4.9. N-Acetyl (R)-coniine 12
In a two-necked flask equipped with a rubber septum,
an Ar inlet and a magnetic stirring bar was placed 11
(87 mg, 0.28 mmol) and anhydrous Na2HPO4 (159 mg,
1.12 mmol) in MeOH (4 mL) at −10°C under an Ar
atmosphere. Freshly prepared Na(Hg) (6%, 150 mg)
was added in one portion and the resultant mixture was
stirred at 0°C for 2 h, when total disappearance of the
starting material was seen by TLC analysis. Ice-cold
water (1 mL) was added to quench the reaction mix-
ture, which was then filtered through a pad of MgSO4
and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue
was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (30 mL), washed with brine
and dried (MgSO4). Evaporation of the solvent
afforded the crude product, which was purified by flash
column chromatography (25% EtOAc in hexane) to
afford a colorless oil of 12 as a mixture of two rotamers
(29 mg, 62%). [h]2D5 −48.6 (c 0.72, CHCl3); [an authentic

Experimental procedure was the same as in the case of

mg, 0.334 mmol), allyl bromide (48 mg, 0.4 mmol),
K2CO3 (92 mg, 0.668 mol) in DMF (4 mL) after

starting from 4 (401 mg, 1.25 mmol), allylphenylsulfone
(273 mg, 1.5 mmol), n-BuLi (1.6 M, 0.94 mL, 1.5

obtain 13 (327 mg, 52%, inseparable mixture of two
diastereomers in a 1:1.94 ratio) as the major product
after flash column chromatographic purification (14%
A similar experimental procedure was followed as in
the case of 8 to afford 16 (160 mg, 81%) as a mixture of
two rotamers from 15 (178 mg, 0.44 mmol), CH3COCl
(52 mg, 0.66 mmol) and Et3N (89 mg, 0.88 mmol) in
