Procedure

Fluvastatin methyl ester (2.0 g) was added to a mixture of NaOH (1 eq.) and butan-1-ol (15 ml). The mixture was stirred at about 80° C. for 2.5 h, after which the starting material was not detected by HPLC. Then, 40 ml of acetonitrile was dripped into the solution. The mixture was then cooled slowly to room temperature and stirred overnight. The product was isolated by filtration under nitrogen, washed with acetonitrile (45 ml) and dried at 50° C. in a vacuum oven for 24 h to obtain 1.96 g (96.2%) of fluvastatin sodium Form VII.
