Procedure
The intermediate dihydrophenanthridine was prepared from 6-ethyl-9-methylphenanthridine, (Example 42, Step b, 0.50 g, 2.3 mmol), by treatement with sodium borohydride (0.51 g, 13.5 mmol) and trifluoroacetic acid (0.7 mL, 9 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (11 mL). In a separate, second step, the dihydrophenanthridine was treated with triethylamine (1.9 mL, 14 mmol) and 4-methoxybenzenesulfonyl chloride (0.93 g, 4.50 mmol) in dichloromethane (11 mL) according to the procedure and in the same manner as described in Example 32, Method A, Step d. The crude product was purified by re-crystallization from a mixture of ethyl acetate-hexane to yield 6-ethyl-5-[(4-methoxyphenyl)sulfonyl]-9-methyl-5,6-dihydrophenanthridine as a homogeneous, white, crystalline, solid, m.p. 133° C.;
