Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride, 60% dispersion in mineral oil (80 mg, 2.0 mmol) was added to a solution of N-(2-chlorophenyl)-4,5-dihydropyrido[4,3-b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepin-2-carboxamide (71.4 mg, 0.2 mmol) in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The mixture was stirred for 30 min and mixed with methyl iodide (0.12 mL, 2.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The mixture was mixed with 50 ml of iced water and extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The combined ethyl acetate solution was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, concentrated in vacuo, and purified on silica gel column eluting with 25% of ethylacetate in methylene chloride to give 162 (yield 50 mg, 67%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO) δ 8.57 (s, 1H), 8.25 (d, J=5.5, 1H), 7.68 (t, J=5.9, 2H), 7.60-7.50 (m, 2H), 6.98 (d, J=5.5, 1H), 6.64 (s, 1H), 4.27 (m, 2H), 3.28 (s, 3H), 2.99 (m, 2H).
