The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention in any way.
EXAMPLE
Example 1: Preparation of a sodium salt of sacubitril and valsartan.
Sacubitril (10 g) was added to methyl-i-butyl ether (40 mL) at 20°C to obtain a mixture. Valsartan (10.59 g) was added to the mixture and the reaction mixture was stirred at 20°C to 25°C for 10 minutes. Sodium-2-ethylhexanoate (12.12 g) was added to the reaction mixture at 20°C. The reaction mixture was heated to 55°C and then stirred for 5 hours at 55°C to 57°C. The reaction mixture was cooled to 20°C to 25°C and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The solvents were recovered at 40°C to 45 °C and methyl t- butyl ether (10 mL) was added to the reaction mixture at 40°C. The solvents were recovered under 680 mm Hg to 710 mm of Hg at 40°C to 45°C. N-pentane (50 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and then stirred for 1 hour at 20°C to 25 °C. The solid obtained was filtered and dried under 680 mm Hg to 710 mm of Hg at 35°C to 40°C to obtain the solid compound.
Weight = 15 g An X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) pattern of the resulting solid compound is depicted in Figure 1.
