was added to pH 10. Three 20 mL extractions with ether were performed. The
organic layers were combined, dried (sodium sulfate) and concentrated. The
oily residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel with
heptane: ethyl acetate ¼ 20 : 1 to give 2.35 g of 3 as yellow viscous oil.

Synthesis of 1-Allyl-6-ethyl-3,4-dihydro-4-methylspiro[quinoline-
2,10-cycloxane] (4)
Method A. 85% Sulfuric acid (2.5 mL) was added dropwise at 08C to a
solution of 2 (1.0 g, 0.004 mol) in CHCl3 (5 mL). The resulting mixture was
heated at 80–908C for 5 h while stirring vigorously. The reaction progress
was monitored via TLC. At the end of the reaction the mixture was cooled
down to room temperature and concentrated ammonium hydroxide solution
was added to pH 10. Three 20 mL extractions with dichloromethane were
performed. The organic layers were combined, dried (sodium sulfate) and con-
centrated. The oily residue was purified by column chromatography over silica
gel with heptane: ethyl acetate ¼ 20 : 1 to give 0.98 g of 4 as pale yellow oil.

Method B. A suspension of 3 (1.0 g, 0.004 moles)) in 10 mL acetone with
allyl bromide (2.48 g, 0.020 mol) and potassium carbonate (1.70 g, 0.012 mol)
was allowed to reflux for 4 days. The reaction was monitored by TLC. The
mixture was treated with water. The products were extracted with CH2Cl2
(3 ꢀ 20 mL) Organic layer was dried (sodium sulfate) and the residue
