Procedure

A mixture of 9.17 gm. (0.0249 mol) of 1-methyl-4-(3-bromo-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-ylidene)piperidine, 4.58 gm. (0.0498 mol) of cuprous cyanide, and 30 ml. of dry dimethylformamide is stirred and heated under reflux for 6.5 hr. To the cooled solution (25° C.) is added 54 ml. of water, 27 ml. of a saturated aqueous solution of sodium cyanide, and 75 ml. of benzene. The mixture is stirred until a two phase system is obtained. The benzene phase is removed and the aqueous phase is extracted with two 75 ml. portions of benzene. The combined benzene phases are washed with 100 ml. of aqueous 0.1M sodium cyanide, three 100 ml. portions of water, and dried over magnesium sulfate. After filtering, evaporation of the benzene gives 7.40 gm. of a crystalline residue. This material is dissolved in the minimum volume of chloroform and passed over an alumina column (15" × 1") packed in chloroform. The column is eluted with chloroform. Evaporation of the chloroform gives a crystalline product that is recrystallized from isopropyl alcohol to give pure 1-methyl-4-(3-cyano-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]-cyclohepten-5-ylidene)piperidine, m.p. 152°-154° C.
