Abstract: The present invention provides efficient, economical, and improved methods for synthesizing ibrutinib and intermediates thereof. The invention involves a unique biphasic acylation reaction system which advantageously allows for easy separation of ibrutinib from the reaction mixture without additional extraction and wash steps. The isolated ibrutinib formed using the methods described herein can be useful in the preparation of an amorphous form of ibrutinib. In some embodiments, the isolated ibrutinib produced by the processes described herein is a homogenous solution of ibrutinib and DMSO which may be directly used in the formation of the amorphous polymorph. In some embodiments, the isolated ibrutinib is solid ibrutinib. The solid ibrutinib may also be used in the formation of amorphous ibrutinib.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel crystalline forms of apremilast hemitoluene solvate, apremilast hydrate, and apremilast anhydrate and an amorphous form of apremilast, and processes for the preparation of these forms.

Abstract: Crystalline forms of pemetrexed diacid are provided (Forms 1 and 2) which are readily produced for either laboratory-scale or industrial scale. Processes for the preparation of Forms 1 and 2 are also provided.

Abstract: A process for preparing an amorphous form of idelalisib comprises: (a) forming a first solution of idelalisib in a solvent; (b) adding the first solution obtained in step (a) into water to form a second solution; (c) optionally cooling the second solution obtained in step (b) and; (d) isolating the optionally cooled second solution from step (c) to provide the amorphous form of idelalisib. Mild reaction conditions are used in this process. The amorphous form of idelalisib prepared by this process is stable and does not transfer to other crystalline forms easily. This process is suitable for large scale manufacture of idelalisib at a high yield.

Abstract: A recycling facility includes a receptacle for receiving the ammunition to be cleaned, a gas tank for receiving a pressurized gas and coupled to the receptacle, for supplying the pressurized gas to the receptacle, and a heater coupled between the gas tank and the receptacle, for preheating the pressurized gas before the pressurized gas flowing into the receptacle, and for melting and removing the TNT material from the ammunition. The receptacle includes a control valve coupled between the heater and the receptacle, and a control valve coupled between the heater and the gas tank. A collecting casing may be coupled to the receptacle, and coupled to the gas tank via a filter.
