“…Co-solvency or solvent mixing helps in estimating the preferential solvation of solute by the solvent compounds in mixtures [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]. Various co-solvents such as methanol, ethanol, polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400, acetone, ethyl acetate, dimethyl acetamide (DMA), dimethyl formamide (DMF), N -methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) have been used to enhance the solubility of drugs [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ]. Methanol, acetonitrile, DMA, DMF, and NMP fall under class 2 solvents while ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, acetone, and ethyl acetate fall under class 3 solvents [ 28 ].…”
