N 1 , N 3 -Bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-2,4,6-triiodo-5-( N -(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)acetamido)isophthalamide ( 1 ), the alleged precursor of several minor byproducts formed when the X-ray contrast agent iodixanol is synthesized from 5-acetamido- N 1 , N 3 -bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalamide ( 2 ), has been successfully prepared with an overall yield of 25%. Epoxide 1 enabled the confirmation of its presence in the reaction mixture during the preparation of iodixanol when amide 2 was used as the starting material.
