Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-allyl-8-methoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazepin-1-one (1.10 g, 0.0047 mol) in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) was treated at 0° C. with BBr3 (1M in CH2Cl2, 9.50 mL), and the resulting mixture stirred at 0° C. for 30 minutes. The solution was poured over ice, NaHCO3 was added, and the solution was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to yield ca. 1.0 g (100%) of 2-allyl-8-hydroxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazepin-1-one as a colorless oil; 1H NMR(CDCl3) d8.2(brs, 1H), 7.47(s, 1H), 6.95(d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 6.84(dd, J=3, 6 Hz, 1H), 5.89(m, 1H), 5.22(m, complex, 2H), 4.20(d, J=6 Hz, 2H), 3.18(t, J=6 Hz, 2H), 2.66(t, J=6 Hz, 2H), 2.15(s, 1H), 1.96(m, 2H); 13C NMR(CDCl3) d171.65(CO), 156.01, 135.68, 133.27, 129.55, 128.46, 118.51, 118.05, 115.91, 53.46, 49.81, 45.83, 30.87, 29.76, 29.12.
