Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To 1 Liter reactor was added Nilotinib-base form A (20 g, 0.04 mol), ethanol absolute (188 ml) and 13.77% HCl solution in ethanol abs. (10 g, 0.04 mol). The slurry was heated to reflux, dissolution occurred during the stirring, and the mixture was filtered under reduced pressure. The Filtrate was fed back to the reactor and heated back to reflux. At 76.6° C. the solution was seeded with 0.2 g of dry material obtained by the process of example 23. Precipitation was observed. Then, the solution was maintained at reflux for 1 h, followed by cooling for 2 h to 6° C. At 6° C. ethanol abs. was added (300 ml) and the slurry stirred at 5° C. for 30 minutes, filtered, washed with ethanol abs. to yield Nilotinib-HCl form T18.
