Abstrakt: Myristyl-γ-picolinium chloride (MGPC) is an alkyl pyridine quaternary ammonium salt and a popular preservative in injectables such as Depo-Medrol (Methylprednisolone acetate). Herein we describe a successful high-p,T,c chemical intensification of MGPC synthesis from neat myristyl chloride and γ-picoline in continuous flow. The process is atom economical, scalable with low reactor footprint and under optimized conditions, consistently affords MGPC in 45 min (instead of 8–12 h reported in literature for a conventional batch process) with excellent yield (> 90%) and purity (> 99%).
