2. Physical & Chemical Properties
2.1 Physical Index
- Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless
- Solubility: Slightly soluble in DMSO, chloroform; practically insoluble in water, ethanol, aliphatic alkanes
- Melting Point: 208–212 °C (decomposes)
- Hygroscopy: Non-hygroscopic under normal dry storage
- Crystal Character: Uniform fine crystalline powder with good formulation dispersibility
2.2 Chemical Properties
- Benzimidazole Heterocyclic Skeleton: Contains carbamate and propylthio functional groups responsible for antiparasitic bioactivity
- Acid & Alkali Stability: Stable under neutral and weak acidic environments; hydrolyzes under strong alkaline heating
- Thermal Stability: Decomposes above melting point without sublimation
- Photostability: Sensitive to intense UV light; long-term light exposure causes discoloration and activity loss
- Compatibility: Compatible with common pharmaceutical solid excipients; incompatible with strong oxidants and concentrated alkali
