PROCESS FOR THE PURIFICATION OF GABAPENTIN

摘要

A process for the preparation of gabapentin which comprises the passage of a gabapentin inorganic salt through a strong cationic ionic exchange resin, the elution of gabapentin fixed on the column, the concentration of the resultant solution and the cristallization from organic solvent, characterized in that the elution of gabapentin fixed on the column is carried out by using an ammonia and alkaline hydroxide aqueous solution, is described.
