Abstract: The reaction of N-methyl-3-hydroxypyridinium iodide with acrylonitrile has been studied. Under various reaction conditions, none of the desired cycloaddition product was resulted. Instead, a Michael addition product was obtained. Alternatively, the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition was achieved by the reaction of N-methyl-3-oxopyridinium betaine with acrylonitrile in THF with a high regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. This paper reports the synthesis of an intermediate 8-methyl-2-β-hydroxy-8-azabicyclo [3.2.1] octane-6-exo-carbonitrile of 6-exo-(acetyoxy)-8-azabicyclo [3.2.1]-octan-2-exo-ol. This synthetic route involves two high stereoselective steps.

Key words: 6-exo-(Acetyoxy)-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]-octan-2-exo-ol, 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition, Synthesis, 8-Methyl-2-β-hydroxy-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-6-exo-carbonitrile
