Caracterização térmica e desenvolvimento de método analítico para determinação simultânea das guanilhidrazonas WE005, WE015 e WE016

Abstract

Guanilhidrazonas substances are widely studied for presenting great biological potential, especially antitumor activity, antimicrobial, antimalarial, antifungal and anti-hypertensive. This study assessed the synthetic guanylhydrazones WE005 ((2-[(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methylene]-hydrazinecarboximidamide),WE015 (2(phenylmethylene)-hydrazinecarboximidamide) and WE016 (4-[[2-(aminoiminomethyl) hydrazinylidene]methyl]-benzoic acid methyl ester) in order to characterize and develop analytical method using thermal techniques (DSC and TGA), spectroscopic (FTIR ) and microscopic (SEM) and chromatographic (UHPLC / DAD). The characterization by DSC and TG were used the following heating rates: 2.5; 5.0; 10 and 20 º C / min in a nitrogen atmosphere (50 ml / min) to 500 ° C (DSC) and 900 ° C (TG). The kinetic study was done by Ozawa method. The analysis in the mid-infrared region of molecules was performed at room temperature and the melting temperature. The spectra were compared using Pearson's correlation using ad hoc algorithm. For the development of the analytical method was used factorial design. Thermal techniques have been able to characterize the molecules through their phase transitions and steps in the thermogravimetric curve, and telling about the thermal stability, with an initial decomposition temperature of about 240 ° C. The kinetic study showed that the speed of the thermal decomposition of molecules has zero order and that the WE016 sample showed higher activation energy. Infrared spectra according to the Pearson correlation showed significant changes between the room temperature and the melting range of the spectrum. The factorial design through surface-response graphs and Pareto showed that the most influential variable on all dependent variables was the length of the column. The best method for the separation of guanylhydrazones this study was: C18 column (50 mm x 2 mm tp 2.2 microns), mobile phase MeOH: H2 O: TEA 40: 60: 0.1, pH 3.5 adjusted with acetic acid; flow rate of 0.2 ml / min, oven temperature 30 ° C. The final concentration of guanylhydrazones was 30 mg / mL and were detected simultaneously by a wavelength of 290 nm. A rapid method was developed to separate guanylhydrazones WE005, WE015 and WE016 by CLUE / DAD. Factorial design was a useful tool for the rational development of the method.
