Methyl iodide → 3-Methyl-9-(phenylmethyl)-3,9-diazabicyclo[4.2.1]nonane

Participants

Reaction Steps

Neat Iodomethane (0.173 ml, 2.77 mmol) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of 9-benzyl-3,9-diazabicyclo[4.2.1]nonane (0.4 g, 1.849 mmol) and TEA (2.58 ml, 18.49 mmol) in THF (5 ml). The resultant suspension was stirred at rt for 3 hrs and diluted with ether and then filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness to afford 9-benzyl-3-methyl-3,9-diazabicyclo[4.2.1]nonane as a light yellow oil. LC/MS: m/e 231 (MH+).
