Abstract
7‐Chloro‐1,3‐dihydro‐5‐(2‐fluorophenyl)‐1‐methyl‐2H‐1,4‐benzodiazepin‐2‐one (Fludiazepam) (I), an anti‐anxiety agent, was labelled with carbon‐14 at C‐5 position for metabolic studies. The reaction sequence for the synthesis is shown in Fig. 2. o‐Fluorobenzoic‐^14^C acid (IV) was prepared in 65% yield by carbonation of o‐fluorophenyllithium with carbon‐^14^C dioxide. The acid (IV) was condensed with N‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐N‐ methylethylenediamine, followed by Bischler‐Napieralski cyclization of the resulting amide with phosphorus pentoxide and phosphorus oxychloride to afford 7‐chloro‐2,3‐dihydro‐5‐(2‐fluorophenyl)‐1‐methyl‐1H‐1,4‐benzodiazepine‐5‐^14^C (VII) in good yield. Oxidation of VII by N‐bromosuccinimide in aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate gave Fludiazepam‐^14^C (I). The overall yield of I was 24% from barium carbonate‐^14^C.
