Open Access research with a European policy impact...

The Strathprints institutional repository is a digital archive of University of Strathclyde's Open Access research outputs. Strathprints provides access to thousands of Open Access research papers by Strathclyde researchers, including by researchers from the European Policies Research Centre (EPRC).

EPRC is a leading institute in Europe for comparative research on public policy, with a particular focus on regional development policies. Spanning 30 European countries, EPRC research programmes have a strong emphasis on applied research and knowledge exchange, including the provision of policy advice to EU institutions and national and sub-national government authorities throughout Europe.

Abstract

Two novel sodium salts of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin were crystallised at pressures of 0.25 and 0.6 GPa and subsequently recovered to ambient pressure. The structures are the first reported examples of ciprofloxacin chelating a Group IA monovalent cation. Ambient-pressure crystallisation of the same solution used for high-pressure experiments, yielded crystals of the known hexahydrate. In a parallel study, the previously unknown structure of anhydrous ciprofloxacin was determined from powder diffraction data. The structures are described and compared using the XPac method.
