Octanoyl chloride → 8-Chloro-N-(1-hydroxyoctylidene)dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepine-10(11H)-carbohydrazonic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 0.5 part of 8-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenz[b,f][1,4]oxazepine-10-carboxylic acid hydrazide and 19.6 parts of acetonitrile is added 0.298 part of sodium bicarbonate followed by 0.562 part of octanoyl chloride. The solution is stirred for 48 hours at room temperature, after which time the solvent is removed under reduced pressure and the resulting oil crystallized by trituration with cyclohexane. Recrystallization from cyclohexane yields 1-octanoyl-2-(8-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenz[b,f][1,4]oxazepine-10-carbonyl) hydrazine, melting at about 127°-129° and represented by the following structural formula ##SPC2##
