The present invention also provides a process for preparation of zolmitriptan polymorph A. Thus, for example, zolmitriptan isopropanol solvate was dissolved in isopropyl acetate at 25 deg C, the contents were heated to reflux for 30 minutes and the separated solid was filtered, washed with isopropyl acetate to give zolmitriptan isopropyl acetate solvate.
Abstract:
There was provided a process for preparing candesartan cilexetil, the said process comprises hydrogenating a solution of trityl candesartan cilexetil in an alcohol with hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst. Mixture of toluene and methanol was added to 1-(Cyclohexyloxy carbonyloxy)ethyl-2-ethoxy-1-[[2'-(N-triphenylmethyltetrazole-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl] methyl]benzimidazole-7-carboxylate and hydrogenated at room temperature with hydrogen at atmospheric pressure in the presence of palladium on carbon until the hydrogen uptake was ceased. Filtered over celite bed, washed the bed with a mixture of toluene and methanol, filtrate was collected and concentrated. Co- distilled with acetonitrile, acetonitrile was added, stirred at room temperature, cooled to 0°C. stirred, filtered, washed with chilled acetonitrile and dried to get candesartan cilexetil.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved and commercially viable process for preparation of erlotinib substantially free of N-methoxyethyl impurity, namely N-[(3-ethynylphenyl)-(2-methoxyethyl)]-6,7-bis(2-methoxyethoxy)-4-quinazolinamine, and its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof in High purity and in high yield. According to the present invention, erlotinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt of erlotinib substantially free of N-methoxyethyl impurity is prepared by isolating erlotinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of erlotinib from a solvent medium comprising dimethyl sulfoxide and an alcoholic solvent.
Abstract:

Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved and commercially viable process for preparation of irbesartan intermediate, 1-[(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-2-n-butyl-4-spirocyclopentane-2-imidazolin-5-one, substantially free of 1-[(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-2-n-propyl-4-spirocyclopentane-2-imidazolin-5-one impurity, thereby producing irbesartan substantially free of the undesired propyl analog impurity, namely 2-propyl-3-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl]methyl]-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]non-1-en-4-one. The present invention also provides a process for preparation of irbesartan substantially free of tin content. The present invention further provides a commercially viable process for preparation of irbesartan in high purity and in high yield.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved and commercially viable process for preparation of substantially enantiomerically pure esomeprazole in neutral form or as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or as its solvates including hydrates. Thus, for example, a compound containing a mixture of 1-(S)-camphorsulfonyl-5-methoxy-2-[(3,5-dimethyl-4-methoxy-2-pyridyl)methyl-(S)-sulfinyl]-1 H-benzimidazole and 1-(S)-camphorsulfonyl-6-methoxy-2-[(3,5- dimethyl-4-methoxy-2-pyridyl)methyl-(S)-sulfinyl]-1 H-benzimidazole is hydrolyzed with barium hydroxide, isolated the resulting esomeprazole barium salt followed by neutralization with an acid to yield substantially enantiomerically pure esomeprazole in neutral form and then converted into its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for highly stereoselective synthesis of sertraline and sertraline intermediate. Thus, the mixture of 4-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydro-N-methyl-1(2H)-naphthalenimine, 5 % Pd/CaCO 3 , water and methanol is taken in a hydrogenation flask and then subjected to hydrogenation under a hydrogen pressure of 0.5 Kg at 20 - 35°C for 3 hours 30 minutes. The catalyst is removed by filtration and the solvent is evaporated completely under vacuum to obtain cis-(±)-4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-N-methyl-naphthalen amine. (trans-(±): 0.2).
Abstract:
The present invention provides a commercially viable process for preparing saquinavir and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof using novel intermediate. Thus, for example, N¿2?-(2-quinolinylcarbonyl)-L-asparagine is reacted with pivaloyl chloride in methylene chloride in presence of triethyl amine to give pivaloyl N¿2?-(2-quinolinylcarbonyl)-L-asparaginate, which is then condensed with [3S,4aS,8aS]-2-(3S-amino-2R-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyl)-N-(1,1-dimethylethyl)decahydro-3-isoquinoline carboxamide to give saquinavir, followed by treatment with methanesulfonic acid to give saquinavir mesylate.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of high assayed cefdinir. Thus, crude cefdinir is added to water at 25 - 30°C and then 18% hydrochloric acid is slowly added to form a clear solution. The solution is cooled to -5°C and stirred for 5 minutes at -5°C to +5°C. Then temperature of the mass is raised to 35 - 38°C, stirred for 15 minutes at the same temperature. To the reaction mass eno carbon is added at 35 - 38°C and stirred for 30 minutes at 35 - 38°C. Then the contents are filtered on hiflo bed and washed with water. The filtrate is then cooled to 25°C, the pH is slowly adjusted to 2.6 with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and stirred for 60 minutes at 25 - 30°C. Filtered the solid, washed with water and dried at 40°C under vacuum to give high assayed cefdinir.
