Reaction Steps

A solution of 7-fluoro-2,10-dihydro-2-methyl-4-(1-piperazinyl)pyrazolo[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepine (1.0 g), bromomethylcyclopropane (0.5 g) and triethylamine (0.0375 g) in acetonitrile (30 ml) was stirred at ambient temperature for 20 hours. The solution was poured into water and the product extracted with chloroform (3X). The organic extract was washed with saturated brine and water, dried over magnesium sulphate, the solvent removed and the residue crystallised from ethyl acetate to give the title compound m.p. 188°-189° C. 4-(4-Benzyl-1-piperazinyl)-7-fluoro-2,10-dihydro-2-methyl-pyrazolo[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepine was similarly prepared, m.p. 241°-245° C. (ethyl acetate-diethyl ether)
