A new approach to the construction of tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepines has been developed, based upon the intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction of 2-cyano-1-azadienes. This study revealed the difficulties inherent to the direct transformation of imine-amide 2 to azadiene 3, but demonstrated the efficiency of the intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of azadiene 13 as a means to access benzodiazepines 14a,b (3 : 2 mixture; 74% combined yield).
