NAME: SAMER AZIZ ROLL NO: DE-068 SUBJECT: PHYSICAL PHARMACY HYDROLYSIS
HYDROLYSIS: DEFINATION : the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water is called hydrolysis TYPES ON THE BASIS OF CHEMICAL REACTION: Ionic hydrolysis Molecular hydrolysis
Ionic hydrolysis It occur when the salt of weak acids and weak bases interact with water to give either alkaline or acidic solution Molecular hydrolysis: It is much slower and irreversible process it is catalized by hydrogen or hydroxyl ion e.g. the local anesthetics
TYPES OF HYDROLYSIS:(ON THE BASIS OF DRUG DEGRADATION) ESTER HYDROLYSIS : An acid-catalyzed ester hydrolysis involves the breakdown of an ester into its corresponding carboxylic acid and alcohol. This is done by the addition of a water molecule, using an acid as a catalyst .
EXAMPLE OF DRUGS WHICH UNDER GO ESTER HYDROLYSIS: Tetracaine Atropine Physostigmine Procaine Asprin
AMIDE HYDROLYSIS: when amides are hydrolysed in the presence of dilute acids such as dilute hydrochloric acid. The acid acts as a catalyst for the reaction between the amide and water .
EXAMPLES OF DRUGS WHICH UNDERGO AMIDE HYDROLYSIS : Dibucaine Ergometrine Chloramphenicol Niacinamide Barbiturates
RING HYDROLYSIS: Hydrolytic reactions in certain drugs proceed by ring cleavage with subsequent attack by hydrogen or hydroxyl ions .
DRUGS UNDER GO RING HYDROLYSIS: Bezodiazepines ( such as nitrazepam and chlordiazepoxide ) Penicillin cephalosporins
