  • Patent number: 9732043
    Abstract: The present invention comprises methods of manufacturing a highly purified, pharmaceutical grade phthalazinedione (for example, 5-amino-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione) for administration to a human or animal. The manufacturing methods identify and isolate starting materials (for example, 3-nitrophthalic acid), and prepare intermediate products (for example, 3-nitrophthalhydrazide), which are suitable for the commercial batch process production of highly purified and high-yielding intermediate products and final phthalazinedione products. In an embodiment, a solution of 3-nitrophthalhydrazide and sodium hydroxide in water is prepared and hydrogenated to yield 5-amino-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione.
