Several hydrogen-bonding receptors and polydentate ligands have been synthesized from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8-octahydroacridine (1) 1 and from 9-substituted 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8-octahydroacridines. 2 Because 1 is a valuable starting material of limited commercial availability, we have undertaken its large scale synthesis. Of the many methods for the preparation of 1, 3 the two-step process outlined in Scheme 1 was chosen on the basis of the successful large scale synthesis of 9-butyl-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8-octahydroacridine (2). 4 Currently, the most efficient methods for the synthesis of 1 require three steps (51-71% overall) 3b, d, k and involve the low melting intermediate, 2, 2′-methylenebiscyclohexanone (5)(Scheme 2). This compound and its high-melting isomer, 2-hydroxytricyclo-[7.3. 1.02, 7] tridecan-13-one (3), have also been the subject of several synthetic5 and stereochemical6 studies. Reported herein are the optimization of the synthesis of 3, its conversion to 1, and the structure of a new hexacyclic compound encountered along the way.
