Procedure

To an ice cooled solution of 4-phenyl-1-butanol (20 g) and triethyl amine (15 g) in 200 ml of dichloromethane, a solution of methanesulfonyl chloride (12 ml) in 50 ml of dichloromethane was added dropwise. After stirring for 1h at 10 ° C. the reaction mixture was washed with water. Extraction of the water phase with dichloromethane, drying of the combined organic phases over MgSO 4 followed by removal of the volatile components in vacuo, gave 29 g of a slightly yellow oil, 4-phenyl-1-butyl methanesulfonate, which was sufficiently pure for use in the next step. A mixture of spiro[isobenzofuran-1(3H),4'-piperidine] (2 g), 4-phenyl-1-butyl methanesulfonate (6 g) and potassium carbonate (14 g) in 75 ml of 4-methyl-2-pentanone was refluxed for 20 h. After cooling the reaction mixture was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The remaining viscous oil was applied to a silica gel column (eluent: ether/methanol/triethyl amine=93:5:2) giving a colorless oil which crystallized as the fumarate salt, 2a, from acetone by addition of fumaric acid. Yield: 0.7 g, mp: 197°-99° C.
