Procedure

Compound 2-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-one (1.1 g, 8.8 mmol) in THF (10 ml) was added to a stirred suspension of sodium hydride (0.42 g, 10.6 mmol, 60%) in THF (10 ml) at 0° C. and stirred for 15 min. Benzyl bromide (1.05 ml, 8.80 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture at 0° C. and stirred for 4 h at room temperature. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated ammonium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with water, brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the crude compound. The crude compound was triturated with n-pentane to afford 900 mg (47.6%) of 2-benzyl-2-aza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-one as solid.
