DescriptionThe present invention relates to compositions of psilocin and methods for providing stable compositions of psilocin as well as therapeutic indications.
Psilocybin (4-phosphoryloxy-N, N-dimethyltryptamine) is a psychedelic substance found in several species of psychedelic mushrooms (Psilocybe) which cause âmind-alteringâ effects in humans (Hofmann et al., 1959; Nichols, 2004). Isolated in 1958 by A. Hofmann, psilocybin is a prodrug that must undergo biotransformation to the active drug psilocin. Psilocin's psychoactive effects are predominately mediated via 5-HT2A receptors (Rickli et al., 2016; Vollenweider et al., 1998). Recently, psilocybin has been repurposed and investigated for the treatment of cluster headache, obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety and depression, and in alcohol use disorder (Bogenschutz et al., 2018; Carhart-Harris et al., 2017; Griffiths et al., 2016; Grob et al., 2011; Johnson et al., 2017; Moreno et al., 2006; Ross et al., 2016; Sewell et al., 2006).
Psilocybin is both difficult and costly to manufacture. Shirota, et al. describe producing psilocybin from 4-hydroxyindole, which costs over $200 per gram as a starting substrate. Due to this difficulty, which is largely driven by the final manufacturing step to convert psilocin to psilocybin, scalability of the synthetic process to commercial scale is also uncertain. Other groups in Denmark have tried making psilocybin with yeast, however, while their methods eliminate the need for 4-hydroxyindole, their product yield is poor because they generate large amounts of psilocin (4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine), the metabolite of psilocybin.
Psilocybin is a prodrug that requires biotransformation to psilocin mediated by alkaline phosphatases in order to have pharmacological activity. Psilocybin is both not permeable in intestinal epithelia (Eivindvik and Rasmussen, 1989) or CNS. Psilocin itself is not used in medical treatment because it is known to have poor stability due to photodegradation and oxidation in both ambient (i.e., exposed to air) and aqueous environments. Lenz, et al. (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2020, 59, 1450-1454) report that upon injury, psychotropic psilocybin-producing mushrooms instantly develop an intense blue color and two enzymes from Psilocybe cubensis carry out a two-step cascade to prepare psilocybin for oxidative oligomerization that leads to blue products. The phosphatase PsiP removes the 4-O-phosphate group to yield psilocin, while PsiL oxidizes its 4-hydroxy group. The PsiL reaction was monitored by in situ 13C NMR spectroscopy, which indicated that oxidative coupling of psilocyl residues occurs primarily via C-5. MS and IR spectroscopy indicated the formation of a heterogeneous mixture of preferentially psilocyl 3- to 13-mers and suggest multiple oligomerization routes, depending on oxidative power and substrate concentration.
Anastos 2006 describe improvements in psilocin sample stability when protected from light, however, there is still a 50% peak loss over 14 days which is not considered stable and is not viable for a pharmaceutical composition or drug product. Psilocin in biological samples (such as blood or urine) is also unstable and is degraded by both non-enzymatic and enzymatic processes (Lindenblatt 1998; Hasler 1997; Martin 2012). Improvements in psilocin stability in biological samples have been achieved by addition of 25 mM ascorbic acid, though greater than 5% of psilocin can still be lost in these samples suggesting this procedure is not sufficient to stabilize psilocin (Brown 2017; Hasler 1997). Others have tried to find other stable versions of psilocin, such as by synthesizing psilocin glucuronide which provides a greater long-term stability after six months in in deep frozen serum and urine samples than psilocin, and a short-term stability for one week in whole blood at room temperature and in deep frozen samples better than that of psilocin (Martin et al., 2014). Psilocin glucuronide is not suitable as a drug formulation as it is unlikely to be able to permeate the blood-brain barrier and is likely to be rapidly eliminated in urine.
As a result of the required biotransformation of psilocybin to psilocin, the pharmacokinetics of psilocin are highly variable following administration of psilocybin by multiple routes of administration. In fact, even following intravenous administration of psilocybin, maximum plasma concentrations of psilocin can vary over three-fold between individuals, resulting in an increased risk of adverse effects or inability to achieve efficacious concentrations (Hasler et al., 1997).
