Under a nitrogen atmosphere, a 75%-aqueous sulfuric acid solution (2 ml) was added to a solution of ethyl 1-benzyl-3-oxoazepane-4-carboxylate (150 mg, 0.545 mmol) in ethanol (1 ml) at room temperature, and the resulting mixture was heated to 120° C. After 3 hours, completion of the reaction was confirmed and the resulting mixture was cooled. On the other hand, under a nitrogen atmosphere, a 75%-aqueous sulfuric acid solution (2 ml) was added to a solution of the mixture containing ethyl 1-benzyl-3-oxoazepane-2-carboxylate (200 mg, content=about 75%) in ethanol (1 ml) at room temperature, and the resulting mixture was heated to 120° C. After 12 hours, completion of the reaction was confirmed and the temperature was lowered. The reaction solution was combined with that obtained above, and the combined reaction solution was poured onto ice and adjusted to pH 8 with a 2M-aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. The combined reaction solution thus treated was extracted with ethyl acetate (50 ml×2) and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The organic layer dried was concentrated under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was purified by a silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate) to obtain 1-benzylazepan-3-one (118.1 mg, 53%).
