Procedure
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), 2-chloro-N,N-dimethyl-acetamide (0.45 mL, 4.41 mmol), potassium iodide (0.18 g, 1.10 mmol), and cesium carbonate (2.16 g, 6.61 mmol), in acetonitrile (15 mL), and the reaction was stirred overnight at reflux. 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 0-10%) to give 2-(7-Methoxy-8-nitro-1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[d]azepin-3-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-acetamide (537 mg, 79%) as a yellow solid. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.67 (s, 1H), 6.82 (s, 1H), 3.95 (s, 3H), 3.30 (s, 2H), 3.09 (s, 3H), 2.98 (s, 3H), 2.85-3.05 (m, 4H), 2.73 (t, J=10.2 Hz, 4H); LC/MS (ESI+): 308.55 (M+H).
