Procedure

Methyl 4-bromobicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1-carboxylate (17.0 g, 69.0 mol) was refluxed in aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1500 mL, 1%) for 24 h. After cooling, the reaction solution was acidified with hydrochloric acid (6 N, 100 mL) and extracted with diethyl ether (6×500 mL). The combined ether layers were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to afford the title compound (10.4 g, 61.1 mmol, 89% yield), which was used in the next step without further purification. MS (ESI) m/z 169.2 [M+H]−.
