benzo[b,e][1,4]diazepinꢀ11ꢀyl)benzoic acid (3a). A hot solution
of 2ꢀformylbenzoic acid 2a (0.75 g, 5 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL)
was added to a hot solution of compound 1 (1.15 g, 5 mmol) in
MeOH (5 mL). The mixture was heated to boiling and cooled
with ice water, while triturating with a rod. The precipitate that
formed was filtered off, washed with cold MeOH, and dried.
The yield of compound 3a was 1.4 g (73%), colorless solid, m.p.
186—188 °C (from MeNO2) (cf. Ref. 7: m.p. 179—181 °C).

mixture was brought to boiling, the formation of a colorless crysꢀ

As expected, the H NMR spectrum of compound 3c
has a common shape with two doublets for the H(10) and
H(11) protons. This suggests that the anomalous features
in the H and 15N NMR spectra of compound 3a result
from prototropic rotation of the carboxy group about the
σꢀbond to the phenyl substituent, which brings about rapid
exchange of the proton at the N(10) atom.
