INTRODUCTION

Quinuclidinone Hydrochloride is a derivative of bicyclic amine quinuclidine. The hydrochloride form of quinuclidinone is the salt form, often used for its stability in different reactions. Quinuclidinone Hydrochloride is typically used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and other chemical products.

Manufacture

The introduction of a carbonyl group (C=O) through oxidation into the quinuclidine structure yields transformation into quinuclidinone. Quinuclidinone is then converted into its Hydrochloride salt form by reacting it with Hydrochloric acid. The final compound is then purified through crystallization.
