[CH2:1]1[CH2:6][CH2:5][C:4]([CH2:11][NH2:12])([CH2:7][C:8]([OH:10])=[O:9])[CH2:3][CH2:2]1.Cl.C1OC1C>C(O)CCC>[CH2:1]1[CH2:2][CH2:3][C:4]([CH2:11][NH2:12])([CH2:7][C:8]([OH:10])=[O:9])[CH2:5][CH2:6]1Gabapentin hydrochloride (72 mmol) was suspended in 50 mL of n-butanol and heated gently until complete dissolution. The solution was cooled below 10° C. and propylene oxide (144 mmol) was added in one portion. The mixture was stirred for 16 hours below 10° C., after which it was cooled to −5° C. Pure gabapentin was recovered by filtration and washed with cold isopropanol. Drying at 40–50° C. under reduced pressure afforded 11.1 g of pure gabapentin.
