PCT Patent Publication WO 94/07483, published Apr. 14, 1994, refers to benzo-fused lactam derivatives that are stated to be growth hormone release agents and are prepared in a process analogous to that described in PCT Patent Publication WO 93/15059.
PCT Patent Publication WO 94/07483, published Apr. 14, 1994, generically refers to benzo[b]azepine-2-ones, but does not refer to any specific stereoisomers of these intermediates.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the intermediate (+)-cis-(3R)-amino-8-methyl-(5R)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.
The present invention also relates to a process for preparing the diasteriomeric salt (+)-cis-(3R)-amino-8-methyl-(5R)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.cndot.(D)-(+)-dibenzoyltartarate or (-)-cis-(3S)-amino-8-methyl-(5S)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.cndot.(L)-(-)-dibenzoyltartarate, comprising reacting (D)-(+)-dibenzoyltartaric acid with either racemic or optically enriched cis-3-amino-8-methyl-5-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine-2-one, or reacting (L)-(-)-dibenzoyltartaric acid with either racemic or enantiomerically enriched cis-3-amino-8-methyl-5-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine-2-one in an organic solvent, preferably acetone or ethyl acetate.
Preferably, the diastereomeric salt (+)-cis-(3R)-amino-8-methyl-(5R)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo [b]azepine-2-one.cndot.(D)-(+)-dibenzoyltartarate or (-)-cis-(3S)-amino-8-methyl-(5S)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.cndot.(L)-(-)-dibenzoyltartarate is neutralized to form, respectively, (+)-cis-(3R)-amino-8-methyl-(5R)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one or (-)-cis-(3S)-amino-8-methyl-(5S)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.
Preferably, the diastereomeric salt (+)-cis-(3R)-amino-8-methyl-(5R)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.cndot.(D)-(+)-dibenzoyltartarate or (-)-cis-(3S)-amino-8-methyl-(5S)-phenyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[b]azepine -2-one.cndot.(L)-(-)-dibenzoyltartarate is neutralized with a base, preferably sodium hydroxide.
The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of racemic compounds of formula ##STR2## wherein X and NH.sub.2 are in the cis configuration in at least 90% of the molecules of formula Ia; (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)alkyl optionally substituted with from one to three fluorine atoms and (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)alkoxy optionally substituted with from one to three fluorine atoms; and -C.sub.8)straight or branched alkyl and (C.sub.5 -C.sub.8)cycloalkyl, wherein said phenyl may optionally be substituted with one or two substituents independently selected from the group consisting of halo, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6) alkyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)alkoxy, nitro, amino and trifluoromethyl, and wherein said (C.sub.5 -C.sub.8)cycloalkyl may optionally be substituted with one or two substituents independently selected from (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)alkyl; comprising reducing a compound of the formula ##STR3## wherein Y.sup.1, Y.sup.2 and X are defined as above, with Raney-nickel and a hydrogen source.
The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of a compound of the formula ##STR4## wherein X, Y.sup.1 and Y.sup.2 are defined as above, comprising a) reacting a compound of the formula ##STR5## wherein X, Y.sup.1 and Y.sup.2 are defined as above, with a compound of formula ##STR6## wherein L is hydroxy, chloro, --O.sub.2 COR, and R is (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)alkyl, or L is a group of the formula ##STR7## to form a compound of the formula ##STR8## wherein X, Y.sup.1 and Y.sup.2 are defined as above, in an organic solvent, preferably dichloromethane; agent, preferably dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 1-(3dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethy
