In another flask, mixture of Tetrahydrofuran (430 ml) and Triethylamine (430 mL) is taken and cooled to 0-5°C. The above reaction was slowly added to the Tetrahydrofuran and Triethylamine mixture at below 25 °C followed by addition of Tetrahydrofuran (1070 mL) and Triethylamine (82 mL). After completion of the maintenance at 35-40°C for 1 hour, solvent was completely distilled under vacuum at below 40°C. After that, 1500 mL of water was added to the reaction mass at 30- 35°C and maintained for 2.5-3.0 hours at 30-35°C. Obtained solid was filtered and dried to afford Tafamidis crystalline Form-Nl with 14.5 % TEA content.
Example 3: Process of Tafamidis meglumine without isolation of Tafamidis free acid (direct preparation of crystalline polymorph of Tafamidis Meglumine from 4- [(3, 5-dichlorobenzoyl) amino]-3- hydroxybenzoic acid):
Into the round bottom flask added 4-[(3, 5-Dichlorobenzoyl) amino]-3- hydroxybenzoic acid (0.015 mole) and 1,4-dioxane (50 mL), Triflic acid (0.030 moles). The reaction mass was heated to 105-110°C and progress of the reaction was monitored by HPLC. After completion of reaction, the reaction mass was cooled to 60-80°C and Triethylamine (0.046 moles) was added. To the above clear solution, N-methyl-D-glucamine (0.017 moles) was added. Obtained solid was cooled, filtered and dried to afford crystalline Tafamidis meglumine.
Yield: 4.6g; 64.7% by theory; HPLC Purity: >99%.
Example 4: Process for the preparation of crystalline Form-N2 of Tafamidis.
Tafamidis meglumine (100.0 gm) was suspended in water (4.0 L) at 20-25°C. After that, added Cone. HC1 (25.0 gm 1.2 mole) drop-wise to the above suspension at 20- 25 C for about 30 mins. After l.Oh maintenance, the obtained solid was filtered, and dried to yield Tafamidis Form-N2.
Yield: 56.5g; HPLC purity: 99.9%
XRPD (29): The XPRD pattern with characteristic peaks are observed at 9.8±0.2,11.5±0.2 and 19.3±0.2 (29). (see Fig.5)
DSC: DSC thermogram with endotherm having an onset peak temperature at 288 °C. (see Fig.6)
