Reaction Steps

To 3-iodo-7,9-dimethoxy-10,11-dihydrodibenz[b,f]oxepin-10-one (52) (403 mg, 1.0 mmol), phenyl boronic acid (186 mg, 1.5 mmol), a 2M potassium carbonate aqueous solution (0.6 mL, 1.2 mmol) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (118 mg, 0.10 mmol) was added 5 mL of toluene and stirred at 125° C. for 19 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was neutralized with dilute hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and then with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution and dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (developing solvent; hexane:ethyl acetate=2:1) to obtain 108 mg (yield 31%) of 3-phenyl-7,9-dimethoxy-10,11-dihydrodibenz[b,f]oxepin-10-one. Demethylation reaction was carried out according to the method of Example 1 to obtain the title compound.
