Procedure
A 20 mL scintillation vial was loaded with 556.8 mg (1.641 mmols) of topiramate (Cheminor Drugs Ltd., Hyderabad, India, Batch TP001.J00) and 1 mL THF (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo. USA, 99.0+%, Lot 50k1485), and all of the topiramate dissolved. 89.9 mg (1.602 mmols) of solid KOH (Spectrum, Lot PN0690) was dissolved in the topiramate/THF solution. The solution was allowed to evaporate overnight at room temperature leaving an amorphous solid. The solid was further dried by placing it in a vacuum desiccator 1 white brittle solid.
