The first-order degradation kinetics of epidoxorubicin were investigated as a function of pH, temperature, and buffers concentrations. The degradation was followed by HPLC. Buffer catalysis was observed in acetate and phosphate buffers. The pH-rate profiles were obtained at 333, 343, 353, and 363 K. The pH-rate expression was pHwhere 1 , 4 , and 5 are the second-order rate constants (mol −1 L s −1 ) for hydrogen ion activity and for hydroxyl ion activity, respectively, and 2 and 3 are the first-order constants (s −1 ) for spontaneous reaction under the influence of water. Epidoxorubicin demonstrates the greatest stability in the pH range 3-5. The electrostatic molecular potential orbitals HOMO-LUMO were also defined in order to determine the cause of the reactivity of particular epidoxorubicin molecule domains in solutions with various pH values.
