Oxidation with ruthenium tetroxide of alicyclic N ‐methylamines such as pempidine (1a) , 9‐methyl‐9‐azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (2a) , and 8‐methyl‐8‐azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (3a) , in which carbon atoms linked to nitrogen are sterically hindered, leads to the N ‐formyl and N ‐demethylated derivatives. The latter, when further oxidized, give the N ‐oxides in good yields.
