  • Step A Preparation of mixture of crystalline and amo ⁇ hous cefditoren pivoxil from crystalline cefditoren pivoxil
  • Crystalline cefditoren pivoxil (2.0 g) was dissolved in acetic acid (4.0 mL) at ambient temperature. This solution was added to pre-cooled water (60 mL) at about 5- 10°C. The resultant mixture was stirred for about 10 to 15 minutes at about 5-10 °C. The separated solids were filtered and washed with a copious amount of water. The product was then dried to yield a mixture of crystalline and amo ⁇ hous cefditoren pivoxil (1.7 g).
  • Step B Conversion of mixture of crystalline and amo ⁇ hous cefditoren pivoxil to amo ⁇ hous cefditoren pivoxil
  • DMF dimethyl methyl acetate
  • ethyl acetate 50 mL
  • water 35 mL
  • the resultant mixture was stirred for about 10 to 15 minutes and the layers were separated.
  • the organic layer obtained was subjected to spray drying using a mini spray-dryer (Buchi Model 190) at an inlet temperature of about 75 °C and an outlet temperature of about 55 °C with a feed rate of 15 mL per minute.
  • Cefditoren pivoxil (1.45 g) was thus obtained in an amo ⁇ hous form.
