Echothiophate iodide process

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for preparation of Echothiophate Iodide (I). Echothiophate Iodide (I) obtained by the process of the present invention is obtained as new crystalline form designated as Form-SET. (I) The process for preparation of Echothiophate Iodide (I) according to present invention is an ecofriendly process that avoids the use of hazardous solvent systems and provides Echothiophate Iodide (I) of high purity. Pharmaceutical composition of the said crystalline Form-SET of Echothiophate Iodide (I) of high purity is useful in the treatment of ocular disorders like Glaucoma.
