Abstract:
Alternative continuous downstream processes for the production of 5-acetamido-N,N′-bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalamide (“Compound A”) are described. Compound A is a key intermediate in the production of iodixanol and iohexol, which are two of the biggest commercially available non-ionic x-ray contrast media agents.
