ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method for the preparation of enantiomerically pure mirtazapine, said method comprising a step of ring closure of a compound of formula (II) wherein X is a leaving group, said step comprising treatment with an acid, whereby mirlazapine with enantiomeric excess is formed by the ring closure of the compound of formula (II) with enantiomeric excess by treatment with a suitable acid in the absence of a solvent or a suitable combination of an acid and an organic solvent.
