Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the formation thermodynamics of baicalein(BE)-nicotinamide(NCT)cocrystals in three solvents including ethyl acetate, acetone and trichloromethane. The solubilities of BE, NCT and BE-NCT in the above solvents at 25 °C were measured. Ternary phase diagrams(TPDs)of the BE-NCT-solvent systems were established. The non-linear fitting equation according to 1 ∶1 complexation mechanism of BE-NCT cocrystals demonstrated a good correlation between calculated and experiment data. ΔG⁰< 0 suggested that BE-NCT cocrystal formation was a spontaneous process. Among the organic solvents studied, the absolute value of ΔG⁰ in trichloromethane was significantly lower than that in the other two solvents. In addition, the cocrystallization zone in trichloromethane was far away from stoichiometric line. This study provides a theoretical foundation for solvent selection and preparation-condition optimization of BE-NCT cocrystals.
