  • Patent number: 6639071
    Abstract: The instant invention describes a method for crystallizing (−)-6-chloro-4-cyclopropylethynyl-4-trifluoromethyl-1,4-dihydro-2H-3,1-benzoxazin-2-one from a solvent and anti-solvent system and producing the crystalline product. The desired final crystal form, Form I, can be produced when using methanol or ethanol. Form II is isolated from 2-propanol and can be converted to the desired crystal form at low drying temperatures, such as between about a temperature of 40° C. and 50° C.
