t-Butyllithium (10.6 ml of a 1.7M solution in pentane, 18 mmol) was added dropwise to a rapidly stirred solution of 2-iodopyrazine (1.86 g, 9.0 mmol) in ether (50 ml), at -45° C. After 0.25 h a solution of 1-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-3-one (1 g, 9.0 mmol) in ether (20 ml) was added dropwise and the reaction mixture warmed to room temperature and stirred for 16 h. Water (25 ml) was added and the solution stirred for 0.25 h before adding dichloromethane (150 ml) and extracting. The aqueous was extracted twice more with dichloromethane (2×150 ml). the extracts combined, dried (Na2SO4.MgSO4) and the solvent removed under vacuum. The residue was purified by chromatography through alumina, eluting with dichloromethane/methanol (93:7). Recrystallisation from ethyl acetate gave 3-(2-pyrazinyl)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-3-ol (0.51 g) as a pale yellow solid, m.p. 180°-183° C.; (Found C, 62.10; H,6.79; N,21.48.
