Procedure

A solution of 0.870 g (2.6 mmol) of (7SR,8aSR)-7-(4-fluorophenoxy)methyl-2-phenylmethyl-1,2,3,4,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine (Preparation 2) and 1.8 mL (8.9 mmol) of 5M aqueous ammonium formate in 50 mL methanol was treated with an aqueous slurry of 0.100 g of 10% Pd/C. The reaction was refluxed for 24 hours. The mixture was filtered and the solvent removed in vacuo to give an oily residue. The crude (7SR,8aSR)-7-(4-fluorophenoxy)methyl-1,2,3,4,6,7, 8,8a-octahydro-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine was combined with 0.373 g (2.8 mmol) of 2-chloro-5-fluoropyrimidine (Dunaiskis, A. et al., Org. Prep. Proc. Int., 1995, 27, 600-602), 0.650 g (6.1 mmol) of sodium carbonate in 50 mL of water, and the mixture was gently refluxed for 16 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was extracted with methylene chloride (3×). The combined organic layers were dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered, and evaporated. Purification by silica gel flash chromatography eluting with 85:15 ethyl acetate:hexane gave 0.444 g (50%) of the title compound.
