Procedure

A solution of 7-bromo-2-methoxy-2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one [1.0 g, described by T. Nozol et al., Proc. Japan Acad., 27, 556-60 (1951), (CA 46, 7560c)] in methanol (30 ml) is cooled to -20° C and saturated with gaseous ammonia. The reaction mixture is heated in a pressure bottle at 80° C for 4 hours and cooled to -70° C. The bottle is opened and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is boiled with ethyl acetate and the ethyl acetate extract is evaporated to give 2-amino-7-bromo-2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one.
