Reaction Steps

A mixture of (3R*, 4R*)-N,N-diethyl-6-diphenylmethyl-5-oxo-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-3-carboxamide (10 g, 26 mmol), 1,2-bis(trimethylsiloxy)ethane (6 g, 29 mmol), trimethylsilyl chloride (20 ml) and ethylene glycol (50 ml) was heated at 100° C. for 3 hours. After by-products were removed by distillation 93° C./atmosphere pressure), the mixture was poured into cold aqueous sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) (250 ml) and extracted with methylene chloride (CH2Cl2) (100 ml) three times. The combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The clude was purified by recrystallization from ethyl acetate (EtOAc)/hexane to give 21 (1:2 mixture at 6-position; 23 mmol, 88%).
