“…Condensation of o-bromomethylphenethyl bromide (3) with the potassium salt of N-hydroxyurethan (4) yielded 3-carbethoxy-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,3-benzoxazepine (5) which was then hydrolyzed to give 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,3-benzoxazepine (6) (Scheme 4). A series of 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,3-benzoxazepines 8 have been synthesized by a thermal transformation of 1-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline N-oxides 7.…”
