Reaction Steps

Ag2CO3 (1.63 mmol, 449 mg) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2,5,6,8,9-hexahydro-7H-pyrido[2,3-d]azepine-7-carboxylate (91.0 mg, 0.325 mmol) in DCM (1.5 ml) at room temperature. After 10 min of stirring, MeI (1.63 mmol, 106 μl) was added. After 15 h of stirring, sat. aq. NH4Cl was added and the mixture was extracted with DCM. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography to provide 72 mg (72%) of tert-butyl 2,4-dimethoxy-5,6,8,9-tetrahydro-7H-pyrido[2,3-d]azepine-7-carboxylate. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 6.02 (1H), 3.85 (3H), 3.76 (3H), 3.55 (2H), 3.48 (2H), 2.98 (2H), 2.81 (2H), 1.45 (9H) ppm. tert-Butyl 2,4-dimethoxy-5,6,8,9-tetrahydro-7H-pyrido[2,3-d]azepine-7-carboxylate (72 mg, 0.23 mmol) was dissolved in HCl (2 N in Et2O, 3 ml) and stirred for 16 h at room temperature. The hydrochloric salt of 2,4-dimethoxy-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-pyrido[2,3-d]azepine was obtained in quantitative yield. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 9.98 (br s, 2H), 6.32 (s, 1H), 3.73 (s, 3H), 3.65 (s, 3H), 3.25 (m, 2H), 2.88 (m, 2H), 2.86 (m, 2H), 2.78 (m, 2H) ppm.
