Acetic Acid → HCID 19752084, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The procedure is as in Example 1, but starting from 2-acetylamino-2-cyano-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane (5.8 g) in acetic acid (100 cc) and acetic anhydride (5.6 cc) in the presence of Adams platinum oxide (0.6 g); chromatographing the residue from the evaporation on a column 5.5 cm in diameter containing silica gel (200 g), eluting with a mixture of ethyl acetate and ethanol (75/25 by volume) and collecting fractions of 50 cc. The fractions between 800 and 1750 cc are concentrated to dryness; 2-acetylamino-2-acetylaminomethyl-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane (5.45 g) is thus obtained in the form of a pale yellow viscous oil.
