Reaktionsschritte

Lorazepam ethanol solvate (100 g) was suspended in a 1:1 mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane (800 ml). The suspension was heated to 60° C. for 1 hour with rapid stirring and then cooled to 15° C. The cooled suspension was filtered to recover the lorazepam crystals and the crystals were then washed with ethyl acetate (20 ml). The crystals were dried at 50° C. under 65 mm Hg vacuum for two hours to give crystalline lorazepam (85 g, 90%).
