Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 11 ml of dimethylsulfoxide and 1.1 g of hydroxide as a 50% oil dispersion was heated in a bath at 70° C. for 30 minutes and after cooling the mixture to 20° C., 4.1 g of cis 7-dimethylamino-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-ol were added thereto. The mixture was stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature and then 6.32 g of o-chloronitrobenzene were added thereto while cooling in an ice bath. The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at 20° C. and was extracted with methylene chloride. The organic phase was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and was filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure to obtain 12.8 g of cis N,N-dimethyl-5-[2-nitrophenoxy]-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-7-amine in the form of a brown oil.
