Carvedilol phosphate sesquihydrate
The present invention relates a novel crystalline 1-(Carbazol-4-yloxy-3-[[2-(o-methoxyphenoxy)ethyl]amino]-2-propanol phosphate sesquihydrate (Carvedilol dihydrogenphosphate sesquihydrate), methods of preparing the sesquihydrate by adding phosphoric acid to a suspension of Carvedilol in water, water miscible solvents or a mixture of water and water miscible organic solvent followed by isolating the product directly or by adding solvent.
1. Carvedilol dihydrogen phosphate sesquihydrate having the formula
characterized by an x-ray powder diffraction pattern, obtained using Cu/K alpha radiation, having peaks at about 5.83 (±) 0.2, 15.11 (±) 0.2, 16.21 (±) 0.2, 18.00 (±) 0.2, 21.81 (±) 0.2 and 26.11 (±) 0.2 two-theta.
2. Carvedilol dihydrogen phosphate sesquihydrate having the formula
characterized by an x-ray powder diffraction pattern, obtained using Cu/K alpha radiation, having peaks at about 5.83 (±) 0.2, 6.46 (±) 0.2, 6.78 (±) 0.2, 14.39 (±) 0.2, 15.11 (±) 0.2, 16.21 (±) 0.2, 17.26 (±) 0.2, 18.00 (±) 0.2, 19.01 (±) 0.2, 20.46 (±) 0.2, 20.97 (±) 0.2, 21.81 (±) 0.2, 24.45 (±) 0.2, and 26.11 (±) 0.2 two-theta.
