Procedure

The crude diethyl-(5-phenyl-3H-azepin-2-yl)-amine (12.47 g) is added to water (10.0 mL) and 2-methoxy-ethanol (40.0 mL) and the resulting mixture heated to reflux and stirred 4½ days. The volatiles are removed in vacuo and the residue diluted with dichloromethane and washed with 0.1N HCl (2×200 mL) and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (2×200 mL). The organic layer is dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give the crude title compound as a dark brown solid (9.63 g). This material is carried into the next reaction without further purification.
