A solution of cyclopropylmagnesium bromide in dry THF (prepared from cyclopropylbromide (8.0 g, 0.067 mol), magnesium turnings (1.3 g, 0.053 mol) and dry THF (35 ml)) was placed under an atmosphere of nitrogen. A solution of 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-one (6.0 g, 0.028 mol) in dry THF (15 ml) was added dropwise and when addition was complete the mixture was heated at reflux for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled on an ice-bath and saturated ammonium chloride (35 ml) was carefully added. The mixture was diluted with water (50 ml) and extracted with diethyl ether (2×50 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with water, dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent was evaporated in vacuo to give 8.6 g of crude 5-cyclopropyl-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-ol.
