Procedure
3-acetyl-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine (20.0 g, 0.16 mole) was added under nitrogen to a mixture of sodium hydride (5.76 g, 0.24 mole) and dry tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) stirring at room temperature. After one hour, 1-bromo-2-ethyl hexane (33.8 g, 0.175 mole) was added dropwise over 15 minutes and the mixture stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was cautiously added to iced water (100 g) under nitrogen and extracted with diethyl ether (3×100 ml). The combined organic phase was dried over magnesium sulphate, concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue distilled to give methyl 1-(2-ethylhexyl)-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-3-pyridyl ketone (5) as a pale yellow oil (b.pt 140-142°C./0.1 mm Hg).
