CH3MgBr (25 ml of a 3.0 M solution in Et2O) was added to the reaction mixture at 0° C. The solution was allowed to warm to 25° C. and was stirred at that temperature for 18 h. The solution was partitioned between 25 wt % aqueous solution of sodium citrate and EtOAc. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc. The combined EtOAc layers were washed with brine and dried (Na2SO4). Filtration and concentration gave a yellow oil. Purification via flash chromatography (95/5 to 90/10 EtOAc/MeOH. SiO2) gave 3.7 g (79%) of the piperidino-piperidine 12 as a yellow gum.
