[0096] X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) Analysis: XRPD patterns were collected on a Bruker D2 PHASER diffractometer with fixed divergence slit and ID LYNXEYE detector. The sample (approximately 100 mg) was placed flat on the sample holder. Use CuK α The as-prepared samples were analyzed by radiation at an energy of 10 mA and 30 kV over a 2Θ range of 5° to 50° with a step size of 0.02 degrees and a step time of 1 second. Removal of CuK by Diverging Beam Nickel Filter β radiation.
[0097] Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) Analysis: DSC traces were collected on a TA DISCOVERY DSC25 instrument. Samples (approximately 5 mg) were weighed into aluminum pans with crimped closed aluminum lids. The prepared samples were analyzed from 10°C to 100°C at a scan rate of 10°C / min under nitrogen flow (approximately 50ml / min). The melting point temperature and heat of fusion were calibrated by indium (In) before measurement.

[0100] preparation of crude biprostone
[0101] 7-[(2R,4aR,5R,7aR)-2-(1,1-difluoro-pentyl)-octahydro-2-hydroxyl-6-oxocyclopentyl[b]pyran-5-yl ) 4-methoxybenzyl heptanoate (60 g, 117.5 mmol, enantiomeric purity > 99%) was dissolved in 600 ml ethyl acetate, and then 5% palladium / activated carbon was added under hydrogen for 3 hours. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of celite. The solvent was evaporated under vacuum. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography using a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as gradient eluent to obtain 40 g of lubiprostone as an oil. HPLC analysis of the product showed that 1.1% impurity A was found.

[0103] Preparation of lubiprostone crystal VI
[0104] Oily lubiprostone (0.51 g from Example 1) and p-xylene (1.0 ml) were heated at 40°C to dissolve and then cooled to room temperature. n-Pentane solvent (1.0 ml) was slowly added dropwise and the mixture was stirred in an ice-water bath for 1 hour until solid precipitation occurred. The resulting suspension was filtered and rinsed, and then dried under high vacuum at room temperature for 4 hours to yield 0.38 g of lubiprostone crystalline VI. HPLC analysis of the product showed that impurity A was not found. XRPD and DSC results such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown in .
