Procedure

3-(4-Methoxy-benzyl)-8-(3-methoxy-phenyl)-3-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octan-8-ol (1.48 g, 4.19 mmol) was dissolved in EtOAc (20 mL), charged with 2.5N HCl/EtOAc (6 mL), and azeotroped with MeOH (2×50 mL) to yield the HCl salt. This salt was slurried in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) and pyridine (0.34 mL, 4.19 mmol) then treated with thionyl chloride (0.92 mL, 12.6 mmol) dropwise, causing the dispersion to dissolve. The reaction was judged complete by TLC after 2 h, at which time it was carefully added to 1N NaOH (50 mL) at 0° C., bringing the final pH to 9. The product was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×20 mL), washed with saturated aqueous NaCl solution (1×50 mL), filtered through a cotton plug and concentrated to brown oil. Flash chromatography provided a white solid (1.31 g, 84%). (TLC 40% EtOAc/hexanes Rf 0.75); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.23 (m, 3H), 7.04 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 6.99 (s, 1H), 6.84 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 6.79 (dd, J=7.9, 2.1 Hz, 1H), 3.78 (s, 6H), 3.53 (br s, 2H), 2.95 (d, J=10.3 Hz, 2H), 2.67 (br s, 2H), 2.65 (m, 2H), 1.79 (d, J=1.0 Hz, 2H), 1.45 (m, 2H); LCMS m/z 372.2 (M+1)+; mp 99–102° C.
