Procedure

A mixture of 1-(m-chlorophenoxy)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-benzazepine of Example 4 (8.0 g, 0.029 mole), chloroacetonitrile (4.4 g, 0.058 mole) and sodium bicarbonate (10 g, 0.12 mole in DMF (100 ml) was stirred at 65° C. for 2.5 hours. The mixture was concentrated to an oil which was stirred with water and extracted with ether. The organic extracts were washed twice with water and dried (saturated NaCl, anhydrous MgSO4). The solution was filtered and concentrated to an oil (8 g) which was extracted with boiling hexanes and concentrated to a light solid (5.4 g, 62%, m.p. 89°-95° C.). A solution of 1-(m-chlorophenoxy)-3-cyanomethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-benzazepine (5.1 g, 0.017 mole) in THF (50 ml) was dropped into a stirred suspension of LiAlH4 (2.6 g, 0.068 mole) in THF (100 ml). After stirring three hours at ambient temperature, the reaction mixture was cooled, diluted with ether, then quenched by dropwise addition of saturated NH4Cl. The mixture was filtered, and the organic filtrate was washed twice with water and dried (saturated NaCl, anhydrous MgSO4). The solution was filtered and concentrated to an oil (3.7 g,) which was converted using the procedure of Example 1 to the dioxalate salt (5.5 g, 65%, d 150°-155° C.). This material was twice recrystallized from a 20:1 solution of ethyl acetate/methanol to yield 3-(2-aminoethyl)-1-(m-chlorophenoxy)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-benzazepine dioxalate, d 172°-173° C.
