Procedure

An aqueous slurry of Ni-Raney (containing 30 g of Ni on a dry basis) was washed with tetrahydrofuran, and added over a solution of 270 g (0.78 mol) of methyl 2-chloro-10-nitromethyl-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]oxepine-11-carboxylate (compound XIa), as obtained in Example 18, in 2.7 L of tetrahydrofuran. The suspension was stirred under 50-60 psi (3447-4136 hPa) of hydrogen at room temperature for 2 days. The catalyst was removed by filtration, and the resulting solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain methyl 10-aminomethyl-2-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]oxepine-11-carboxylate (compound XIIa), which was used in the next step (see Example 20) without further purification.
