Abstract: Disclosed herein are new crystalline forms of valbenazine ditosylate designated Form D and Form E, which are characterized using one or more analytical methods, such as X-ray Powder Diffraction analysis. Further disclosed herein are crystalline Form D valbenazine ditosylate in the form of a dichloromethane solvate, and crystalline Form E valbenazine ditosylate in the form of a hydrate. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising these new crystalline forms, and methods of using those compositions for the treatment of various disease states and conditions, including hyperkinetic disorder, such as drug-induced tardive dyskinesia and Tourette's syndrome.

Abstract: A new process for the preparation of Ropinirole (1) and pharmaceutically acceptable hydrochloride salt thereof comprising reacting the compound (V) with nitromethane to obtain the compound of formula (II), which is reduced to compound (III) and alkylated to obtain compound (IV).
