2-Aza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-6-one derivatives are prepared from 5-hydroxy-2-pyridone via [4+2]-cycloaddition with phenyl vinyl sulfone as an ethylene equivalent. Complete regiospecificity is observed. The exo-endo 15 ratio of the adducts is 7:3. A four step reaction sequence affords 2-aza-6-dimethoxybicyclo[2.2.2]octane, a starting material in the synthesis of desethylibogamine.
