Abstract

The present invention provides novel isoquinolinium compounds, methods of producing the isoquinolinium compounds, and methods for converting them into cisatracurium, e.g., cisatracurium besylate. The isoquinolinium compounds of the present invention can be obtained in the form of solids, which can be purified using simple techniques and can be used to afford pure cisatracurium besylate without HPLC purification.
