Open Access Deviations of drug solubility in water-cosolvent mixtures from the Jouyban-Acree model – effect of solute structure

Deviations of the predicted solubilities using the Jouyban-Acree model from experimental data were correlated to the structural descritptors of the drugs computed by HyperChem® software. The proposed models are able to predict the solubility in water-cosolvent mixtures and reduced the mean percentage deviations (MPD) of predicted solubilities from 24%, 48%, and 53% to 16%, 33% and 38%, respectively for water-propylene glycol, water-ethanol and water-polyethylene glycol 400 mixtures, with the overall improvement in prediction capability of the model being ∼13%.
