Procedure

To a solution of potassium cyanide (0.191 g, 2.86 mmol) in 1.0 ml of water was added over 20 minutes 0.284 g (1.35 mmol) of 1-azoniabicyclo[3.3.0]oct-1(5)-ene (Example 3). The mixture was stirred at 20° C. for 1 hour. To the reaction mixture was added 2 ml of water and extracted with methylene chloride (3×10 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was distilled out in vacuo to afford 171 mg (Yield: 93.3%) of the desired compound.
