The intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization of 4‐(3‐pyridyl)butylamine ( 4a ) to yield 6,7,8,9‐tetrahydro‐5 H ‐pyrido[2,3‐ b ]azepine ( 5 ) was investigated. Of eleven different alkali metal reagents sodium, sodium hydride, sodium amide, and potassium hydride gave good yields of 5 . The sodium conditions when applied to 3‐(3‐pyridyl)propylamine ( 4b ) afforded 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐1,8‐naphthyridine ( 6 ) in good yield.
