Hay varias formas con las que se podrían encontrar niveles sumamente bajos de la impureza Grignard en los compromidos que no sean las de haber utilizado el procedimiento de Lundbeck:
1) la formación de la impureza Grignard a causa de una ruta de reacción de fondo inesperada o desconocida.
2) contaminación con la impureza Grignard dentro de las instalaciones de análisis.
3) Contaminación con las reacciones desarrolladas en un reactor donde la doble reacción de Grignard se hubiera realizado previamente.
4) El uso de fuentes diferentees del pfincipio activo farmaceútico en las instalaciones de fabricación de los compromidos.

double (Grignard) reaction
Don't claim to known these things but "double Grignard reaction" throws up a lot of results
Example sentence:
Although there is a trend towards the desired trans-borolane the ratios are not much better than those obtained by Masamune’s ‘double’ Grignard reaction in his synthesis
reaction with aldehydes followed by a double Grignard reaction with allylmagnesium bromide

: There are a kajillion references to "grignard reaction", and 400+ to your answer, so it should be OK.

Discussion
Here the first product is a ketone in which the OR' group of the ester has been replaced by the alkyl group of the Grignard reagent. This ketone is immediately attacked by another molecule of the Grignard reagent. After neutralization with aqueous acid the product is an alcohol in which the two identical groups attached to the alcohol carbon are from the Grignard reagent. If the R group of the ester is a carbon group this will be a tertiary alcohol.
In both these cases, we've combined a the general pattern for carboxylic acid derivatives, substitution of the nucleophile in place of the leaving group, with a pattern which applies to aldehydes and ketones, to arrive at "double" reaction. The first part is substitution and the second part is addition. We can't stop the reaction halfway, because aldehydes and ketones are more reactive than esters, so the aldehydes and ketones gobble up the reagent faster than the esters.
Thanks for all your participation.
I don't dare post it as an answer because I am not 100% sure but maybe it can point you in the right direction :-)
If we concentrate and send positive energy maybe M.C. Filgueira will appear soon to save the day!
