Procedure

A mixture of (R)-3-[[N-(2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-5-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)glycyl]amino]-1-(4-chlorobenzyl)pyrrolidine (6.3 g, 11.4 mmol) with Pd(OH)2 (1.68 g), formic acid (3.7 mL) and methanol (80 mL) was stirred at 50° C. overnight. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the palladium catalyst was then removed by filtration through Celite. The resulting filtrate was concentrated and purified by column chromatography [SiO2, ethyl acetate/methanol=(5:1) to (4:1)] to thereby provide (R)-3-[[N-(2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-5-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)glycyl]amino]pyrrolidine (4.42 g, 90%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 1.48 (s, 9H), 2.0-2.4 (m, 2H), 3.42-3.71 (m, 5H), 4.00-4.22 (m, 2H), 4.56 (br, 1H), 7.48 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 7.93 (s, 1H), 8.17 (br, 1H), 8.33 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 8.45 (br, 1H).
