Abbvie – a BioPharmaceutical R&D Company performs an insightful research using Tridiagonal Solutions Flagship product MixIT on the “Investigation of Variable Impurity Profile from a Mitsunobu Reaction Using Insights from Kinetic Modeling, Multi-Phase Interactions, and Computational Fluid Dynamics”

San Antonio, TX, USA, April 11, 2016
Samrat Mukherjee, Shailendra Bordawekar, and Nandkishor Nere from Process Research and Development, Abbvie Inc; USA published an article on “Investigation of Variable Impurity Profile from a Mitsunobu Reaction Using Insights from Kinetic Modeling, Multi-Phase Interactions, and Computational Fluid Dynamics” in I&EC Research Journal. This investigative article showcases how Tridiagonal Solutions – MixIT software solution performed Computational fluid dynamics simulation of the mixing patterns and a series of proof-of-concept experiments to establish the influence of mixing intensity and cocrystal formation on the level of impurity formed. A drug substance intermediate synthesis involving a Mitsunobu coupling reaction using triphenylphosphine and diisopropyl azodicarboxylate was investigated to understand the variable levels of an impurity.

MixIT played a crucial role in identifying well characterized vessels with good mixing capability to control the nucleation of TPPO – H2DIAD cocrystal formation. The CFD Simulations for 1L reactor with and without baffles provided significant insights into the local mixing pattern which significantly influences the nucleation characteristics.
