  • Patent number: 7884121
    Abstract: This invention relates to a process for the preparation of an aminoalkyl phenyl carbamate compound of formula 1, wherein R1 and R2 independently are hydrogen or C1-6 alkyl; R3 and R4 are the same or different and each is a lower alkyl; or R3 and R4 together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a cyclic moiety of a three to eight-member ring, with or without a hetero atom like nitrogen or oxygen; R5 and R6 independently are hydrogen, linear, branched or cyclic C1-6 alkyl, allyl, propargyl or benzyl; or R5 and R6 together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a cyclic moiety of three to eight member ring, with or without a hetero atom like nitrogen or oxygen; the carbon center marked with “*” is racemic or enantiomerically enriched (R)- or (S)-configuration; and pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts, and crystalline and amorphous forms thereof comprising the steps of: i) converting an amine R5R6NH to a carbamoylimidazolium salt of formula 3 wherein R5 and R6 are

  • Patent number: 7271253
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of Balsalazide and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts wherein the reaction comprises: a. the intermediate N-(4-aminobenzoyl)-?-alanine is converted to N-(4-ammoniumbenzoyl)-?-alanine sulfonate salt using a sulfonic acid in water, b. the N-(4-ammoniumbenzoyl)-?-alanine sulfonate salt is treated with aqueous sodium nitrite solution at low temperature to generate N-(4-diazoniumbenzoyl)-?-alanine sulfonate salt, c. the aqueous solution obtained is quenched with aqueous disodium salicylate to furnish Balsalazide disodium solution, d. the solution is acidified to allow isolation of Balsalazide, and e. optionally converting the Balsalazide to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt (such as disodium salt).
