Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.93 g 10,11-dihydro-10-(4-amino-3-methylbenzoyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine and 0.37 g of o-tolyl isocyanate in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran is heated at reflux under argon for 24 hours. The volatiles are evaporated in vacuo to a residue which is dissolved in methylene chloride and passed through a pad of hydrous magnesium silicate. Hexane is added to the filtrate at the boil to give 0.68 g of the desired product as crystals, m.p. 155°-158° C.
