✦ Synopsis
Sildenafil citrate (Viagra) [I] and sildenafil base [II] are easily and unequivocally characterized by a set of physicochemical methods that include X-ray diffractometry, infrared spectroscopy, and thermal analysis. Monoclinic lattice constants: [I]: a ¼ 26.98 A ˚; b ¼ 11.95 A ˚; c ¼ 16.68 A ˚; b ¼ 106.978. [II]: a ¼ 8.66 A ˚; b ¼ 34.27 A ˚; c ¼ 8.93 A ˚; b ¼ 96.638. Both compounds decompose at 189.48C [I] and 251.98C [II]. Densities and refractive indices are given.

The interaction of Ca(2+)-ions with sildenafil citrate (Viagra) leads to the precipitation of a new polymorph variety of sildenafil base. Under the same conditions, Mg(2+), Zn(2+), and Cd(2+) ions form structurally related crystalline complexes of the composition Me(2+)C(28)H(34)N(6)O(11)S. Lattice
