Abstract

The synthesis of imipramine labelled with four deuterium atoms in 10, 11 positions is described. The intermediate, trideutero‐o‐nitrotoluene was prepared by reduction of o‐nitrobenzoic acid with B~2~D~6~ followed by conversion of the resulting alcohol to the chloride and selective reduction of the chloride with NaBD~4~ in dimethyl sulfoxide. Trideutero‐o‐nitro‐toluene was then converted to tetradeutero‐2,2′‐dinitrodibenzyl by treatment with K‐tert butoxide in presence of air. The dinitro compound was reduced to a diamino compound which was then cyclized by heating its diphosphate salt, and the resulting amine on reaction with 1‐chloro‐3‐dimethylaminopropane gave tetradeuterated imipramine.
