Reaktionsschritte

In a 250 ml, three-necked flask fitted with a magnetic stirrer, 1-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one x82 (15 g, 0.13 mol) is cooled to −10° C. Cold concentrated sulfuric acid (150 ml) is added dropwise. At this temperature, 1,2-dichloroethene (46.73 g, 0.482 mol) is added while the temperature is kept below 0° C. At the end of the addition the mixture is stirred at 40° C. for 2 h. Water is added and the pH is adjusted with K2CO3. The aqueous phase is extracted with CH2Cl2, the combined organic phases are dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude 2-chloro-3-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)propanal x83 is used in the next step without any further purification.
