Abstract
The present invention provides substantially pure desloratadine having an HPLC purity greater than 99.5% and having an absorbance less than 0.15 Au at 420 nm for a 5% w/v solution in methanol, which does not show a peak for an impurity at a relative retention time in the range from about 0.85 to about 0.99 (relative to desloratadine appearing at a retention time of 25±5 minutes), which is greater than the discard limit set at less than 0.025% of the total area, when tested according to an HPLC method performed using a Hypersil BDS Ccolumn (15 cm×4.6 mm, 5 μm particle size) with the following parameters: The present invention also provides a process for the preparation of substantially pure desloratadine by the process comprising acidic hydrolysis of a compound of formula 3 where R is selected from COR, COORwherein Ris selected from branched or linear alkyl (1-6 C), cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, aralkyl and their substituted analogs; and their substituted analogs with a strong organic acid or a mineral acid.