Others have sought to stabilize psilocin in biological samples (i.e., plasma, urine) to enhance the stability of these samples prior to analysis through the addition of ascorbic acid, freeze drying and use of ultracold storage conditions (Brown et al., 2017; Hasler et al., 1997; Martin et al., 2012); however, these attempts were only partially successful at stabilizing psilocin in biological samples with psilocin continuing to demonstrate significant instability in biological samples. No prior art exists disclosing an attempt to stabilize psilocin in a pharmaceutical formulation for administration to humans or other animals.
There remains a need for methods of increasing the stability of psilocin and using psilocin in treatments as a more efficacious, cost effective, and robust therapeutic, especially for neurological, psychological, substance use and pain disorders.
The present invention provides for a composition of psilocin that is stable including at least one agent or chemical modification that provides enhanced stability.

The present invention provides for compositions of psilocin that are stable by various mechanisms. These compositions enable the administration of the active drug psilocin, which does not require biotransformation to be active, instead of the prodrug (psilocybin) that does not have pharmacological activity in vivo and does require biotransformation into psilocin to provide its effects. Use of psilocin instead of psilocybin can provide reduced inter-subject variability in exposure to the active molecule psilocin (Hasler 1997 shows that even after IV administration of psilocybin, inter-individual variability of psilocin concentrations was over 3-fold, whereas direct psilocin administration does not result in such variability, likely due to alkaline phosphatase metabolism and glucuronidation as well as other mechanisms). Ultimately, these advantages of psilocin result in enhanced efficacy and reduced risk of side effects compared to use of psilocybin.
âStableâ as used herein, can refer to shelf-stable (i.e., stable at ambient room temperature and humidity), as well as stable in cold storage or storage under inert conditions. For example, shelf-life stability can be 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or longer.
The composition can include at least one agent that provides enhanced stability such as a photostabilizing agent or an antioxidant. Combinations of these agents can also be used (Anastos 2006 states that both light and air can be necessary for degradation of psilocin).
Photostabilizing agents are used in products that can degrade during manufacturing, storage, or administration because they are sensitive to light and undergo physical or chemical changes due to light. Anastos 2006 has stated that a likely explanation for the degradation of psilocin or psilocybin by light is the dimerization and/or trimerization of the indoles, which is common under acidic conditions. For indoles under acidic conditions, protonation at C3 produces the 3H-indolium cation as the major species; this has been confirmed in solution spectroscopically. 3H-indolium cations are electrophilic and will react with unprotonated indole to form acid dimerisation and trimerisation products. The photostabilizing agent can be, but is not limited to, excipients with spectral overlay (such as Eusolex 9020 [4-(t-butyl-4â²-methoxydibenzoyl)-methane], riboflavin, UV absorbers such as 3-(4-methylbenzylidene)-camphor (Eusolex 6300), or α-(o-tolylazo)-β-naphthylamine), food colorants, drug products with opacifying/coating agents (such as yellow, red, and black iron oxides incorporated in tablets, use of opaque blisters and capsules, a dye with an absorption spectrum similar to that of psilocin, use of a reflecting pigment such as titanium dioxide, addition of UV and visible absorbing opacifiers, or a film coating with agents possessing light absorption or reflection properties), or combinations thereof.
Antioxidants can be used to delay or inhibit oxidation of a compound by being preferentially oxidized or blocking an oxidative chain reaction. The antioxidant can be, but is not limited to, ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol acetate, acetone sodium bisulfite, acetylcysteine, ascorbyl palmitate, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), cysteine, cysteine hydrochloride, d-α-tocopherol natural, d-α-tocopherol synthetic, dithiothreitol, monothioglycerol, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, propyl gallate, sodium bisulfite, sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate, sodium metabisulfite, sodium sulfite, sodium thiosulfate, thiourea, or combinations thereof.
Any of the photostabilizing or antioxidant agents can also work synergistically with the psilocin or provide additional beneficial effects. For example, prebiotics such as lactulose provide antioxidant effects as well as other advantageous effects in pain treatment.
