Polymorphic forms of the sodium salt of 4-tert-butyl-N-4-CHLOR0-2-(1-oxy-pyridine-4-carbonyl)-phenyl-benzenesulfonamide

摘要

Disclosed are novel polymorphic trihydrated forms of the sodium salt of 4-tert-butyl-N-[4-chloro-2-(1-oxy-pyridine-4-carbonyl)-phenyl]benzenesulfonamide. One embodiment of the present invention is directed to a crystalline form of the sodium salt of 4-tert-butyl-N-[4-chloro-2-(1-oxy-pyridine-4-carbonyl)-25 phenyl]-benzenesulfonamide (hereinafter “Compound A_crystalline trihydrate form I”), wherein the crystalline form is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern comprising diffraction angles (°28), when measured using Cu Ka radiation, at about 4.5, 9.0, 13.6, 13.9, 15.8, 17.8, 18.2, 18.5, 19.1, 19.9, 20A, 21.2, 22.1, 22.7, 24.3, 25.0, 25.6, 26.2, 26.8, 27.3, 27.6, 28.0, 28.8, and 30.8.
