GLYCOFUROL Structural

What is GLYCOFUROL?

Chemical properties

Glycofurol is a clear, colorless, almost odorless liquid, with a bitter taste; it produces a warm sensation on the tongue.

The Uses of GLYCOFUROL

Glycofurol is used as a carrier device for drug delivery.

The Uses of GLYCOFUROL

Used as solvent to dissolve water-insoluble compounds.

What are the applications of Application

Tetraglycol is a solvent used to dissolve water-insoluble compounds

Production Methods

Glycofurol is prepared by the reaction of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol with ethylene oxide (followed by a special purification process in the case of Glycofurol 75).

Pharmaceutical Applications

Glycofurol is used as a solvent in parenteral products for intravenous or intramuscular injection in concentrations up to 50% v/v. It has also been investigated, mainly in animal studies, for use as a penetration enhancer and solvent in topical and intranasal formulations. Glycofurol has also been used at 20% v/v concentration in a rectal formulation.

Safety

Glycofurol is mainly used as a solvent in parenteral pharmaceutical formulations and is generally regarded as a relatively nontoxic and nonirritant material at the levels used as a pharmaceutical excipient. Glycofurol can be irritant when used undiluted; its tolerability is approximately the same as propylene glycol.
Glycofurol may have an effect on liver function and may have a low potential for interaction with hepatoxins or those materials undergong extensive hepatic metabolism.
LD50 (mouse, IV): 3.5 mL/kg

storage

Stable if stored under nitrogen in a well-closed container protected from light, in a cool, dry place.

Incompatibilities

Incompatible with oxidizing agents.

Regulatory Status

Included in parenteral medicines licensed in Europe.