The composition can also use chemical modifications to provide stability, such as pharmaceutical salts or polymorphs. Pharmaceutical salts can be formed with any cations of aluminum, arginine, benzathine, calcium, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethanolamine, ethylenediamine, histidine, lithium, lysine, magnesium, meglumine, potassium, procaine, sodium, triethylamine, or zinc. Pharmaceutical salts can also be formed with any anions of acetate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate, bitartrate, bromide, camsylate, carbonate, chloride, citrate, decanoate, edetate, estolate, esylate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glutamate, glycolate, glycollylarsanilate, hexanoate, hexylresorcinate, hydrabamine, hydroxynaphthoate, iodide, isethionate, isethionate, lactate, lactobionate, malate, maleate, mandelate, mesylate, methylbromide, methylnitrate, methylsulfate, mucate, napsylate, nitrate, octanoate, oleate, pamoate, pantothenate, phosphate, polygalacturonate, propionate, salicylate, stearate, subacetate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, teoclate, tosylate, or triethiodide. Deuterated psilocin can be used to provide stability in which one or more hydrogen atoms in psilocin have been replaced with deuterium atoms.
The composition can also be formed as an acid such as, but not limited to, naphthalene-1,5-disulfonic acid, sulfuric acid, ethane 1,2-disulfonic acid, naphthalene-2-sulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, maleic acid, phosphoric acid, ethanesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, glutamic, malonic, gentisic, salicylic, citric, malic (including L-malic, D-malic, and DL-malic), lactic (including L-lactic, D-lactic, and DL-lactic), benzoic, succinic, glutaric, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, oxalic, tartaric (including L-tartaric. D-tartaric, and DL-tartaric), fumaric, acetic, L-aspartic, galactaric, glycoloic, hippuric, gluconic, sebacic, adipic, or ascorbic (including L-ascorbic, D-ascorbic, and DL-ascorbic).
The composition can also be stored in any suitable way to prevent degradation from heat, light, air, and/or water.
The present invention therefore provides for a method making stable psilocin, by providing a formulation of psilocin including at least one agent that provides enhanced stability.
The composition can be in a liquid dosage form such as, but not limited to, suspensions, solutions, emulsions, elixirs, tinctures, sprays, syrups, gels, magmas, liniments, lotions, ointments, pastes, drops, or inhalants. The composition can be in a solid dosage form such as, but not limited to, capsules, films, lozenge, patch, powder, tablets, pellets, pills, or troches.
The composition can be administered by any route of administration, such as, but not limited to, oral, intravenous (IV) injection, intramuscular (IM) injection, subcutaneous (SC) injection, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, intratonsillar, intrathecal, infusion, intranasal, sublingual, buccal, rectal, vaginal, ocular, inhalation, nebulization, topical, transdermal, or transmucosal.
Liposome formulations can be used with the composition, including conventional liposomes, PEGylated liposomes, ligand-targeted liposomes, and therapeutic liposomes. Liposomes are phospholipid vesicles of one or more concentric lipid bilayers enclosing discrete aqueous spaces that can encapsulate hydrophilic or hydrophobic drug compositions. Conventional liposomes include a lipid bilayer that can be composed of cationic, anionic, or neutral (phospho)lipids and cholesterol, which encloses an aqueous volume. PEGylated liposomes utilize polyethylene glycol (PEG) to improve liposome stability and enhance their circulation times in the blood. Ligand-targeted liposomes are used for site-specific delivery of drugs to designated cell types or organs in vivo, which selectively express or over-express specific ligands (e.g., receptors or cell adhesion molecules) at the site of disease.
Nanoparticle formulations can also be used with the composition to improve the stability and solubility of the composition, promote transport across membranes, and prolong circulation times to increase safety and efficacy. The nanoparticle formulations can include lipid-based nanoparticles of spherical platforms including at least one lipid bilayer surrounding at least one internal aqueous compartment, which are usually made of phospholipids. Lipid nanoparticles can be used which are made of cationic or ionizable lipids that complex with negatively charged genetic material and aid endosomal escape, phospholipids for particle structure, cholesterol for stability and membrane fusion, and PEGylated lipids to improve stability and circulation. Polymeric nanoparticles (including nanocapsules and nanospheres) can be used made from natural or synthetic materials, monomers, or preformed polymers, and the composition can be encapsulated within the core, entrapped in the polymer matrix, chemically conjugated to the polymer, or bound to the surface. Inorganic nanoparticles using gold, iron, or silica can be used.
