Reaction Steps

In another embodiment, of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-6-(propylamino)benzothiazole sulfonate or halide salts (8) may be converted to an HCl salt using a concentrated solution of HCl and isopropyl acetate (IPAC). In such embodiments, 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-6-(propylamino)benzothiazole sulfonate or halide salt (8) may be dissolved in IPAC and cooled to about 15° C. HCl (gas) may then be bubbled into the slurry for from about 0.5 hours to 3 hours to produce 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-6-(propylamino)benzothiazole dihydrochloride (10), after which the mixture may be filtered, washed with an inert solvent, such as, for example, IPAC and dried under vacuum at room temperature. A detailed example of this synthesis may be found in Example 13.
