Reaction Steps

9.75 g (2.5 molar equivalents) of the metformin free-base was stirred in a mixed solution of 112.5 ml of acetone and 5 ml of water at 40° C., and then a solution of 4.41 g (1 molar equivalent) of adipic acid in acetone-water was added dropwise thereto and stirred at room temperature. The produced crystal was filtered and dried in hot air, thus obtaining 11.47 g (yield: 93.9%) of metformin adipate.
