Procedure

A mixture of 2-n-butyl-3-[(2′-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-1,3-diazaspiro-[4,4]-non-1-en-4-one (10 g), sodium azide (7.7 g) and triethylamine hydrochloride (7.1 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 ml) was refluxed for 14 hours under stirring. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and 20 ml water was added. The reaction mixture was adjusted to pH of about 12 using 10% NaOH solution. The alkaline solution was washed with toluene (15 ml) and the aqueous phase was neutralized to pH of 6.5 using concentrated HCl. The resulting suspension was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature and filtered to obtain irbesartan (3.4 g, 95% purity by HPLC). Recrystallization of the product using ethanol results in 3.05 g of irbesartan with 99.2% purity and content of the impurity 2-n-butyl-3-[(2′-carboxamidobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-1,3-diazaspiro-[4,4]-non-1-en-4-one: 0.09%.
