Abstract
Abstract The condensation reaction of malononitrile with acetone was catalyzed by variously pretreated alumina (1/4 equiv based on the amount of KF) to give a 2-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane derivative in water (in more than 90% yield). With more catalyst (1 equiv), a potassium salt of the product was formed unexpectedly. Both products released isobutylene to give the corresponding pyridine derivatives.
