Procedure

To a solution of 137k (15.0 g, 35.4 mmol) in EtOH (100 mL) was added hydrazine hydrate (3.5 g, 70.8 mmol). See FIG. 2. The mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 2 h. After cooling the reaction to RT, the resultant precipitate was filtered and washed with ethanol. The filtrate was concentrated to give crude methyl 7,7-dimethyl-1-oxo-2,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]pyrrolizine-9-carboxylate 137l as a yellow solid.
