For instance, ethers can be generated from these alcohols, for example, using either Mitsunobu or Williamson conditions. Thus, by way of example, when 2-((3-pyridinyl)methyl)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-ol is reacted with phenol via Mitsunobu coupling with diethylazidocarboxylate and triphenylphosphine (Guthrie et al., J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans 145: 2328 (1981)), 3-phenoxy-2-((3-pyridinyl)methyl)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane results. Similarly, when 2-((3-pyridinyl)methylene)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-ol is treated with sodium hydride and methyl iodide, the unsaturated ether, 3-methoxy-2-((3-pyridinyl)methylene)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, is formed. This gives the saturated ether, 3-methoxy-2-((3-pyridinyl)methyl)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (predominantly cis), upon catalytic hydrogenation.
