Reaktionsschritte

Tert-Butyl 3-formylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (4.75 g, 23.84 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (DCM) (20 mL). Trifluoroacetic acid (15 mL, 195 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. After concentrating acetonitrile (100 mL) was added followed by methyl 4-(bromomethyl)benzoate (6.55 g, 28.6 mmol) and potassium carbonate (16.47 g, 119 mmol). The reaction was heated to reflux for 16 hours. The mixture was filtered and concentrated. Dichloromethane (75 ml) was added and the solution was washed with water, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified via silica gel chromotography (0% to 100% EtOAc:Hex; 50 g-HP-silica gel column). Obtained 2.00 g 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 1.99-2.23 (m, 2H), 2.46-2.57 (m, 1H), 2.60-2.79 (m, 2H), 2.88-2.99 (m, 2H), 3.68 (d, J=4.29 Hz, 2H), 3.92 (s, 3H), 7.40 (d, J=8.59 Hz, 2H), 7.93-8.09 (m, 2H), 9.66 (d, J=2.02 Hz, 1H);
