A cathode material and a fabricating method thereof, and a lithium-ion battery are described. The cathode material is a 1D metal-organic coordination polymer of [CuL(Py).sub.2].sub.n, and its structure is formed by interlinking organic ligands (L) and metals (Cu). The cathode material can use redox active sites on both the metal and organic ligand to carry out multi-electron transfer. A N bond contained in L together with a benzene ring of L in an adjacent polymer chain form a weak interaction of C≡N . . . π. In addition, a Py of adjacent polymer chains also have an interaction of π . . . π. Therefore, [CuL(Py).sub.2].sub.n chains are closely interlaced and packed, but there is still enough regular space for lithium ions to enter and exit quickly, so it can be charged and discharged rapidly and exhibits high power density.

The present invention relates to an improved process for the preparation of N-((1R,2R)-1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-1-hydroxy-3-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)propan-2-yl)octanamide (A), which is known as ELIGLUSTAT and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, comprising the formation of novel intermediate metal complex (III), which on hydrolysis in presence of acid provides amine compound (IV) (as described herein), which is treated with pyrrolidine and subsequently reduced to convert into Eliglustat (A).

The present invention relates to a novel method of synthesis of copper (I) 5-nitrotetrazolate. Particularly, for the synthesis of the copper (I) 5-nitrotetrazolate, the present invention uses a suitable salt of 5-aminotetrazole, preferably the sulfate or the nitrate salt as the starting compound. The selection of the said starting chemical not only eliminates any safety issue arising during Sandmeyer reaction conditions to affect the functional group conversion but also greatly improves the ease of executing the synthetic protocol, rendering the process safe to be adopted for commercial manufacture of the copper (I) 5-nitrotetrazolate compound.
