At the end of the 2 hour metering period, the pump and the line were flushed with approximately 10 mis of anhydrous isopropyl alcohol. The batch was then stirred overnight at 45°C. An additional 5.35 grams of 2,2 diethylsuccinic anhydride was added to the reactor via a charging port. The batch was filtered through a fritted disc funnel the filter cake was washed with 163 grams of cold isopropyl alcohol . The filter-cake was dried over two days under house vacuum under a nitrogen purge at 40°C. The product assayed at 99.7 area% by HPLC and was determined to be Polymorph B by powder X-Ray diffraction.
