Reaction Steps

7.2 g (0.04 mol) of 6-fluoroisatoic acid anhydride and 3.9 g (0.044 mol) of sarcosine are added to 10 ml of dimethyl sulphoxide and the mixture is heated at 100° C. for 30 minutes. After cooling and diluting with 15 ml of water, the separated substance is filtered off. After drying, there is obtained 6-fluoro-3,4-dihydro-4-methyl-2H-1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5(1H)-dione of melting point 214°-217° C. (decomposition).
