The Horner-Emmons condensation of 3-quinuclidinone (I) with triethyl 2-fluoro-2-phosphonoacetate (II) produced the unsaturated ester (III). The amino-borane complex (IV) was then obtained by treatment of (III) with borane in THF. Ester group of (IV) reduction by means of sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminium hydride gave the allylic alcohol (V), which was converted into chloride (VI) by treatment with mesyl chloride in the presence of LiCl. Condensation of chloride (VI) with 2-hydroxycarbazole (VII) yielded ether (VIII). After acid cleavage of the amino-borane complex (VIII), the title compound was isolated as the hydrochloride salt.
