Manufacturing process of Tafluprost
Before starting the operation, ensure the cleanliness of equipment, availability of utilities, and confirmation of raw materials and packing materials.
Charge dichloromethane in glass pot and add prostaglandin derivatives and reagents for esterification. The reaction is maintained at 25–30°C for 360–480 minutes. After the reaction, the mixture is cooled to 0–5°C, and an anti-solvent is added to initiate crystallization.
The product is then filtered and washed with chilled anti-solvent. The final product is dried under vacuum at -20°C. Pack Tafluprost in a glass or polypropylene vial. Place the vial inside a poly bag, twist its mouth, and secure it with a PVC strip. Insert this bag into a triple-laminated aluminum bag and seal it properly. Finally, place the sealed aluminum bag in an HDPE container. Store Tafluprost in a tightly closed, light-resistant container at a temperature of -20°C to -10°C.
