Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-benzoyl-4-chloro-3-formyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine oxime (5.3 g, 20 mmol) in 100 ml dry dimethylformamide was added N-bromosuccinimide (4.5 g, 25 mmol) dissolved in 20 ml dry dimethylformamide. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. Now methylpropargylether (1.5 ml, 25 mmol) and 2 ml triethylamine was added and the reaction mixture stirred at room temperature overnight. 200 ml water was added and the aqueous phase extracted with 3×50 ml ether. The combined ether extracts were washed with 2×50 ml water, dried over magnesiumsulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The compound was finally purified by column chromatography with methylenechloride/ethylacetate 4:1 as eluent. Yield: 3.5 g. M.p. 60.5°-62° C.
