Reaction Steps

3.36 g of 1-methyl-8-(methylthio)-6-phenyl-4H-s-triazolo[4,3-a][1,5]benzodiazepin-5-one and 2.14 g of sodium metaperiodate in 500 ml methanol is stirred at +5° C. for 24 hours. The reaction is evaporated; the residue dissolved in methylene chloride, washed with water, dried and concentrated. The concentrate is chromatographed on silica gel (20-1000μ plates, 20×20 cm) using acetone-methanol (9:1) as eluting solvent. The band containing the product is removed, stirred with acetone-methanol (4:1) and the silica gel filtered off. The filtrate is evaporated to give the title compound.
