Reaktionsschritte

2.96 g (0.012 mole) of 70% aqueous m-chloroperbenzoic acid were added to a solution of 1.69 g (0.01 mole) of 1-t-butoxycarbonyl-3-pyrroline [prepared as described in Step (a) above] in 10 ml of chloroform, whilst ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred with ice-cooling for 8 hours and then with water-cooling for 15 hours. At the end of this time, the reaction mixture was extracted with toluene and the extract was washed, in turn, with an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate, a 0.1N aqueous solution of sodium thiosulfate and water. It was then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography eluted with a 1:5 by volume mixture of ethyl acetate and toluene, to afford 1.09 g of 1-t-butoxycarbonyl-3,4-epoxypyrrolidine as a colorless oily substance.
