Procedure
A 50 mL round-bottomed flask containing cyclohexanone (3.82 g, 39 mmol) in anhydrous toluene (20 mL) was fitted with a Dean-Stark trap containing 3 Å molecular sieves, reflux condenser and a heating mantle, pyrrolidine (6.00 mL) was added, and the solution heated to reflux for 18 h. The solvent was evaporated and the crude product 1-cyclohex-1-en-1-ylpyrrolidine was used directly for the next reaction. (6.0 g, 102% yield, 95% purity by HPLC). MS(ESI+): 152.3; MS(ESI−): 150.1.
