Problems solved by technology

Impurities in duloxetine HCl or any active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) are undesirable, and, in extreme cases, might even be harmful to a patient being treated with a dosage form of the API in which a sufficient amount of impurities is present.
Furthermore, the undesired enantiomeric impurities reduce the level of the API available in the pharmaceutical composition.
The product mixture of a chemical reaction is rarely a single compound with sufficient purity to comply with pharmaceutical standards.
The API need not be absolutely pure, as absolute purity is a theoretical ideal that is typically unattainable.

Purification of Duloxetine Hydrochloride in Acetone / Water

example 1a

[0063] A mixture of 20 g Duloxetine hydrochloride in 204 ml acetone / water (98:2) was heated to reflux. After the compound was dissolved, the oil bath was removed, and the solution was cooled to 15° C. overnight. The solid was filtered, washed with acetone, and dried in a vacuum oven at 45° C. for 16 hours, giving Duloxetine hydrochloride (78 percent yield), containing DLX-ISO3 (0.21 percent) and enantiomer R (<0.03 percent)

example 1b

[0064] A mixture of 13 g of the previously obtained Duloxetine hydrochloride in 130 ml acetone / water (98:1.5) was heated to reflux. After the compound was dissolved, the oil bath was removed, and the solution was cooled to 110° C. for 2 hours. The solid was filtered, washed with acetone, and dried in a vacuum oven at 45° C. for 16 hours, giving Duloxetine hydrochloride (87 percent yield), containing DLX-ISO3 (0.15 percent) and free of enantiomer R.
