COCRYSTALS OF TRIGONELLINE
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to new crystalline compounds containing Trigoneline and a cocrystal former. More particularly the present invention relates to Trigonelline cocrystals, therapeutic uses of the Trigoneline cocrystals and pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Trigonelline is an alkaloid. It is a zwitterion formed by the methylation of nitrogen atom of Niacin (Vitamin B3). Trigonelline is a product of nicacin metabolism having the following structure

Trigonelline occurs in many plants. It has been isolated from fenugreek seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum, hence the name), garden peas, hemp seed, oats, potatoes, Stachys species, dahlia, Strophanthus species and Dichapetalum
cymosum., Holtz, Kutscher and Theilmann have recorded its presence in a number of animals.
Trigonelline is also found in coffee. Higher levels of trigonelline is found in arabica coffee.
Trigonelline crystallizes as a monohydrate from alcohol in hygroscopic prisms (m.p. 130 °C or 218 °C. It is readily soluble in water or warm alcohol, less so in cold alcohol, and slightly so in chloroform or ether. The salts crystallize well, the monohydrochloride, in leaflets, sparingly soluble in dry alcohol. The picrate forms shining prisms (m.p. 198-200 °C) soluble in water but sparingly soluble in dry alcohol or ether.
The trigonelline in coffee is the precursor of NMP (n-methylium pyridine) which is currently reported as a diabetes active principle in WO 2010/055170 Al . Trigonelline is further known in cosmetic applications, as disclosed in DE 3915535
Al.
WO 2010/054818 Al discloses a method of preparation a NMP-containing extract starting with roasting trigonelline containing plant material (as e.g. coffee,). The roasted trigonelline containing organic material is then treated with water to obtain an aqueous extract. The latter is then treated with polyamide and subjected to cation exchange chromatography to obtain a NMP-containing extract. Due to the use of polyamide this production method is not exclusively natural.
US 8,772,230 B2 discloses the use of niacin and/ or trigonelline compounds to increase muscle weight during periods of activity or to inhibit muscle loss during periods of inactivity.
US 7,141,254 B2 discloses a synergistic composition for the treatment of diabetes in a subject in need thereof, said composition-comprising Trigonelline of concentration ranging between 20 to 30%, amino acids of concentration ranging between 20 to 60%, and soluble fibre of concentration ranging between 10 to 60%, optionally along with pharmaceutically acceptable additives, a process thereof and also, a method of treating diabetes.
Though a number of pharmacological studies have been conducted on Trigonelline, but, very little investigation on the behaviour of Trigonelline in the solid state has appeared in the open literature, and thus its solid-state properties appear not to have been thoroughly studied to date.
Cocrystals have generated tremendous interest in pharmaceutical research and development because of the potential to customize physicochemical properties of the solid while maintaining the chemical integrity of the drug. Cocrystals are part of a broader class of multicomponent crystals, where two or more molecules (commonly referred to as drug and coformer) populate a homogeneous crystalline lattice in a welldefined stoichiometry. What distinguishes cocrystals from other types of multicomponent crystals such as salts and solvates is that drug and coformer are solids at ambient temperature and that the intermolecular interactions are nonionic in nature. The diversity of solid forms that can be generated from a drug greatly increases through cocrystallization; the physicochemical properties of the cocrystals can vary depending on the characteristics of its constituent molecules. Pharmaceutically relevant properties that can change via cocrystallization include but are not limited to solubility, dissolution, moisture uptake, chemical stability, mechanical properties, and bioavailability. Of these properties, solubility is the most widely appreciated in the literature. Cocrystals have the potential to address the solubility limitations of poorly soluble pharmaceutical compounds, a problem which can pose a serious challenge to successful formulation.
The main advantage of cocrystals is the ability to generate a variety of solid forms of a drug that have physicochemical properties distinct from the solid cocrystal components. Such properties include but are not limited to solubility, dissolution, bioavailability, hygroscopicity, hydrate/solvate formation, crystal morphology, fusion properties, chemical and thermal stability, and mechanical properties. These properties can directly or indirectly affect the suitability of a particular API as a pharmaceutical product.
A cocrystal of a drug (an active nutraceutical ingredient or an active pharmaceutical ingredient) is a distinct chemical composition between the drug and coformer, and generally possesses distinct crystallographic and spectroscopic properties when compared to those of the drug and coformer individually. Unlike salts, which possess a neutral net charge, but which are comprised of charge-balanced components, cocrystals are comprised of neutral species. Thus, unlike a salt, one cannot determine the stoichiometry of a cocrystal based on charge balance. Indeed, one can often obtain cocrystals having stoichiometric ratios of drug to coformer of greater than or less than 1: 1. The stoichiometric ratio of an API to coformer is a generally unpredictable feature of a cocrystal.
To the best of the inventors' knowledge, no cocrystals of Trigonelline have been reported in the open/academic or patent literature. In fact, the field of pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals cocrystals appears to be a relatively unexplored landscape.

The dissolution may be carried out at temperatures suitable for complete dissolution of the components, without affecting its quality.
Any physical form of Trigonelline, such as crystalline, amorphous, and their mixtures may be utilized for providing the solution
Suitable anti-solvents that may be used include, but are not limited to: ethers such as diethyl ether, dimethyl ether, diisopropylether, tetrahydrofuran, 1 ,4-dioxane, and the like; hydrocarbons such as n-hexane, n-heptane, cyclohexane, toluene, xylene, acetone and the like; and mixtures thereof.
The anti-solvent may be added to the solution comprising Trigonelline and a co- crystal former at temperatures ranging from about 20°C to about 60°C, or at room temperature.
