The structure, molecular formula, molecular weight, melting point, yield and elemental analyses of the new O-(arylcarbamoyl)-11-oximino-6,11-dihydro-dibenz[b,e]oxepins are presented in
All melting points were recorded with an Electrothermal 9100 apparatus ((Bibby Scientific Ltd., Stone, UK) and are uncorrected. Elemental analyses were carried out using a CHNS/O Analyzer Series II 2400 apparatus (Perkin–Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA) and the results were within ±0.4% of theoretical values. IR spectra were recorded on a Vertex 70 FT–IR spectrophotometer (Bruker Corporation, Billerica, MA, USA). NMR spectra were recorded on a Unity Inova 400 instrument (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA, USA) operating at 400 MHz for 1H and 100 MHz for 13C. New dibenz[b,e]oxepins were synthesized according to the previously described procedure [11 ,28 ,29 ].
