Reaktionsschritte

In a three-neck flask (500 ml), equipped with a mechanical stirring apparatus, 15 ml water was introduced, followed by pyridinium bromide (71.75 g, 0.45 mole; Chemadaa' (Nir Yitshak, Israel)). The mixture was stirred at room temperature (22° C.) for about 10 minutes. Then 250 ml toluene was added, followed by 50 g (0.224 mol) of 10-methoxy-5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine (compound of formula (4), wherein R4 is methoxy). [Note: 10-methoxy-5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine may be obtained from iminostilbene according to the process disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,808,058. 10-methoxy-5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine also is commercially available from various suppliers, including Zhejiang Jiuzhou Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Zhejiang, China), and Ningbo Chongyangtang Biologic Tech Co., Ltd. (Ningbo, China)] NaOCN (45 g, 0.69 mol; OCI Corp., South Korea) was added and the reaction was mixed for about 7–8 hours at room temperature (22° C.). After 7–8 hours, 125 ml of water was added, and the mixture was stirred for about 15 minutes. The resulting solid carbamate of formula (1), 10-methoxy-5H-dibenz[b,f]azepine-5-carboxamide, was filtered and washed with 50 ml of water. The organic layer was separated and washed with water (2×50 ml).
