NOVEL SYNTHETIC PROCESS TO 8-CHLORO-1-METHYL-BENZO[D]AZEPINE, NOVEL INTERMEDIATES AND THE PRODUCTION THEREOF

摘要

The present invention is directed to a simple and economical process for the preparation of 8-chloro-1-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine via novel intermediates and a highly selective asymmetric synthesis leading to enantiopure (R)-8-chloro-1-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d] azepine or its (S)-enantiomer, in order to avoid or overcome chemical optical resolution.
