Ammonia → 8-Benzyl-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane

Participants

Reaction Steps

The product of Example 1E (2.88 g, 13.3 mmol) in 40 mL THF was added via cannula to a mixture of LiAlH4 (1.52 g, 39.9 mmol) in 40 mL THF at 0° C. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stir for 2 h. The mixture was warmed to reflux and stirred for 1 h. The reaction was cooled to 0° C. then 1.5 mL H2O, 1.5 mL 15% NaOH and 4.5 mL H2O were added sequentially to quench the reaction. The material was filtered, the residue was washed with EtOAc, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and carried on directly to the next reaction. MS (DCl/NH3) m/z 203 (M+H)+.
