The title compound was prepared in the manner of Example 31, Step A using 2,5-dimethoxy-2′-trifluoromethyl-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylic acid of Step A (1.63 g, 5 mmol), oxalyl chloride (700 μL, 8 mmol), N,N-dimethylformamide (10 μL), 10,11-dihydro-5H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine (0.93 g, 5 mmol) and Hünig's base (1.78 ml, 10 mmol). Flash chromatography over silica gel using a solvent gradient from 30% ethyl acetate in hexane to 100% ethyl acetate provided the title compound (0.900 g) as a solid. Recrystallization from acetonelhexane yielded white needles, m.p. 210–213° C.