The compound of the present invention is administered and dosed in accordance with good medical practice, considering the clinical condition of the individual patient, the site and method of administration, scheduling of administration, patient age, sex, body weight and other factors known to medical practitioners. The pharmaceutically âeffective amountâ for purposes herein is thus determined by such considerations as are known in the art. The amount must be effective to achieve improvement including but not limited to improved survival rate or more rapid recovery, or improvement or elimination of symptoms and other indicators as are selected as appropriate measures by those skilled in the art.
The patient being treated is a warm-blooded animal and, in particular, mammals including man. The pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, adjuvants, and vehicles as well as implant carriers generally refer to inert, non-toxic solid or liquid fillers, diluents or encapsulating material not reacting with the active ingredients of the invention.
The doses can be single doses or multiple doses over a period of several days. The treatment generally has a length proportional to the length of the disease process and drug effectiveness and the patient species being treated.
When administering the compound of the present invention parenterally, it will generally be formulated in a unit dosage injectable form (solution, suspension, emulsion). The pharmaceutical formulations suitable for injection include sterile aqueous solutions, other solutions, or dispersions and sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersing medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils.
Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants. Nonaqueous vehicles such a cottonseed oil, sesame oil, olive oil, soybean oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, or peanut oil and esters, such as isopropyl myristate, may also be used as solvent systems for compound compositions. Additionally, various additives which enhance the stability, sterility, and isotonicity of the compositions, including antimicrobial preservatives, antioxidants, chelating agents, and buffers, can be added. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be ensured by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, and the like. In many cases, it will be desirable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride, and the like. Prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form can be brought about by the use of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin. According to the present invention, however, any vehicle, diluent, or additive used would have to be compatible with the compounds.
Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by incorporating the compounds utilized in practicing the present invention in the required amount of the appropriate solvent with various of the other ingredients, as desired.
A pharmacological formulation of the present invention can be administered to the patient in an injectable formulation containing any compatible carrier, such as various vehicle, adjuvants, additives, and diluents; or the compounds utilized in the present invention can be administered parenterally to the patient in the form of slow-release subcutaneous implants or targeted delivery systems such as monoclonal antibodies, vectored delivery, iontophoretic, polymer matrices, liposomes, and microspheres. Examples of delivery systems useful in the present invention include: U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,225,182; 5,169,383; 5,167,616; 4,959,217; 4,925,678; 4,487,603; 4,486,194; 4,447,233; 4,447,224; 4,439,196; and 4,475,196. Many other such implants, delivery systems, and modules are well known to those skilled in the art.
Psilocin acts as a 5HT2A, 5HT2C, and 5HT1A agonist or partial agonist and can be administered for any condition or disease that psilocybin is administered for. The condition or disease can include, but is not limited to, anxiety disorders (including anxiety in advanced stage illness e.g. cancer, as well as generalized anxiety disorder), depression (including post partum depression, major depressive disorder and treatment-resistant depression), headache disorder (including cluster headaches and migraine headache), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), personality disorders (including conduct disorder), stress disorders (including adjustment disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder), drug disorders (including alcohol dependence, nicotine dependence, opioid dependence, cocaine dependence, methamphetamine dependence), other addictions (including gambling disorder, eating disorder, and body dysmorphic disorder), pain, neurodegenerative disorders (such as dementia, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease), autism spectrum disorder, eating disorders, or neurological disorders (such as stroke).
Therefore, the present invention provides for a method of treatment of a disease or condition, by administering a composition of psilocin that is stable, and treating the disease or condition.
The invention is further described in detail by reference to the following experimental examples. These examples are provided for the purpose of illustration only and are not intended to be limiting unless otherwise specified. Thus, the invention should in no way be construed as being limited to the following examples, but rather, should be construed to encompass any and all variations which become evident as a result of the teaching provided herein.
