Procedure

460 mg of potassium nitrate are added to a solution of 797 mg of 8-(propan-2-yloxy)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzazepin-2-one in 8 ml of trifluoroacetic anhydride, cooled to −5° C. The reaction medium is stirred for 5 minutes at −5° C., brought back to pH 7 by adding a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, and then extracted with 100 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated. The residue is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, elution being carried out with a heptane/ethyl acetate (1/1) mixture, so as to obtain 489 mg of 7-nitro-8-(propan-2-yloxy)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzazepin-2-one in the form of a yellow solid. 100 mg of sodium hydride at 60% are added to a solution of 485 mg of 7-nitro-8-(propan-2-yloxy)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzazepin-2-one in 8 ml of DMF, cooled to 0° C. The reaction medium is stirred for 5 minutes and then 263 mg of iodomethane are added. The reaction medium is brought back to ambient temperature and stirred for 1 hour at this temperature. The reaction medium is poured into 100 ml of ice-cold water and the mixture is extracted with 100 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated. The residue is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, elution being carried out with a heptane/ethyl acetate (1/1) mixture, so as to obtain 318 mg of 1-methyl-7-nitro-8-(propan-2-yloxy)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzazepin-2-one in the form of a yellow solid.
