Methyl 3-oxo-hept-6-enoate is prepared e.g. by condensation of methyl acetoacetate with allyl bromide in the presence of sodium hydride. Condensation with 3-bromopyridine under conditions of a Heck condensation yields methyl 7-(3-pyridyl)-3-oxo-hept-6-enoate. Condensation thereof with e.g. 4-iodobutyronitrile in the presence of sodium hydride leads to methyl 2-(3-cyanopropyl)-7-(3-pyridyl)-3-oxo-hept-6-enoate. Decarboxylation thereof e.g. with sodium chloride in dimethylsulfoxide/water yields 10-(3-pyridyl)-6-oxo-dec-9-enenitrile. This is subjected to Wittig type condensation with triethyl phosphonoacetate followed by hydrogenation e.g. with Raney nickel catalyst in e.g. methanol/ammonia to yield ethyl 7-(3-pyridyl)-3-(5-aminopentyl)-hept-2-enoate. Further hydrogenation with Pd/C catalyst yields the amine of formula XII wherein Het represents 3-pyridyl, A represents 1,5-pentylene, B represents 1,4-butylene and M represents methylene, as the ethyl ester.
