Abstract

Reaction of 3e-hydroxy-1e,3a-dimethyl-6e-phenyl-4-piperidone with cyanoacetic ester affords 6e,8a-dimethyl-2-oxo-5e-phenyl-3-cyanofuro[2,3-c]piperidine, the epoxide of which undergoes intramolecular cyclization on treatment with 80% H2SO4, to give 1,2,5,6-tetrahydro-2-endo-4-dimethyl-1,5-methano-6-oxo-2-benzazocin-3-ene. It has been found that the latter is formed via the intermediate 3-hydroxy-6e,8a-dimethyl-2-oxo-5e-phenylfuro[2,3-c]piperidine.
