Process for the preparation of tenofovir

摘要

The present invention relates to novel Tenofovir disoproxil hemifumarate salt, which is prepared by dealkylation of Phosphonate esters by using mineral acids followed by esterification and crystallization to give crystalline Tenofovir disoproxil. The Tenofovir disoproxil is further converted to fumarate salts with improved yield.
