Claims9
A process for the preparation of a solid that is isomerically enriched in zuclomiphene of Formula (1-A) relative to enclomiphene of Formula (1-B):
- or a salt thereof, the process comprising:
- (i) crystallizing and isolating a solid, from a mixture comprising enclomiphene binaphthyl hydrogen phosphate salt and zuclomiphene binaphthyl hydrogen phosphate salt in a solvent (S1), that is isomerically enriched in the enclomiphene binaphthyl hydrogen phosphate salt to afford a first solution;
- and either:
- (ii-a) crystallizing and isolating a solid from the first solution that is isomerically enriched in the zuclomiphene binaphthyl hydrogen phosphate salt;
- or
- (ii-b)(a) treating the first solution with a base to liberate binaphthyl phosphate salt and removing it from the first solution to afford a second solution;
- (b) treating the second solution with oxalic acid;
- and
- (c) crystallizing and isolating a solid from the second solution that is isomerically enriched in the zuclomiphene oxalate salt;
- wherein the mixture is enriched in enclomiphene binaphthyl hydrogen phosphate salt relative to zuclomiphene binaphthyl hydrogen phosphate salt.
