Reaction Steps

A mixture of spiro[1-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,3′-pyrrolidine] (50 mg, 0.3 mmol) tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (9 mg, 0.009 mmol), rac-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl (12 mg, 0.018 mmol), potassium tert-butoxide (147 mg, 1.2 mmol), and 5-bromo-3-ethoxypyridine (73 mg, 0.36 mmol) in dry toluene (5 mL) was placed in a sealed tube under argon and heated at 160° C. for 17 h. The reaction was cooled to 0° C. and the contents transferred to a 100 mL round bottom flask. The solvent was removed by rotary evaporation and the residue was dissolved in a saturated solution of NaHCO3 (10 mL) and extracted with chloroform (4×15 mL). The combined chloroform extracts were dried (K2CO3), filtered and concentrated by rotary evaporation to give a dark colored syrup. This was purified by column chromatography, using MeOH:CHCl3:NH4OH (8:2:0.01, v/v) as the eluent, to give 28 mg (27%) of 1′-(5-ethoxy-3-pyridyl)-spiro[1-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,3′-pyrrolidine] as a viscous brown oil.
