Reaction Steps

2-Chloro-5-iodo-N-(tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]dec-1-ylmethyl)-benzamide (5.00 g, Example 14a), tetrabutylammonium chloride (3.40 g) and sodium hydrogencarbonate (2.44 g) were charged to a flask. Pd(OAc)2 (0.0533 g), toluene (50 ml) and allyl alcohol (1.01 ml) were added to afford a pale brown mixture which was heated at 80° C. for 5 h. The resulting dark brown mixture was cooled to ambient then filtered to remove the solid residues. These were washed with further toluene (2×50 ml) and the combined toluene extracts then washed with water (100 ml), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to a light brown solid (3.82 g).
