Procedure
The procedure described in Preparation 6-(2) was repeated, but using 3.7 g of 3-methanesulfonyloxyquinuclidine (prepared by the methanesulfonylation of 3-quinuclidinol), 3.0 ml of 4-methoxybenzyl mercaptan and 0.942 g of sodium hydride (as a 55% w/w suspension in mineral oil), to afford 1.74 g of the title compound as an oil.
