Abstract: | A microwave enhanced palladium catalysed cyanation procedure was optimised for the final step of a production method for citalopram 2. The method was demonstrated on multigram batch scale for the synthesis of escitalopram (S)-2 and then in a stop-flow continuous process for citalopram. |
