“…In this context, we have developed a simple and practical two-step synthetic route to some novel series of 6,11-dihydrodibenzo [b,e]azepines from readily available 2-allyl-N-benzylsubstituted anilines (Palma et al, 2004(Palma et al, , 2010. Continuing with our studies on the synthesis of new small and potentially bioactive molecules containing the dihydrodibenzo [b,e]aze-]azepine nucleus, we have now achieved the synthesis of the previously unknown 6,11-dihydro-5H-benzo[b,e]azepine-6-carboxamide, a potentially useful precursor in the synthesis of analogues of some drugs in current use, such as the antidepressant mianserin [systematic name: 2-methyl-1,2,3,4,10,14b- (Pawlowska et al, 2003) and the anti-allergenic and antihistaminic epinastine 3-amino-9,13b-dihydro-1H-dibenz [c,f]imidazo [1,5-a]azepine (Schneider, 1992;Jung et al, 2001).…”
