReactRaman spectra. The crystal transformation relationship of the mentioned forms is established.
期刊介绍:
The journal Crystal Research and Technology is a pure online Journal (since 2012).
Crystal Research and Technology is an international journal examining all aspects of research within experimental, industrial, and theoretical crystallography. The journal covers the relevant aspects of
-crystal growth techniques and phenomena (including bulk growth, thin films)
-modern crystalline materials (e.g. smart materials, nanocrystals, quasicrystals, liquid crystals)
-industrial crystallisation
-application of crystals in materials science, electronics, data storage, and optics
-experimental, simulation and theoretical studies of the structural properties of crystals
-crystallographic computing
