Abstract:
A method of preparation of the hemi-calcium salt of rosuvastatin of formula (I) consists in extracting an aqueous solution of the sodium or potassium salt of (E)-7-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)-6isopropyl-2- [methyl(methylsulfonyl)amino]pyrimidin-5-yl](3R,5S)-3,5-dihydroxy-6-heptenoic acid, with optional admixture of sodium or potassium hydroxide or other sodium or potassium salts having inorganic anions, with an organic solvent, incompletely miscible with water, selected from the series of R 1 COOR 2 , R 1 COR 2 and R 1 OH, wherein R 1 and R 2 independently represent hydrogen or a residue of a C 1 -C 10 aliphatic hydrocarbon, C 6 aromatic hydrocarbon, C 5 or C 6 cyclic hydrocarbon, or a combination of an aliphatic and aromatic or cyclic hydrocarbon, the extract being subsequently shaken with an aqueous solution of an inorganic or C 1 -C 5 organic calcium salt, and the product of formula I is further isolated by cooling and/or adding an anti-solvent and filtration, and optionally, is converted into its amorphous form.
Abstract:
Stabilization of the pharmaceutical active solid substance atorvastatin alone or in a mixture with other solid substances embedded in a gaseous mixture is carried out in such a manner that in the surrounding gaseous mixture a partial pressure of oxygen of at most 2 kPa, preferably less than 1 kPa, more preferably less than 0.4 kPa is maintained. The corresponding partial pressure is achieved either by use of oxygen absorbers, by packaging under a pressure of 0.3 - 10 kPa, or by packaging under a slight overpressure of an inert gas, preferably nitrogen, the gas being introduced, by means of nozzles, into the cavities, optionally also into the space of the press roller and of the wiper station.
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition comprising a cyclodextrin complex of (7α, 17α)-17-hydroxy7-methyl-l9-nor-l7-pregn-5(10)-en-20-yn-3-one (Tibolone) and methods for the manufacture thereof.
Abstract:
From the starting 4-bromomethyl-2'-(1-triphenylmethyltetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl, N-[(2'(1-triphenylmethyl-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-(L)-valine benzyl ester of formula 7 is obtained via a reaction with L-valine benzyl ester, and is converted to valsartan of formula I via a reaction with valeryl chloride and removing of protective groups. The method consists in converting, with hydrochloric acid, N-[(2'-(l-triphenylmethyl-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4yl)methyl]-(L)-valine benzyl ester of formula 7, obtained in the first stage, to N -[(2'-(1-triphenylmethyl-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-(L)-valine benzyl ester hydrochloride of formula III, which is optionally re-crystallized.
Abstract:
Tablet containing metformin or pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof, where the active substance release is controlled by a hydrophobic polymer; the tablet contains 60 to 80 percent by weight of the active substance and 9 to 25 percent by weight of the hydrophobic polymer.
Abstract:
A method of preparation of ramipril of formula (I), during which the benzyl ester hydrochloride of formula (III) is converted to the benzyl ester of formula (II), which in turn affords, by reaction with the carboxyanhydride of formula (V), the benzyl ester of ramipril of formula (IV), which is subsequently converted to ramipril of formula (I).
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing glimepiride of formula I wherein trans-4-methylcyclohexylamine pivalate of formula VII is reacted, either directly or after conversion to trans-4-methylcyclohexylamine or to its another salt, with an alkyl [4-(2-{[(3-ethyl-4-methyl-2-oxo-2,5-dihydro-lH-pyrrol-l yl)carbonyl]amino)ethyl)phenyl]-sulfonyl carbamate of general formula IV wherein R is a C1-C5 alkyl, giving glimepiride of formula I. trans-4-Methylcyclohexylamine pivalate of formula VII.
