Reaktionsschritte

The procedure described in Example 13 is followed with the difference that, instead of the (RS)-N,N-dimethyl-{2-[4-(α-phenyl-p-chloro-benzyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethoxy}-acetamide dihydrochloride, 106.4 g (0.2 moles) of (RS)-N,N-dimethyl-{2-[4-(α-phenyl-p-chloro-benzyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethoxy}-acetamide fumarate is used, and, after adjusting the pH of the reaction mixture to 3.8, the precipitated fumaric acid is filtered to facilitate the extraction with dichloromethane. Thus, 71.8 g (77.8%) of the title compound are obtained, m.p.: 225-228° C. The purity of the product corresponds to the quality requirements given in Eur. Pharm., 3, 1997, 1084.
