Page/Page column 16; 25, (2008/06/13)
The invention relates to a novel method for the production of losartan, an imidazol derivative with the chemical name 2-n-butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxymethyl-1-{[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-]methyl}imidazol and the pharmacologically active salts thereof. The invention also relates to novel intermediate products which are suitable for the production of losartan, and to novel methods for the production of intermediate compounds which are suitable for the production of losartan. One aspect of the invention is a method for the production of a compound of general formula (I), which can arise as an intermediate step in the inventive representation of losartan.
