Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, iodine chloride in aqueous solution may degrade over time, resulting in a lower concentration of iodine chloride and thus less efficient use of its iodinating power in the synthesis of non-ionic X-ray contrast agents

Embodiment 1

[0019] Iodine (7.61 kg, 30 mol), hydrochloric acid (37%, 6.91 kg, 70 mol), water (0.62 kg, 35 mol) and sodium chloride (1.46 kg, 25 mol) were mixed in a reactor at 25°C. A solution of sodium chlorate (1.07 kg, 10 mol) in water (1.20 kg, 67 mol) was prepared with heating and added carefully to the reactor over a period of 2 hours with vigorous stirring. The reaction was continued at 27-30°C for 17 hours with moderate stirring. Free iodine was confirmed by extracting the sample with chloroform in the presence of hydrochloric acid (a pink color was obtained). The pH was measured to be 1.06. An aqueous iodine chloride solution (18.80 kg) having a concentration of 51.6 w / w% (relative to the reaction solution) was obtained, corresponding to a yield of 99.6%.

Embodiment 2

[0021] Iodine (2700kg, 10.6kmol), hydrochloric acid (35%, 2285kg, 21.9kmol), water (250kg, 13.3kmol) and sodium chloride (475kg, 8.1kmol) were mixed in a reactor at 20°C. Under vigorous stirring, an aqueous solution of sodium chlorate (43 w / w%, 864 kg, 2.6 mol) was carefully added to the reactor over 3-4 hours. The reaction was continued at 50°C for at least 10 hours with moderate agitation. Free iodine was confirmed by extracting the sample with chloroform in the presence of hydrochloric acid (organic phase was pink). The resulting pH is below 0.5. An aqueous solution of iodine chloride (approximately 3970 kg) was obtained at a concentration of 50 w / w% (relative to the reaction solution), corresponding to a yield of almost 100% relative to iodine.

Abstract

This invention relates generally to non-ionic X-ray contrast agents. It further relates to the preparation of iodine chloride, a key reagent in the synthesis of non-ionic X-ray contrast agents such as iodixanol and iohexol. In particular, the iodine chloride is produced in a reaction involving iodine, sodium chlorate, and hydrochloric acid as the starting materials. The instant invention relates to a method of stabilizing aqueous iodine chloride solutions by adding about one to about four molar equivalents of sodium chloride relative to sodium chlorate to an aqueous reaction mixture of sodium chlorate, hydrochloric acid, and iodine.