The study design is shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B . The study was conducted in male/female CD rats. Test articles were formulated fresh in PBS. Psilocin and Psilocybin were administered IV and PO. Plasma samples were analyzed for psilocin and psilocybin (group 2).
FIGS. 2A-2C show PK characteristics of psilocin and psilocybin after IV dosing. FIGS. 3A-3B show PK characteristics of psilocin and psilocybin after PO dosing. FIGS. 4A-4B show psilocin and psilocybin after IV and PO dose. FIG. 5 shows dosing solution analyses.
IV administration of psilocin (free base) and psilocybin results in almost identical PK values, including Cmax and AUC and Cl. After IV administration, psilocybin is detectable in plasma for 15 minutes. PO administration of psilocin and psilocybin results in similar PK values, including tmax, t1/2, AUC, and bioavailability. Measured Cmax after administration of psilocybin is higher (313.7 mg/ml) compared to 152.7 ng/ml after administration of psilocin. Low stability of psilocin in aqueous solutions could be a contributing factor to observed differences. Analytical characterization of dosing solutions used in the PK study, after 2 hours on the bench at room temperature demonstrates that psilocin solutions have approximately 30%-70% degradation, depending on the concentration. Stabilization of psilocin provides viable, stable formulations and lower variability of dosing solutions, resulting in a better PK, such as compared to psilocybin.
One sample of psilocin tartrate (lot 16782-15C) was submitted for optical microscopy (OM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic vapor sorption/desorption (DVS), and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The chemical structure of psilocin is displayed in FIG. 6 . The data in this EXAMPLE shows that psilocin tartrate is a stable crystalline solid.
FIGS. 7A-7F show the OM images for psilocin tartrate lot 16782-15C. The sample contains particles that are agglomerates in various shapes. The agglomerates range in length from Ë20 to 50 micrometers. Images of the agglomerates that were obtained with crossed polars in place show birefringence with extinction indicating that these particles are crystalline.
The acquired XRPD patterns for psilocin tartrate, initial material, and post DVS analysis, are presented in FIGS. 8 and 9 , respectively. Based upon the observance of sharp and discrete peaks, the materials are crystalline in nature. A stack plot of the two XRPD patterns is presented in FIG. 10 . A visual comparison of the patterns shows that the patterns correspond indicating the same form or mixture of forms is in each material. A list of diffraction peaks for psilocin tartrate lot 16782-15C is displayed in TABLE 1.
The annotated DSC thermogram for the psilocin tartrate lot 16782-15C is presented in FIG. 11 . The DSC thermogram displays an endothermic event at 161.22° C., which appears to be a melting event. The thermal event starting at Ë180° C. is most likely decomposition as it is consistent with the rapid weight loss observed in the TGA.
The annotated TGA curve for the psilocin tartrate lot 16782-15C is presented in FIG. 12 . The first derivative curve has been added to help determine the endpoint of the weight losses. The first minimal weight loss event, 0.76% up to 160° C., is likely related to volatile loss. The more rapid weight loss event from 160° C. to Ë297° C. of 45.65% appears to be decomposition.
The weight versus time and percent weight change versus percent relative humidity (RH) curves from the DVS analysis of psilocin tartrate lot 16782-15C is presented in FIGS. 13 and 14 , respectively. The data show that the sample takes up water suggesting that the sample is moderately hygroscopic and exhibited some hysteresis between the 80-95% RH range. The results are listed in TABLE 2.
The 1H NMR spectrum (NMR1-1978) of psilocin tartrate lot 16782-15C is shown in FIG. 15 with expanded plots in FIGS. 16-19 . The 1H chemical shift assignments for psilocin tartrate (as labeled in FIG. 6 ) were performed and indicated in each spectrum except for unidentified 1H signals, which may be attributed to impurities in the sample.
The samples were prepared in a silicon low background holder using light manual pressure to keep the sample surface flat and level with the reference surface of the sample holder. The single crystal Si low background holder has a circular recess (10 mm diameter and about 0.2 mm depth) that holds the sample.
The Rigaku Smart-Lab diffraction system used was configured for Bragg-Brentano reflection geometry using a line source X-ray beam. The Bragg-Brentano geometry was controlled by passive divergence and receiving slits with the sample itself acting as the focusing component for the optics. Data collection parameters are shown in TABLE 3.
