  • Publication number: 20250122197
    Abstract: Provided herein is a process comprising heating a composition comprising (P)-compound A or a salt thereof and a solvent to a temperature of 250° C. to 350° C. to form racemized compound A. Also provided is a process for isolating (P)-compound A from a composition comprising (P)-compound A and a tartrate, as described herein. Further provided herein, is a process for isolating a free acid of a tartrate or a hydrate thereof from a composition comprising a tartrate, (P)-compound A, and an organic solvent.

  • Patent number: 11994502
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for analyzing a product stream of a chemical reaction. The method includes withdrawing a portion of the product stream of the chemical reaction from a reactor, the portion of the product stream having a volume of less than about 200 ?L. The method further includes mixing the portion of the product stream with a diluent to produce a sample and then transferring the sample to a liquid chromatography device. A measured chemical profile is then developed, via the liquid chromatography device, which can be used for process monitoring or real time decision making. In some embodiments, the method can include adjusting a reaction condition in the reactor based on differences between the measured chemical profile and a desired chemical profile.
