Reaction Steps

To a round bottom flask was added 4-((1S,4R)-6-hydroxy-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)benzonitrile (329 mg, 1.535 mmol), Et3N (777 mg, 7.68 mmol) and CH2Cl2 (7.2 ml). The resulting solution was cooled to 0° C. In a separate vial, pyridine sulfur trioxide (1.22 gm, 7.68 mmol) and DMSO (2.4 gm, 30.7 mmol) were mixed until the solution turned clear. The resulting solution was then added to the reaction at 0° C. The reaction mixture was slowly warmed to rt and stirred for an additional 1 hr. After this time, the solution was diluted with CH2Cl2. The resulting solution was wash with water (2×) and saturated aqueous NaCl. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The resulting residue was purified using silica gel chromatography (ISCO system) eluting with a gradient of 0-100% EtOAc/Hex to give product 4-((1R,4S)-6-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)benzonitrile (281 mg, 1.324 mmol, 86% yield) as colorless oil. Anal. Calcd. for C13H12N2O m/z 212.2, found: 213.0 (M+H)+.
