Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

8-Methoxy-1-methyl-1,5-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]diazepine-2,4-dione (220 mg) was added to the suspension at the same temperature, and stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour. Ethyl iodide (187 mg) was added to the mixture and stirred at room temperature overnight. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and extraction with ethyl acetate was performed. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane:ethyl acetate=4:1→1:1). The purified product was concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to give the title compound(190.2 mg) as a yellow solid.
