The l‐azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan‐3‐ exo ‐ol ( 2 ) was resolved by fractional crystallisation of its hydrogen tartrate salts. The enantiomers (+)‐ and (−)‐ 2 were oxidised to the ketones (−)‐ 4 and (+)‐ 4 , respectively ( Scheme ). CD spectroscopy suggested that (−)‐ 4 possesses the (1 R ,4 S )‐configuration. This absolute configuration was confirmed by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction of the derivative (+)‐(1 R ,4 R )‐3‐(1,3‐dithian‐2‐ylidene)‐1‐azabicyclo [2.2.1]‐heptane ((+)‐ 5 ).
