Procedure

A solution mixture of lepidine (0.66 g, 4.65 mmol) and iodomethane (1.32 g, 9.3 mmol) in methanol (30 mL) was heated to reflux in a sealed tube overnight. After cooling to room temperature, methanol was removed under vacuum. Anhydrous acetone was added to the residue and filtered. The resulting solid was washed with acetone and dried to afford iodide 4 (1.1 g) as yellow solid in 83% yield. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.35 (d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 8.54 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 8.49 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 8.27 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 8.07 (t, J=4.8 Hz, 1H), 8.05 (d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 4.57 (s, 3H), 3.00 (s, 3H). 13C NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 158.1, 148.9, 137.6, 134.9, 129.6, 128.4, 126.8, 122.4, 119.5, 44.9, 19.6. MS (FAB) m/z Calcd for C11H12N+ 158.0. Found 158.2 [M]+.
