Abstract
A halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl)-2-oxapropane is prepared by adding a pyridinealdoxime to a bis-halomethylether in such a manner that the bis-halomethylether is maintained in excess throughout the addition. This procedure produces the halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl) -2-oxapropanein high yield and purity, which facilitates its use as an intermediate in the manufacture of an asymmetrically substituted 1,3-di (1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane, a class of compounds that are generally useful antidotes to various toxic agents. A prominent member of the class is the dimethylsulfonate salt of 1-(2-hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3 -(4-carbamoyl-1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane. The use of mercaptoalkyl-functionalized polymers is disclosed as a preferred metal ion scavenger for a final purification step in the manufacture of these compounds.
