Procedure

8-Fluoro-11-(1-ethoxycarbonyl-4-piperidylidene)-6,11-dihydro-5H-benzo[5,6]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridine (3.6 g, 9.8 mmol.) was refluxed with KOH (4.5 g) in 50 mL of ethanol/water (1:1) for 66 hours under an argon atmosphere. The reaction mixture was poured into a brine solution and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The extracts were combined and then dried over Na2SO4 and filtered. Solvent was removed to give 2.76 grams (yield=95%) of the title compound, m.p.=133.5°-134.5° C.
