Patent ID: 11530179

Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure includes methods for preparing an amorphous solid composition of a fatty acid metal salt. In practicing the subject methods according to certain embodiments, a succinylated 3-(fatty acid amido)-2-hydroxy-1-(protected hydroxy)-propane organic salt is contacted with a metal base to produce a succinylated 3-(fatty acid amido)-2-hydroxy-1-(protected hydroxy)-propane metal salt; and the succinylated 3-(fatty acid amido)-2-hydroxy-1-(protected hydroxy)-propane metal salt is precipitated in a solvent to produce an amorphous solid succinylated 3-(fatty acid amido)-2-hydroxy-1-(protected hydroxy)-propane metal salt composition. An amorphous solid succinylated 3-(fatty acid amido)-2-hydroxy-1-(protected hydroxy)-propane lithium salt is also provided.
