Procedure
To 4-cyclohexylbenzoic acid (2 g) is added thionyl chloride (20 ml), and the mixture is refluxed for two hours. The mixture is evaporated to remove the thionyl chloride to give 4-cyclohexylbenzoyl chloride. To a solution of 5-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-7-chloro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzazepine (2.2 g) in dichloromethane (50 ml) is added pyridine (3.3 g), and to the mixture is added with stirring the above obtained 4-cyclohexylbenzoyl chloride under ice-cooling, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight. To the reaction solution is added water, and the mixture is extracted with dichloromethane. The extract is washed with diluted hydrochloric acid, and washed with water, and dried over magnesium sulfate. The mixture is evaporated to remove the solvent, and the residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent; dichloromethane) to give 5-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-7-chloro-1-(4-cyclohexylbenzoyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzazepine (4 g) as colorless oil.