DSC analysis was performed using a TA Instruments Discovery Series 2500 DSC instrument. The instrument temperature calibration was performed using indium. The DSC cell was kept under a nitrogen purge of Ë50 mL per minute during the analysis. The sample was placed in a standard crimped T-zero aluminum pan covered with a lid. The sample was heated from ambient to 300° C. at a rate of 10° C. per minute. The instrument was controlled with, and software and the data were analyzed with TRIOS v. 5.0.0.44608.
TG analysis was performed using a TA Instruments Discovery 5500 TGA instrument. The instrument balance was calibrated using class M weights and temperature calibration was performed by the measurement of the Curie point of Alumel® and Nickel. The nitrogen purge was about 10 mL per minute at the balance and about 25 mL per minute at the furnace. Approximately 2 mg of the sample was loaded onto tared, platinum sample pan. During analysis, the sample was heated from ambient temperature to 300° C. at a rate of 10° C./minute. The instrument was controlled with, and software and the data were analyzed with TRIOS v. 5.0.0.44608.
DVS analysis was carried out using a TA Instruments Q5000 Dynamic Vapor Sorption analyzer. The instrument was calibrated with standard weights and a sodium bromide standard for humidity. Approximately 12 mg of the powder sample was loaded into a metal-coated quartz pan for analysis. The sample was analyzed at 25° C. after being equilibrated to 5% RH in 10% RH steps from 5 to 95% RH (adsorption cycle) and from 95 to 5 % RH (desorption cycle). The movement from one step to the next occurred either after satisfying the equilibrium criterion of 0.01% weight change in 5 minutes or, if the equilibrium criterion was not met, after 90 minutes. The percent weight change values were calculated using Microsoft Excel® 2016.
OM was conducted using a Keyence VHX-2000E digital microscope equipped with a VH-Z20R variable magnification lens assembly (20-200Ã). The sample particles were illuminated with reflected light. Photo-micrographs at high and low magnifications were acquired and processed using the VHX communication v2.35 software.
The 1H NMR spectrum was acquired on a Bruker NEO 400 MHz (9.4 T) spectrometer using TopSpin v4.1.1 software. Psilocin tartrate (3.2 mg) was dissolved in 0.75 mL of DMSO-d6, transferred into a 5-mm NMR tube for subsequent data acquisition. Each spectrum was processed using TopSpin v4.1.1 and referenced to the chemical shift of the residual DMSO-d6 (2.5 ppm). Detailed acquisition parameters are listed in TABLE 4.
In this EXAMPLE, the data shows that making a salt is a viable strategy to prepare stable psilocin solution formulations; this can be used to prepare solid psilocin formulations with enhanced shelf life and can lead to improved PK properties upon human dosing. The limited stability of psilocin free base under a variety of stress conditions is shown in the chart in FIG. 20 . HPLC data in FIG. 21 shows the improved stability of psilocin tartrate salt compared to the free base in solution. A salt screen using solutions in ethanol is summarized in TABLE 5. TABLE 5 shows that not all acids lead to stable salt formation under the same conditions.
FIG. 22 was taken at an 18-hour timepoint and demonstrates visually that salt formation is effective at improving the stability of psilocin.
A salt screen was performed on psilocin. The salt screen was performed according to the saturated API solution method. 23 counterions were explored in 3 solvent systems. For each counterion, 1.1 molar equivalent was used. In case the counterion had multiple ionization sites, 0.55 molar equivalent was also tested. To (close to) saturated solution of the API in ethanol, acetonitrile, and methyl ethyl ketone, 1M solutions of the counterion was added. With ACN solutions, aqueous counterion solutions were used, and with EtOH and MEK, counterion solutions prepared in THF were used. The mixtures were kept at RT overnight and than equilibrated at 5° C. for 3 days. Solids and liquids were separated. Solids were analyzed by XRPD wet and after drying under vacuum. The solvents were evaporated and obtained solids were analyzed by XRPD.
A benzoate salt was recovered. FIG. 25A shows XRPD patterns of benzoate salt Ben1 compared to psilocin free base and benzoic acid. FIG. 25B shows the vacuum dried benzoate salt.
