“…8 Although relatively little is known about 1,3,4-triazepin-2-one conformation, similar to the amino acid component in 1,4-diazepin-2-ones, 9 the aza-phenylglycine residue of 7-chloro-3,5-diphenyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-1,3,4-benzotriazepin-2-one 5 was observed by X-ray crystallography to adopt ϕand ψ-dihedral angle values close to those of the central residue of an ideal γ-turn. 10 Since original syntheses from 2-aminobenzophenone, 4 1,3,4benzotriazepin-2-ones have been commonly prepared by cyclization of the corresponding hydrazone with a phosgene equivalent and by a one-pot annulation with a carbazate often at high temperature (e.g., 190 °C). Ring closure has also been achieved by palladium-catalyzed cyclization of aryl isocyanates and 2-haloaryl hydrazones under microwave irradiation 11 as well as condensation of anthranilic acid hydrazide with isatins, which provided the corresponding spiro[1,3,4-benzotriazepine-2,3′indole]-2′,5(1H,1′H)-diones.…”
