The invention discloses a method for separating and purifying
nevirapine. The method is characterized by comprising steps as follows: adding an
organic solvent and a decolorizing agent to a crude product of
nevirapine to dissolve and discolor, and distilling to remove the
organic solvent which is 14-20 times the weight of the crude product of
nevirapine, and then cooling to crystallize, so as to obtain a primary crystallized material of nevirapine; adding the
organic solvent and the discoloring agent to the obtained primary crystallized material of nevirapine to dissolve and discolor, and distilling to remove the organic
solvent which is 9-16 times the weight of the primary crystallized material of nevirapine, and then cooling to crystallize, so as to obtain a secondary crystallized material of nevirapine; adding the organic
solvent and the discoloring agent to the secondary crystallized material of nevirapine to dissolve and discolor, and distilling to remove the organic
solvent which is 4-10 times the weight of the secondary crystallized material of nevirapine, and then cooling to crystallize, so as to obtain a purified product of nevirapine. The method disclosed by the invention is simple, controllable, low in cost, high in quality of products, and convenient for achieve industrial production.
