Reaction Steps

A mixture of (5R)-5-acetyloxymethyl-1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzazepine (1.49 g), potassium carbonate (1.11 g) and methanol (15 ml) is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes. The reaction solution is poured into water, and the mixture is extracted with dichloromethane. The extract is dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give (5S)-5-hydroxymethyl-1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzazepine (1.33 g).
