Reaktionsschritte

10-[(2RS)-1-(1-Pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarbonitrile hydrochloride (3.72 g) is added to a solution of potassium hydroxide (1.7 g) in glycol (20 cc), and the mixture is stirred for 5 hours under reflux. After cooling, the yellow solution obtained is treated with a 3N solution (10 cc) of ethereal hydrogen chloride and diluted with acetone (100 cc) and ethyl ether (100 cc), then filtered. After seeding, the yellow filtrate allows the crystallization of a product which is drained, washed with ethyl ether (2×10 cc) and dried under reduced pressure (5 mm Hg; 0.68 kPa) at 40° C. 10-[(2RS)-1-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarboxylic acid hydrochloride (3.5 g) is thereby obtained in the form of yellow crystals, m.p. 215°-217° C.
