Reaktionsschritte

Cocrystals of dimethyl fumarate and (+)-camphoric acid were prepared as follows. 150 mg of dimethyl fumarate and 225 mg of (+)-camphoric acid were dissolved in 3 ml of ethyl acetate with stirring and gentle heating. The clear solution was cooled to room temperature, and 9 ml of heptane were added. The unstirred solution was allowed to stand for 24 hours. The starting concentrations of dimethyl fumarate and (+)-camphoric acid were chosen such that the thermodynamically stable solid phase at equilibrium is the cocrystal of dimethyl fumarate and (+)-camphoric acid. The crystalline material that formed was isolated by vacuum filtration, and dried to yield the dimethyl fumarate: (+)-camphoric acid (1:16, by NMR) cocrystal form 1 (112 mg).
