Procedure

Using the methods reported in U.S. Pat. No. 4,585,770, 5,6-dihydro-imidazo[4,5,1-jk][1]benzazepin-2,7-[1H,4H]-dione may be reacted with an alkyl nitrite (e.g., tert-butyl nitrite or isoamyl nitrite), in the presence of a base or acid (e.g., HCl), to form 4,5-dihydro-imidazo[4,5,1-jk][1]benzazepin-2,6,7[1H]-trione-6-oxime. The 4,5-dihydro-imidazo[4,5,1-jk][1]benzazepin-2,6,7[1H]-trione-6-oxime, in turn, is reduced via catalytic hydrogenation (with, for example, hydrogen in the presence of palladium on carbon) or sodium borohydride to form racemic trans 6-amino-7-hydroxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-imidazo[4,5,1-jk][1]-benzazepin-2[1H]-one:
