Reaction Steps

The hydroxide version of N,N-diethyl-2-methyldecahydroquinolinium cation was prepared by ion exchange as described in the procedure below. To a solution of 20 gm (0.06 mol) of N,N-diethyl-2-methyldecahydroquinolinium iodide in 80 ml water, 80 gm of OH-ion exchange resin (BIO RAD® AGI-X8) was added, and the resulting mixture was allowed to gently stir at room temperature for few hours. The mixture was filtered and the ion exchange resin was rinsed with additional 30 ml water (to ensure removing all the cations from the resin). The rinse and the original filtrate were combined and titration analysis on a small sample of the filtrate with 0.1 N HCl indicated a 0.5M OH ions concentration (0.055 mol cations). Scheme 1 below depicts the synthesis of the templating agent.
