Oxalic Acid → HCID 86645406, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

60 g rasagiline base were suspended in 885 ml 2-propanol. Then, 32.7 g oxalic acid dissolved in 885 ml 2-propanol were added. The mixture was allowed to stand in a refrigerator overnight, then filtrated and subsequently washed with 100 ml cooled 2-propanol. The residue was dried in a drying cabinet at 45° C. Yield: 87.6 g (93.1% of the theoretical) white crystals; water content (Karl Fischer): about 0.1%; melting point 204° C. (clear, brown melt); TFC: peak at 209.52° C.; [α]D20: +28.9° (2% in ethanol); elemental analysis: C=64.39% (theoretical: 64.36%), H=5.91% (theoretical: 5.79%), N=5.43% (theoretical: 5.36%).
