Page/Page column 3, (2015/12/24)
The present invention relates to an improved, environment friendly and cost effective process for the preparation of crystalline Form II of Rotigotine. Rotigotine, i.e. (6S)-6-{propyl[2-(2-thienyl) ethyl]amino}-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-l-naphthalenol represented by structural formula (I), is used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and Willis-Ekbom disease.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF NEUROLOGIC DISEASES

Paragraph 00102, (2013/12/03)
Provided are compounds, pharmaceutical acceptable salts, polymorphs, solvates, enantiomers, stereoisomers and hydrates thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds may be formulated for oral, buccal, rectal, topical, transdermal, transmucosal, intravenous, parenteral administration, syrup or injection, and may be used for the treatment of neurologic diseases, such as depression, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, Batten disease, Parkinson's disease and restless legs syndrome.
PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF ROTIGOTINE
-
Page/Page column 2-3, (2011/10/10)
A process for the preparation of Rotigotine (I) and of pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, which comprises the reductive amination of an amine of formula 6 with the 2-thienylacetic acid-sodium boron hydride complex and which makes use of hydrobromide 5 as an intermediate (II) The process is advantageous from the industrial point of view in that it allows to obtain Rotigotine with high enantiomeric purity starting from optically active 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-6-(S)-N-propylamino-1-methoxy-naphthalene (2), avoiding the use of dangerous reactives, the need for difficult chromatographic separation or the formation of by-products. Furthermore, two novel crystalline forms are disclosed.
