Procedure

Potassium carbonate (778 mg, 5.6 mmol) was added to a stirred solution of 3-cyclobutyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepin-7-ol (E3) (868 mg, 4.0 mmol), 2,4-difluorobenzyl bromide (0.25 ml, 2.1 mmol) and potassium iodide (25 mg) in butanone (9 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at reflux for 18 hours, cooled, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude residue was dissolved with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine. The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the resulting residue by column chromatography eluting with a mixture of 0.880 ammonia:ethanol:dichloromethane (0.25:2.25:97.5 then 1:9:10) afforded the title compound (E79); MS (ES+) m/e 344 [M+H]+.
