Procedure

A stirred solution of 4.10 g of 2-amino-α-(4-methoxyphenyl)-N-methylphenethylamine, 16.22 g of triethyl orthoacetate and 5.6 ml of glacial acetic acid is held under reflux (bath temperature 112° C.) for 2 hours. AFter standing overnight at ambient temperature the solution is concentrated in vacuo (pump) at 90° C. on a rotary evaporator. An ethereal solution of the residual oil is washed with 5% hydrochloric acid. The aqueous phase is made alkaline with 50% sodium hydroxide solution and the mixture is extracted twice with 25 ml-portions of methylene chloride. The combined, (dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate) organic phase is evaporated to afford a solid. Recrystallization from 10 ml of acetonitrile provides tan crystals, mp 130°-132° C. of 4,5-dihydro-2,3-dimethyl-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3H-1,3-benzodiazepine.
