Procedure
Clopidogrel base was dissolved in methanol, p-Toluene sulphonic acid was added to the solution at 20° C. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux temperature for 2 hrs. The solution was cooled to room temperature and the methanolic solution was added dropwise to hot toluene. The resulting solution was refluxed for an additional 20 minutes. The solution was cooled to room temperature and was stirred for 24 hrs. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to dryness to obtain Clopidogrel tosylate, similar to that obtained above.
