Procedure
A solution of 9.97 g of 4-(4-nitrobenzoyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-thieno[3,2-b]azepine in 110 ml of glacial acetic acid and 0.997 g of 10% palladium-on-carbon is hydrogenated in a Parr hydrogenator under 30-50 lb. of pressure for 4.5 hours. The mixture is filtered through a pad of diatomaceous earth and the filtrate concentrated to dryness under vacuum. The gummy residue (8.1 g) is purified by HPLC on a Waters-Prep-500 instrument with silica gel and ethyl acetate-hexane (1:1) as solvent. Fractions containing product are combined and the solvent removed. The residue is crystallized to give 4.0 g of crystals, m.p. 168°-172° C.
