Procedure

A mixture of 2-bromo-3-hydroxybicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-6-one (15 g), α-methylbenzyl alcohol (36 g) and p-toluene-sulphonic acid (1 g) was heated at 90° for 6 h. The solution was poured into 8% sodium bicarbonate (300 ml) and extracted with ether (4×150 ml). The combined extracts were washed with brine (300 ml), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to afford crude 2-bromo-3-(1-phenylethoxy)bicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-6-one as a pale yellow oil (29.1 g). The crude product (28.1 g) was dissolved in acetone (50 ml) and treated with morpholine (19 ml). The mixture was stirred for 3 h, poured into water (200 ml) and extracted with ether (4×150 ml). The combined extracts were washed with brine (200 ml), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The product was purified by chromatography on silica eluting with ether-petroleum ether (7:3) to give the title compound as a waxy solid (15.7 g). I.R. (CHBr3) 1745 cm-1.
