Structure of the active pharmaceutical ingredient bismuth subsalicylate

Abstract: Structure determination of pharmaceutical compounds is invaluable for drug development but is challenging for materials that form as small crystals with defects. Bismuth subsalicylate (BSS), among the most commercially significant bismuth compounds, is an active ingredient in over-the-counter medications such as Pepto-Bismol (genericized trademark), used to treat dyspepsia and H. pylori infections. Despite its century-long history, the structure has remained unknown. Three-dimensional electron diffraction and … Show more

“…As bismuth(III) compounds in the solid state take on different shapes, the coordination number of the metal atom is one parameter for cataloguing their crystal structures. A number of bismuth(III) compounds have been used as medicines (Keogan & Griffith, 2014;Kowalik et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2020;Yang et al, 2015;Sadler et al, 1999) and the crystal structures of Bi III derivatives of familiar drugs have been reported, for example, bismuth subsalicylate (Grape et al, 2021;Thurston et al, 2002), bismuth subgallate (Wang et al, 2017b) and bismuth subcitrate (Li et al, 2003;Yang et al, 2010). The reports generally do not provide more complete details on coordination geometry as studies on bismuth compounds largely focus on medical applications (Bond & Rogers, 2021;Lambert & Midolo, 1997;Li et al, 2019;Salvador et al, 2012;Zhang et al, 2006) and pharmacokinetic mechanisms (Li & Sun, 2012;Sandha et al, 1998).…”
