Procedure
800 mg (3.36 m moles) of 2-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1-benzoxepin-5-one (compound R1 of Reference Example 1) was dissolved in 80 ml of absolute ethyl ether, and 808 mg (1.5 equivalent amount) of bromine was added to the solution dropwise over 15 minutes under ice-cooling. The reaction mixture was washed with a sodium sulfate aqueous solution followed by water, and then dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After filtrating off the magnesium sulfate, the filtrate was concentrated to obtain a residue, which was then applied to a silica gel column, and eluted with a mixture of hexane/ethyl acetate (98:2) to obtain 1.02 g (yield 95.7%) of the desired compound in a form of a diastereomer mixture (R14a and R14b, ratio 3:1).
