Cis+Hydroxyl Lactum block (Phase-II): The process for manufacture of this compound has four production stages. 4.1 Stage 1: PAA is the raw material which is added to SMO. Receivers which contain brine or Chilled water are present. These are used for cooling purposes. Methyl chloro acetate is added to the above mixture and is maintained at 5oc. This SMO solution is reduced to 25%. It is maintained for 3-4hrs. No steam is used in this process. Only brine is used for cooling purpose. A sample is sent to QC to check that there is no PAA in the final mixture. Later this mixture is added to water and maintained for 2 hrs. For filtration it is sent to CNF, vacuum drying happens. Epoxide is the output in this stage. If ANF is used in the place of CNF, addition of water, cooling, filtration, drying occurs. The final powder should then be manually carried out from the reactor. To avoid this CNF is used. In CNF, no manual unloading is required. 4.2 Stage-2: Toluene is added to the mixture, temperature is increased to 50-55oc by steam input. Settling happens. Active slay (water content) settles at the bottom with organic layer at the top. RM 283 is added to the organic layer, this is an exothermic reaction, temperature increases to 113oc. To cool this solution, brine or chilled water is used. Sample is sent to QC to check whether there is any epoxide content in the final solution. Mixture is cooled to 60oc, then it is sent to SSR104 and temperature is reduced to 50oc to 55oc and temperature is further reduced to 30oc finally it is cooled down to 0oc. The cooling of temperature from 60oc to 0oc occurs in 2 stages. This is sent to ANF where filtration and drying occurs, recovery of solvent takes place. Output is DL ester which is unloaded to drums. 4.3 Stage-3: Acetone nitrite solvent is added to Stage 2 output. Temperature is increased to 40-50oc. Raw
