Preliminary test

From the TGA curve it could be derived that the weight of the sample decreased significantly at 250°C. At 303°C the sample weight has decreased by 25%. After the experiment it was observed that the test item was evaporated from the sample container.

Main tests

In order to determine the melting more precisely, the DSC curve with a heating rate of 20°C/min was obtained and showed an endothermic peak between 75°C and 100°C. The extrapolated onset temperature of the peak was 86.174°C. The effect was most likely obtained due to melting of the test item.

To investigate the endothermic peak between 75°C and 100°C, a repeated heating cycle was applied in the Experiment 2. The extrapolated onset temperature of the endothermic peak was 86.334°C.

During cooling, an exothermic peak between 20°C and 40°C was found. The effect was obtained due to crystallization of the test item. This result supported that the endothermic effect was due to melting of the test item.

The temperature program in Experiment 3 was similar as the program of Experiment 1 and similar results as with Experiment 1 were obtained. The extrapolated onset of the melting peak was 86.201°C. After the experiment it was observed that the test item was evaporated from the sample container.

The melting temperature was determined as the average melting temperature obtained from Experiment 1 (86.174°C), Experiment 2 (86.334°C) and Experiment 3 (86.201°C).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The melting temperature of JNJ-25760046-AAA (T002680) was determined at 86.2°C (359.4K) by using DSC.
