Procedure

To a solution of (2R,4R)-1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-4-hydroxy-2-methylpyrrolidine (1.92 g) and methanesulfonyl chloride (955 μl) in dichloromethane (30 ml) was added dropwise triethylamine (1.99 ml) at 0° C. After one hour, the reaction mixture was washed in turn with 1N-hydrochloric acid and brine and the organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate. Evaporation of the solvent gave an oil, which was chromatographed on silica gel (200 ml) eluting with a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate (1:1, V/V) to give (2R,4R)-1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-4-methanesulfonyloxy-2-methylpyrrolidine (2.49 g).
