Participants

Reaction Steps

4.65 g (10 mmol) of tert.butyl (S)-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-8-iodo-9-oxo-9H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c] [1,4]benzodiazepine-1-carboxylate, 24 g (330 mmol) of hydroxymethyl-cyclopropane and 3 g (13 mmol) of tetraethyl crthotitanate are stirred at 115° overnight, the solution is evaporated to dryness and the residue is taken up in chloroform. The solution obtained is stirred for 0.5 hour with 40 ml of a saturated potassium fluoride solution, the resulting emulsion is filtered through siliceous earth, the organic phase is separated, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated. By crystallization from ethyl acetate and hexane there is obtained cyclopropylmethyl (S)-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-8-iodo-9-oxo-9H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-1-carboxylate of melting point 164°-165°.
