Reaction Steps
1.0 g of Donepezil was dissolved in 4 ml of ethanol under heating at 40° C. The solution was cooled in an iced water bath. After cooling for 4 minutes, 0.31 g of concentrated hydrochloric acid in 1 ml of ethanol was added hereinto. After 3 minutes, 30 ml of TBME was added hereinto. It continued stirring for 50 minutes in an iced water bath. Filtration of the separated crystals followed by drying afforded 1.08 g of the title compound. (water content: 1.78%)
