Procedure
In another preferred process, a lower alkyl ester of fluvastatin is suspended in cyclohexane. Then, about one molar equivalent of sodium hydroxide dissolved in a minimum of protic solvent like methanol, is added to the suspension. The addition should cause the suspension to clarify. Upon standing, fluvastatin sodium may precipitate from the solution in amorphous form. Otherwise, additional cyclohexane can be added to induce precipitation.
