Hydrochloric Acid → Propranolol Hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(isopropyl)-3-azetidinol and α-naphthol were reacted in the same manner as in Example 6 to form 1-(α-naphthoxy)-3-(iso-propylamino)-2-propanol. Then the propanol was dissolved in anhydrous ether and was converted to a hydrochloride by blowing a hydrochloric acid gas into the resulting solution. As a result 1-(α-naphthoxy)-3-(isopropylamino)-2-propanol hydrochloride melting at 162°-164° C was obtained.
