Abstract
A new synthetic approach for the regiospecific alkylation of the 6‐position of the tropane ring system has been developed. Alkylation, desulfonylation and deprotection of tropanes 5 and 12 furnished a series of 6‐endo‐alkyltropan‐2‐one derivatives 8a‐e, 15a‐e and 16a‐e (R = Me, Et, n‐Pr, n‐Bu, Bn) stereoselectively in good yields. The 6‐endo isomers 15a‐e and 6‐exo isomers 16a‐e were easily obtained as pure diastereoisomers.
