Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Charged toluene (50 ml) and to this charged cevimeline free base with cis isomer >90% (5.0 g) (prepared by any one of the above methods given in examples III to V). Stirred for 10 to 15 minutes to obtain a clear solution. Cooled the solution to 0 to 5° C. Charged concentrated sulfuric acid (1.3 ml) drop wise over 30 minutes and stir the resultant liberated sulfate salt for 30 minutes at 0 to 5° C. Then slowly raised the temperature to reflux temperature (100 to 115° C.) and continued the reflux for 60 to 90 minutes. The reaction mass was then cooled and processed as in Example VI to yield 3.5 g of cevimeline sulfate with cis isomer >97% purity by HPLC.
