Procedure
To a solution of 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene-5-carbonitrile (100) (Med. Chem. Res. 1, 401 (1991)) (1.0 g, 4.56 mmol) and N-(2-chloroethyl)-N,N-dimethylamine hydrochloride (0.72 g, 5 mmol) in benzene (20 mL) was added 8.8 mL of a 1.3M solution of lithium hexamethyldisilazide (11.4 mmol). The mixture was heated at reflux under nitrogen for 18 hr and the solvent then removed under vacuum. The residue was treated with water (20 mL) and extracted twice with methylene chloride (20 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried over sodium sulfate, and chromatographed directly on silica gel eluted with methylene chloride followed by 95:5:0.5, then 90:10:1 methylene chloride:methanol:ammonium hydroxide. The product fractions were evaporated to dryness in vacuo to give the title compound as a yellow oil.