A besylate salt was recovered. FIG. 26A shows XRPD patterns of potential besylate salt Bes1 compared to psilocin free base and benzenesulfonic acid. FIG. 26B shows the vacuum dried besylate salt.
Fumarate salts were recovered. FIG. 27A shows XRPD patterns of the fumarate salts compared to psilocin free base and fumaric acid. Fum1a and Fum1b were obtained as vacuum dry solids. Fum2 and Fum3 were only observed in the wet solids and converted to Fum1b upon drying Fum1a and Fum1b were observed in samples performed with both 1 and 0.5 molar equivalent of fumaric acid, Fum2 and Fum3 were only observed when 0.5 molar equivalent of fumaric acid was used. FIGS. 27B-27E show the different fumarate salts.
A glutarate salt was recovered. FIG. 28A shows XRPD patterns of glutarate salt Glt1 compared to psilocin free base and glutaric acid. FIG. 28B shows the wet glutarate salt and FIG. 28C shows vacuum dried glutarate salt.
A lactate salt was recovered. FIG. 29A shows XRPD patterns of lactate salt Lac1 compared to psilocin free base and lactic acid. FIG. 29B shows the vacuum dried lactate salt.
A malonate salt was recovered. FIG. 30A shows XRPD patterns of potential malonate salt Mao1 compared to psilocin free base and malonic acid. FIG. 30B shows the vacuum dried malonate salt.
Oxalate salts were recovered. FIG. 31A shows XRPD patterns of the oxalate salts compared to psilocin free base and oxalic acid. Oxa1a and Oxa1b were obtained from experiments performed with 1 molar equivalent oxalic acid, while the other oxalate salts were obtained from experiments with 0.5 molar equivalent. FIGS. 31B-31G show the different oxalate salts.
A phosphate salt was recovered. FIG. 32A shows XRPD patterns of phosphate salt Pho1 compared to psilocin free base. FIG. 32B shows the vacuum dried phosphate salt.
Succinate salts were recovered. FIG. 33A shows XRPD patterns of succinate salts compared to psilocin free base and succinic acid. Suc1 was obtained from the experiments performed in MEK (both ratios), and Suc2 was obtained from the experiment performed with 0.5 molar equivalent succinic acid in ACN and converted to Suc3 upon drying. FIGS. 33B-33D show the different succinate salts.
Two tartrate forms were identified, Tar1 and Tar2. The thermal stability of the psilocin tartrate salt was evaluated in four solvent systems: water, water/ ACN 50/50, Water/ THF 50/50 and water/1,4- dioxane 50/50. Solutions of API and tartaric acid were prepared in the selected solvents. These solutions were measured by UPLC-MS and re-measured after storage at 5° C. overnight. The results indicated that the API remains stable in water and 50% water solutions in presence of 1 molar equivalent of tartaric acid.
FIG. 34 shows a comparison of the XRD patterns for psilocin free base, psilocin tartrate salt Form 1 (Tar1), psilocin tartrate salt Form 2 (Tar2) and three examples of amorphous psilocin tartrate salt (Am). 20 mg of API and 15 mg of tartaric acid were weighed in vials (molar ratio 1:1). Aliquots of 100 μL solvent were added until the solids were dissolved. The obtained solutions were frozen in liquid nitrogen and placed in the freeze dryer overnight. From water, water/ THF 50/50 and water/ dioxane 50/50 amorphous solids were recovered. The solid from water contained 1.3% residual water, while the solids obtained from the THF and dioxane mixtures contained 7.8 and 10.3% solvent, respectively. The solid obtained from the acetonitrile mixture was crystalline and had a different XRPD than the free base or the already known tartrate salt and was designated Tar2. All solids had a purity of about 99%. The material to be used for polymorph screening was prepared by freeze drying a solution in water.
