The present disclosure relates to processes for the preparation of 2-amino-1,3-propane diol compounds and their hydrochloride salts. Particularly, the present disclosure relates to processes for synthesizing 2-amino-2-(2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl)-1,3-propanediol and its hydrochloride salt 2-amino-2-(2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl)-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride respectively. The said process is safe, commercially feasible for large-scale synthesis and has improved efficacy along with many other advantages. The present disclosure also relates to the novel polymorphs of 2-amino-1,3-propane diol compound and its hydrochloride salt, where in 2-amino-1,3-propane diol compound is 2-amino-2-(2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl)-1,3-propanediol, and its hydrochloride salt is 2-amino-2-(2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl)-1,3-propanediol hydrochloride.

Precipitation promoters, which are an organic compound having one or more linear aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having not less than 10 carbon atoms, wherein the aliphatic hydrocarbon group has not less than 20 carbon atoms in total are useful for precipitating an organic compound protected by an organic group having one or more aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having not less than 10 carbon atoms from a solvent.

This invention relates to a chemistry branch, particularly to the field of compounds' organic synthesis that belongs to the aromatic bicyclic or naphthalene category, used in the detection of amyloid sheets. These new naphthalene derivatives have a general formula: Wherein R represents mutually independent groups. In I: R.sub.1:-alkylenyl-C(O)NH-alkylenyl-R.sub.3, -alkylenyl-C(O)O—R.sub.4, R.sub.3:—COOH, —OH, —SH, —NH.sub.2, -alkyl-NH-alkyl-N-dithiocarbamate alkaline earth metal salts, R.sub.4: H, succinimidyl group, R.sub.2: —H,-alkyl. In II: R.sub.1: -alkyl, -alkylenyl-halide-alkylenyl-hydroxyl-alkylenyl-O-aryl, —O-alkylsulfonate alkylenyl, R.sub.2: -halide-alkylenyl-O-aryl, -alkylenyl-O-alkylsulfonate, -alkylenyl-halide-, —CH(O), —HC═C(CN).sub.2, —HC═CHNO.sub.2, -alkylenyl-NH.sub.2, -alkylenyl-NH-alkyl, -alkylenyl-alkyl-N-dithiocarbamate alkaline salts. The terms “alkyl” and “alkylenyl” refer to linear or branched aliphatic chains, preferably from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the term halide to fluorine, bromine or iodine. These compounds are neutral, lipophilic and have low molecular weight and therefore they cross the blood brain barrier and attach to the amyloid sheets. The present invention provides procedures for obtaining naphthalene derivatives with good yields, which can be practical, economical and adapted to a larger-scale manufacturing. We are unaware whether the compounds presented in this invention have been previously reported.
