Ethylene Oxide → HCID 20332942, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The mixture of 6.3 g of 3-(2-isopropylaminopropyl)-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-azepinone, 20 ml of ethylene oxide and 25 ml of absolute ethanol is stirred in a sealed vessel at room temperature for 5 days. The resulting solution is evaporated, the residue crystallized from petroleum ether and recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane, to yield the 3-[2-(N-isopropyl-N-hydroxyethylamino)-propyl]-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-azepinone melting at 109°-111°.
