Reaction Steps

0.01 ml of chloroacetonitrile, 0.22 ml of triethylamine and 0.24 ml of sodium iodide were added to 50 ml of a solution of 0.7 g of 5-(2-aminoethoxy)-7-chloro-1-[2-methoxy-4-(2-chlorobenzoylamino)benzoyl]-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzoazepine dissolved in dimethylformamide. The mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was mixed with water, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate-n-hexane (10:1). The organic layer was water-washed, dried and subjected to vacuum distilation to remove the solvent. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (elutant: dichloromethane/methanol=50/1) and crystallized from acetone-n-hexane to obtain 0.5 g of 5-(2-cyanomethylaminoethoxy)-7-chloro-1-[2-methoxy-4-(2-chlorobenzoylamino)benzoyl]-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo-azepine.
