Procedure
5-Aza-6-(3-pyridyl)-tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7decan-2-one: LDA (8.0 mmol) was generated at 0° C. by adding n-BuLi (3.40 mL of 2.35 M solution in hexane, 8.0 mmol) to a solution of diisopropylamine (1.40 mL, 10.0 mmol) in dry THF (10.0 mL). The Schiff base, 2-aza-1,1-diphenyl-3-(pyridyl)prop-2-ene, formed from the reaction of 3-aminomethyl pyridine with benzophenone (2.18 g, 8.0 mmol; prepared using the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,510,355 to Bencherif et al.) was dissolved in dry THF (10.0 mL) and the solution cooled to −78° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere. LDA was then transferred to the solution of the Schiff base, using a double tipped needle under a positive nitrogen atmosphere. The resulting purple suspension was stirred for a further 45 minutes, during which time the temperature of the reaction mixture was allowed to rise to −45° C.
