Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for the acetylation of an aqueous solution of lactic acid to (S)-2-acetyloxypropionic acid. The process comprises in particular removing water from the solution of lactic acid and reacting lactic acid with acetic anhydride in the presence of acetic acid.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a solid form of the gadobenate dimeglumine compound that comprises obtaining a solution of the said compound in a suitable solvent A wherein the amount by weight of the water optionally present in the solution is at most equal to or lower than the amount by weight of the gadobenate dimeglumine comprised in the solution and adding the obtained solution to an organic solvent B, acting as an appropriate antisolvent and favoring the formation of a solid form of the gadobenate dimeglumine that can be collected by filtration.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the calcium complex of (4RS)(4-carboxy-5,8,11-tris(carboxymethyl)-1-phenyl oxa-5,8,11-triazatridecan-13-oato(5-))pentahydrogen (BOPTA) in the form of a salt, to the process for its preparation and to a formulation comprising said salt.

Abstract:
The present invention discloses a process for the preparation of gadobenate dimeglumine complex in a solid form. In particular, said solid form is conveniently obtained by spray-drying a corresponding liquid suspension at a given temperature and concentration. The present invention is particularly advantageous for the industrial scale as the solid form may be obtained by employing water as a solvent, which is a non-toxic solvent, easy to handle and basically not requiring troublesome health or safety precautions.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for preparing Gadoteridol of formula (I). In particular, the process comprises the use of propylene oxide in the alkylation step of the compound of formula (II), wherein propylene oxide is directly reacted with the compound of formula (II) without being isolated, and wherein propylene oxide is obtained on demand by decomposition of propylene carbonate in the presence of an alkaline or alkaline earth metal halide as catalyst.
