Abstract
We have developed a method for synthesis of 1-methyl-4,5,7, 8-tetrahydro-6H-imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]diazepin-8-one. We have shown that in intramolecular cyclization of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)- or N-(2-chloroethyl)amides of 1-methyl-4-aminoimidazolyl-5-carboxylic acids it is not the corresponding tetrahydroimidazo[4,5-e][1,4]diazepin-8-ones which are formed but rather the isomeric 4-amino-5-(oxazolin-2-yl)imidazoles.
