Abstract: A simplified four- or alternatively five-step synthesis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrodibenz[c,e]azocine from phenanthrene is described. The latter was ozonolyzed to the known 3,8-dimethoxydibenzo[c,e][1,2]dioxacyclooctane, which, when treated with alkylamine and nitromethane afforded methyl 2-(2-nitroethenyl)-2'-biphenylcarboxylate. Its hydrogenation followed by cyclization at elevated temperature yielded 2-(2-aminoethyl) derivative V and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrodibenz[c,e]azocin-5-one, respectively. Reduction of the lactam ring of the substituted azocinone furnished the final product, which can alternatively be obtained directly from compound V on reaction with sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)hydridoaluminate. Conformation of the final product was deduced from1H  and 13C  NMR and UV spectral data.
