Reaction Steps

To 2 g 10-acetamido-5,6-dihydro-11H-dibenzo(b,e)azepine-6,11-dione suspended in 20 ml dimethylformamide are added 710 mg sodium methylate in 10 ml methanol. After keeping at ambient temperature for 30 minutes, 2.5 ml methyl iodide are added and the mixture then kept at ambient temperature for 24 hours. It is then poured into water, filtered, dried and crystallized from ethanol: yield 1.6 g, melting point 203°-204° C.
