Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO, 680 mg, 6.06 mmol) in diethyl ether (20 mL) at −78° C. was added n-butyllithium (2.5M in hexanes, 3.0 mL) and stirring continued for 20 minutes. To this mixture was added 3-chloropyridine (700 mg, 6.16 mmol) as a solution in diethyl ether (5 mL). After 30 minutes, tert-butyl 4-oxo-1-piperidinecarboxylate (1.3o g, 6.52 mmol) was added as a solution in diethyl ether (1 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 2.5 hours then warmed to −50° C. and quenched with water. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature overnight. The layers were separated and the organic phase dried, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel (gradient elution with 20% to 99% ethyl acetate:hexanes) to provide the title compound (110 mg, 9% yield). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.38 (br d, 2H, J=13.7 Hz), 1.50 (s, 9H), 2.73 (ddd, 2H, J=13.1, 13.1, 5.3 Hz), 3.31 (br m, 2H), 4.09 (br m, 2H), 7.25 (m, 1H), 7.74 (dd, 1H, J=7.8, 1.3 Hz), 8.46 (dd, 1H, J=4.7, 1.6 Hz).
