Here, we report the crystallization, structure determination and dissolution behaviour of the δ-polymorph of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin (IMC), a poorly studied polymorph first mentioned almost 50 years ago [4] and whose structure has remained hitherto unknown. δ-IMC shows a significantly enhanced dissolution rate compared with the more common and thoroughly studied α- and γ-polymorphs, potentially connected with an increased bioavailability.

Abstract

Here, we report the crystallization, structure determination and dissolution behaviour of the δ-polymorph of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin (IMC), a poorly studied polymorph first mentioned almost 50 years ago [4] and whose structure has remained hitherto unknown. δ-IMC shows a significantly enhanced dissolution rate compared with the more common and thoroughly studied α- and γ-polymorphs, potentially connected with an increased bioavailability.
