Triethylamine → trans-N-(7-chloro-2,3,4,14b-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,f]pyrido[1,2-d][1,4]oxazepin-1-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide

Reaction Steps

Successively, ethyl trifluoroacetate (1.41 mL, 11.8 mmol) and triethylamine (628 μL, 4.5 mmol) were added to trans-7-chloro-2,3,4,14b-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,f]pyrido[1,2-d][1,4]oxazepine-1-amine (291 mg, 0.97 mmol) in 11.8 mL of methanol. The resulting mixture was heated to 50° C. for 18 h. A precipitate was formed. The mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure to remove volatile reagents and 5 mL of methanol was added. After 30 min. stirring the precipitate was filtered off, washed with diethyl ether and dried to give trans-N-(7-chloro-2,3,4,14b-tetrahydro-1H-dibenzo[b,f]pyrido[1,2-d][1,4]oxazepin-1-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide as an off-white solid (330 mg, 86%).
