| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a novel process for preparation of rufinamide (I) comprising: reacting 2,6-difluorobenzyl azide (II) and propiolic acid (III) in a mixture of alcohol and water to produce 1-(2,6-difluorobenzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid (IV), esterifying the acid (IV) to ester (V) and treating ester (V) with ammonia. The invention further relates to process for purification of 1-(2,6-difluorobenzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid (IV), by crystallization from a mixture of alcohol and water. The present invention also provides process for purification of rufinamide (I) by crystallization from mixture of polar aprotic solvent with water or alcohol. |
