Fast Dissolving Curcumin Cocrystals
Abstract
Curcumin is the principal curcuminoid of the popular Indian spice turmeric. Despite the diverse pharmacological activities of this bioactive phenol, its application as a drug is severely limited by poor aqueous solubility. We report novel cocrystals of curcumin ( 1 ) with resorcinol and pyrogallol obtained by liquid-assisted grinding. Curcumin–resorcinol ( 1a ) (1:1) and curcumin–pyrogallol ( 1b ) (1:1) were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, FT-IR, FT-Raman, and solid-state 13 C NMR spectroscopy. The 1:1 cocrystal stoichiometry is sustained by O–H···O hydrogen bonds between the phenolic OH groups of the coformers to the carbonyl group of curcumin. The melting point of the cocrystals is in between that of curcumin and the coformer and the lower melting cocrystal 1b is more soluble than higher melting 1a . The dissolution rates of curcumin–resorcinol ( 1a ) and curcumin–pyrogallol ( 1b ) in 40% EtOH–water are ∼5 and ∼12 times faster than that for curcumin.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
