AKASH JAIN 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to my advisor, Dr Samuel Yalkowsky, for providing me the opportunity and financial support to earn my doctoral degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences. I sincerely thank him for his continued guidance, encouragement and mentorship over the years I spent at the University of Arizona. I will cherish his scientific values, virtues and philosophies for life. I would like to thank my major committee members, Dr Michael Mayersohn and Dr Paul Myrdal, for their guidance and comments in not only preparing this dissertation but for my entire period of education at the University of Arizona. I would also like to express my gratitude to my minor committee members, Dr Srini Ragahvan and Dr Neal Armstrong, for dedicating their time to serve on my committee. I would like to thank my past and present colleagues at the University of Arizona for being there for me whenever I needed them. I will inherit all the good times we have had working together and I am pleased to have made some friends for life. I would like to thank my professors back in India, especially Dr T.R.Saini and Dr. S.C. Chaturvedi, for encouraging me to pursue a doctoral degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences. At last, I would like to thank my family: my parents and sister for their love and inspiration, my fiancée Bhumika for all her love and patience and her family for their care and support. 5 DEDICATION To my parents and Bhumika 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES……………………………………………………………………….9 LIST OF TABLES……………………………………………………………………….10 ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………………………...11 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………..12 CHAPTER 2: ENTHALPY OF MELTING……………………………………………..19 INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………………….19 DATA…………………………………………………………………………………21 MODEL……………………………………………………………………………….22 Group Definition…………………………………………………………………....22 Group Environment………………………………………………………………....23 Proximity Factors…………………………………………………………………...24 METHODS……………………………………………………………………………26 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION………………………………………………………26 SUMMARY…………………………………………………………………………...36 CHAPTER 3: ENTROPY OF MELTING……………………………………………….38 INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………………….38 DATA………………………………………………………………………………....40 METHODS……………………………..……………………………………………..40 Molecular Rotational Symmetry Number…………………………………………..40 Molecular Flexibility Number……………………………………………………...42 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS – Continued RESULTS AND DISCUSSION………………………………………………………44 SUMMARY….………………………………………………………………………..48 CHAPTER 4: MELTING POINTS………………………………………………………49 INTRODUCTION……………………………………………………………………..49 DATA………………………………………………………………………………… 52 METHODS………………………………………………………………………….... 52 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION……………………………………………………… 53 SUMMARY…………………………………………………………………………... 60 CHAPTER 5: COMPARISON OF TWO METHODS FOR PREDICTING MELTING POINTS…………………………………………………………………………………..61 INTRODUCTION……………………………………………………………………..61 DATA………………………………………………………………………………….61 METHODS………………………………………………………………………….....61 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION……………………………………………………… 63 SUMMARY…………………………………………………………………………... 66 APPENDIX A.
