Procedure

N-Benzyl-N-(2-cyanoethyl)-2,3-dimethanesulfonylpropylamine (32.25 g, 85.2 mmol) was dissolved in benzene (800 ml), cooled to -10°, and treated with sodium hexamethyldisilazide (170 ml of a 1M solution in tetrahydrofuran, 170 mmol). After 2 hours, the reaction mixture was quenched with saturated ammonium chloride solution, and the mixture was extracted three times with methylene chloride. The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatographic purification (eluant: 4:1 hexane:ethyl acetate) gave the title product as a yellow oil (8.23 g, 41.5 mmol, 49% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl ): 7.26 (m, 5H), 3.59 (s, 2H), 3.11 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H), 2.94 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H), 2.54 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H), 2.47 (dd, J=10, 4 Hz, 1H), 2.03 (m, 1H), 1.57 (m, 1H), 1.10 (dd, J=8, 5 Hz, 1H).
