Reaktionsschritte

Into a 1-neck round-bottom flask was added 7-methoxy-8-nitro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine (0.5 g, 2.20 mmol), N-(2-chloro-ethyl)-acetamide (0.45 mL, 4.41 mmol), potassium iodide (92 mg, 0.55 mmol), and potassium carbonate (900 mg, 7 mmol), in N-methylpyrrolidinone (5 mL), and the reaction was heated at 90 overnight. The reaction mixture was next partitioned between water and ethyl acetate, and the layers separated. The aqueous phase was extracted twice with ethyl acetate and the combined organic extracts were washed with water, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated, and the product was isolated by flash chromatography on SiO2 (MeOH/dichloromethane 0-20%) to give N-[2-(7-Methoxy-8-nitro-1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[d]azepin-3-yl)-ethyl]-acetamide (100 mg, 15%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.67 (s, 1H), 6.84 (s, 1H), 6.11 (br s, 1H), 3.94 (s, 3H), 3.38 (m, 2H), 2.95 (m, 2H), 2.89 (m, 2H), 2.66 (m, 6H), 2.01 (s, 3H); LC/MS (ESI+): 308.02 (M+H).
