The mixture of 450 mg of 2-trifluoromethyl-9-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin, 0.4 g of copper cyanide, 0.05 g of anhydrous copper sulfate and 10 ml of N-methylpyrrolidone was stirred at 180° to 210° C. for 18.5 hrs. while preventing the moisture. After cooling, to the mixture was added 2.5 ml of conc. ammonia water and 35 ml of water and the resulting mixture was filtered with the use of celite. The thus obtained solution was extracted with benzene and the extract was washed with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated to obtain 0.3 g of a brown oily substance, which was chromatographed on a silica gel, eluted with n-hexane, and there was obtained 64 mg of the desired product. This was recrystallized from n-hexane to afford 2-trifluoromethyl-9-cyano-10,11 -dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin having a melting point of 113° to 114.5° C. as colorless crystals.
