Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This invention relates to the synthesis of iodixanol (1,3-bis(acetamido)-N,N′-bis[3,5-bis(2,3-dihydroxypropylaminocarbonyl)-2,4,6-triiodophenyl]-2-hydroxypropane), more specifically to the dimerisation of 5-acetamido-N,N′-bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-2,4,6-triiodo-isophthalamide with methanol as solvent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A process for the dimerisation of 5-acetamido-N,N′-bis (2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalamide (Compound A) in a temperature range of about 10 to about 20° C. using methanol as solvent in a concentration of about 0.8 to 2.0 ml solvent per g Compound A in the presence of about 0.30 to 0.36 mole equivalents of epichlorohydrin relative to Compound A, and wherein the reaction solution has a pH value of about 11.5 to about 12.2, whereby the pH is varied throughout…
