Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 42.6 g. (0.206 mole) of 7,8-dimethoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine in 1 l. of toluene were added 35.7 ml. of triethylamine (0.256 mole) and 24.5 ml. of ethyl chloroformate (0.256 mole), at room temperature, and the mixture was refluxed for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove triethylamine hydrochloride and the filtrate was concentrated. The solid residue (57 g.) was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give 3-carboethoxy-7,8-dimethoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine, m.p. 91°-93° C.
