  • Patent number: 5183903
    Abstract: This invention relates to an improved process for the preparation of 3-phenoxy-1-azetidinecarboxamides of Formula I which are useful ##STR1## in the treatment of epileptic seizures. Under Formula I, n is 1 to 3, X is H, halogen, trifluoromethyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, acetyl, or aminocarbonyl, and R is H or methyl. This process involves heating a 3-phenoxyazetidine with urea to obtain the Formula I compound. Urea is inexpensive and easily removed by washing the solid Formula I product with water.
