✦ Synopsis
A synthesis of 5-hydroxymethyl-ll-methyl-6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazole and the correspondinq 5-formvl derivative. 17-oxoellioticine.3 is described, the key feature of which-is the use of the KrohnkeI aldehyde synthesis to effect the debenzylation of a p-nitrobenzyl-pyridinium salt under mild conditions.

## Abstract 9‐Hydroxy‐ellipticine (^14^C‐1), specific activity: 2,13 mCi/mM, has been synthesized for molecular biology and cancer research, from N‐methyl‐formanilide (^14^C‐formyl). The radioactive overall yield was 13,5% based on sodium formate ^14^C.
The conformation of the title compound, C 18 H 21 N 5 , is very similar to that observed in other diaryldiazepine structures such as clozapine and clozapine dihydrobromide. NÐHÁ Á ÁH hydrogen-bond interactions result in the formation of a dimer.
