-68 °C

To 30 ml. of anhydrous ether was added 2.22 ml. of a 2.25M solution of butyllithium in hexane. The resulting solution was cooled to -68°C. and with stirring under a nitrogen atmosphere 1.19 g. of 4-bromo-6-methoxyquinoline was added. Immediately, a yellow suspension of 6-methoxy-4-quinolyllithium was formed. To this suspension was added within 5 minutes a solution of 1.42 g. of the crude mixture of epimeric, racemic 4,5-erythro-5-ethylquinuclidine-2ε-carboxaldehydes in 30 ml. of anhydrous ether. After the addition was completed, stirring was continued for one hour at -65°C. The reaction mixture was then poured into an ice-water slurry and extracted with dichloromethane. The dichloromethane extract was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness. The residue thus obtained was dissolved in dichloromethane and the solution was extracted twice with 2N hydrochloric acid. The acidic extract was washed with dichloromethane and then made alkaline by the addition of 6N aqueous sodium hydroxide. The free bases thus liberated were extracted into dichloromethane. The extract was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness to give crude oily product. The crude product was chromatographed on Merck F-254 silica gel preparative plates with chloroform-triethylamine-methanol (85:10:5) mixture. Elution of two separated bands gave racemic dihydroquinidine, m.p. 153°-155° and racemic dihydroquinine, m.p. 171°-172°.
