Ciclopramine is a tetracyclic antidepressant (TeCA) that was never marketed.[1][2]
Synthesis
The reaction of 3-(10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepin-5-yl)propionic acid, CID:22390899 (1) with lewis acid in a mixture of acetic anhydride and acetic acid led to the characteristic Haworth cyclization reaction to give 1,2,7,8-tetrahydro-3H-quino[1,8-ab][1]benzazepin-3-one, CID:21853518 (2). Condensation with methylamine obviously gives a Schiff-base. The reduction of this to the secondary amine compound completed the synthesis of ciclopramine (3).