FIG. 35 is an overlay comparing the XRPD pattern of psilocin tartrate salt Form 1 (Tar1) and Form 2 (Tar2). TCP13 was isolated from acetone/water, 95:5 as follows. To about 35 mg of amorphous psilocin tartrate salt, acetone/water (95:5) was added in small aliquots until a thin suspension was obtained. The suspension was subjected to a temperature cycling profile, of 3 cycles between 5 and 50° C. with a heating rate of 10° C./h and cooling rates of 20, 10 and 5° C./h, with a final aging stage at 25° C. for 48 hours. The solids were isolated and analyzed by XRPD after drying at ambient conditions and under vacuum at 50 C. The gently dried and harshly dried solids had the same XRPD patterns.
TABLE 7 shows high throughput XRPD peak information for Tar1 and TABLE 8 shows high throughput XRPD peak information for Tar2. XRPD peak information from high resolution XRPD may vary from that presented in these tables.

FIG. 36B shows the polarized light microscopy image taken with 20Ã magnification. The solid consists of small needle like crystals with longest size close to 0.05 mm that are arranged in aggregates looking like hay sheaves.
XPRD peak data is shown in TABLE 10.
FIG. 37A shows an XPRD graph of Whole Powder Pattern Decomposition analysis of the tartrate salt Tar2. The refinement data and cell parameters are shown in TABLE 11.
FIG. 37B shows the polarized light microscopy image taken with 10Ã magnification. The solid consists of small needle like crystals with longest size close to 0.05 mm that are arranged in aggregates looking like hay sheaves.
XPRD peak data are shown in TABLE 12.
Rietveld analysis of psilocin as received, using CCDC 1238288 single crystal data as a model is shown in FIG. 38A .
The experimental conditions and cell parameters are shown in TABLE 13.
FIG. 38B shows the polarized light microscopy image taken with 20Ã magnification. The solid consists of plate like crystals with the longest sizes close to 0.05 mm.
XPRD peak values are shown in TABLE 14.
FIG. 39 shows an asymmetric unit of psilocin tartrate crystal (Tar1), with the hydrogen bond shown between the two molecules. The charged N3 atom interacts in bifurcated hydrogen bonds. One interaction is directed toward the carboxylic non deprotonated acidic group, while the second interaction is directed toward the (deprotonated) acidic carboxylate group. The NâH group from the fused ring act as H-bond donor to the hydroxyl group of the anion closer to the carboxylate (O27) as acceptor. The crystal is built up by an extensive hydrogen bonds network, where each N or O connected H atom is utilized as donor of hydrogen bonds, while every O atom serves as hydrogen bonds acceptor. TABLE 15 shows crystallographic parameters.
A HR-XRPD pattern was collected using the crushed crystals that were obtained by evaporation from ethanol. Comparison of this HR-XRPD pattern with the simulated XRPD from the single crystal data confirmed that the patterns were identical. Rietveld analysis was performed on the HR-XRPD data, using the single crystal data as model. No crystalline impurities were detected ( FIG. 40 , TABLE 16). The top lines represent collected data and calculated and the bottom line is the difference between them. The sticks at the bottom show the peak positions of the unit cell.
Evaporation of the mother liquor of a salt screen experiment performed with 1.1 molar equivalent of hydrobromic acid in MEK resulted in the recovery of HBr1. The HT-XRPD pattern of the solid are shown in FIG. 41A . HBr1 was unstable upon exposure to AAC for two days and became deliquescent. FIG. 41B shows an image of the material of HBr1.
The UPLC analysis of HBr1 ( FIG. 42 ) showed the presence of the API peak with the chemical purity of 70.6% (area %). The peak at 1.5 min corresponded to a m/z of 277 (M+72)+, possibly due to a reaction of API with MEK.
The TGMS analysis of HBr1 ( FIG. 43 ) showed a mass loss of 4.7% in the range 25-180° C., which could correspond to 0.20 MEK molecules per API salt unit. The DSC trace of HBr1 ( FIG. 44 ) showed two endothermic events at 88.1° C. and at 145.6° C., possibly related to the mass loss observed by TGMS analysis and melting, respectively. The 1H-NMR spectrum of HBr1 is shown in FIG. 45 . The API peaks shifted compared to the free base, confirming salt formation took place. Since hydrobromic acid is an inorganic counterion, the stoichiometry was not confirmed. About 0.4 molar equivalent of MEK were detected (or 9.2%).
