We have developed a solvent‐free phase‐transfer catalysis (PTC) method for the N ‐alkylation of sulfur‐substituted dihydropyridone 4a to give products 5 with varying side‐chains and functional groups. Treatment of the chlorides 5a and 5c with NaI in acetone at reflux gave high yields of the iodides 6a and 6b . The reaction of iodides 7a and 7b with t ‐BuLi at low temperature, followed by sequential treatment with HOAc and NaBH 4 , resulted in the formation of quinolizidine 8a and pyridoazepine 8b , respectively. Similar reaction of bromide 5j with t ‐BuLi gave indolizidine 11 .
