Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution (32 ml) of heptane-2,6-dione (4.96 g, 38.7 mmol) and acetonedicarboxylic acid (10.74 g, 73.5 mmol) was injected into a sealed tube, and 27 M KOH (6 ml), an ammonium chloride (6.20 g, 116 mmol) aqueous solution (60 ml), and sodium acetate (3.81 g, 46.4 mmol) were added in order under ice-cooled condition. The mixture was then brought to pH 9 with a 1 g/ml KOH aqueous solution. The reaction liquid was stirred inside the sealed tube in the dark at room temperature for 3 days. A 10% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution was slowly dropped until the carbon dioxide gas generation went to completion, and the mixture was washed with dichloromethane. After a separation procedure, the aqueous layer was brought to basic pH with a 10% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic layer was dried over potassium carbonate, concentrated under reduced pressure, and purified by silica gel column chromatography to give 1,5-dimethyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3-one (1.84 g, 28%).
