- Claim:
1. A process for preparing Crystalline Form A of Lansoprazole, which comprises dissolving Lansoprazole obtained by oxidation of 2-([3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridinyl]-methyl)thio-1H-benzimidazole in ethanol, adding water, stirring the mixture at the temperature range of from 15 to 40° C. for 0.5 to 4 hours, filtering, and drying.
- Claim:
2. The process of claim 1, wherein ethanol is used in an amount of 1 to 50 parts by weight per 1 part by weight of Lansoprazole.
- Claim:
3. The process of claim 1 or 2, wherein the used ethanol has a purity of 95 to 99%.
- Claim:
4. The process of claim 1, wherein the color of the solution is removed by using charcoal and sodium hydrosulfite (Na2S2O4) before water is added.
- Claim:
5. The process of claim 4, wherein the solution is adjusted to pH 8˜9 by using a base.
- Claim:
6. The process of claim 1, wherein water is used in an amount of 2 to 2.5 times by volume to ethanol.
- Claim:
7. The process of claim 1, wherein water is added dropwise over from 20 minutes to 1 hour.
- Claim:
8. The process of claim 1, wherein the stirring temperature is controlled to 18 to 22° C. after water is added.
- Claim:
9. The process of claim 1, wherein the stirring time is controlled to 1 to 2 hours after water is added.
- Claim:
10. The process of claim 1, wherein the drying is carried out under vacuum.
- Claim:
11. The process of claim 10, wherein vacuum drying is carried out for 4 to 24 hours at 35˜40° C.
